Old 1927 passed out on the wlnge of a raging idUzard and the infant '2B, clad iu smiles and shivers, came smiling in as the bells and whistles announced the event. in 1 ■ ■ ■ Its all before you folks, a whole year in which to accomplish things worth while. Will you? Here's a great community with every opportunity to step out ahead and whether we will or not is largely up to us. Governor Small has called a special session of the Illinois legislature for the purpose of enacting a new pri-' mary iaw which will stand the court test and provide some relief for a number of condition which have existed thero several years. Governor Jackson's New Year message sounded more like a whine than 1 anything else. He regrets that his indictment has caused the people to forget the good acts of his administration but thats the way in this ' world. A few days ago we heard many i complaining about the rainy weather i and the unseasonable conditions. . Now that we have zero temperature I and indications for an old-fashioned ; winter, there seems to be just about, J as many objections. j Mrs. Evangeline Lindbergh did not fly over Decatur on her trip back to Detroit, though that was her plans. Instead her plane got off the regular 1 route and was forced by the storm to I, a landing near Whiting, Indiana, Saturday afternoou. 1 It looks us though the folks in charge down in Indianapolis are try- i ing to use the truant officer’s job in Adams county as a political football, , ( but we doubt if they can put it over with the board of education, which is ninety-five per cent democratic. — It might be well to proceed with the trial and the punishment of William Edward Hickman and then investigate his career of crime. Its a sure thing they have enough on him and wo don't see much use in digging up any more. Frank Ball, of Muncie, too wise to bu caught iu the net, has declined to be a candidate for governor and now they arc turning to Jesse Eschbach, of Fort Wayue, who will also very probably be wise enough to inform Watson and the others that ho is too busy to thus engage. While It is not probable that arrests will be made prior to February first If you haven't the, 1928 license Plates on your car, there is no advantage in waiting for you have to have them sooner or later and might as well get. them now and avoid the big rush which always comus at the last minute. Senator Jim Watson is conferring in Chicago regarding his contemplated entrance, into the presidential race and in the meantime is called to appear before tho Marion county grand Jury where they are investigating political corruption of one kind and .mother, which Is not a very good start for a candidate, so its not sur-

prising that he is having some dlfflf culty making up his mind Walter Myers, well-known Indianapolis attorney, announces today as ' a candidate for seantor, opposing Alt bert Stump, also an Indianapolis lawyer. Mr. Myers Is a capable and ' vigorous campaigner and the contest I between he and Mr. Stump, likewise j at home on the platform, should be ) one of the features of the coming priJ mary. i We don't beiieve you want to do 1 without the Daily Democrat this year * for it will be filled with many columns of interesting news. The year will bring elections, primaries, congress, conventions, the usual number of unusual events here and elsewhere and you will want to read of them. We ire planning to give you every item as soon as we can get it to you. Renew during this month when we are celebrating our 25th anniversary in the daily field. Clyde Walb, republican state chairman and political leader was indicted Saturday by the federal grand jury and with V. D. Weaver, former president of the Lagrange National bank must answer charges of violating the federal banking laws. Serious, of course, for when the government grand jury returns an indictment they usually have the proof. Mr. Walb seems to have been another of those ' who forgot that a public office was a I place for service to the people more , than to self and in his desires for bus- < iness achievement stepped over the bounds. F— . ' . ".' Louies Kline today concluded four years as treasurer of Adams county and retired with honor. It is a worthI while record to have served in an ' office of such responsibility, to have handled several million dollars and to receive a “well done" report from the state accountants. Mr. Kline has j been honest and faithful and retires wit : the congratulations of the people ! he has served. Edward Ashbaucher wh i -eds him is a splendid young ma with every qualification to serve efficiently and starts his term with the well wishes of the citizens of Adams county. o ************* * BIG FEATURES * * OF RADIO * £***********£ TUESDAY’S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES • (Copyright 1928 by United Press) WEAF, hook-up, 8: U 0 — Everready , Hour.
