The bankers in session at Fort Wayne have decided that much of tile cause of the depression is due to the decline of farm products and farm values. We are glad thats decided. President Hoover refuses to commit himself on the question of wet and dry which is an issue in Ohio and New York. Evidently he is still inclined to the “noble experiment attitude of tw*o years ago. Congratulations to the Iwgion men for their stand in making the midway as clean as possible. It requires a stiff back to deal with some of these boys who follow the fairs but the boys here had 'em. Charles Bowles who served as niayor of Detroit a couple of years knows now that he is not wanted | for that job. He was dethroned by a petition and a special election and then ran again to vindicate himself, but a former judge, Frank Murphy, took his measure. Now he is out tor sure. The race in the National league keeps getting more exciting as the finish nears. Four t< ams have a chance with Chicago hanging to the lead by a margin too small now to be satisfying for the fans who have favored them. St. Louis, Brooklyn and New York are still in the fight. The weather man has b,-en rather decent with his brand this week and deserves a resolution of gratitude. The crowds at the fair have been large and the midway each evening gets a little uncomfortable, <specially for those who are in any kind of a rush. Maine has endorsed Mr. Hoover's administration according to the republican press but so far they haven't been able to diagnose whetlr r it was his enforcement of the prohibition laws or the enforcement of men out of jobs. In due time they will figure that out however to suit their political convenience and the people will probably go right on swallowing it. Jim Watson has started the republican campaign in Indiana and got quite a bunch of defense for the administration off his chest yesterday at Linton. They put on

Os course If you had the senator in a corner and asked him about the sincerity of his dope he would wink at you but in the meantime he will put It over if he can. That's Jim all over. John Spiro of Fort Wayne made a trip to Europe tills summer and when he arrived home this week, the officers arrested him because they had found a quantity of liquor in his soft drink parlor ami his rooms. He says of course he didn’t know it was there and had nothing to do with it and now the court will decide whether a man is liable for ids business when he is three or four thousand miles away. Most any body would be satisfied to be cither governor of New Hampshire or senator representing that state Hint not so with Albert Wellington who filed as the democratic candidate for both jobs and landed them. He is eightyfour years old, a millionaire and stands a very good chance of winning in the general election. He says if he does he will serve as governor long enough to inaugurate some theories of economy and then qualify as senator. Major Campbell, former prohibition administrator in New York City has let another cat out of the bag. Ha says that during the last presidential campaign when Mr. Hoover was declaring the prohibition law a noble experiment, he was ordered to “loosen up brewery supervision” so the Manhatans could quench their thirst and be in better spirits on election day. Thats the old trick of playing it both ways from the middle. Os course the.democratic publicity department will be called unethical if they mention it. The state tax survey yesterday received suggestions for reducing taxes and many of them ought to be followed, while of course some were rather ridiculous. In the list of reductions as suggested were abolishment of county infirmaries, abolishment of the county attendance officers, of the trustees and assessors, salaries of teachers, various commissions, establishment of a imjll tax and making it necessary to show a receipt before you can vote and a hundred others. There is no doubt that many changes can be made and ought to be and will be unless it results in the usual hot air affair so frequent in government. The committee which has worked several months on the pioposition seems to be sane and fair and actually desirous of help ing the situation as regards taxes. Much will depend upon their report and of course on the leader--hip in the coming geneval assembly. o A ■ — —-— —— — -— - —< I Household Scrapbook By | ROBERTA LES Broken Needles Keep a can or box with close fitt ing lid as a receptacle for holding broken needles, discarded razor blades, and broken glass.
