His home was at Burlington, Vermont, where he gained fame as a man of worth in his own name, serving as minister to Great Britain and secretary of war. That Dan Moody is a Regular politician evidently for he scooped up the Ferguson and anti-Ferguson votes in Texas and left no doubts as to his nomination for governor. “Ma' has boasted much about her ability as a housekeeper and they seem to have accepted her proposition that if they didn't want her »<> serve longer she would go home and do the cooking. / Twice successively the proprietor and orchestra at Adelphia Gardens, > near Hartford City, have been arrest- - ed and the case dismissed upen I \\don t know bow t hey feel ov< r I there but it begins to look from here I as though the officers do not agree I with those who file the affidavits that I Sunday dancing is a crime. I The state library is making an ap- I peal for diaries of Civil war soldiers I who were natives of Indiana, and for. I diaries or letters from Forty-niners, I also Hoosiers. Very recently two I Civil war diaries have come to light I —one kept through the entire period I of war—both of which shed consider- I able light on the conditions of the I period. The action of the police in order- I ing two beggars to move on to an- | other town deserves commendation. One of the nuisances and one which we don't understand in a country like this, is crippled, blind and lame beg- | gars who travel from town to town' grafting off the public. We believe ’ the police will find it popular if they! urge them all to travel on to other , fields, in every county taxes are paid, to take <are of those unfortunates' who need such care and there Is no need for extending financial aid to these wanderers, many of whom be-1 come wealthy at the game. In another month the big political campaign will be on and it Is an Important one, at which time you will vote your approval or disapproval of the present regime, of unequal rights to farmers and working men as compared to those protected under laws of the nation. You should be thinking about it seriously now. This is a

democratic county because a majority p of our people believe In the rights of citizenship as set down in the platforms written since the days of Thomas Jefferson. We believe they , will vote such a decided majority this '■ year as to leave no doubt in the ' minds of the people elsewhere as to , how they feel. The county chairman and the committeemen should have your assistance and cooperation In • making this a campaign of the people I tor the people. The Daily Democrat is Indebted to ■he Bank of Manhattan company, New York, for a most interesting little booklet concerning the importance of the newspaper. The booklet deals with the newspaper as an economic factor. It begins with telling of a strike a few years ago when NewYork went without newspapers for several days. It was the first time In centuries. Business was paralyzed, millions of dollars were lost. People went about the streets,in a dazed con I dition. All they knew of happenings I was what they saw before them. They were gloomy and cold. Business was depressed. The “pep" and enthusiasm ' was gone out of life. Rumors were ■everywhere, and there was no way to prove or disprove them. The booklet traces the newspaper in the development jf modern invention. The automobile and radio are mentioned. Newspapers, inventions created, begin to tell about them. Advertising creates a market, and thousands of 'advertised manufactured articles are sold. The importance of newspapers may become better appreciated from 'the knowledge that the combined circulation of the country's 13.400 news-
