Well, whats the matter with this weather? Looks to us like we hud finally convinced the man in charge of that department that April furnished enough snow, rain and cold for the entire spring. Watson and Robinson were the win- * ners for the nomination for United States senator on the republican , ticket. Evans Woolen will take care , of Mr. Robinson Hut it will remain for : the democratic state convention in June to decide which of the several j i able candidates for the long term will trim Mr. Watson. i The democratic organisation in the j ] south part of the county will prove a | great aid if they continue their ea-', thusiasm of the present through the campaign will we are spre. , We hope you keep it up folks. Lets | make it a good one and then lets have ( one that takes in the whole county. | t Come on folks and smile. Just ] think what is going on. One of the ( finest golf courses and country clubs ( in the entire middle west is being ( constructed, not just talked about but ( actually built right now, uud tight in . our door yard, beginning at the south , city limits and | before you know it, the old town will be a visiting place . for hundreds of people. Take a ride 4 or a walk out to tile grounds near the < Snow or the Lutz homes and you may be surprised at the activities which have started there while a lot of 1 people were fussing around about politics anil “aich” things. The Better Homes Exposition to be held here the week of the 17th will • be just what its name implies, a show . of those articles which go to make a more convenient home anil its go-, ing to h t . worth attending we assure you. Those in c(large are working hard and you will enjoy every minute of this entertainment.

Remember also that those who are trying to create discord are really not friends to the democratic party hut those who prefer to see it broken in two or three factions. The old democratic party is needed now to fight for tile people and we urge every friend to get buck of it and assist in forming such an organization that will make attack against it in Adams county impossible. Thats the way to show your real democracy. The ticket as selected is a splendid one. composed of qualified citizens whom you ought to support enthusiastically. Lets se e how big a majority we can roll up next November. The postofflee appropriation bill carrying $165,000,000 passed the senate yesterday and that sum will be expended in the building of postof flees and structures for federal use. In the Elliot hill as originally filed! the sum of $125,000 was allotted to Decatur, the only county seat in the eighth district which does not have a government building. Later the bill was amended so that the power to select the location of buildings from the fund was left to Secretary Mellon and Postmaster New. During tlie past few days efforts to change that ruling some were made hut however it did pass and whatever is to l. done to let the authorities know that Decatur wants a building and needs one if th e other ejties this size do, should be done by those here who can get to Mr. New, Senator Watson, Congressman Vestal and others through whom we should act. Don t pass Cfl tills opportunity. It may bo years before it comes again. o —■ Big Features Os * • RADIO * FRIDAY’S TEN BEST RADIO FEATURES (Copyright 1926 by United Pressl Central standard time throughout WCAU, Philadelphia, 27SM, 6 p, in Arezoni, operettic tenor.

records of the state industrial board showed today. | ‘ Since t>e beginning: of the present fiscal year on the first of last October there have been but two boiler -explosions in the state. 1 In one of the explosions no one was injured when the boiler of a Fort Wayne factory blew tip. The second explosion, at a small mine n,eai» Clay City .cost the life of the person operating the boiler. No inspection had been made of the second boiler because it had not been reported as being operated in accordi ance with the state law. I During the fiscal year* ending last ! September, there were three explosions with one fatality in the state, t These figures according to James Wood, chief boiler inspector of the industrial board, show a tremendous reduction over the toll of dead and injured from boiler explosions prior to 1915, when the present laws took effect. The Indiana law, lie said, is one of the best on the statute books of any state. Wood believes there is one weakness in the law, however, in the section permitting engineers with ten years' experience any boiler maker with five years’ experience to inspect and report on their own boilers. o Wc have a car load of fertilizer for flowers, lawn, truck and corn.
