With the speed limit on country roads increased to forty miles an hour, the fellow who travels at a sixty gait can more easily testify that he was not exceeding the limit. China with her hundreds of million of people has only a hundred and six moving picture shows, a splendid opening it would seem for enterprising young men who wish to lose their heads. According to Robert G. Tucker, well known political writer, about every member of the Indiana house and senate and a lot of other fellows are and were during the session, candidates for governor. That explains it some. Indiana crooks must have quite a powerful organization or why would it be necessary to raise the dividing ' line for petit and grand larceny to ' $1(10? There are some things so difficult to understand. Congratulations Fort Wayne Tigers, you made a good fight and you won the sectional. You deserve to go to the cow barns and the best wishes of the fans of Adams county will go with you. We are hoping you upset all the dope buckets and bring home the bacon. Mr. Merchant, it pays to advertise and right now is the time to start your spring campaign. Tell the folks what you have while its new and don't < hold your goods over until the season 1 is so short that the customers feels 1 I he can get along without it. Step on the gas, spring is at hand, lets go. The governor has re'”sed to sign 1 thirty-three bills whicn passed the legislature the last day of the session. , This is equivalent to a veto and the bills are dead. The list included the I bill to provide deputies in the county ! recorder offices, the barber bill and ' the beauty parlor act, raising require- | ments for admission to the bar and others of considerable importance. t I Alright, Yellow Jackets, we are proud of you. While you did not win ' the honors of the sectional meet, you , are entitled to much credit for you played the winners and held them to a close score, making them earn every ' basket. You played clean and you played well and if you had been lucky enough to have had a better break you 4 could have captured the district title, t We have big hopes for next year and every fan will back you, Coach Curtis and Jackets. The Commodores are off for Chicago tomorrow and will again be among the fast ones to take part in the national tournament. This is the third consecutive appearance of the > team in that tourney and their skill is well known among the sports who follow the game. In each of the pre- ’ vious tourneys the Decatur team has reached the semi-finals. We believe they have as j-ood a, team this year < and that they have a splendid»chance to win the title. Here's hoping boys. “ = According to Charles D. Hilles, of New York, vice-cuaii man of the national committee and a close adviser with President Coolidge, it there can be such a thing, the president is tired of his job and will not J be a candidate unless he feels it is 1 necessary "to save bis party or his country" and we notice he puts his

party first. Wonder if his refusal to 1 sign the McNary-Haugen bill had any thing to do with his change of mind. Sonfe times a candidate hears a re- | port from such things mighty speedIlly and the president is too wise to try it again it he thinks there is a chance to lose. The next step for the impeachment of Judge Dearth, of Muncie, opened in the supreme court today, where the very unusual proceeding of testing a case before the trial is heard will be watched with Inteerst by the .citizens of this state and several million other good American citizens. The legislature adopted a resolution impeaching the judge who had been accused of various misdeeds. Under a statute of 1897 this provided that the state senate hear the evidence and return a verdict. Attorney General Gilliom held the law unconstitutional and Governor Jackson for some reason or other has refused to appoint a successor to the judge. Now the supreme court will pass on it and if they find the law valid, we presume the judge will either resign or the case before the senate will proceed. We have certainly been getting into some ugly messes in Indiana the past few years. Os tlie 319 bills parsed by the late lamented legislature, sixty-six were for increased salaries or for some other method of spending the money of the tax payers and a thirty cent state levy is predicted for this year to meet she wild spending orgy. While it may be argued that this is due to the individuals who made up the assembly, the political party in power cannot escape the blame for it or for the other foolish laws enacted. They had a working majority in each house ami the entire state administration. There is no reason under the sun why they should not be held responsible as they should be given the credit for any good legislation they may have passed. In stale and national law making there has come to be entirely too much personal politics and the voters l of this state and nation, should it seems to us, soon begin to learn the lesson. You can correct it in next years election if you will and you v ill if you will honestly think it over. — 0 — *+++++++*♦****** * TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY + + From the Daily Democrat File + * Twenty Years Ago This Day. ♦ ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦•♦♦♦ March 14—Twenty-five more pledges | taken for the booster lot sale on the 26th.

