It looks as though we will have a repetition of the campaign of four years ago, "work for Burk and ‘ stick to Krick.” One of the hottest primary scraps in the state will be the one in Gary where R. O. Johnson is making a fight to come back with a splendid chance of success. Its a good sign for the world that on the twelfth anniversary of America’s entrance into the World War, the noted leaders here and in every country which took part in that terrible conflict are pleading the cause of continued peace. Let the good work go on.

Congressman Pritchard, republican , congressman from South Carolina refuses to have his office in the representatives building at Washington , next to that of DePriest, republican . negro member from Chicago, has turned in his keys and will provide his own quarters. The colored folks want to know why their votes are acceptable if their presence is so nauseating. I I»I— Farmers who are willing to learn should get in touch with Mr. Munro . near Geneva and discover his secret if there is one of how he has averaged SIOO per acre foi twelve years from his beet crop. That should help , out every one who has been having , difficulties in making his farm pro- , duce taxes, overhead and a return for , the labor necessary to conduct such , a business. i The state of California now proposes to vote to see whether the , people of that state will comply with ] the Jones act, new federal enforce- , ment law. recently enacted. As long . as there is a standing army and other , officials to enforce a national law, we fail to understand how such a vote , would influence !he matter one way or another, except as a political barometer. Perhaps thats the purpose of it. American Legion boys from over the eighth district visited Adams Post here yesterday, the occasion being the annual convention. It was a happy and in every way successful event tor which France Conter and the other officers of the local post deserve credit. Only nice things were said by the visitors about the hospitality shown here and it was a pleasure for this city to again entertain these men for whom every one has such high regard. Mr. Coolidge believes that no one should hold to exceed two terms as president and if a part of one of those is a happen chance, that does not alter the facts and the folks will believe ' him for he had to fight off the nomination a year ago. To make sure he sent his secretary, Mr. Sanders to the convention to take such steps as were necessary to prevent a Coolidge band wagon rush. His action should help to make stronger the precedent long f , I ago established along that line. - Only three more weeks in which to secure the beet acreage required to assure operation of the big plant here and the outlook is not as encouraging as it should be. This is not a bluff and is not published at the request of

, TODA VS CHUCKLE Boston. —(UP)— While in masquerade costume, her husband leaned over the bed on which she ►as sleeping and frightened her by shouting "boo!" Mrs. Edmond Bigelow testified in probate court here, t She was granted a divorce on the grounds of cruel and abusive treat- > ment. , any one connected with the factory i here or elsewhere. Unless the acrei , age is secured you should know that 1 the mill cannot be operated and if It does not the loss to this community will be distinctly felt. We can save it yet if we will all do a little boosting. For fear the city manager measure will be declared nil, four republicans filed as candidates for mayor in Indianapolis yesterday. The list includes Duvall, who was ousted; Jewett, a former mayor; George L. Winkler. county sheriff and Thomas Daily, a former state senator, indicating somewhat that the various crowds inside the G. O. P. in Marion county are still at each others throats. To protect against a default, the democrats also filed a ticket headed byReginald Sullivan for mayor. John D. Williams Saturday evening gave up his contest and surrendered the keys to the offices of the state highway commission of which he had been director for seven years. His statement gives you an idea as to why some folks wanted him out and his warning to the public to watch their interests carefully is one that should not go unheeded. Mr. Brown who succeeds Williams is a man of

excellent character and much ability. It remains for him to convince the public of his earnestness by giving the state the best record his important office has ever shown. Bluffton has reduced the number of instructors in their public schools by four and dismissed the athlete coach, due it is said to decrease in enrollment and the necessity for economy, which looks like a very wise and sensible thing to do under the. circumstances. Such a course is far better than to continue on a scale that would pile up the indebtedness to a serious peak. However, Bluffton is coming back rapidly now aud it is more than probable that by the time the schools open next September, it will be necessary to add teachers, which can of course be done, and will be if required. A little late for publication but in due time to get in under the law, the republican candidates for the primary were filed Saturday evening about four o’clock. While it may have seemed mysterious it was perhaps more the real job of securing candidates. Those finally filed are wellknown citizens and the contest next November should be of sufficient interest to bring out every voters. The nominees on the democratic ticket will have the advantage that several of them are a part of the present administration which has made a splendid record. The city was never in better condition in every way. o Card of Thanks To all who so cheerfully and graciously helped us during the illness and death of my wife and our mother we with to express our sincere thanks and deep appreciation of your kindness. Ira Wagoner and Family. 0 Aw, Gwan! It Is claimed In America that a sheep Is learning to talk. London Opinion understands that the animal Is being taught simple words and has already mastered the first syllable of "banana."
