If the Republicans want a progressive they will take Senator Borah as their nominee. The General Electric works in this city is speeding up again to ■lO hours a week, employing nearly , 400 persons. Business is good and the outlook is bright. The meetings sponsored by the Central Sugar company for the farmers in the Decatur territory are being well attended, despite the cold weather. The sessions are interesting and helpful to all and serve to create a spirit of cooperation between producer and manufacturer. The appointment of Mrs. Huey Long to the senate is no doubt a stroke on the part of the governor to hold the late senator’s following in Louisiana. Like tieing to a woman's apron strings Tit gesture is purely political and proof that the state is being run more for the benefit of the old Long machine than for the people as a whole. The many friends of Mrs. David E. Smith in this city regret to learn of her death. A resident of Decatur during the greater part of her life, Mrs. Smith was endeared to many through her sincerity in church and lodge work, her ’ove for her home and family and her general lovable and kind disposition. To the family, the Adams county friends, extend sympathies. Despite valiant efforts of firemen and the efficiency ot equipment, it is almost impossible to combat those towns where flames sweep through a whole block before brought under control, the below zero temperature handicapping firemen in their efforts to put out the blaze. Communities will breath a sigh of relief when the ice and cold weather is referred to as “way back when." The judge hearing the petition of Mrs. Gloria Vanderbilt for an additional allowance of $1,879 to 1 pay bills for cigarettes, sparkling 1 water, cocktail shakers and cosmetics for little Gloria, ruled wisely in denying the request.

This message was emphasized yesterday by one who before he realized it. lived a life of crime and paid for it by spending 1# years in reformatories and state prisons. Mr. Colvey came through better than moat of the men who leave penal institutions. He evidently was a good man at heart and not criminally minded. His attitude now shows that. His advice to the youth of today is to go straight. It's an easier aud happier way. Work will start in a short time on the building of the new Geneva ' school house, a modern, efficient structure. The residents ot the town, township and in fact the whole county will be proud of it. The new building replaces the old; structure, condemned as unsafe. In this country no child should be - subjected to. the hazards of an unI safe school building and the action i taken in Wabash township is proof that the taxpayers and public officials are ot the same opinion. No one is moved, much less thrilled with the platforms and announcements of the men who are 'seeking the Republican nomination j for president.. They all try to take a stand against* Roosevelt, hesitate along some lines, create bugaboos about Communism and dictatorship. Their speeches sound futile to the average person. In one line they say they favor relief for the needy, pensions for the aged, a I farm program aud then turn ■ around and talk of the evils of - government expense, how the i budget can be balanced and all ; that.
