The days are much longer than a fortnight ago, groundhog day will soon be here, winter is half over and it won’t be long now. , When the 1935 legislature gets through the bandits are not going to find traveling in Indiana easy or comfortable and as a consequence, you won’t have much trouble with them. If you want to be a soldier of fortune you might slip down to Louisiana where there is some-' thing doing all the time and where' a revolution may break out at any i time. Perhaps they have caught' the fever of insurrection from their I neighbors in Mexico. — The parking problem has not been solved in Decatur, so if you. have any suggestions, bring them I out. The officials are anxious to I make such arrangements as will I please the most people and will appreciate any cooperation given them. An investigation of the cause of, the sinking of the liner Mohawk has been ordered and we would; like to ask what becomes of these investigations? After every catastrophe we have them but we rarely hear a report and certainly not often is any thing done that helps in any way. Among the various fraternal organizations in America none are more loyal or charitable than the B. P. O. E. it is fitting therefore [ that they send a memorial to con- ; gress, signed by millions, restating ■ their desire and determination to ’ support the government and to fight those forces bent on destruction. t - The grind through which Hauptmann is going today should show whether he has an iron nerve or is bluffing. The cross-examination is said to be the most severe in the history of the criminal annals of this country. Bruno gets along fairly well when his attorneys are leading him but he soon loses his temper when the other side gets him a little trustrated. The 1,376 registered voters in Adams county as well as that many •. ore who didn't even go to the trouble to qualify, have no complaint worth listening to as to how affairs are conducted. Wc have no complaint worth listening to as to how affairs are conducted. We have no patience with those who decline suffrage and then yell the loudest about how things are conducted. Mr. Bohannon of Jeffersonville has introduced a measure in tho house of representatives to reduce residence requirements in divorce cases to thirty days which is twelve days less than Nevsfla requires. We doubt that he can receive sufficient support to ever put it over and we are sure the decent folks ol Indiana wouldn't favor such a law If folks must have divorces, they certainly onirfif fn wa.it long etiOUgl to think it over seriously.

Ohio has a prison scandal which may grow as the Investigation ordad by Governor Davey proceeds. In the meantime Warden Thomas. 1 his wife and daughter who were in r i ;charge have been suspended for I thirty days while the facts are t gathered, in it charged they showi cd favoritism among the prisoners c I and that narcotics were circulated . to those who complied with re--1 quests. This is the twelfth investigation of the warden. I ■ ~ ) We hope every reader of the ’ Daily Democrat who is in arrears j on his subscription, if he receives > ’ the paper by mail, will renew the 1 ' next thirty days. This is to be a ' big year. Each day events are occurring that may have much to do with your destiny. We try to furnish you the news and at the low price of three dollars per year, less than an penny a day, you can afford to do without most any thing else better than your home paper. Senator Dickinson of lowa is to be the speaker at the meeting of I the Indiana Republican Editoral Association next month and those who attend the banquet will be told how the country is going to ' the dogs and that the only way to save it is to go back to the old Hoover policies of sitting steady in the boat. Dickinson is one of the few remaining standpatters and doesn’t believe in any of the new deal. It will be interesting to know how well he sells his a|idi- ■ cnee in Indiana. Eyes are turned towards the second district of Indiana wiiere a I special election will be held tomorrow to select a member of congress I to succeed the late Frederick Landis. Charles A. Halleck is the Rej publican nominee and George Dur- ; gan, former congressman, is fighting for a place as a Democrat. Durgan is for the Roosevelt policies i while Halleck is against them. The district is normally strongly Re- : publican, but friends of Durgan believe he has an excellent chance ! under the circumstances. o * STAR SIGNA LS* ByOCTA V I N E ♦ 4 For parsons who believe that huI man destiny is guided by the planets the daily horoscope is outlined by a noted astrologer.

When the seed is advertised for sale it is necessary for the seller to tag it with properly filled out Indiana seed tags in order to comply with the law, the same as is required of commercial seedsmen. I am writing you to request your cooperation in getting this information to the farmer. Perhaps, when an order is left with your advertising department, or with your job department for printing sales bills, you could see that this re- 1 quirement is called to the attention of the advertiser or farmers;
