If you favor clean government and restoring the good name of Indiana, you'll vote for Frank C. Dailey for governor. Congressman Vestal voted for the McNary-Haugen bill, but he did not explain to his audience Saturday night why “he held his nose" when he did. If you have been a resident of the state for six months, sixty days in the township and thirty days in the precinct you are entitled to vote next Tuesday. A week from‘today is the last day to pay your fall installment of taxes. If you haven't the money borrow it from one of the Republican spellbinders who are talking about this "prosperity." Frank C. Dailey, democratic candidate for governor, is our neighbor. He was born and lived for many years in Bluffton. Show him your neighbor- • ly good will by seeing that Adams county gives him one of the biggest majorities of any county in the state. * ■“ ■ A survey shows that there are 43,- : 000,000 registered votes in the coun- j try. This is an increase of about 14 i million over four years ago and In t cities where the increase is the heaviest it will be some job getting them to vote. Anyway the vote next week will be the largest cast in the history of the country and as an American citizen you should not fail to go to the polls on November 6th. Senator George Norris, republican, of Nebraska, told the American people Saturday night over the radio why he was going to vote for Governor Smith. Since this staunch republican has come out for Governor Smith the gieat northwest, which has heretofore been republican, is in doubt, with chances in favor of Governor Smith carrying Wisconsin, Nebraska, North and South Dakota, Minnesota and Montana. The ball keeps going. Governor Smith was given a great reception in Philadelphia Saturday night. The'governor upon taking the platform remarked, “they have been telling me Philadelphia is a great republican stronghold, but so far I have been unable to note the difference.” The vast crowd was enthusiastic for the Democratic candidate and writers state that since his visit to the Quaker state, another state has been placed in the “doubtful list.” The final drive in the great campaign is being made this week and interest will no doubt reach the stage of fever heat. Governor Smith will deliver four addresses, speaking tonight in Baltimore, Md., Wednesday night in Newark, N. J., Friday night in Brooklyn and Saturday in Madison Square Garden, New York City. Mr. Hoover will speak in St. Louis on Friday night, on his way to California, where he will vote Tuesday and again on Monday night before the election. All the speeches will be broadcast and the voters should tune in and hear the final talks of the candidates in the greatest campaign in history.

TODAY’S CHUCKLE Dallas. Tex. Oct 29—(U.PJ'-A visitors to the State Fair here was so curious to know if the large fountain near the entrance contained goldfish that he leaned far over the pool and fell In. There were no goldflab, he reported upon climbing out. Who’s the republican candidate for president? Is it Borah, Mellon, Hughes or Governor McMullen? These gentlemen. P seems, state what Mr. Hoover is for and then within the next 12 to 24 hours, along comes Mr. Hoover and says, "that’s what I’m for.” He first disagreed with Governor McMullen on the special session of congress as a means of taking care of the farm relief question, hut when Mr. Borah, the "Big Bertha” of the republican campaigners called on him and said, "Herbie you should be for a special session or something," the republican candidate announced that If the December session of congress does not pass a farm relief measure he would call a special session next March. Now the farmer knows as much as he did before what he’s going to get if Hoover is elected and God save the country from a special session of congress. Congressman Albert Vestal had the stage all to himself Saturday night at the Republican rally held in the court room of the court house in this city. The two candidates for state office failed to show up and Mr. Vestal was given the entire evening in discussing campaign issues. He read his speech and was careful in choosing the subjects he discussed. His speech was along the line of “viewing with alarm and pointing with pride," omitting any mention of the Jackson administration in this state and overlooking those nasty things in the scandals of the national government. He was honest enough not to claim that the prohibition and Volstead laws were being enforced and while on this subject took an unfair position, in that he talked about the return of the evils of the old saloon, as his argument against any changes which might tend to strict enforcement and observance of law. No one wants the saloon returned. Governor Smith's position on the prohibition issue is sumed up in his speech of acceptance as follows: "I believe in temperance. We have not achieved temperance under the present system. The mothers and fathers of young men and women throughout this land know the anxiety and worry which has been brought to them by their children's use of liquor in away which was unknown before prohibition. I believe in reverence for law. Today disregard of the prohibition laws is insidiously sapping respect for all law. I raise, therefore, what I profoundly believe to be a great moral issue involving the righteousness of our national conduct and the protection of our children’s morals. "There is no question here of the return of the saloon. When I stated that the saloon ‘is and ought to be a defunct institution in this country’ 1 mean it. I mean it today. 1 will never advocate nor approve any law which directly or indirectly permits the return of the saloon." The Eighth district congressman also discussed the immigration issue, water power and farm relief and laid great stress on the prosperity issue, hoping that every farmer who heard the speech would go away with the feeling that he had more money than he knew what to do with. With gestures and hammering of the fists. Mr. Vestal gave vent to his feelings and his antics were in keeping with the training that a congressman gets after 12 years in the national capital. He wants to be elected and tried not to make anyone angry, and everything will be alright with him it he is returned to Washington. That's his issue. o *«****qs***M«* ♦ BIG FEATURES • • OF RADIO * «♦»***¥¥¥***« MONDAY’S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES WEAF—Network 8:30 pm. Opera 1 “Faust." WJZ--Network 6:30 pm. Roxy’s gang.

Fort Wayne, direct from its forty-nine weeks' run on Broadway, is described as a significant contribution to our native theatre. It is handsomely and impressively produced. The scenes and groupings have been hailed as an expressional note of unparalleled originality. Unhackneyed spirituals w ill be rendered as they are given in the south. Then a real orphange band from the Jenkins Orphanage, Charleston. S. C„ will be led by a young musician who is a master of native rhythms. “Porgy" has ben hailed as a play,of intense thrilling and haunting beauty, a stirring bit of mysterious actuality. The substance of the story has been intensified on the stage. Cast and production will come io Fort Wayne from New York in its entirety. No less eloquent than the acting is the frequent outbursts of song, the emotional upwellings of the stifled negro uatuie, in its imitable spirituals. The play was staged by Rouben Mamoullan, a young Russian-Armen-ian who had been in America but two years. The settings of Cattish Roware authentic, being done by Cleon Throckmorton after a visit to Charleston, S. C., the locale of the play, last summer. The Row itself is not called Catfish —in Charleston it is referred to as Cabbage Row and a prominent New Yotker recently purchased the old mansion house in which most of the action of ‘‘Porgy" takes place, intending to improve and remodel it as a home for artists. Further authenticity is lent by the fact that the Honey Man of the play is also based on a real person, as is Porgy himself and the Crab Mail. "Porgy" has scored the most notable success of any play performed by negroes and concerning their lives For this reason it has been assigned ’ a unique theatrical niche. In a cast of revue proportions the principals include Frank Wilson, it , the title role, Rose McClendon, Geor t gette Harvey, Evelyn Ellis.
