OhlcMro Guess this was a pretty tine day, wasn’t it? And we are going to have a lot ptoro of them,before the season is ojer, so keep on smiling and trying. Become a member of the Benjamin Franklin highway association. it only costs a dollar and its organized to fight to secure a trunk road through this county. Surely its worth that amount to you to do this. You don't need to go away to see a peony show. Take a drive over this city and county and you will find hundreds of yards, beautified with peonies, roses, all kinds of flowers and shrubs and they never were as beautiful as this year. We must be getting better. Mayor Walker, of New York, has issued an order that night life must cease in I the big city at three o’clock in the morning, instead of continuing until after day light. Cabarets must close at that hour and failure to do so means a big fine and a year in jail according to the new ordinance. Plans are now under way for the organization of a country club to work with those who are building the magnificent place just south of town.- Its a rare opportunity and no one who lives here or can in any way avail themselves of the advantages of such a place, can afford to remain out of such a club. ———■—— Decatur industries are going along nicely, running full time and with orders coming in steadily, indicating a splendid season. There is more bnildng gioing on than in several years including two or three business blocks, all of which goes to prove that we are progressing. Keep it up folks. According to Wayne B. Wheeler, a number of United States senators and congressmen receive good pay for their prohibition speeches and the list includes Senator Robinson of Indiana. That may be alright but it takes a lot of the effect out of it. People like to believe that men are fighting for a principle because they Believe in it and not for the pay check. Friends of Arthur Sapp, of Huntington. who was defeated yesterday in his race for president of RotaryInternational were genuinely disappointed. Mr. Sapp is one of the fine, upstanding men of the middle west, in every way fitted for the high honor he sought and with all due respect to Mr. Rogers, of Texas, his Indiana admirers believed him the best man for the place. Thirty-three days after three young negroes had killed a respected colored couple while they slept, were convicted and sentenced in a Fort Wayne court. The sheriff and his deputies loaded them into cars and took them to Michigan City where they bpgan life terms. Thats the speed that is needed in this country and the authorities are to be congratulated. The one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence will occur on July 4th, making it a wonderful day for a patriotic celebration. Arrangenv.nts are being made for a big program at Bellnjent park. If you have any suggestion that will help- to make

it more interesting, speak to Mr [* Williamson who is in charge und be will sec that it Is added. One difficulty in adjusting the I arm relief measures in congress is • the fact that eastern men realize the unjust effect of the high tariff on the farmer and don’t want to give it up. The people of this country however B realize that the high tariff wall is 1 forcing farmers and others to pay • millions in tribute to the trust barons and have determined it must cease. It looks like the same old fight of 1908 and 1912. • ■ Now conies the final rush, always dangerous. Congress has fixed June 26th, one week from tomorrow, as the date for adjournment. They will grit their teeth, probably defeat the Haugen-McNary bill for farm relief, put through a few matters that have been purposely left for the final Jam and then go fishing until September when they will take the stump to explain matters to a dissatisfied and awaiting electorate. Carl McGee, fighting editor of the Scripps-Howard paper at Las Vegas, New Mexico, was cleared and acquit* ted on a charge of murder in court there yesterday. McGee had cleaned up a lot of rotten situations in that section and his foes w»re after him. Attacked by an ex-judge whd knocked him down. McGee fired a shot which killed one of his friends and he was arrested for murder. The court held that the state had not made a ease and instructed the jury to re- i turn a verdict of acquittal before the defense had offered any evidence. . o — ekksrkrrrskk KKHII * 5 • TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY B 4 From the Dally Democrat File ■ 4 Twenty Yeare Ago Thia Day 8 ’g55»g|gSIHH«»li«RK June 18—First Fort Wayne A Springfield passenger car arrived here , from Niles, Michigan, over the Eric*.
