Another month ought to end the tree sitting contests for the season for by that time the nuts will begin to fall. A New York expert tells the men what they ought to wear this fall and winter but he doesn't arrange any credit to make it possible. They are voting in Maine today and in a few days we will know the best and the worst for the results there are always analyzed by the experts on each side. We still have the world series and the football games to look forward to and then comes Santa Claus and a New Year which will give us all new energy and enthusiasm. Take a few days off this week and have a good time. You have earned it and remember that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. After all its great to let down a little and this is the best opportunity to do it.

Hope you are right Jim and that it even goes beyond your hopes and expectations. Its fair week, and every thing is ready for the big show. Us success is assured if the weather man will behave. The decorations are gay, there are plenty of attractions, i the exhibits promise to excel any i ever shown here and we’re all 1 ready to go.

!f 1 i TODAY’S CHUCKLE ♦ (U.R) « London.—A death that startled no one was that of a mouse j • j that fell 45 feet from the tiles to a table on the stage around which were sitting the princlt pal characters of the play "The j Calendar” at th > Gaiety the--1 ater. • » ■„ « | quarter century. 1 The list of casualties in Santo i , | Dominga continues to grow and jtuay reach 5,000, with almost every I I ; house in the historic city destroyed and a property loss of fifty million, as a result of the recent storm. The island is the spot where Columbus ami his crew first landed on their search for America. President Hoover gave up his weekly fishing trip to Rupidan camp over Sunday and devoted his time to preparing speeches to be made next month. We imagine that’s considerable of a job this year and it is to be hoped the ! people will appreciate the sacrifice he is thus making. Henry Ford admits that times are bad anu takes comfort from the fact that the conditions are being prolonged to such an extent that it will cause people to think. Yep, and its a good thing Henry doesn’t know all the things the people are thinking. He might not be able to toss it all off so flippantly. These are times when every one ought to help in his own battle as much as possible. Don’t lean on the other fellow for he perhaps is also bending a little under his load. If each one will do his best he will be surprised how rapidly he can lift his burden and that will help every one else to do likewise. They are pulling a lot of jokes these days on the vaudeville stage concerning the administration and the braud of prosperity so far furnished. One comedian makes a hit with his declaration that Mr. Hoover has proven his ability as an engineer by "ditching the entire United States." Its a serious thing to joke about but perhaps that’s as good away as any to call attention to it and to take it. The political campaign will op n j soon in Adams county. Certainly I there should not be much doubt as jto results. The county is normally 2,000 democratic and this year of alFthose we can remember should be the last when that party should even have to explain the fact that they stand for the people. The past few years in state and national at.ars should he impressive enought to convince the average voters that e ntralized government i is a very had thing to encourage. The 11K10 campaign in Indiana j will open this week with meetings ■in various parts of the state by J both leading parties. The demojerats will call attention to fall- ! ures of the state arid national administrations, while the republicans will say they tnght have been worse. One of the interesting tilings will he to listen to the dcf use of the new tariff bill, admitted by every economist to be bad but nevertheless defended by Senator Watson, Governor Leslie and others who no doubt feel they must do so? • — « !

MILITIAMEN IN LOUISAN A (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) I Jackson barracks last night shortly after a missing witness in the state highway investigation, whom state police were charged with having kidnaped, escaped from a hotel. Samuel Irby, the missing witness, drew a gun on an elevator operator and made his escape shortly after he had spokeu over the radio during an hour devoted to Long’s campaign. It was the first word the state had heard from Irby in 72 hours. Apparently of his own volition he denied that he had been kidnapped by state police. Long, who was speaking over the radio at the time, expressed surprise and told his listeners that Irby had just turned up. He then turned the microphone over to the highway witness. Lby then broadcast a prepared statement in which he said he had called state police to take him to Jeff rson Parish where the district attorney wished to question him. He said he was released immediately afterward. Previous to his disappearance, however. Irby had issued a statement saying his life had been threatened, and Shreveport authorities said he had asked them for prot-retion from the state police. After Irby's statement Long conj tinned his speech. "My enemies thought they had me, those newspapers which said 1 kidnapped Irby," he said. "Now I have it on them.” And he laughed into the microphone. It was after this that Irby made a dash for the freight elevator. When the attendant refused to operate the lift, Irby is alleged to have drawn a gun and forced him to descend. City police were ordered to arrest Irby on sight, on the technical charges of disturbing the peace and drawing a gun.

MAINE VOTERS ; AT POLLS TODAY Predictions of Close Contest; State Normally Republican Portland. Me.. Sept. S. — fU.R> — Principal Interest in today's state election appeared to center around the adage, "as Maine goes, so goes the nation." a Campaigns leading up to the biennial “off-year" balloting left ' voters unenthuslastic and unexcited, and Indications were that the total number of ballots cast would not be great. Skies were overcast this morning but there was no prediction of rain. There were several interesting co-tests in sight, despite the fact that political fervor had not been i stirred. Democratic leaders of normally republican Maine professed to see a possibility of the minority party capturing several major offices now held by the G. O. P. The gubernatorial contest in which Governor William Tudor Gardiner, republican, was opposed for reelection by Edward C. Moran, Jr., democrat appeared to bo the feature of the election. Supporters of the latter believed the vote would be, very close with a possibility of a democratic triumph, Michigan Votes Detroit, Sept. B.—(U.R)—Michigan's hectic republican primary came to a close today with politicians making their final pleas for voters over the radio, at ward meetings and through newspapers. In Detroit, however, the state races were overshadowed by the mayoralty contest, brought about through the recall in July of Mayor Charles Howies. It is expected that in Detroit more than 350,000 will go to the polls tomorrow, impelled principally through the bitter fight which has been waged by four of the five mayorality candidates. Out-state, however, the contest for governor holds the chief interest. Fred W. Green, finishing his second term, is not a candidate for re-election but he has injected himself into the campaign through his active support Wilber M. Brucker, attorney general. Alex J. Groesbeck, three times governor, and Judge Edward J. Jeffries, Detroit, are the other twS candidates. Groesbeck, old ehemy of Green, drew the governor into a’etive support of Brucker when he began attacking the Urebn administration, charging Brucker would continue its politics if elected. Nomination of the republican ticket is virtually tantamount to election in Michigan. Democrat candidates are unopposed for nomination. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Miller, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Brodbeck and family, Mr. and Mrs. Erwin Miller,! and Mr. and Mrs. Albert Miller and children motored to Lake James \ Sunday where they attended the Miller reunion.

Admiral Hermelo was named chief of police of Buenos Aires. Irlgoyen’s administration collapsed late Saturday when his few remaining supporters realized that the situation was hopeless. Foreign Minister Oyhanarte persuaded the president after a long and anxious conference that It was best for him to leave the capital. Accompanied by the foreign minister, his personal physician, Dr. Meabe, and his personal body guard, Leopoldo Flores, Irlgoyen was placed in Oyhanarte’s automobile, feverish and trembling, and driven to La Platt. The party went to the government house in La Platta, but no officials were present to receive them. They then went to the Seventh Infantry headquarters were Irlgoyen presetltedh is resig nation. Numerous members of the Irtgoyen cabinet and supporters of the former president were arrested. The provisional government ordered the arrest of former administrator of the state railways. Manuel J.
