THE TICKET:— We realize that most of our readers are acquainted with the candidates on the democratic ticket in Adams county but to refresh your memory at this time when election ■ day is approaching we wish to present them to you again: Claude C. Ball, of Muncie, is the .candidate for congress and will head the ticket. He is a lawyer, splendidly qualified and a campaigner. It elected we assure you he will serve you in an earnest and honest manner. For statC senator, representing Adams, Wells and Blackford counties. Thurman A. Gottschalk is the nomi- • nee. He has served four terms in in the legislature and will go to the senate a recognized leader. For representative of the Adams Wells district. George Saunders. He is editor of the Bluffton Banner and i is at present the senator from this district, having served during two sessions with credit. For prosecuting attorney, John T. Kelly, who is in office at present and . is seeking the usual second term. < Mr. Kelly has served as county clerk and is known to the voters of the county for his integrity and his honesty. For clerk of the Adams circuit court. John E. Nelson, whose efficiency in that office during the past several year:: has won for him many new friends and retained all his old ones. For county treasurer, Ed. A. Ashbaucher, one of the finest young men of th«’ county, qualified in every way , and deserving. His father, Peter < Ashbaucher. was sheriff of this county • I a number of years ago. For sheriff. Harl Hollingsworth, of I< jraia uuo a . I I know him best. He is a man of > personality end will run well in the coming election. , For county coroner. Dr. J. C. Grand-' I staff, one of the splendid physicians 11 of the county, and foe surveyor, Dick Boch, whose administration of the of-, lice for three terms has made him a favorite, both these candidates being unopposed. J. A. Cline is the candidate for assessor and is qualified by his services for township assessor. John C. Hoffman, of -Preble township is the candidate for commissioner, first district and B. F. Breiner or commissioner in the second district. They are both well-to-do and splendid, farmers and will look after county affairably. Mr. Breiner is at present serving his first term. The democratic candidates for, county councilmen are William Baum-' gartner, Mathias Kirsch, August Con I rad, Ernst Doerhman. Henry Eiting. 1 James Kinney and Christian Eicher, 1 unopposed and safe and careful men There is no reason under the aun why you should not vote the democratic ticket from top to bottom in the coming election. The only speech to be made in the county this campaign by the Hon. Claude C. Bail, democratic candidate 1 for congress in the eighth district will be that of next Thursday evening at Geneva and you are invited cordially to hear this splendid campaigner. Mr. Ball ts an attorney of ability, stands high in his profession at ' Muncie where he practices and is t mairihg an* earnest fight to defeat!

Representative Vestal- He is devoti Ing his time largely to Itelewiye. Randolph and Madison counties aud expects to be the winner on November 2nd. Mr. Ball Is a fluent talker and a high grade candidate. Hear him at Geneva next Thursday evening. —< Clyde Walb, the great (?) chair man of the republican state committee charged that international bankier. had sent 38,000,000 to Indiana to defeat Watson and Robinson. The silly story by the head qf the committee which is flooding the state with signs 'Beware of campaign lies” was never believed by any one in the state including himself and he was humiliated in court yesterday when the secretary In charge of some organization called council of international relations testified simply that all the fiftids so far raised was $1,200 and none of this came from Wall street. By the way, it won’t require that to defeat Watson and Robinson. We are sure the school house at Fieidlieim will be packed next Thursday'evening to hear Judge David E. Smith, of Fort Wayne, discuss the political Issues of the campaign. Judge Smith formerly lived here and everyone knows he can make a real speech on political issues. This will be hts only one this year but he happened to remark that he would like to come back to old Adams county for one meeting and so the date was arranged. A number from here will accompany him to Freidheim where Walter Wilkenson of this city will also be on the program. The Stump meeting is at 4 o'clock Monday afternoon and while we admit the hour is rather a difficult one. we arc hoping that a large number of voters will arrange to be tfcere. Mr. is a whirlwind orator who says things straight out but in a pleasing manner. He is making a hard campaign, covering every county in the state and to do that must appear several times a day. Monday afternoon at 1:30 he will address a crowd at Hartford City, speak here at four and go on to Fort Wayne for a night meeting at eight 'o’clock. We regret that Senator Robinson could not appear here yesterday for we were anxious that you hear him and compare him with Evans woollen, the democratic candidate. Robinson appeared as a witness in the investigation of political intrigue now in progress in Indianapolis. Woollen is one of the squarest. straightest. hardest thinking men of the state, capable in every way to serve you to your The i, -neral committee of the Dairy Day organization met last evening and allowed the bills and approved the report of the secretary and treasurer. The report will be published so that all may know just what was expended. The event was satisfactory to the business men of the city, to the management of the creamcry, Ito the guests, to everyone we know I of and thats fine. Senator Watson and Senator Robinson deny statements made by other witnesses in the investigation before Senator Reed's committee and the fuss goes merrily on. We confess we > don’t understand the affair but as , Will Rogers says "all we know is , what we read in the newspapers,” I and it all reads rather strange. ■ Stump will “thump" Senator WatI son on November 2nd. Hear him at the court house Monday afternoon at four o'clock. Hear Albert Stump at the court house Monday afternoon. He is com ing to tell you his position ou questions of vital importance.
