TRYING IT AGAIN: The precise design of the Republican campaign has become one to frighten the people into re-electing Mr. Hoover to the presidency. On the stump, in the party newspapers and out of the mouth of Mr. Hoover himself we find this steady stream of prophecy that the defeat of the Republican nominee will spell perdition for the United States. This is by ne. means new stuff, but seldom has it been employed with the intensity which now marks its use. There was a world of it in the campaign of 1596. And along with it was developed a recourse which up to that time had not had cpen and insolent practice in this country. Mark Hanna organized the railroads and other industry for the tyrannical purpose of coercing their employes to vote the Republican ticket. The great finan-
clal concerns were employed to sandbag and terrorize the smaller business interests t<\ the support of the Republican ticket. It worked and it worked very well. At this time the Republican effort is to give business a scare and mobilize it for support of Mr. Hoover. That is is the counsel of desperation no words are needed to prove. It times were good find conditions were happy that would be the spirit of the grand sweet sons and we should he hearing, as heard four years ago, that the Republican party had brought it all about and that to continue in the enjoyment of it the people had only to elect the Republican ticket. With the havoc of a panic all about, with millions of idle throughout the land, with agriculture prostrate, with business in the deepest slough it ever has known, with hunger and suffering stalking everywhere, tne eld story doesn't go down. The country now is told that except Mr. Hoover, whose administration gave auspices to this panic, be elected again we shall have much worse. The wonder is not great that important business Interests of the country have warned Mr. Hoover and his political management that this campaign of terrorism must cease if they do not want the responsibility of causing worse trouble than we are now in. Nobody should be deceived by the campaign of terrorism. Mr. Hoover end his parly brought on a panic and then trifled for two years with conditions. They must do something to save a desperate situation. To cause another panic before the first one is over appears to be their Character Business Character is achieved only through < Oil J W. H.

This poster service is available for public and parochial schools alike, and they also supply the patrol belts and badges where needed ror patt'ols, and give instructional help, where possible, free of charge, according to officials of the association They slate that “each day, each month, each year, more people are being injured and killed in automobile accidents alone than during a similar period of time were injured or killed in the World War. Only the slaughter in this — our every-day. peace-time war —is not limited to soldiers, but reaches the children and all grown-ups alike." A number from here will join the thousands who will hear Franklin D. Roosevelt deliver his Indianapolis address tomorrow. He has started on his second long trip of the campaign, traveling through twelve states, having a combined strength of 215 electoral votes. One of the important matters upon which he is to touch during the trip, will be the much discussed bonus bill. He is being hailed every where as the next President and the people will await with interest his discussions upon various problems.
Claude E. Robinson, considered the greatest auditor of straw votes in the world has just completed an analysis which shows Roosevelt will win by a popular vote majority of about eight million and will carry all the states in the Union excepting four. Maine, New Hampdure. Vermont and Delaware and a couple of those by such slight majorities that they are unsafe. Ho gives Indiana to Roosevelt by 227,000 and Ohio by 276,000, New j York by 700,000 and California by 900.000. He states however that people may be mad when straw voting and become eased up by election day. Senator Norris. Repub'ican. of Nebraska.is campaigning for Roosevelt and his speeches are among! the most effective being made upon : either side. The westerner knows what he is talking about, can say , it and proves that his assertions are ' I sed upon truths. He declares: | ' A government by the people can- ' not exist when political parties are controlled by machines and bosses" and then proceeds to disclose the inside workings of the G. O.

* DON’T QUOTE ME~T ♦ (U.PJ — ♦ I Washington. Oct. 19. —dj.R)—Republicans everywhere are attempting to present President Hoover I in a more "human" role. David S.; Ingalls. Republican candidate foi . governor of Ohio, introduced Mr. j Hoover in Cleveland Saturday night with a speech telling of the [ President’s sense of humor, bls, feeling for the big and little things ! that make up the life of the ordin-| ary man. Ingalls told of the establishment iof the Hoover school in the backI woods of Virginia, near the President's Rapidan camp. The school' was established. Ingalls said, after "a young mountaineer named Rayl McKinley" brought an oppossum to the President's camp. The oppossum incident occurred three years ago. It was a lad of nine named Ray Burraker, not McKinley. who appeared at the camp one evening lugging the animal. His father had done some work for the Hoovers and the boy liked to play around the camp. He was giv en the honor of hoisting the American flag when the school was opened in the spring of 1930. The school still is in operation, doing a valuable work among the hill people. The attendance avert ages about 20. Several of the children had attended classes in the valleys below at one time or another and welcomed the opportunity to get their education nearer

He is unexcelled as a laugh-getter and in “The Wet Parade” he showed he r j can do dramatic scenes as well. What sold him more than anything else, however, is the way he took “The Phantom President” right away from George M. Cohan. That, considers Hollywood, was I quite a trick. Among the better wisecracks of i the week wat that one about the I serial star who is always getting! hurt in his pictures. Hearing of a new mishap, a wtg : remarked: “The trouble with the fellow is you never can tell whether he is lame or just strutting.” BOULEVARD TOPICS: Rather amusing, that oversight of Douglas Fairbanks'.

Strother was editor of world’s work for many years. He knovfs his craft and is generally credited j with some of the passages of liter- ‘ ary excellence that have crept ■ into the recent Hoover speeches. ' Mr. Hoover also gets many of' ' his ideas from bankers, business men, politicians and preachers 1 | whom he calls into conference ; when a speech is in Hie making.

BEES STRUGGLE TO SAVE HOME TERRE HAUTE. Ind. —A strange struggle over a hoarded ‘treasure is going on in this city. The principals are a hive of independent ta-es and a beekeeper. A tree bolds the "stake." Two years ago the bees swarmed in a little hollow tree in the downtown district and set to work storing honey. apparently unmindful of autos roaring by, or people crowding close to see. Walter ■ Bielfield. beekeeper, recently was given permission to move the swarm to his farm. It appeared impossible to salvage the honey without injuring the tree, for the single opening, oddly enough, was near the base of the tree and less than two feet from tne sidewalk. But Bielfield conceived a plan Ke placed a trap over the open ing. whereby the bees can leave but not re-enter. Then he placed a latent hive a few inches away. In 21 days young bees will be hatched in the new hive. Bielfield said. Then he intends removing Ute trap. The new bees, he believes, will re-enter tbe tree, "rob” it, and transport the honey out into their own hive. "Bees are terrible - rotlbers as well as great workers." Bielfield declared. Q_
