The Legion is having its annual battle this week and they tell us we haven’t seen any politics until we watch these ’live wires” pull the strings. A forty cent tax rate in Decatur is something this year, more perhaps than the average (person thinks it is. To meet all the expenses during days like these and still reduce the tax levy five cents is a feat worth attracting your honest attenion. These are tine days and every one seems happier than they did during the period when we couldn't be comfortable because of the torrid temperatures. The rains have helped small garden produce and pasture so much that every one seems to have renewed hope. Keep smiling. Th campaign will soon be under way. Just now a few guns are being fired but it will be a month before the battle gets going at full blast. Keep your feet on the round and remember we are just in the midst of a reorganization plan that is designed to bring better times. Don’t muddy the water. The terms of President Wilson and President Hoover were made useless in the final days because they were not given a congress to support them. Don't make that mistake this year. Conditions are not what you would have them but we are on the way and another two years should bring us well out of the depths. Support Minton and Farley in the program to help. With the G. E. going full tilt and the sugar factory getting ready, with the Subsistence Home building to start soon and with everybody pepped up, the next several months should be good ones here. The corn and hog money will be here in a few weeks and all together we have much to make us start the fall business campaign with energy and hope. Right now is the time to start your fall advertising campaign. It's the medium which keeps your name before the 'public and is your ace salesman. Try a four month's contract with your home paper and notice the difference in your total receipts. Tell the folks what you

I have and tell them In such a manner as to interest them and your business will be sura to click. More than four million men have been put back to work the past year and plans are being formulated to put that many more on before cold weather comes, which is a better showing than we had a right to expect. Don't disturb the organization which Is now working for your interests. Vote and work for Minton for senator and Farley for congress. They will support the President. The death of Uriah Cramer removes one of the pioneer residents of this city and a man active in the manufacturing business in this community 60 years ago. The older folks recall the "days back when” when the horse and buggy was the popular means of travel. Mr. Cramer operated a wagon shop back in the seventies and at that time that line was a principal industry here. The county fair and the state fair may not be jnst the same Institution as a quarter century ago, but they still provide the best meeting places for friends, where you can visit, learn what the others are doing, see modern machinery, watch the horses cut around the track and otherwise enjoy yourselves to the limit. The Indiana state fair, biggest event of its kind in the middle west will open Saturday. Fort Wayne didn't make much of a fuss over the burial of Homer Van Meter, a member of the Dillinger gang who "got his” when he bumped into a police squad at St. Paul last week. There is no good reason why these bandits should he played up as heroes and we seem finally to be reaching that conclusion generally. They were I a bad lot and the only way to protect society is to clean them out. That has been done and the book is closed. Indiana farmers should compare their lot with those in other states, such as Kansas, Nebraska. Oklahoma, Missouri and the northwest. On thousands of square miles iu those states there is hardly any living vegetation. Evfen trees in forests have died. Indiana had some bad luck, btft the rains came and the weather moderated, and a tour of the state now shows indications of abundance. Rain came in time to save the tomato crop and there will be a large yield. The wheat crop averaged much higher than was expected; corn is in fine condition throughout most of the state; melons have yielded well and are of unusually high quality; alfalfa is making up for the shortage in some other forage crops and the pastures are green again. Tourists who have been through the drouth-stricken western states regard Indiana as extremely fortunate. When they hear complaints they advise a prayer of thanksgiving, for although some conditions may be unsatisfactory, the general average is so high that the state is one of the garden spots of the world. — Indianapolis News.

ican shipping due to high costs has been unable to compete with foreign lines. In the early colonial days, Yankee shippers were world famous for their enterprise, but not until the outbreak of the great war did the U.
