Yes, it's been the Hoover program which has helped business, farming, unemployment and other ills so much, according to the Republican candidates and orators. They even have riots up in Newfound'and. not because they can’t work or don’t want to work, but because the government reduced the dote 25 per cent. An idle person wiil think of a lot of things to do. Well one fellow got his job back up at Gary and it seems to be as big a tffivs item as if he were appointed ambassador to the court of St. Jalaps. He was reinstated in the postal service. Suits, pants, sweaters, underwear, these are the things that the local relief committee needs now. Look through the closet amkziee if you can't find something suitable in wearing apparel for boys. County Democrats will organize for the campaign at a meeting to be held here Saturday evening. The precinct committeemen and candidates will attend, make plans for opening of headquarters and select some one to be in charge until the election. in connection with the band concert program next Tuesday, local merchants will sponsor a treasure hunt. Valuable articles of merchandise will be given away. You are invited, to visit the stores, enjoy the concert and participate in the treasure hunt.

The Fort Wayne News-Sentinel's comment on Springer’s expounding of the Republican national and state prohibition planks was confined to one small paragraph and L something seems to tell ua that they hated to give it that much space. Tile deer are becoming so numerous in Minnesota that a farmer has ! complained to the governor unless , the animals are shut up that he'll > turn his pigs loose on the capitol lawns. What he better do is sell the pigs, fence in the deer and invite hunters to come shoot a buck at so much per. Next Monday the election in Maine will be held and although it is conceded that the Republican ticket will win in this old rock-rib-bed Republican state, you may be surprised over the defection in Republican ranks. The tide began to change two years ago and the Lord knows there has not been anything to change that tendancy now. As double attractions at the state fair yesterday. Republican and Democrat members of the legislature, Governor Leslie and Lieut. Governor Bush visited the big show, made speeches, drank red , lemonade, swapped stories and en- i joyed old fashioned Hoosier hospitality with the thousands of visit- , ors. Indiana boasts of one of the finest state fairs in the country. < Have you gone through the closets and store-rooms in search of a few cast-off clothes which a less fortunate person might make use of? Right now the local relief committee needs clothing for boys and it will be appreciated if you'll bring the articles to headquarters or notify those in charge. The sorry part about it is that several boys will be prevented from attending school unless proper clothing is furnished them and the community cannot and will not permit such a condition to exist. New Y'ork seems to like Mayor McKee and that gentleman is taking holAof things in a big way. He ordiTbd all salaries over $12,000 to be reduced to that figure, saving about two million dollars of the taxpayer's money and instructed the director of the budget to prune the tentative figure about one-third. Apparently he is given full public support and the press of the city is back of him solidly. Politically he seems to have the upper hand over Tammany and its looks like the able Scotsman was a <Yoer and a winner. Jimmy Walker may learn the truth of the old political saying. “A hero today and a tramp tomorrow," not meaning however that Jimmy will ever be a vagabond, bat out of luck when it comes to being the big boss.
