March came in like a lion and is going out like a whole flock of ’em, thus proving that the old adages can not be relied on any more than the modern weather bureau. The countess ot Cathcart Is sailing tor home today, a wiser woman than when she came. Sh e was able to "put it over” on the immigration officials but not the public. Tomorrow is April Ist and weather predictions are not as pleasing to the average person, tired ot winter, as they might be. However you never can tell and it may be just an April Fool joke. It is argued that the 3.75 per cent, beer is not a beverage because it contains twenty-five per cent, solids. Say, we know a couple ot fellows who would eat a horse to get a little alcoholic thrill. The eighty-two mile gale which has raged over the country the past day or two may whisk spring into our laps even before Easter. Yesterdays storm included about everything, wind, heavy rains, snow, sleet and havoc. Fifteen spaces have been taken now for the Spring Revue and Better Homes Exposition to be put on here . next month by the Decatur Industrial . Association, assuring the project. A complete story of the plans and program will be announced in a few days and it promises to b e a very successful event. , W. E. Eickhoff has announced as a’; candidate for congress in the 12th district, one of the leading planks of his platform being ‘•modification of the Volstead law.” If he is nominated and the question becomes an issue as it probably will, the result will be more dependable than the straw votes which have been so widely conducted. Similar contests will be held in various parts of the country. Politics is warming up and there is every indication that before next November it will be go id and hot. I There will be plenty of issues, the i continued announcements from the “in" administration, to the contrary notwithstanding and they will be issues which will create argument, make men and women take off thejr coats and get into the game. Select the best candidates in the primary race and make your party the stronger to contend in the general election. Thats always good politics. Lincoln Andrews, assistant secretA ot the treasury and enforcement | officer for the Volstead act has [ recommended 3.76 per cent, alcohol malt liquor as a health beverage and' will permit its manufacture and sale under an order recently issued, it will probably be a very popular tonic and if it doesn’t work, it will no doubt be easy to get an increase in the content if the physician can show Mr. Andrews the patient needs a little more “kick.” Os course there is no particular reason why we need to stop at 3776 per cent. u 'irrs They are talking a lot these days, . especially around the state house, about a proposed state income tax law for Indiana. If the plan is to change the entire taxing system and us e the money derived from incomes to meet expenses, it may have merit.

On the other hand it it is solely and simply an additional tax, it ought to be fought to a finish. Its easy to add taxes and overhead but its always a difficult matter to get rid of them and everyone, farmer, shopman, business man and manufacturer agrees that the cost of government is rapidly arriving at a point ot saturation. Beginning tomorrow six of the old rural routes in Adams county will be abandoned and patrons on these routes will be taken care of by extending other routes. The change necessitates the changing of several hundred addresses for the Daily ! Democrat and these have been made on our mailing lists. If for any reason you fail to get your paper during the next day or two. please communicate with us at once that we may check our new lists and get them exactly right. The greatest care has been used by the carriers, postoffice officials and this office to rearrange our lists to comply with the new order and we ask your cooperation to the end that the service may not be impaired in any way. The stock markets continue to slump, which doesn't mean any thing unless there is a cause for it. Thats the serious part of it. We have felt for several years that we cannot have genuine prosperity so long as the farmer is in the “dumps” because of the non-earning possibilities on his investment. We hav e no way of telling whether the present let down I in general business is because of that or the late arrival of spring and we are hoping with the rest of the people in America that the next couple of weeks will bring about a* revival that will show that the drops on Wall street are due only to manipulation.
