He has been much in the public eye during the legislative session, attending to his own political affairs which apparently included the putting of poultices on the fevered brow of the public service commission, and being noted for a lack of any effective activity when any real remedial public service commission legislation was on hand. All in all it was a busy session for him in every way. Chairman Walb is the same man who sprang into the last campaign with a story that international bankers and Wail street were flooding the state with millions of dollars in benalf of the Democratic candidates. When Senator Reed came to Indiana to investigate Wall; could not find a Wall street million anywhere. During the closing session of the United States senate. Senator Reed reminded Sena.or Gooding that his probe of Indiana affairs came at .he suggestion of Chairman Walb, to which Senator Gooding replied, “sometimes we have fool chairmen.” To Reed's suggestion that fool chairmen should not be appointed, Gooding retorted that it happens, anyhow. Then Reed said: "That is true. I know of one instance." Surely Chairman Walb will not get the impression that they were talking about him. Nobi y would call him a fool chairman! A foe! chairman would be one who did something foolish and Chairman Walb doubtless can point to bis long record to show that he has not been guilty of a foolish act. Senator Reed must j have been talking about a different state chairman, or perhaps two other fellows.—lndianapolis News. Greatly to the disappointment of Thomas Adams, the veteran Vincennes editor who has l>een trying for a year to get an investigation of politics and public office in Indiana, into court, Arthur Gilliom, the attorney general, has decided not to pro-! ceed with his threatened libel suit. Adams would like to question a lot of folks under oath and if he ever gets the chance will spring some surprises. He would even be willing to stand for a libel suit to do that but a lot of folks who don't want thlt to happen have perhaps convinced Mr. Gilliom that his suit might be fraught with grave disclosures that might lead to some-' thing else. The Indiana state senate byway of handing out some salve to the firmer voters for next year adopted a resolution that the governor appoint a committee to investigate the condition of the farmers of Indiana and report to the next legislature in 1928. Can you imagine anything sillier? Every member of the 1927 legislature knows all about the farm conditions. Why spend any time or money to investigate? Most of the agrkuturisla will cither have his troubles licked by that time or be sold out for taxes. A niuete.cli-year-old boy found a rich Vein of gold in all unheard of spot in western Nevada two weeks ago. Today it is U city — Weepah — and is growing at the rate of a thousand a day. if the gold holds out it will become a real place within a few months for where gold is, there you will find

men and women fighting to get it and where people gather there must be stores and siiops and eating houses and sleeping places and courts and churches and schools and all the things that go to make uty a city. — President Cal Peterson is planning 1 his first monthly luncheon for the Industrial Association and should have the support of every business man and every citizen who wishes to seo his community progress. There are a hundred things to be done and the most Important thing is to get together so we can talk them over. This , meeting and all the others of the year j should be successful and will. I’ut 1 your pep back of them and see what we can do. Some folks got mad at a lawyer down south Jhe other day and that night a gang took him out and whipI ped him nearly to death. When found * the man had a revolver in his pocket and so was arrested for carrying the weapon. The men who so brutally assaulted him were never arrested, another exhibition of justice that makes men lose confidence in the structure we call government. Speaking of the legislature, the Indianapolis News has this saucy remark to put up to the voters: "None of the campaign pledges was redeemed. A headless majority rattled around in vacuity distributing favors to office-holders.” Tut, tut, you can t blame them after you boosted the election of this majority you now scold. Wasn't it some morning and didn’t it make you think that spring is around i th# corner, with both feet sticking out and the corner not so very far away? Thousands of Japanese are dead as the result of an earthquake, tidal wave and fire which struck Kyoto Monday, the biggest horror of the year so far recorded. .. . o I r *♦♦*♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ ♦ TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ From the Daily Democrat File ♦ ;♦ Twenty Years Ago This Day. ♦ ♦♦♦♦+♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ ’•(arch 10. 1907, was Sunday. ■» BIG FEATURE." * ♦ OF RADIO ♦ ♦♦♦VT++ V ♦ * ♦ ♦ * FRIDAY'S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES Copyrigh , 1927, by United Press Central standard time WJZ—New York. 454 M, and KYW, KDKA, WBZ, WHAS, WMC, WSB, WSM, 8 p. m.—Victor hour; Dusolina Giannini.

’Just THE TRAVELER

I notice when I travel forth That whether 1 go south or north Or west or east, or just between. The lights o-f little homes are seen, And I can see from every train Young faces at a window pane. The little yards have crimson flowers Which very much resemble ours, I’d swear the Boston Ivy vine Climbs up the wall the same as mine, Wher'er 1 turn, I seem to find The very joys I’ve left behind.

OH there are playthings strewn about My children leave their wagons out, 1 see the women at the door And know just what they're looking for, Wherever can the youngsters be, 'Tls time that they were home for tea. And dav and night, wher’er I roam I see the little lights of home, 1 sec the children at their play And, Oh, I envy them who stay And it beside their window panes And do not have to ride on trains.

' bro id niuef include the week of the .'convention. Early certificates issued went to a number of Legiouaires who desire to travel or study abroad before the convention c nvenes. A number of the "advance guaid” sail this week. The identification certificate is protected by a blue leather case stamped with a gold legion seal, and greatly resembles aa ordinary passport. The paper carrying the identification infoi mation and the pic.ira of the beared is lithograph paper, stamped with thousands of tiny legion emblems as protection against counteri feit or forgery. “1 urge that, the rank and file n the I Legion realize the necessity of acting quickly in cider to insure a place in I the gieatest convention ever held.” Savage concluded. —o — Get the Habit —Trade at Home, It Pays Overdoing? Hurry,Worry an J Overwork Bring Heavy Strain. MODERN life throws a heavy burden on our bodily machinery. The eliminative organs, especially the kidneys, are apt to become sluggish. Retention of excess uric acid and other poisonous waste often gives rise to a dull, languid feeling and, sometimes, toxic backaches and headaches. That the kidneys are not functioning perfectly is often shown by burning or scanty passage of secretions. Mere and more people are learning to assist their kidneys by the occasional use of Doan’s Pills —a stimulant diuretic. Ask your neighbor!

POTATOES ARE VALUABLE CHOP C r o p, Properly Produced And Marketed. Wor t h Much In Northern Indiana Lafayette, Ind., Mar. 10—(United Press)—Potatoes. properly produced and marketed, will add a half million dollars to the annual income of northern Indiana farmers, according to in- [ formation released today at the Purdue University Agricultural Experiment station here. The information was gathered in research work conducted by M. H. Overton, of the farm management department of Purdue University. Information gathered for the three year period, 1923 to 1925, showed that on (he same farms corn yielded an average of 39 bushels per acre in comparison with 115 bushels for early potatoes. During the five year period, 1921 to 1(*25, the average price paid for corn at live northern Indiana elevators was 6t> cents per bushel in comparison with $1.33 per bushel for tarly potatoes on the Chicago market from the middle of July to (he last of August. Farmers would incur cash expenses Guarantees “Allenrhu” To Ease Rheumatic Pains, Twinges, or Money Back Starts Its Good Work Within Twenty-four Hours Ho'thonse Drug Co., and every druggist :<n this county is authorized to say to every rheumatic sufferer that if the first pint bottle of Allenrhu. the enemy of rheumatism, does not ease the agony, reduce swollen joints and do away with even the slightest twinge of rheumatic pain, he will gladly return your money without comment. Allenrhu usually relieves at once. Immediately after you start to take t the good work begins. It searches out and drives the rheumatic poison out of the body through the kidneys and bowels. Druggists everywhere guarantee it as above in every instance.
