Thats | great, but gosh all hemlock about i every one will he worn out long be-1 fore that. Another very usual sight out ' west, we hear, is the old timer rem- . iniscing over the days when Republicans roamed the plains in I countless multitudes. — Arkansas I Gazette. A Georgia paper tells of a woman I down that way who has lived to ' the age of 101 without seeing any , automobiles and a wise cracker! adds that if she sees them in time she may live longer. Crowds of boys and young men have already started Hallowe'en pranks, some of them rather rough. Chief Melchi has issued a warning to them to desist and if the practises arc continued some of the lads will get into difficulties. “If Rooseve't were to be removed from the picture, it would be President Garner,’’ croaks the Fort | Wayne News-Sentinel. Yes, and if President Hoover should get off the reel, it would be President Curtis. And wouldn't that be something in this .strenuous hour?
For some reason or other most of the Republican newspapers did I not know that James E. Reed made a speech in Des Moines the other evening or at least they did not give any evidence of it. Just the •same the people know it and many of them can quote what he said on a number of important issues. ■w - ■— w --- Calvin Coolidge spoke to a large audience in Madison Square (lard | on, New York City, advocating the re-election of President Hoover, but he did it in such away that most listeners felt he was just trying to iay his party a little debt which he felt he owed them for his j twenty-one offices which lie has ! has held during his life. The Literary Digest straw vote now covers thirty-eight states and a total of two million votes have been canvassed. The results show thirty-one are [or Roosevelt with 356 electoral votes and seven for Hoover with fifty-seven electoral votes. The total figures give Hoo ver 781,431 and Roosevelt 1,062,<'S7 Thom.u. on the Socialist tic-I ket has 106,352, indicating his vote j will be much greater than that 1 party ever polled before.

quested to cull before the big rush is on. Treasurer John Wechter is anxious tn serve you to the very best of his ability and will do so and since the new law requires a ' special receipt, taking some time, it will make it much easier for the • office force and better for the t patron, to take care of it when there is plenty of time. 1 The rally tat Berne on the 24th 1 , will be one of the outstanding ones 1 in this part of the state. Senator ( Gottschalk will act as the genera! 1 chairman and already the committees have been appointed and have started to work. There will be a parade, plenty of music, a program of interest with Mrs. Ruth BryanOwens as the principal speaker. James I Farley and all the candidates from this county will be presented. Delegations are expected ' from every precinct. Join the | crowd. i Fred VanNuys, outstanding Democrat in Indiana and the candidate against James E. Watson for the United States senate will visit Decatur at ten o'clock the morning of ■October 26th. That's a little early | lor a political meeting but we are sure there will be several hundred 1 people who will welcome the oppor- | tunity to hear this loader. He is ! making a vigorous campaign and ■ will receive the support of thousands of Republicans who are tired lof the old leadership. Keep the ' date in mind and be sure to attend. Detailed plans will be announced soon. As expected, the drastic tax re- i ductions in this city and county have caused many discussions. Os course opinion is divided but there seems to be a general feeling that the rate should be fixed at the very lowest point possible and that every effort should be made to meet the demands. It is likely that the I January session of the legislature I will provide some remedies and in the meantime, all that can be done is to smile. This is a great counit ry and eventually we wi’l get squared away and be ready for the upward climb.

Like wives, they borf row each others’ stars across the jsjCirjS back fence. And there are mighty X JB few reserva1 lions. I Y e s t e r day, flp' for instance, O \ H Warner Brothj|Mi e r s presented '■K&. A i’-'' amou nt with W their romantic ace, George George Ure nt . He’ll Brent COme over to <0 one picture, a talkie version of Gina novel, "The Crossing.” For screen purposes. however, they’ll be changing the title to “Luxury Liner.” Just as you might suspect, this is a story of the adventures of a group of people on one of those floating palaces plying between Europe and | New York. You’ll recall Fox made a swell melodrama of this sort j called “Transatlantic.” But there’ll j be no similarity in the two films. I Scenarists Gene Markey and Kathryn Scola will see to that. A word about George Brent. For j » while, fans were promised that Ruth Chatterton and her handsome | husband would appear in the same i picture. Then he was taken out. I Some excuse was given that he could not finish another assignment. Actually, I predict, Mr. Brent a.-.d Miss Chatterton never will appear together on the screen again She has a theory it would destroy part of the illusion for the fan. And she may be right. How about it? — ' It’s a swell story they tell about Marie Dressier and a member of the bankers’ convention new meeting I here. i The other day the prominent gentleman called Marie on the phone. He told her he knew her back in the days when she was selling Liberty bonds and would like to come out and see her. He asked her to set a day. Marie said she was working that afternoon Cut how about tomorrow? • “Great," replied the financier, "and by the way, how far a trolley ride is it from my hotel to your studio?’’ ZOUI.FVARD TOPICS.
