"Bootlegger hides behind woman's skirts,” says a headline. Must have been a very large woman or a very small bootlegger. It must be humiliating for Maine that the election will be held in November notwithstanding the battle of ballots if it can be called that, held there recently. During the next few weeks we will try to present to you the campaign issues and we will be just as fair and as decent about it as we can. You will wish to hear and read the discussions before you vote. You can if you will. The St. Louis Cardinals and the New York Yanks will play off the world series, always a serious affair, (let ready to tune in. It will do you good to forget other matters long enough to watch the results a: on the number of times "Bal will hit it over the hack fence Frank C. Dailey already t-as a nation-wide reputation to: LaTles# ness in doing his duty. If he is elected governor of Indiana you may rest assured that he will keep up that reputation by giving an honest and capable administration. Your difficulties and your worries about Indiana will be over. Os course the main topic the next few weeks will be politics but we should start in after election to improve conditions by trade or gift days and in the meantime there are those who can be aiding the causing by making plans for that time. Facts are it wouldn’t hurt a thing to start it right now. The democrats will organize every precinct in the county at once and by election day should be ready to bring out the largest vote in history. The people are interested and with a little effort on the part of a few people in each precinct, we can win a great victory next month. We want your help and you should be glad to give it. Mrs. Clara Anderson of Geneva, is the democratic candidate for recorder of Adams county and is entitled' to your earnest support. She is capable and deserving. She supports her family and will conduct the office in an excellent manner. Men and women should vote for her and you may feel confident that she will conduct the office in a splendid manner. Hon. John M. Parker will speak at (he court house in this city Friday evening. Come early and get a good seat for this is one of the real events of the campaign in this section. Mr. Parker is an ex-governor of Louisana and for years has been recognized as one of the great leaders of democracy. Hear the issues discussed by a man well qualified to do it. The Adams County Witness shouts, that its all over but the "hollering" and hopes besides carrying the state and nation to elect the republican officials in Adams county. That's perhaps alright forth ; m to hope for but we can’t see th® sensible people of the county following their ; Berne democrats should re the “slick” politics played on ....... j

TODAY’S CHUCKLE Milwaukee, Oct. 2 —<U.R>— Learn- i lug that neighbors were about to I complain to the police about liquor I law violation, Frank Hahn, beat . them to it and called authorities 1 i himself. At his invitation his place j ■ | was searched and moonshine was j . found. Fine. SIOO. at the time of the town elect), n last ’ j year. — > News of the recent tep-lb'e Florida ) j storm no longer attracts attention. I [ The sensational part of it is over and the people soon forget the most tragic circufhstanees. But the sufferers do; not forget. They are still in dire need ! of many things and we who are so much better off should not hesitate 1 to give to the Red Cross relief fund which is designed to aid those of the southern area who need it. Discussing Issues other than economic is just the old practise of throwing you off the track. If you really want Adams county to come hack, if you want farm lands to again attain a value, if you want farmers, laborers and business men to prosper, your duty this year is to vote democratic. ' We don’t just understand how the average man or woman can be so 1 blind to the issues that should he having attention in this campaign. A whispering campaign does not need a radio or a telephone. It goes from mouth to mouth faster than »ound can travel, it seems, until it j bumps up against some one with cour-1 age and sense and then it falls flat, j We do not believe in it on either side, we feel that political battles should be conducted upon issues and that the vote should be fairly taken. If we can't win that way, we won't, win. but we are sure the people of this community and county are fair and nsible and honest and so we have .0 fears of the results. Many questions as to the length of residence required have been received by- the state board of election commissioners. The public also is not fully informed on the recent repeal of the registration law. Six months in the state. 60 days in the county and 30 days in the precinct are the residence qualifications. Registration is not necessary, but the voter may save the trouble of answering challenges if he sees that his name is on the poll books of each party before election time. The absent voters law has been repealed. All voting must be "in person” this year. We have no desire to make any one vote against their will but we honestly don't see how any body gets away from the fact that under present con- . ditions no one is prospering and that , unless a change comes soon there will , be a crisis in this great middle west. , If Governor Smith is elected president , he promises to do every thing within his power to relieve the situation. We . believe he will bring the value on farm lands up by providing better markets for your grain and your pro- ; duce. Is that what you want or do ■ you prefer four years more of coni stant slipping backwards? After all ■ its up to you. Vote as your conscience ■ dictates, but be careful. Republicans will make a drive against Frank Dailey the next couple of weeks. They realize the fact that the state is going agaihst Mr. Leslie and they will try to force him upon the people, regardless of the fact that he is very close to Ed Jackson, was speaker of the house during the Stephenson’s regime and has none of the qualities really needed to give Indiana the administration we so badly need. Nothing serious can be said against Mr. Dailey and the fight, we are informed will be based upon the fact that he is an attorney, member of one of the leading firms of Indiana and , that members of that firm have at some time represented public utilities, as they had a perfect right to do. Mr. Dailey makes himself very clear and plain upon his position regarding commissions, utilities and all other matters of importance. o I will be out of the city Thurs.. Friday and Saturday, Oct. 4,5, 16. Dr. Burt Mangold. 4tx-233

That is what this new medicine did for me.” So declares Mrs. Josophine Bagwell, 817 Hubbard Avenue. South Bend, Indiana. “Rheumatism, the result of dis- ■ ordered kidneys, caused me intense pain in my back and limbs," says Mrs. Bagwell. “In the morning it was with extreme pain that I was ■ i able to get up and walk. Night after night 1 scarcely closed my eyes, the' pains were so bad. “I read about Konjola. what it was doing for others and thought maybe it might help me. But I had no idea 1 how quickly I could lie relieved. A few bottles of this remedy, and I was 1 well again. Gone are the terrible pains; health has taken their place. I walk anywhere, and sleep soundly. How I wish I had beard of this woni derful Konjola two years ago.

H. Knapp & Son THE SECOND TIME IT’S home, but it isn’t perfect. You know more now than when you first hung up those curtains and mov’ed your furniture in. Y T ou have lived with those walls, bookcases, radiators, cups and saucers long > enough to know their merits and demerits. The kind you would buy the second time, and the kind you wouldn’t buy. If you and Sarah could start all over again, /ou’d profit from that experience. Avoid what has-proved unwise—study advertisements, home-furnishing pamphlets—let the potatoes scorch and the lima beans boil dry—just comparing new’ refrigerators, bathtubs, patterns of delicate china. You’d want to make sure what you bought this time would please you as much tomorrow as today. YET day by day you are making that home-place over. “We do need some new curtains.” “Hadn’t we better get some butter-knives?” The only difference is a gradual instead of a wholesale affording. And by knowing the advertisements you know the future I 1 of what you buy. You know by name, for instance, the curtains that won’t sag or fade. ALL the wisdom that your windows, your electric washer and ironer, the wind, sun, rain would write out for you slowly about I those curtains, season by season—you get in one swift reading of the curtain advertisements. Experience usually deals with the past. With advertisements, it deals with the future! You buy the now and the will-be when you buy advertised wares. READ the advertisements to know what is advertised- what is certain to satisfy you. A daily reading of the advertisements prepares you for happy, safe choices first times as well as second times—every time you buy. Decatur Daily Democrat
