The candidates were working hard today, putting in the last licks for victory at the polls next Tnes- “ day. It won’t be long now. Hoosiers used four million gal- . lon more gas in April this year ithan we did in the same month last year. Guess every one was looking for a job. Under present conditions of business, volumn of course is less than before which means that we can only improve by using local manufactured and sold products. Concerted action will aid us all and this is the first necessity to eliminate oppression and its today’s answer to our success. Fort Wayne goes on daylight saving time tomorrow morning and will Continue so until the last Saturday of October. In this city we will vote next Tuesday to decide He whether or not we wish to continue as we have the past three years during Hfe five months beginning now and continuing through October. ’The council will act as directed by the referendum. The primary campaign is drawF® ing ifi a close. Il has been many year# since the candidates have worked as hard as they have this year® We are glad that it has been a clean and straight forward con- ■ test, jAt least that is true as far as we know. They will continue to for votes until six o'clock Tuesday evening and then the losers will congratu’ate the winners HE and we will be ready for the NoveniWr election. Seek those whose K qualifications you believe are best and work ami vote for them. That's good-citizenship. We have tried as usual to be fair with every canR didate and we are not espousing the cause of any individuals. Vote H for those you feel will serve best. Li nut. Massie and Mrs. Forescue, together with two seamen were finally convicted of manslaughter ‘ in the famous honor slaying case reS at Honolulu, the jury having deliberated about forty-nine hours. While general opinion seems-to bo that these people did know abo.it and pt rhaps executed Joe Kahahawai. it was also the general belief -'m that they would be freed on the time cid right to detent*. honor. ’d* They were accused of murdering Ji® Kahahawai, after the latter hail confessed he had assaulted Mrs. fK Massie. The verdict was of course HI one 'of those compromises which jJ| not seeni fair lor ' s assured by the morn than two full days reqiiireii, that it was not an agreed |fi verdict except for the release of

the jurors. The verdict recommends leniency and that will probably bo forthcoming, when sentence is passed next week. A movement that is gathering force Is the back-to-the-farm movement of a large number of people who have been attracted to the various cities of the country because ot high wages, the amusements and other so-called advantages of the city. They have found, with the present unemployment situation confronting them, that they are unable to make a living there. That being the case, they have concluded to move back to the farm or smaller towns of the country, where they came from and where they were able to earn a comfortable and respectable living l:y farming, fruit raising, dairying and poultry business, A family can make a real living and enjoy the necessities and comforts ot life on a small farm by a moderate amount of wholesome work and economical management. The back-to-the-farm movement is going to get a large number of families hack to the farm this year.—NewAlbany Tribune. This is truly the age of advertising. and ever expanding advertising. One, who counts himself among the "common people," on reading the advertisements in his newspaper remarked that it is dangerous to the purse to read the advertisements too carefully be- < ause you can not even scan them without finding something you want and at a price and of a quality you can’t afford not to take advantage of. It can not be charged against newspaper advertisements that they force upon the public unwanted merchandise. They do, however, inform the "public where their merchandise wants can be fulfilled and at the lowest cost. The public, with the assistance of newspaper advertising, is now able to buy intelligently and expeditiously. Before the buyer enters the store he ar she knows where the desired articles may be purchased and where the most favorable prices arc, obtainable. Newspaper advertisements have eradicated the hit and miss and the hurry and scurry from shopping. Fitly years ago the United States was playing the role of "frontier’’ to the world. Today there are 8.000.000 square miles of frontier country in the world but only a few of them are in the United States —the extreme marginal land of western Kansas, eastern Colorado, and parts of New Mexico, Montana. Arizona and Nevada. Only a century ago fully half of the United States was wilderness know-n only to the Indians and a few white trappers. As recently as 50 years -ago it offered unlimited pioneering in fertile valleys, rich p a ins and dense forests. Twentyfive years ago the frontier days were already dead. The country could not wait until the last of the public lands hid been turned into cities, ranches, farms or forest reserves. Never before had so vast a country known such swift expansion and development. Today the public realizes the old frontier days are gone forever, but it cannot understand why that should react unfavorably against the prosperity and economic stability of the nation. That is because the people of this generation do not appreciate the greit contribution to the nation’s mu-mess ot a irontier rapidly pushing forward. More and more America must look to distant frontiers for business. Frontiers have been called breeding places of lawlessness. Rather they were to the lawless what sugar is to flies. Were there frontiers to beckon and hold them, the gang sters probably would not be preying upon our cities. o VOTE For Mrs. Ella Peoples for Recorder. One term only.
