Have you some item of interest you would like to publish in the 'Centennial edition of the Daily Democrat? If so please send it in at once and we will be glad to use it. We notice a lot of tough looking travelers who seem to spend considerable time around the railroad yards here and it will be just as well if they are ordered to move on and if they neglect to obey, give ’em the boot. There is no question that a majority of the voters ot the United States wish President Roosevelt to continue his good work. Its only a case of whether or not the opposition can fool them into voting against their own best interests. In 1928 Al Smith thought so much of Franklin D. Roosevelt and his ability that he almost forced him on the ticket as a candidate for governor so he would aid him in carrying the state. What do you suppose has changed his mind? Centennial week is only a month and a half away and every one is down to real work now. Its going to be the biggest celebration of its kind ever staged here or in any town of similar size in the middle west, (let ready for the time of your life. Prices of stocks continue to go' up, business improves, more factories are running and in many extra shifts are necessary. Just I what is all the howl about the country going to sticks? It certainly looks better than it has for j years. Compare the Roosevelt ad- I ministration to the Hoover fouryears and use your own best judgment.

What's the need of a two-third i majority to nominate a Democratic candidate for the presidency? It usually ties up u convention and leaves the party in u bad way to go on with their light. Thia is a ; good time to change for there will I be no contest ou the nominations and it cannot be charged that it is being done for the special advantage of any one. When Mr. Roosevelt gets through 1 with the Liberty leaguers they ■ will feel at least as though they , hadn't frightened him or his sup-1 porters. They talk about taking away liberties and ruining the country but the great majority of people surely realize that only I those powerful interests which they represent, want to or can take away the old principles on which this nation was founded. if any of the big five of the Liberty League, Smith, Reed, Colby, j Cohalan or Ely attempts to present their ideas to the Philadelphia convention, they will be answered by enough boos to convince them that they haven't sold themI selves to the rank and file of the Democratic party. Just now they are off the reservation and their threat to “take a walk" hasn't alanned the leaders who know why and what they are doing. Most of those members of the* Liberty League who are bolting now are really not Democrats., They are independents who vote' as they please, but who of course ( will be referred to as the "real Democrats'' by the partisan G. O. i P. press. Colby and Reed have been off about as often as they j have been on, so has Hearst and a lot of the others. When they can’t run things they take their playthings and go home, so there is little to worry about there. No more loans can be made j through the Home Owners Loan Corporation, this branch having j been suspended as to loans, but Indiana has fared well. 49,509 loans were made in this state, totaling $112,090,000. Three billion dollars were loaned in the nation aud the money is now being paid back at the rate of $600,000 per day. The average home owner is honest, wants to pay aud is doing so, a good sign for future America. Think back four years and con-1 sider the bank condition in this country. Remember the day Mr. Roosevelt assumed office that seven federal banks were closed and only a few of the national aud state institutions were actually doing tiny business except making change? Recently the federal reserve made a report showing the financial structure of the United States to be the most stable in 1 history. After ail isn't that a test of making good? 0 ♦ STAR SIGNALS —by— I OCTAVINE " For persons who believe that hu-, 1 man destiny is guided by the planet, the daily b'-roecope Is outlined by a noted astrologer.