CAPITOL DESERTED Congress Turns Building Over To The Tourists Washington, March 11. — (United Press) —Congress lias gone home for nine months rest and turned the capital over to the tourists again. Historic chambers, where a few days ago, statesmen bustled, page boys scurried, and all was activity, now pre dark and silent. Only the unending line of tourists, who beseige Washington every spring and summer, are now seen in these corridors. Th. senate chatnper is vacant and but one gallery door remains open to admit sightseeing visitors who may lr „r guides describe to them the turbulence which visits tlie chamber sometimes when the senate is in session. The big House chamber is deserted too. > A few senators and representatives ' have remained in town to clean up their desks before going back home, but ti n majority left the day congress adjourned. Most of the offices are being manned by clerks and stenographers to care for claimants from back home and constituents seeking passports and what nots from the government. Unless President Coolidge is forced to call an extra session of the new congress, this will be the placid scene at the capitol for nine months until the first Monday of next Deceiver when congress will convene by order of the constitution. The supreme court chambers in the center of the building are the only rooms displaying any official activity. The court does not adjourn with congress but quietly works in its own way and furnishes little noise or excitement. o Believe Grave Os Pocohontas Located Near Gravesend, EnR. London (United Press) —Discovery of human bones during excavation work near the White Post lan , Gravesend, has given rise to the suggestion that the grave of Pocahontas may at last have been found. The site of the inn was formerly a burial ground. Pocahontas, the heroine of school children in England as well as in America, died at Gravesend in March 1617, as she was about to sail for Vlrviniu witli her husband, John Rolph. She was then only 22, and had been in England for seven months. She was buried in “ye Chauncell" of St. George church. Many attempts have been made to locate the grave of the celebrated Indian princess, but so far all have failed. It is now supposed that her remains lie where the excavations are being made. If her grave can be Identified a dispute will almost certainly arise for possession of the remains. A few years ago a group iff Americans hunted for the grave with tlie hope of being able to carry the remains back to Virginia, hut it is highly doubtful if tlie authorities would permit tills transfer. Virginia could have no legal claim over the remains of the wife of an Englishman, and the English love the story of Pocahontas. While she was in England Captain ICLERR COMPLEXION Ruddy checks-srarkltnccyer—mor t women can have. Dr. F. M. for 20 years treated scores ol women for liver and bowel ailments.

I I John Smith petitioned Queen Anne on I her behalf in gratitude for tlie Indian I girl's act of saving his life. “IN LOVE WITH LOVE” IS LIVELY COMEDY Miss Frances Hall, leading woman of the Wright Players, has another of those roles in which she has proven so adept in this week's attraction at the Majestic Theater, Fort Wayne. “In Love With Love”, gives her an opportunity for excellent dramatic work, comedy reigning throughout the fast three acts of the play. Miss Hall appears as Ann Jordan, American flapper, who loves to love. She flits from one youth to another, imagining herself deeply in love witli each in turn. , She becomes engaged to one man, breaks his engagement to accept ano:her and finds, during this engagement, that she is really in love witli a third, who apparently cares nothing] for her. The comedy situations are many | and the action is fast throughout. Miss Hall appears in' some excellent scenes and is on the stage practically continuously, the part being one of the heaviest she has carried in Fort Wayne. The usual high standard of stage presentation marks the attraction. Arthur Kohl, Philip Brandon, Truman Quevli and others of the company have gootl roles. Bargain matinees will be given Wednesday and Saturday. Early seat reservations are urged because of the large attendance at all performances. Itx

Wife Suing For Divorce Charges Existence Ol Some 3,000 Correspondents Vienna (United _ Press)-Three thousand possible though unnamed correspondents were suggested by the wife of a variety theatre director to a divorce court judge here as one reason why she thought she is entitled to a divorce. "My husband habitually gives too much attention to the actresses cm ployed by him." tlie wife charged. He always comes home late at night, often quite drunk, almost every day he lies' in bed till almost noon in order to recover from the previous night’s debauches. Such behavior on his part is , having a bad effect on my children. Therefore I want a divorce." When asked by tlie judge for his side of the argument the theatre dlr ector replied, “Your Honor, 1 am a victim of my profession. The women with who I am compelled to deal are temperamental and must be handled diplomatically. Most of them are very charming; and who can lie expected to treat charming women in a cold lusiness way." "With how many women have you , had dealings during your inisinoss [ I career,” the judge asked. "Approximately 3,000, Your Honor. ' '

“And did you make love to all of them?" • No, Sir, but it was necessary, of course, to net toward each of them In ' that way which her disposition ant. temperament demanded. This Is one 1 of the fundamental requirement* for success us a theatrical director.” "A peculiar case which requires further investigation,'' the judge remarked ns he ordered the case postponed.
