Backers of Watson and Hoover arc quarreling about who spent the most money. Shucks, its the votes that count any way. Let there be no delay in the filing of charges and the hearing of Myers, the man who attempted to shoot Sheriff Hollingsworth. At best he is an undesirable citizen for whom there should be no silly sentiment. Congress doesn't seem to pay much attention to the desires of the president at times at least. Yesterday they almost unanimously passed over Mr. Coolidge's veto the Sproul-Moses bill to increase the wages of night postal workers ten per cent. Now what will they do with the HaugenMcNary bill, for farm relief? The merchants of Decatur need an old-fashioned advertising campaign to stimulate business. It will work just as sure as you do it. The summer season is at hand, nearly every body needs wearing apparel and summer goods of some kind. They will buy if you invite them and tell them what you have. Put a little pep In the ' campaign and you will be pleased with the results. There is no reason for any thing but cheerfulness in Decatur. With I every factory running full time or i more, with considerable building go ing on, with practically no empty houses and with several new projects afoot, every citizen here should be planning how to go ahead. Thats what makes a prosperous community, every body doing what they can to keep things moving in a business way. A ten. or fifteen cornered scrap is on at Indianapolis where the republicans are holding their state convention. Leaders like Watson declare they will have nothing to do with it and we don't blafne them. Any body who mixes up in such a fracas is liable
to cQine out with a bloody nose and |1 41 bljti k eye. Almost certainly any harimmy dished out after its over will be of that cheap veneer which ' easily peels off. Boston will celebrate bey three hundredth birthday in 1930, and preparations to make it a real affair have been started. Originally it was known at Bostontown and tire first settler was William Blackstone. In no city in America will be found more interesting history and the pageant to be given summer after next should be of sufficient interest to attraat many ; even outside the New England dis- I trict. ■ ■ J. Pierpont Morgan, whose wealth 1 is estimated in the hundreds of mil- i lions is serving on the grand jury at . Mineola, New York. He was ready to leave for Europe when summoned several months ago but returned to , show his good citizenship and is smilingly doing his duty which is right of course. Because a man has plenty of money is no reason why he should not answer the same call to serve his county and state as the man of ordinary means. The closing of the Bay piano factory at Bluffton is another severe blow for that splendid city which has
Imm'h having more than her share the l*ast two or three years. Several hundred men are thrown out of employment and were not even paid for the last two weeks they had worked, ■jit la hoped the receiver will see his way dear to opening the mill and I continuing it until it can be retinanc- ' ed or that failing that a new‘industry ' can be"* secured to occupy the large buildings and rcemploy the men. There are about five billion pennies in circulation in the United States and while we often make fun of this specie of coin they seem to be quite I necessary. Many of them are used in the purchase of newspapers and one concern, the General Vending corpori atiou reports that they handled over three bHlion of them last year. If | you can figure out away to corner these insignificant pieces of American j ' money, you are assured of. an event-1 ual fortune and without any body feeling the operation much. The dry forces should, if they an
" awake to their own cause, prevent if possible the sending of the Michigan 1 woman to prison for life for having I four times violated the liquor laws. Such punishment to an unfortunate old lady is so out of step with that : being handed out to real criminals , these days that of itself, the act would cause many to rebel. Surely the crime for this woman is not as J serious as that of the Flint man who murdered a little girl in cold blood after assaulting her and yet the i | punishment would be the same. Hon. Frank C. Dailey was a visitor here for a few hours, met a lot of • j old friends and expressed his confi- : deuce in the result of the convention. Frank is a candidate for governor and his popularity was manifested in the splendid vote given him, lacking but I a few thousands of a majority in a field of seven. Several of his former Bluffton buddies including William A. 1 Kunkle and Dal Wandel came over with him. They are so strong for him over there that they are predicting a unanimous vote in November in order to make a better showing than they did in the primary. The Republican management has forgotten the origin of the party. For purpose, in inertia or because of tint- j idity it has swung back through Whiggery into the old federalism and into • the worst of federalism. It has rejoined itself to doctrines of oppression enforced by federal machinery, by federal courts and marshals. The Democratic party has renewed its association with its youth when it was, at times unwisely and at times wildly, the exponent of Democratic rights and the defender of the individual against the usurped power, against autocratic government and even against unreasonable or unjust majorities.—Chicago Tribune, (Republican.* The Indianapolis city council passed the daylight saving ordinance over
Stomach Pains and Rheumatism Gone Had 10 Years of Torture, But Made Quick Recovery. Trying to work a farm while crippled with rheumatism and stomach pains was the hard faced by Mr. Roy Eastes, Andrews, Ind. He tells of his recovery in a letter, as follows: “I suffered agony from rheumatism and severe stomach trouble for 10 long years. The rheumatic pains were so sharp that 1 could not bend I to put on my shoes. I was in such torture the last 3 months that my farm work was neglected. The indi--1 gestion was so bad that I had gas, nausea and dizzy spells frequently. I was weak, nervous, sleepless, and just worn out with suffering. But today life looks different to me. My 1 rheumatism scarcely ever bothers me now 'and my stomach feels fine. 1 eat hearty meals and they digest 1 without causing gas or distress. The pains and kinks in my back are gone and I can work every day. My new health began the day I started tak- ' ing Viuna, and lam surely grateful for the wonderful change this medicine has made in me.” Viuna acta promptly on tdugglsh bowels, lazy liver and weak kidneys. It purifies Hie blood, clears the skin, restores eppe tite and digest ion.aud brings new strength and energy to the whole body. Take a bottle on trial. Then if you're not glad ion tried Viuna, your money will be re funded. 11 st druggists or mailed postpaid by Icelaud Medicine Co., Indianapolis, lud. VIUNA The Wonder Medicine Sold By (GALLOW & LOHSE
