South Bend has a population of 103,0(10 and Fort Wayne is estimated at 115,000. Now we are waiting for returns from Gary, , Evansville and Terre Haute to decide on the merits of their claims of the past few years. This office has planned in everyway possible to receive returns and will be glad to furnish them to you either by telephone or megaphone. 3 hat's our business—to give you the news—and we are happy to be of service at any and all times. Cail 1000. Business in Decatur will cease tomorrow from 2:30 to 4 o'clock, in respect to the memory of the late John Niblick, veteran business , man of the city. It is a deserved , recognition of one who loved De- , catur and Adams county and did , all he could for our people. There was only one automobile casualty over the weekend in Indiana, which is a wonderful record < tor any time, but greater when we have such weather as we did over last Sunday. Perhaps we are i getting to be more careful. Wouldn't it be wonderful if that was true Mrs. Rut li Hanna McCormick may be able to explain her position on the World Court and the prohibition question to the voters but it ( begins to look as though she may find some difficulty in explaining ( to certain members of the senate 4 why she should set a precedent of ( spending $252,000 to get the nomiI nation. That makes it hard on sonie of the old timers. Tiie government plans to put in 1 another corn quarantine when 1 roasting ear time arrives. It is 1 -considered a joke by many and 1 you can't blame them much when ' you remember that government 1 men insisted a few years ago that '

♦ ♦ TODAY’S CHUCKLE I ♦ <U.R> ♦ Southend, Eng.—Brandy and eggs failed to save a horse after it had been injured in a I collision on the seafront. unless great precaution was taken ■ at a great expense, no corn could be raised through this section. Oh, well, the quarantine will provide Jobs for a number. ——————— * With the price of wool about half what it was last year and not much more than a third of what it was two years ago a lot of folks are now finding out what Mr. Hoover meant by his statement that this is the reconstruction period. In democratic times such prices together with the noil-employment so prevalent was called a panic but tb.af seems to be too common a name for the present period. Fourteen Indiana women, eleven republicans and three democrats are seeking nomination for representative in the state legislature this year and no doubt some of them will be successful. It is not impossible that in twenty years from now our law making bodies will be controlled by women. That will be different in many ways and whether or not it will be an improvement depends of course on the women. Rev. M. W. Sunderman, pastor ot the Evangelical church here the past two years, has been returned by the conference which adjourned at South Bend recently and will continue his service here the coming year. Rev. Sunderman is an able and experienced minister and works at his profession all the lime, being sincere and forceful. He is popular here and his friends and admirers are happy to have him continue another year as a citizen and a pastor here. The long looked for day has arrived and the democrats of Adams county are busy selecting their ticket. The vote is expected to be unusually large because of the various township contests and the rather exciting race for the nominations for various county offices. 1 It has been a clean and well con- ‘ ducted primary. May the best men win and may we all unite for the ! common cause next November. This should be a democratic .var ' and will be if those who believe in Jeffersonian principles and government, wiil do their share for a victory. Lester Simon, an Omaha man, , stood in line to shake hands with President Hoover. After the brief < ceremony of meeting the great man he found that his podket had been picked. We feel that Mr. , Simon ~ow clearly understands the emotions of the millions of middle western farmers who stood in line before Hoover, voted for him at I the November election, 1928, election, and who now believe that if their pockets have not been picked, at least their high hopes have been blasted, their good nature imposed upon, their credulity exploited, by the gentry surrounding the President who know exactly what they want and how to get it, and usually do get it at the expense of the submissive voters of the middle west. —Omaha World-Herald. 0 —
