Chicago 200 Fifth Avenue, New York Charter Member The Indiana league of Home Dallies. There is a mayor out in an Illinois city who works for fifty cents a year. Usually we get what we pay for and perhaps lie is only a half dollar man. Harry Sinclair seems to fool very badly because he must serve ninety days in jail but perhaps no worse than a lot of other fellows have felt who received similar doses or worse. After all tile fuss over daylight saving the fact remains that the sun rises and sets just as it did, that we have the same number of hours of light and darkness and that we can arrange this to suit our own convenience. The vote yesterday was the lightest in years which, however, dbes not signify that there will not be plenty of interest next November when the general election occurs. It is important that we elect those best qualified to serve in the capacity for which they are nominated. The democrats nominated William Hosey for mayor at Fort Wayne yesterday and the republicans chose Jacob Bill, in both cases upsetting the plans of the political leaders there. Each man won decisively and the’ .contest next November promises to be a real "boss" race. Decatur industries are going full tilt, one of them operating twenty-two hours a day. That’s a good sign and there is no reason why you should not go ahead with any improvement you have in mind. You are safe if you invest in Decatur for it is recognized as one of the best cities in the middle west in the 5,000 to 10,000 class. Mrs. Wilhelmina Schultz. 102, rode an airplane from Michigan City to Benton Harbor yesterday, being the first passenger to alight at the new airport. We shall soon know what brand of socks she wears, her favorite hair tonic and perhaps whether she reaches for a cigarette instead of a sweet. This is an unusual age. There? is quite a conflict on now between the public aud the new postmaster general because it is claimed by the public that postage stamps won’t stick as they used to and the I’. M. C. contends that they do and that the troubh is with the public. Perhaps they need more old fashioned J. T. or Horseshoe chewing tobacco. Remember that the police have been ordered to summoned to court those who park ears double. You may squeal about it and “cuss’ those upon whom the responsibilities rest but you must admit that if this prevents a serious accident, it is worth it. The streets are for the use of all so please be as considerate of the other car driver as you can. * Next Sunday is Mother's day anti on that occasion you are asked to remember your mother with a call, with a letter, with a postal card, with flowers or ■ candies or any message yill a«snp'./|ier of your Iqve aq,d. yotlr fidelity. It Is a wonderful sentiment to encotn age and a day t hat should he <d>served with the greatest pleasure of any of the year. The court bouse is to be improved and a contract will be let next month at the meeting of the commissioners.
TODAY’S CHUCKLE AahgvUle N. C. —(UP)—Zebulon Shipman. a justice of the peace, advertised for business in local newspapers, as follows: “Having no political bosses to throw work my way, would appreciate business by the people. The plans adopted include rooms for the county surveyor and the county agent, saving about ss<H> a year in rentals, besides the very greatly needed Improvements in the court room. The county council showed judgment aud wisdom and every one will be pleased wo feel sure. We have heard of a good many ways in which to secure money by graft but the latest one is about the most unique. A Chicago nepro has for years been securing eomproinsie settlements from small merchants of from ten dollars to $250 by claiming damages. His game was to drop a banana peeling on the sidewalk in front of some place, of business and then collect for injuries. He was caught at it the other day and is nowserving a term in jail. The daylight saving question was settled in a referendum yesterday and the vote, while rather close, is nevertheless binding as the council had declared they would abide by th© result While we have never espoused this change we can see in it some advantages, the one perhaps most effective being that several of the factories aud some business houses doing business with other cities, had already adopted the daylight schedule, thus making it inconvenient in many households. It is hoped that the new plan will not prove serious to a great degree to any one and that afl will cooperate in avoiding any further mixup of time. We will know any way after a trial of four months whether we really like it or not and this may guide us iu the future. In the meantime lets all do the best we can. The primaries are over and the tickets are named. Mayor Krick was nominated and witli him Fred Linn. George Appelmau. O. L. Vance, Herman Gillig and Joseph Hunter without opposition. For clerk, Mrs. Alice Christen won decisively and Mrs. Ada Martin with a handsome majority. Tlie ticket is a strong one and standing upon the record of the past four years, which by the way is one that will bear the closest scrutiny, deserves to win in this democratic community. The republicans named Avon Burk for mayor, Mrs. Beane for clerk. Mrs. Hoagland for treasurer and Ralph Yager, John Zimmerman, Davi I Campbell, James L. Kocher and C. O. Porter for councilmen. In due time the issues will be announced no doubt and the campaign staged. The vots cast yesterday was smaller than usual but larger than was predicted, the vote on the daylight saving question bringing forth several hundred who might otherwise not have been interested. ♦ TWENTY YEARS AGO • ♦ From th* Dally Democrat Filo * ♦ Twenty Years Ago Today • tv*********** May B—JudgeB—Judge O'Rourke grants new trial in the Amaeher vs Johnson ditch

YOU SMOKERS, READ THIS If You Have Been Skeptical of Five-cent Cigars To the gentlemen of the smoke jury—to you men who have reached the decision that you just can't gvt a good smoke for five cents—we want to offer some new evidence. All we ask you to do is to try one more fivecent brand: Bayuk’s Havana Ribbon. Y'ou’re going to be surprised! At last, for the small sum of five cents you can get a cigar made entirely of ripe, long-filler tobacco. Never heard of such a thing? Maybe not. But it's a joy’us reality now. Not a strand of bitter, raspy underripe nor a trace of insipid oner-ripe tobacco usually found m low-priced cigars. Nor any short, loose ends to crumble in your mouth. No, sir, Bayuk’s Havana Ribbon has the fragrance, mellow-mildness, rich flavor of fine tobacco at its best. | Because every leaf is fully RIPE. Risk one nickel, men—at any nearby cigar counter. Or. better still, try a Practical Pocket Package of five cigars. BAYUK -1 Ripe Tobacco!
