Get in the parade Saturday night. Yon will enjoy it and it pays to show your colors. Wheraever Cliff Townsend goes he impresses the voters with his ability. He will make an excellent governor.. Be sure to plan to hear Harry* Woodring, secretary of war and. former governor of Kansas, when he speaks here Saturday evening. The meeting of the Democratic Womans club Thursday evening will be the high peak of that organisation in the campaign. Mrs. Olive Belden Lewis of Indianapolis will be the speaker. The reports from every corner of Indiana is that the outlook for a big Democratic victory is bright and those in charge are jubilant for they feel that the excellent conditions now existing, can continue. Mr. Hoover was elected on a platform of "two cars in every garage", but before he was fairly started in his administration. the ( average person didn't need a gar-| age and if he had one it looked* rather de lapidated. The important thing about the vote in Adams county this campaign, will be to get the voters to the polls. In each precinct a close organization should be formed to see that every eligible Democrat 1 gets to the voting place. We believe if every voter could listen to both Springer and Townsend. the latter would be elected by half a million. Springer deals in generalities while Townsend 1 tells you his position on the momentous questions and why. He also impresses you with his fairness and honesty. Senator Borah says, "If you don't think monopoly is an issue, differ with eastern interests. Tramp on their toes and tind out." And Borah knows. He was a candidate for the Republican nomination for president but never got to first base after he interviewed the eastern bosses. Repeal of the gross income tax would mean an increase of from 15c to 59c i>ei hundred on taxes for school purposes alone in Adams county, unless a sales tax is substituted and we are sure that no one who knows the inconvenience and the unfair cost of that sort of a tax. favors ft. There is no doubt about the results on election day if the Demoerats turn out. It is the duty of every citizen who believes in the people keeping control, to aratst in making this the largest vote m

■ the history of Adams county. With 11,300 registered, we ought to cast : better than 10,000 votes. ( Now some newspaper man claims that the final Digest straw vote 1 will show a 49% vote for Landon, j Well, if any one knows now what 4 the results will be in three weeks j from now, what's the use to conduct a straw vote. There is some-{ thing queer and "screwy” about ) the predictions this year. > Governor Landon's progressive j J ideas in the west and his con > ) servative policies advocated in the • east remind us of the story of the , community which wanted to build a new jail and held a mass meet,ing at which they resolved to build ! the new structure, to build it from the material in the old jail and not j to fake any material from the old jail until the new one was com , | pleted The United States is back on a , | new gold standard with Great Brit-1 1 ian and France and it is believed - the new plan will stabilize currencies over the world, start a new , flood of business to this country and in many ways, help to con tinue the prosperity which has been so noticeable the past fewmonths. President Roosevelt is a diplomat and is one of the best posted men on international asVrs in all the world. We know that a few business! men who have not given the tax problem as much thought as they b ijjtould are talking against the ad jninistration in Indiana, but we ] doubt if they would be pleased I ' either with a sales tax or a return j l of the burden to property taxes.' These same merchants are getting ; a lot of business these days from ■ Ohio because they have a sales j tax over there that is about as < popular us the small pox. The plot thickens—George Gal- ; hip. who managed the Literary < Digest straw votes in those cam- 1 paigns in which results of events were almost perfectly predicted is now in charge of the poll known as "The nation speaks." His forecast shows a Roosevelt victory i while that of the Digest is just the opposite. It will be interesting to j watch the results and to ascertain < whether or not the man and man- ■ j t i ner of operating these advance i 1 ' sheets have any thing to do with ' the correctness thereof. t CANDIDATE AND PUBLISHER: The following editorial appeared ' ( last week in the Scripps-Howard 1 chain of newspapers: < landidate Knox rat ■ Um ■ going to rum under the New Deal, j with insurance policies jeopardized , 1 But Publisher Knox, who runs ( the Chicago Daily News, is far | more cheerful. I Almost daily the people read and hear Candidate Knox’s words of woe Therefore, we think they also' ought to listen to Publisher Knox. So we quote from an advertisement for his Chicago paper, which he has just published in "Printer’s Ink", an advertising trade publication: “Here in Chicago, the world s second largest market, storekeepers are getting back their pre-depression smiles. People are milling in the streets —with crisp new packages under their arms. Cash registers jingling Trucks dunking. And. between the banks of Michigan Avenue, the old ‘Gold Stream of shiny new autos is at high tide again. Chicago is showing more comeback, faster than any spot on the map!" It would seem that Candidate i Knox isn’t exactly honest in what he tells the voters whose ballots be solicits, or else that Publisher Knox isn’t quite honest in what he tells the advertisers whose patron age he seeks. They both can’t be right. o — Haaor Belong* to Womaa Tt» pioneer dally psptr pub < lifted In Eng’snd tn ITH2 wu pub Hfhed by a woman

HOW THE FARMER WAS SOLD -DOW.X THE RIVER — The other night at Minneapolis Governor Landon was much upset , about the late of the American farmer. He feared the farmer was beI ing ruined by the reciprocal trade pacts negotiated by the Roosevelt j administration. He Mid: "The reciprocal trade agreements made by this administration j have not benefitted our fanners: they have hurt our farmers. They | have not regained his markets for him; they have taken more of his ' markets away, both at home and abroad. They have not caused him jto get better prices tor his products; they have prevented him from , getting as good prices as he otherwise would. “In a word, the reciprocal trade program of the present adniinisi nation has delayed recovery for our farmers. It has sold the American : farmer down the river.’’ It is interesting to see how the American farmer was "sold down i the river" during President Roosevelt’s administration. Perhaps the following table showing average prices for comparable quality when Mr. Roosevelt took office and similar prices for September, 1936. will throw some light on the subject; March. 1933 September. 1936 Wheat .48 sl.lß Corn — 27 1.13 Lard ,4v 1.15 , Hogs 37 - UH) Cattle 62 .70 Calves .50 1.15 Oats 17 .42 Rye ...._... ........ 33 .86 Barley .25 .So Butter .16 .33 Eggs (for storage 1 12 .25 Live Poultry 09 .14 Potatoes . 65 1.95 Cheese (American) 08 .17 So now you see how the farmer was "sold down the river. ’
