A hick town is one where every body tries to beat the fire truck to the blaze and to interfere as much as possible with those who are paid to do the job. Os course there will still be bootleggers willing to take a chance oil five to ten years in prison if he gets enough for his goods. Men will take rather large chances if there is sufficient profit in the transaction. So far we haven't been able to figure just why Harry Daugherty, former attorney general of the United States, is trying to stir up the terrible odor attached to the 'little green house on K street.” Seems he would be willing for the people to forget it. The only night club in Indianapolis has closed, it is claimed by the News. They have perhaps heard of the Jones law. By the way reports from all over the country indicate that the bootleggers who can afford it arc rapidly closing out their stock of goods to retire. Harry M. Daugherty says he intends to "tell the truth about the little green house on K street.” Bet he doesn't do it bit’ if he would write a book giving that story truthfully, l;e would no doubt find it one of the ten best sellers and the returns would permit him to live a life of idleness to the end of his career. Just when we thought winter over comes the report from Nebraska of three hundred men being trapped in the worst blizzard of the year. They went out to hunt for a school boy who was lost anil the storm became so severe that they couldn't find their way back. The month of March seems to be an unlucky one for the Bank of Linn Grove, the recent hold-up having been the third annual, each occuring about the same time. Cashier Lybarger will certainly survey with some anxiety each arrival whom he does not know personally during the month ct March hereafter. In a county out in Kansas the commissioners have adopted a rule that help from the county will not be extended to any poor person who owns a dog or au automobile. They can perhaps get along without the dog but how can they be expected to get around these days to look for a job without the aid of au automobile? We would all enjoy spring more if there was a means of side- tracking the annual crop of tornadoes but bo far no means to that end lias been discovered and they seem to hit every section of the country at various times. This year the southern states seem to have been the particular spot for greatest destruction. A New Yorker died recently and bequeathed his son three million dollars—hut he can't have it until he is forty ami then only it he has led a motal lite Up perhaps figured that by that time he would know better. As it is the trustee will have quite a job keeping tab on the young man and passing on just what is moral and immoral according to the rapidly

Indications are that the requests of the in- . pection bureau will be complied with 5 and that within a few months at farthest citizens here will secure a lower rate of insurance. That added to a reduction in electric light rates ; should help some. j With the coming of spring we may ! of course expect soft roads and there 1 is one duty that every good citizen and every motorist owes —your every effort to aid in every way to save . them.

Townships and the county must stand the losses. Be careful that you do not > abuse the roads by unnecessarily , hauling heavy loads over them for in . the long run you must help pay for > rebuilding or repairing them. . According to the official dope from Indianapolis the bill calling for a constitutional convention in Indiana was lost in the closing shuffle and we won't have to decide it by ballot. Just as well. Os course the old cons stitution is somewhat obsolete and needs a number of changes but it ■ would be a sorry day for the people i of this state if a new one was written , under present conditions. Every one with a pet theory, every selfish interest, every this and that would be . «n hands Io pull every string and s make every trade to get theirs with t chances that the new one would be » far worse than the old one. The local American Legion, supI ported by several ether organizations, are seriously considering putting on a fall festival here, the event to be of especial interest to farmers with premiums on live stock, grains and other products of the farm. Interesting programs each day will be given if the plans are carried out and there is said to be much interest from varied sources. Its a big job and a difficult one but worth while and could easily be made an annual event. Bluffton, Lagrange, Delphos and other places nearby have given them for t years and with great success. We t know of no reason why it can't be , done here. Citizens of Indiana should give earnest thought to the question of state taxes. Surely there is some means of holding in check those who are extravagant in their expenditures The income tax has been suggested as t a means of raising more money tu meet the ever increasing demands and there is much to be stxid both foi i and against it. Perhaps a plan in t compromise whereby r taxes on propt erty can be reduced while those ( earning large incomes would pay more than under present laws. Maybe a better plan yet can be worked out, f any way its all worth your thought. , We might insist at the next election , that only those who favor the great j est economies should be chosen to off flee. Its too iate to correct presen s conditions but its just the right time H to think about future taxes. o ***»***«i***»« • TWENTY YEARS AGO * * From ths Dally Democrat Filo ■ 1 * Twenty Years Ago Today 1 1- <S»S»*«SSOSSI a March 15 —Governor Marshall wi speak before the National Democrat! a club in New York City on April 15--t Dr. C.

U / y ./ ; MRS. STELLA WIELGOSS “Since I completed the treatment of Konjola, I am entirely free of the dreadful miseries of kidney and stom ach trouble," said Mrs. Stella Wlelgess, 2526 West Frederickson street. South Bend, Indiana. "My stomach and kidneys had been causing me intense misery for over two years. My trouble was mostly due to weak kidneys. Every action brought on a burning sensation to my bladder. My back was weak and achy all the time. After every meal I suffered from indigestion pains. Gas formed and pressed against my heart. I was subject to dizzy spells. “After taking Konjola I seemed to have new health throughout my body and system. Four bottles made my stomach organs function perfectly and my digestion is in wonderful shape. I never luive gas and bloating ; spells are a thing of the past. I ' sleep thru the entire night without I waking once. Konjola permanently relieved every trace of stomach and kidney trouble, that is why I am only too glad to indorse it to others." Konjola is sold in Decatur, Indiana, at Smith, Yager & Falk's drug store and by all the best druggists in all towns throughout this entire section.
