The United States senate has sixtyeight dry advocates, fifteen wets and thirteen doubtful. Wonder where Watson and Robinson are in these lists. The voters have the right to know. A little more winter today and the usual complaints. Perhaps its just as well for often when we have an early spring, the snows and frosts come along later and kill about every thing off. If the Countess of Cathcart had just thought about it and invented a fliv- [ ver or a monkey wrench or something, • just look at the free advertising she would have had. Maybe she’s not so dumb. Senator Robinson has named forty managers over the state to look after his campaign but there are those who still believe he will need four hundred forty if he gets any where in the primary and election. Whe got all the whiskey stored in the state house? We are not making accusations but we should think some ' one around the capltol would know , something about it and bet you a ■ couple of doughnuts they do if we . could get them to tell. George Remus, Cincinnati bootlegger. just released from the federal i prison at Atlanta, declares he had a ' good time, spent $27,000 while there j and “threw a lot of parties.” Os what use are prisons if those con-! fined there are to have it so easy that they speak thus upon release? Senator Taggart is on record with I the declaration that Junies M. Cox of Ohio is the one logical candidate for the democratic nomination for presi- ’ dent in 1928 and the more you think ■ it over and the better you know ( Jimmy, the more you think of the senator’s judgment. A Philadelphia man who confessed I to the murder of his sweetheart but later denied it was found guilty of second degree murder and given ten years in prison, though his crime was one of the most brutal in the annals | of American histoiy. And men who steal chickens get almost as much. You may call it justice if you want to but it looks to us like “monkey business.” The proposed Spring Revue and Better Homes Exposition to be held in this city next month has met a ready response from the business men of Decatur, we arc informed. It only remains to make the event what it ought to be to assure its success not only this year but annually for years to come. Lets all buckle *in to this and put it over with a bang that will make it that great success in every way. ! 1 The roads are thawing out and unless the greatest care is taken, the loss will be heavy, and its your loss. The more you save in breaking them up, the better it will be all aroumL Don’t try to haul heavy loads when the roads are soft. In several counties they are preventing the use of the roads for a few days at. a time and its a wise thing to do unless every body helps to take care of them by not overloading.

in the Huntington court. The fair lady weighed 597 pounds last year and was the "fat lady” In a side show 1 with one of the big circuses. There she met Sorhells who was an elephant care taker and they married. Last month the groom decided he had "too ’ much wife” and disappeared, so Icy got mad ami filed th e suit. Sorrells it Is said has returned to the brown elephants where he feels safer. Business is in a slump again over the country according to reports from various sources but it can be lifted out speedily by the right kind of thinking and acting. It takes energy, advertising, square dealing and broad thinking. Locally the conditions are very good, with every plant operating and everybody working who wants a job. The business men can make I their totals laiger than for the same i period last year by an advertising ( campaign that will attract attention. Its the surest, in fact the only stimulant worth while. The democratic district banquet at Muncie last evening was one of the best ever held there. The three , hundred tickets, the limit which could be accommodated were all snapped up and more than a hundred were turned away. The candidates for the nomination for the senatorship, several who aspire to congress from this district, leading democrats from over ! the state, took part in the program land there was enthusiasm to spare. The event was a great start for the i 1926 campaign and James Fleming. I the chairman who arranged it and 1 presided is to be congratulated. | About every thing conceivable has r i occurred at the state capitol at In- ! dianapolis during the last couple of J years. There have been shortages a plenty, rows of one kind and another, * fights and crookedness. Now Bert 5 Morgan, former prohibition administrator for Indiana, admits that 220 j cases o’ whiskey were missing the 1 last time he checked it and a eongressutm in a speech in Washington, • declared the other day that now 330 ■ rus- :> have disappeared. Beat that if 1 you can. Federal and state officials knew the liquor was being taken but net a step to prevent it, not a voice raised in protest, not a squeak that it was going on. Do you wonder there is a disregard of law? And thgy have the nerve to tell us the democrats have no issue for the campaign. If the voters of this state don’t raise a protest on next election day, they are asleep. o M " ’* K X TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY X X K X From the Daily Democrat File X 35 Twenty Yeara Ago Thia Day X K X I, v, «» a, a, a, a, a, ■ > X a, a, a.'* a, a» March 26 —Messrs.

“Your Health” This Column l» conducted by the Adame County Medlcal Society and the Indiana State Medical Association in the Interest of ths public’s health. Another Medical Triumph "Scientific medicine, the conquerot of typhoid fever, diptheria. bubonic plague, diabetes. smallpox, and yelkow fever, la on the verge of a complete victory over scarlet fever.” | Just what this statement means coming as jt does, from the Publicity Bureau of the Indiana State Medical Association, the mouthpiece for some 2700 of the loading physicians and surgeons of the state, may be appreciated when it $b recalled that 7.517 cases of scarlet fever were reported last year to the Indiana State Board of Health. I The romance of self-sacrifice and mang long years of labor against seemingly iinconquerorable odds lie back ’ of the story of the battle that medical science is fighting to overcome this disease which w often leaves its victim a life-long sufferer from Bright s . disease, heart weaknesses, severe ear troubles, and many other complications. "So thorough aixi painstaking has been the work of the profession against scarlet fever that final and complete victory is almost hi sight," says the bulletin. "Due to the severity of the disease during its attack and its frequent complications such as mastoid infections, kidney disease and heart trouble, scarlet fever long has been a dreaded enemy of mankind," continues the bulletin. "Through the centuries it had stubbornly withstood the investigations of scientific medicine, taking it sannual toll, until several years ago a child of John McCormick, of the wealthy Chicago family, died from the disease. As a result, the John McCormick Institute of Chicago was founded to make a special study of scarlet fever and other infectious diseases. Here in ,the winter of 1»24, after many years of work. Dr. pladys and Dr. C. F. Dnk ’announced the discovery and isolation of the scarlet fever germ and prepared a scarlet fever anti toxin. “This was done only through the heroism of volunteer medical students and laboratory workers who offered themselves a& iSefcjects for these experiments. The throats of these volunteers were inoculated with the suspected germ of scarlet fever and in due time, scarlet fever with all its symptoms developed. During the convalescence of these patients it was found that when serums made from the blood were introduced into the body of a patient with scarlet fever, these caused a. marked curative effect, as well as disappearance of fever and rash within a period of 24 to 48 hours. “This then led <to the artificial production of anti-toxin or serum through experiments on animals, among them the horse. At this time another great worker, Dr A. R Dochez. of C ulumbia University, working independently, also produced an anti-toxin varying iiij

I gome degree of preparation from that produced by tie Dicke “Since then many cases have been treated euccassfully throughout the country among them being many pa tients In southern Indiana and Illinois when scarlet fever broke out following the tornado last summer. After the administration of the serum the temperature of the patient tends to tall to normal, his sore throat disappears in a few days. Thus far sufficient r I number of observations have not been i’ made as to the effect of the virum in k preventing the complication that so free quontly arise from scarlet fever. I "In order to be effective, the antitoxin must be admlnisetered early in the course of the disease as in dipther- ’ ia and lockjaw. 11 i "The big work of prevention is yet j to be done. This very minute, scores ' of scientists have their eyes glued to the microscope and the test tube, searching to obtai na serum or vacI cine that not only will cure but will prevent scarlet fever. Vatccines now . are obtainable but thus far these have not undergone sufficient trial to make ny definite comment upon their value, I although several observers have reported very encouraging results.’ ’ s i —o — ’ • • r • POLITICAL CALENDAR ‘ * i * |* Political announcement* will bo • * printed in thia column on order * from candidate for $1.50 per week, ♦ ',* cash.
