We agree with Alpha Graham, vote it straight—but be sure to get the "X” in the circle with the rooster. The county speaking campaign begins tomorrow evening aud you are invited to attend as many of the meetings as you can. Hope you all hear Albert Stump this afternoon and like him. He is a fine type of young man to be interested in politics and the hope of the state. Just another week of effort and the campaign will be over. It has not been as lively as some of those in the past but we predict a large vote and a 10l of interest in the results. You will vote next week on whether you wish the people to rule or believe in a centralized government. It ought to be easy for you to decide which you prefer. Stephenson refused to answer important questions propounded to him by Thomas 11. Adams which is not surprising for he is one “in” who wants out and is playing every card to obtain his liberty. Senator Watson has been tn congress and senate for thirty years, excepting one slicrt period and he was there then a a lobyist for the National Manufacturers Association, according to Claiis Adams, a leading republican. — " ■?- 1 i Mr. Wasmuth, of Huntington. formerly republican state chairman, is Credited with saying, “It is neither possible or desirable to win this year.” And Ed knows what he is talking about. Ed A-!teirbw dewwie s-ar.di li.it, for '. < •:■ "f Adam.- . . rnnty Is a !’■_"esi nnright. safe and I — - conservative man, who as your officer will prove not only efficient but courteous. He has been reared in this county and has had experience and education which tits him admirably for the office he seeks. Honest John Kelly is deserving of his second term as prosecutor. It has always been the rule in this comity to return an office holder for his second two-year term and the hundreds of people who know him over the county will not be swerved by manufactured rumors. A well known republican casting a straight democratic absent vo’erS ballot Saturday evening said. “I am sick and tired of all this investigating and dirty politics as it is being played by republican leaders and 1 want to vote a straight democratic ticket to show them so.” There will be thousands like him in the state this year. Just remember when you go to vote that it is costing $52,000,000 a year to operate Indiana now as compared to less than one-fourth that amount ten years ago. And of course you are helping to pay the increase one way or another. It matters not whether its in straight taxes, gasoline taxes or automobile fees or some other way, the money all comes from the people of the state. There i» certainly no reason why a democrat should not vote his ticket this year while there are numerous reasons why the republicans and in-

I dependents should Join with them. F The only way to clean up a rotten mess In the state is to clean bouse and as a former republican state chairman puts it, "Republican victory P In Indiana Is neither probable or der. sirable this year.” Take their advice, 1 vote the straight ticket this year—r, democratic. Fann lands in the United States 2 were valued at $75,000,000,000 in 1920 ® and in 1925 at $55,000,000(00. a loss ■> of twenty billion dollars to the farmJ era of this country. Something Is ) responsible forfft. STOP AND THINK. > They have fooled you over and over again and you ought to be convinced by this argument. There Is something more to this election than Just putting over a candidate, there is a principal and that is that the people have their rights returned. X_ . L —J Efforts are now being made to fasten the turmoil in republican state headquarters and the recent investiga’ions ory/the democrats but it just can't be done. More than a month before the Adams announcement was made. R. Earl Peters, state chairman, was asked to receive the testimony and use it as campaign amunition. He refused because it was a republican muss and their business to unscramble. The leaders are members of the Republican Editorial Association and others who sincerely believe that defeat this year is the only opportunity for a clean government in the future. 111 ■ ■!* From republican state headquarters are coming forth letters addressed to various individuals, to members of organizations, to this people and to that, designed to interest them in the coming election. Dozens of these have been brought to democratic headquarters by voters who declare they will not be led off by these contradictory epistles. The latest one called to our attention is addressed to ♦raveling men, contains the usual number of misstatements and includes this bit of humor: "Never before has the Republican party in Indiana been in more complete harmony than at present” - J! L. A. Graham, republican county chairman foolishly put up beside the sign "beware of campaign lies" in the window of his office Saturday afternoon another which read: —“Vote it straight, why change?” Then he happened to think about how that sounded in this county, <y some one reminded him of it and the sign was removed. However he has them and is supposed to post them over the county. The signs have beutt broadcast from state headquarters and show their desires. They want the | ....... , democrats to “split.” If you do, you play their game, stand for their winks behind your back aud lose the opportunity to help clean up Indiana and it needs cleaning as you well know. David J. Lawrence thinks the re- • publicans have a real scrap on their hands, that Robinson is probably . snowed under and that Watson has • only a bare chance; Robert Tucker > admits the chances are slim for a . ♦republican victory and the Chicago i VTribune is pessimistic. What with the row between Watson and Robinson and the administration, a differi erne of opinion from nearly every - state leader, a lack of money aud a c demoralized state organization, state 1 and federal investigations of Indiana f politics and a dozen other loads, it e looks as though the democrats should v win hands down. They will it every s one who believes in Jeffersonian doctrines will do their part the next week and on election day. o o ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ ♦ TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY ♦ t + ♦ e + From the Deity Democrat File ♦ e ♦ Twenty Year* Ago This Day. ♦ t + +♦+♦♦♦♦ + ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ Oct. 25.—Estimated that Bryan ’’ spoke to 350 000 people in Indiana dure ing the past three days. n Geneva Herald is boosting for a town hall.

Second District HENRY BITING Third District JAMES KINNEY Fourth District CHRISTIAN EICHER HEALTH BOARD PROPOSES BILLS Comprehensive Legislative Program Planned For 1927 General Assembly Indianapolis. Ind., Oct. 25. —(United Press)—One of the most comprehensive legislative programs ever attempted by the State board of health will be laid before the 1927 general assembly of the State, it was announced by Dr. William F. King, secretary of the board. The principal legislation sought by the board will be enactment of a statute authorizing creation of full-time health departments in certain counties. cities and towns, in answer to an insistent demand from many localities. Dr. King said. I The purposed measure would differ from the old Hurty bill, which failed of passage in the 1923 session, in that establishment of local health departments would be optional and not compulsory. The bill made the establishment of these departments compulsory and for this reason was -looked upon as more or less radical by members of the legislature. Another piece of needed legislature, < according to Dr. King, is a measure requiring the pasteurization of all milk ( open to human consumption. Dr. King a’so favors and will present to the 192 <’ assembly measures improving public health uursing work, establishment of an additional tuberculosis sanitarium in southern Indiana. more leeway in the sanitary en- 1 gineering department both from the standpoint of persi ncl and saiarie’, wider pub’ie health educational xorl. through maintainence of a publicitydepartment to disseminate information jon, this work and an appropriation snfticent to provide supervision and inspection of waysltle 3&d - w* iweww ** I)E\MbCKAfIOIEEfINGS' Tuesday, October 26, 7:30 Kirkland high school —Thurman A.
