If it takes the republicans as long to get over this depression as j it did the democrats to outlive the one of 1593, there are some bright and happy days ahead for the followers of Jefferson and from the number of candidates, state and national, looks as though about all of them were figuring it that way. Times are a little tough but surely not as bad as this: A father took his small son into a toystore and the lad was very much taken with a miniature train and asked for it. “Alright," said the father, "but just wait until tomorrow. I might be able to buy the New York Central for you.” Tickets fyr the democratic ban-1 qilbt' ami speakfest to be held here | March 10th are going like proverbial "tot cakes’. If you want to have the best time you ever had at a political meeting and want to hear the various candidates, dis trict and state, get a ticket for yourself and the missus and get teady to come in and meet all the folks. Mrs. Judd is to lie hanged May lllh Judge Speakman in the Phoenix. Arizona, court passed the sentence on her this week after' she had denied that she is a murderer. She offered some new ideas but the court told her she should have given her entire evidence during the trial Folks in general feel sorry for her parents but haven’t much sympathy for this gin drinking young lady. John Fredericks, Kokomo, is the; newest entrant in the race for tin ! democratic nomination for the gov-[ ernorship and while a little late as I compared to the others after this I honor he may make that up by do-|. ing intensive work after he starts. Mr. McNutt has been forming an organization the past two or three years and Mr. Posey has been at it , since the first of the year. However the nomination will be decided in convention and you never can tell just what will happen. Governor Murray of Oklahoma in his tour of Indiana impressed many who thought he was just a wild wji broncho buster. He has put up quite an argument and denie s j he is a radic-il. He believes in the constitution of his state and of the I’nited Slates and tries to. follow it io the letter. After a rather violent condemnation of Mr. Hoover he add:: ‘A man that can drain, ditch and dam a country iu tJixec years is a great, engtneerext:ti if he isn’t a statesman." -The I.il' rary Digest poll on pro Libitum indicates that the country ia-Utlmut three to one in favor of the repeal of the eighteenth amendment.

preference that way of about two to one and not a single state so far reported favors continuation of the present system. There is a de- '• dded growth in sentiment the past . two years according to these re- '. ports and if this continues another 1 year there Is indication that it will be 11)0% favorable to a law that j can be or rather will be enforced. ) J. _■ 2. Li. ’ We are assured by Colonel Galj lagher that every thing looks en- • couraging fur operation of the sugar factory here but says: “There are many details to correlate and quite a few formidable legal documents to be drawn up and signed before we can really go ahead.” He adds, also: “I do not think any thing can come up at the present time that might interfere with the operation of the Decatur plant as we are practically in agreement on the lease terms but the actual papers must be submitted to the attorneys for their manicuring touch and there are naturally some details." Just be patient a few more days and every thing will be ready to make the official announcement. While fixing the valuation on real estate, those who favor a fifty per cent reduction should remember that such a drop might seriously effect every mortgage if a renewal ' is desired and would lessen the I credit of each individual as well as ' the township or county in which j he lives. Fix these valuations at fair cash values and without effort to dodge what is right. Os course , every saving possible should be L made but we must pay our debts and keep the ship moving and that i requires a certain sum of money—in this county for next year about ( $600,000. laiwer valuations may in- 1 jure and it woun’t save much in 1 taxes tor the rate must necessarily i |be boosted to meet the demand. < We hope the greatest care is used in so fixing values in this city and county that all will feel the distri- ; button of the burden has been just | and fair. That’s the best we can ' do. Answers To Test Questions Eelow are the answers to the | I Test Questions printed | on Page Two. ' I < • 4 i 1. Six years. 2. Sir Isaac Newton. Sandwich Islands. j 4.

VITAMIN B IN BRAN, RESEARCHREVEALS Also Has “Bulk" to Further Assist Elimination, and Iron for Blood One of the functions of Vitamin B is to help tone the intestinal tract, and promote elimination. Now, laboratory experiments show Kellogg’s All-Bran contains this valuable vitamin. In addition, All-Br\v brings a plentiful supply of "bulk ’ — which provides the “ballast” needed to exercise the intestines. This “bulk” in All-Bran is similar to that of lettuce. Inside the body, it is different from the way you sec it in the package. It absorbs moisture, and forms a soft mass which gently clears the intestines of wastes. Special cooking processes make All-Bran finer, milder, more palatable. Another healthful element brought by All-Bran is iron. Tests show this cereal has twice as much usable iron as the same weight of beef liver. Check common constipation — with its frequent headaches, loss of appetite and energy —by eating this delicious cereal. How much pleasanter than taking pills and drugs — so often habit-forming. Just eat two tablespoonfuls daily — sufficient to overcome most types of constipation. If your intestinal trouble is not relieved this way, see your doctor.
