McNutt, I next governor of Indiana, here the night of October sth. He will tell you the truth. __ _ The Literary Digest's first straw | i poll gives Pennsylvania. Ohio and West Virginia to the Democrats. Why not make it unanimous? < The county council lopped SB,368 off the county budget and if there is anything for any tax payer to complain about we don't know t what it is. A hunch of Democrats will meet ' ai beadquarters here tonight to i complete plans for the McNutt teeting to be held here the night t of October sth. All interested are < invited to attend and participate. ( Wet or dry. Republican or Democrat, •merchant, laborer, farmer or what you are. you ought to be in- 1 terqtjted in Governor Roosevelt’s. promise of a new eight-point deal. i We sure need it. f The evidence in the case of Sen- < ator Davis seems to be tightening ...» » and this man who climbed the lad- < der of success, is in a tight hole. Its easv to get there when condi- ! 1 tions tighten as they have and < v heir a fellow gets to interfering t with some one politically. < < Now the Lafollettes are mad over the recent primary in Wisconsin and propose to get even by joining < the Democrats. That's the wav it 11 goes in that game and indications j are that their forces linked with 1 Democrats, will cause a lot of grief for the Republican stand-patters. ', A Kongo tribe which set up a group government and enjoyed themselves quite a while finally got heavily into debt. By that time they had become partially civilized 1 It and so they held a caucus and de- j tided to return to the jungle where i they could be happy. Americans , can easily understand the impu’se. i

i The sooner the vagrancy ordinance is enforced, the better It will be. Every community must take care of Its own needy which Is enough these days. The boys on ' the road should go home where they are entitled to live. If they cannot get jobs, then its the local government's business to care for' them. That's not being hard hearted, just fair. The State Federation of Labor 1 for Indiana at their annual meet-1 ing in Fort Wayne recently, amid I a scene of wild enthusiasm, an- [ qualified!}’ indorsed Fred Van Nuys ■ for United States Senator as I against James E. Watson and from ‘ what we have heard of the meeting, | there was a ring of sincerity that ‘ proved they meant it. The state organization of Indiana . Democracy will start the speaking campaign next Tuesday evening' | at 830 when Chairman R. Earl Pet-1 t rs, vice-chairman. Mrs. A. P. Flynn ' and all candidates will speak over the radio. The major addresses ■ will be by Fred Van Nuys. candidate for United States senator and j Paul V. McNutt, nominee for gov-1 ernor. Tune in. It will be a big evening. Those who now declare the de-1 pression is due to the result in] Maine scarcely realize how silly I such a position is. Maine hasn't, been voting every week for three years and the only change in the general economic condition we can ree is the gradual decline. For tw T o or three weeks a united effort was made by Republican press and leaders to fake a come-back but it excited no one and those who proclaimed it were evidently only halfhearted. And if Mr. Coolidge now says he was a'armed over the speculation mania of 1928-29, “he kept the alarm very much to himself," reflects the New York Times. In j early January of 1929 many obser-, vers saw danger-signals in “the I dizzy increase in brokers' loans.” ’ But at that very time the Washington dispatches reported: “President, Coolidge is of the opinion that the record-breaking increase in brokers' loans is not large enough to cause unfavorable comment.” Governor Roosevelt in his ad- j dress on public utilities at Portland, made another big hit with the peo-1 p'e. Those who proclaimed that | he had no program and stood for, iittle are finding that quite the con-, trary he is a leader who promises , to give us a new deal. He told I what he had done as governor and how he had been accused of everything by those who selfishly oppose i his position and added “if that be treason, make the most of it.” Mr. Roosevelt is not a radical, but a man of the people with a lot of ! good, old-fashioned common sense: and the courage to state his posi-1 tion. He will be e'ected president I of the United States on November Sth, to the satisfaction of about every one excepting Mr. Hoover and a few “lame ducks." 0 TWENTY YEARS ’ AGO TODAY From the Daily Democrat File il ♦ - « Liscensed to w?d: Salome Agnes Rice and Milton Fuhrman.

He is Brig. Gen. Charles E. KitI bourne. He comes here from a I tour of duty as commander of thej harbor defenses at Manila. A large' i part of his life has been spent in 11he Phi ippine Islands. He served there first during the Spanish-Am' jCrican war as "a signal corps lieutenant. It was there he met Emilio i Aguinaldo — then aiding American troops as a young lieutenant of the J insurgent forces. — Kilbourne and his fellow signal- 1 jlers were stringing telegraph wires I between Paranaque and Cavite. I | They noticed that the Filipinos al-1 i ready had set up a line. The Atner-J icans tapped it here and there ■ where it paralleled their own. But ‘ when they tried to contact Cavite, ‘ they found the Filipino line had 1 been cut. They repaired it. It was! cut Kilbourne went to Aguinaldo’s camp nearby and protested. “We Americans have come 8,000 i ■ miles to free you from the Span-i lards,’’ Kilbourne said, "and you ‘ won’t even let us have a telegraph [ wire.’’ Aguinaldo looked up and observ- 1 ed: “I’m not ao sure you didn't come-, lhere to take the islands for your-: selves. And if you did. you're going to have a fight on your hands '■ that will make your war with Spain i [look like child's play.’’ ■ Aguinaldo was a good prophet.
