Governor John M. Parker, of Louisana, will be the principal speaker. Don C. Ward, of Union City, democratic candidate for congress will also give a short address. Aime Semple McPherson wants to put on a big revival that she says will clean up the hell holes of Paris and stop the nude dancing. Some one ought to tip them off over there that Aime charges for her applications of saving salve. The blackbirds are flying southward, there is a large supply of all kinds of nuts and every sign points to a hard, cold winter. You can’t dodge it unless you can afford to go with the birds to Florida or California but you can make it easier by supplying the fuel and filling the larder. Poker players should take warning from an incident which occurred in Chicago Sunday night where a game of stud was in progress among a number of colored folks. Two of them turned up an ace of spades and the one who bad lost pulled his gnu and shot the other ace holder dead. Some times they lose if they win. There seems to have been one advantage in the long dry spell and that is that every thing was so dry that the frost Sunday night didn't do much damage. If the fall rains will come now and get it over, every thing will be lovely or as lovely as it can be after a rather raggegd season for farming. The estimates on the death loss in Florida have grown steadily as the real news comes drifting in. At first it was only a hundred or two and some real estator down that way got real angry when some paper guessed as high as 400. Now it is up to more than two thousand and conservatives say it will reach five hundred to a thousand more than that when the totals are made. We used to hear something about “pernicious activity in politics” and we have been wondering why that don't apply to Mrs. Mabel Willebrandt, assistant attorney general of the United States and who is devoting all of her time or much of It any way in delivering tirades against Governor Smith. She no doubts thinks she would lose her soft job if he were elected and she probably would. Facts are she ought to lose it now. The most important part of an election campaign after all is the organization. No one man or a few can perfect that. If there is sufficient interest to cause a number of people to take part in the work, then and then only can victory be won. It should be the duty of every citizen who cares about his country to take his full part in an election. Don't wait for the other fellow to do it, step out and show your colors. It is only possible to guess at the number of dead in the Florida hurricane district but there is no guessing about the number of those who are homeless and who need aid. There are thousands of them and only

We are sorry you had so serious an accident but we are happy to have been able to render some service to two such 1 brave soldiers of the air and we wish you all kinds of good luck in the future. We shall all look forward with much pleasure to your promised ; return and assure you that any thing I this community can do to cement the . friendships formed and to.make your , stay here a happ yone, we (and that means every one here) will gladly do. In the meantime take *'keer of yerselfs” as the late James Whitcomb Riley would have said. A lot of states are getting a polit- ' ical campaign this year that usually just take things as a matter of course. The democrats have organized in every county in Michigan and will put up a real battle in Pennsylvania, Illinois and other states, usually so republican that they are counted long before this. The republicans are putting up a fight in Texas and in Florida and other southern states where they have heretofore hardly had enough voters to fill the election boards and run the postoffices. Its a very unusual campaign in which interest will grow. Mrs. Thomas R. Marshall, widow of the former governor of Indiana and former vice-president of the United States, well known and widely beloved throughout this section, has issued a statement in support of Governor Smiths And she does it after a thorough study of his record as governor of New York and of his position ou every question now uppermost in the minds of the people. The women of Indiana should know that Mrs. Marshall is for Mr. Smith for president because she has convinced herself that he is the best choice and will do most for all the people. One thing is certain in reference to farm relief legislation and that is, that if farmers following the Republican failure of action and the Coolidge veto, do not lambast the party responsible for that record the farmers of this country care little about all farm relief proposals. If Mr. Hoover should carry all of the agricultural states despite his connection with the Coolidge cabinet and his indorsement of the Coolidge administration, then agitators for farm relief might as well seek some other form of activity because it will be apparent that farm relief is not an issue with the rank and file of farmers themselves. Only one thing is certain about the campaign so far. It continues to be a real horse race surrounded with much uncertainty. — Indianapolis Commer- ' cial. o •TWENTY YEARS AGO* * From the Dally Democrat File • * Twenty Years Ago Today • «*«*****••••* Sept. 25—Local option bill goes to , third reading in house.
