Os course that doesn’t mean that we need a June freshet.

Some one suggests that state ponce carry those big guns so they can shoot bandits and bank robbers and.l highwaymen and things. Oh —we never heard of .hat. William Randolph Hearst has offered Chamberlin and Levine SIOO,OOO if they will successfully Uy back to NewYork. That may attract them but it would take considerable more to Interest most of us. The surest proof that D. C. Stephenson is not completely broke as lias been declared is the fact that he is still able to continue a legal fight." It costs money to employ an army of attorneys and fight a battle through the various couits as he is now doing. Attorney General Gilliom believes in the bona fide use of medicinal whiskey, so the only trouble is to discover just what is meant by the word medicinal and just how sick you have’ to be before you can use it in violation of the laws. Looks like rather dangerous ground for a politician to us. ' Lindy is hungry for a good American steak. He ha. been feasted and banqueted on chicken, squab, fish and other iobiiViji chat ■?.■;/.:• sick of it and when asked what he preferred as the meat course at some event to be given in this country, promptly replied, “Just make it beefsteak.’’ Over in Huntington county they are talking about a cross county concrete road and when first mentioned several mouths ago the estimated cost was $200,000. Yesterday they received an official estimate and it was $629,198.07. It would seem that at least there ought to be some explanation of the great jump and a lot of folks will wonder what the heck the seven cents is for. Remember when you was young how they used to tell you that a man was shiftless if he lived from day to day, consuming today what he earned today. Well things have changed and it is now apparently very good business not only to consume today’s earnings but io spend six months o' a year ahead. It’s probably alright but the trouble is there is likeiy to come a day for settlement. Then what? The cost of maintenance and operation of the general departments of Indiana government, which does not include outlays for permanent improvements, education and highways, has doubled since 1917 and is now $7.94 for each man, woman and child in the state. It would seem that with such an increase there would be plenty for the officials to do if they will look for waste rather than discussion of who should be exempt from the liquor. The telegraph company is urging the showering of Lindbergh with messages and the postoffice department or some one else with the same end in view is asking that the nation

I shower him with letters. He will probably never take the time or 'trouble to read them und it is evident that about the only thing about it all is that some one is taking advantage of the public feeling to do some business. It may be alright but it hardly seems sincere. What this country needs just now is more laughing. If we could have more Rill Nyes, Mark Twalns, Artomus Wards, Bill Rogers, Jim Rileys or any of the other joy spreaders, it would be better than any thing else. We are becoming too serious, worrying too much about this, that and the other. Shake it off. throw your head

back, laugh and remember that its the finest tonic for you and the best thing for others. If you wish to take up any little matter with Earl Carroll, his uuiiiber is now 24,009 in the Atlanta federal prison. Earl thought he was pulling a real stunt a year ago when he put on a party and featured a beautiful young lady who took a bath in a tub filled with champaign. He was finally convicted for perjury after giving false testimony and was sentenced to prison. He collapsed and has been i so ill since that several times it was |

feared he could not recover. A few i days ago he was carried into a prison , I cell from the hospital. It doesn’t pay j ( to be immoral. Everything is set for the arrival of Lindbergh, the lad who less than a | • month ago was unknown but who is i . now a recognized world hero. He is due in Washington tomorrow and for 1 a week will be feted and entertained. “Slim”, as he was once known among his “buddies” is being honored no! i ■ alone for his nervy drive across the Atlantic but because of the splendid j > manner in which he conducted himself when the old world was at his feet. He didn’t make a blunder and i it is claimed that his words and actions did more to reunite this conn- , try and several foreign nations more ; than any thing which has occurred 1 in ten years. — ♦ TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY ♦ ♦ * • From the Dally Democrat File ♦ ♦ Twenty Years Ago This Day. ♦ ■»• + ♦ + + + + ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦« June 10— Glen Fall appointed a teacher in Indian school at Wakonda.
