The blue sky and the golden sun never looked better than this morning after a week of cloud and raiu. The Adams county delegation to the democratic state convention returned this morning enthusiastic over the big event which they ail agree was a worth while event. They are satisfied with the results and feel confident of a victory next November. "!!!■■ Frank Dailey received all but about three hundred of the nearly twelve hundred delegate votes in the convention. With four candidates in nomination that was a showing to be mighty proud of and the ovation which followed showed a genuine desire for this clean and fearless and capable leader. A Chicago salesman who visited here for the purpose of making a business survey of Adams county declared that his record shows that De. catur is the best town of 6.000 population in the state and Berne the best town of 2,500 in Indiana. Thats a mighty fine reputation and should make every citizen here so optimistic that he will proceed to do those things necessary to continue that condition. A drive around the city will convince you that the recent clean-up was a real one. Decatur never looked more attractive than it does this year at the beginning of summer. Lets keep it that way. During the next few months, thousands of tourists will pass through this city. What they say about our appearance and our hospitality and courtiesness, means much. The republican national convention will be held in Kansas City next week and the guessing as to the strength of Herbert Hoover who is evidently the favorite, will soon be ever. Ten days later the democrats will meet in Houston to select a standard bearer. In each convention Indiana has a favorite son, Senator Watson for the republicans and Evans Woollen for the demcorats. There will be great interest in the two events and there is much of real importance in the coming campaign. It was the greatest convention ever held in the state, attended by ten thousand people, all in earnest and all ready to go to work for the election of Frank Dailey and a ticket of men who will aid him in restoring the good name of Indiana. Hundreds of republicans approved the selection of Mr. Dailey for governor and will support him loyally. The folks in general are sick and tired of accusations, indictments of officials, the general conduct of affairs and ready and anxious for a change. Frank Dailey is the man who fits the picture to a dot and should be elected by a half million next November. The convention adopted a sensible platform, endorsed Mr. Woollens for president, named a splendid ticket and did It in a sane and deliberate manner which proved they mean business. Governor Jackson's brazen determination to go to Kansas City as the Coffin groups representative in the Indiana delegation to the Republican national conveutioi may be explained

ou the ground that this is his lust | opportunity to create an appearance of vindication. His administration will soon come to a close. He faces a prospect of long years with regret- ' ful thoughts over his folly In trying ’ to explain the Stephenson horse trade in language that drew a laugh from 1 the country, with time to think of his vain efforts to savte himself at the expense of the state when he refused to comply with demands for his resignation, and with the certainty that he will be known to posterity as the friend and political ally of D. C. Stephenson, who inflicted upon the state its darkest hour of political disgrace and corruption.—lndianapolis News. It is expected that 1928 road building activities will exceed all records. Twenty thousand miles of surfaced roads are to be built, and about 8,000 miles graded and drained. Throughout the country a multitude of plans have been laid for improving the existing highway systems as well as extending them A high degree of road service is assured, by the fact that about 240.000 miles of the total 288,000 in state highway systems are this year to be maintained under state highway departments’ supervision. Early estimates give amount available for road expenditures as being much greater than last year. From the various sources, it Is expected that highway funds will be upwards of $1,300,000,000. These highway facts should please everyone. There is no such thing as road building expense, unless it be shortsight- 1 edness that constructs poor or in- I adequate roads. Every dollar put into a modern highway for building or . widening is an economy and a divi- < dend-paying investment. The United States highway system is the best in the world.—The Manufacturer.

Despite Loss Os Her Family Os Three ■ "If once you don’t succeed, try and I try again," says Mrs. Thomas Catte, I who incidently, isn't an advocate of companionate marriages. Sometime ago, the black and while i cat belonging to Mrs. Graydon Hill, [ of this city, gayty displayed three brand new k,ittens. The future ser-' enaders soon reached the point ■ where Mrs. Hill found it necessary to let them shift for themselves. She ] presented the "yowlers” to some lenient friends. Mrs. Catte couldn’t I think of retiring so early in the game, so last night she shanghied two helpless young kittens from a neighbor in order tu keep up her batting average. - It was reported today that Mrs. e Catte and the babies are getting u along fine. o II Gat the Habit—Trade at wocie, it *ay»

Elderly people whose lives are burdened by rheumatism, weak kidneys and stomach trouble, will find a message of good cheer in a statement recently made by Mr. Levi 11. Paul, ago 72, who lives on Joe Street, Route 5, Huntington, Ind. He says: “For 32 years, I have had kidney trouble. My back ached constantly, and at times felt like it would break. I have had to get up as often as eight times a night. I had pains in the back of my head, and my shoulders were so stiff and painful that at times I couldn’t lift my left arm to comb my hair. I had to take laxatives all the time for constipation, and my stomach would pain and bloat with gas every time I ate. I am thankful for the message that persuaded me to give Viuna a trial. Already, I’m a different man. My backache is gone, and I can lift my arms in the air without trouble or pain, and I am sleeping fine. My bowels are in good shape again, and I can eat anything without a bit of distress. I’m even eating radishes and onions, for the first time in years. I only wish I had known of Viuna years ago, as it has brought me the relief that other medicines failed to give.” Viuna nets promptly on sluggish Gowda, lazy liver and weak kidneys. It purifies the' blood, clears the skin, restores appt ttteand digestion,and brings new strength and energy to the whole body. Take a , bottle on trial. Then if ynii're not glad yon tried Viuna. your money will bo refunded.
