Well a few smiles will help and ; after all that's the way to take it. | It is quite evident again that the voters know how to split their tickets and that a good many enjoy doing it If the average person would take as much interest in election campaigns as they do in getting the results, the outcome would fre-1 quently be different. The VanNuys and Willis battle reminded old timers of the elec-1 tion of 1916, when returns were received for days while California counted votes to decide it. Now every one will have more time to give to the football games. The battles the next two weeks are important and for those who enjoy this great sport will furnish a million thrills. Wells county again proved its right to her claim of being the strongest Democratic county in the district. It was "the only one to return a majority for Congressman Farley, his vote exceeding that of Mr. Gillie by 46. Indications are that Indiana will again have a divided legislature with the Democrats holding a majority in the senate and the Republicans having the edge in the lower house, which probably means there will not be much legislation of importance enacted. Pep up on the factory fund and det's complete the campaign to •raise SIO,OOO for a great cause. A .hundred men wish to return to .work and we can have the best jdant of its kind in the middle west. It ought to be done this week. Republicans were probably more 1 ■eurprised by election results than the Democrats but the final count jipset every poll and every straw vote taken by either side, indicating that a lot of voters really make | up their minds how to vote after they get in the booths. Officers of the Krick-Tyndall company are hurrying plans to start work on the new plant here. There tare still several hundred dollars needed to complete the to-

1 tai hut every one feels sure that thia will be subscribed the next few days. It is hoped that within a few days arrangements can be rushed along so that work may start immediately. That will be wonderful. Thousands listened to and read the returns of the election as they were received at this office and communicated by a loud speaker system, installed by Marcellus Miller. to headquarters. Every effort was made to get the news from the city, county, townships, district, state and nation and several thousand telephone calls were answered during the night. It's a part of the service of a newspaper that we know is appreciated. We have been taught again that ' predictions and polls and strawvotes and surveys taken during a i campaign indicate little. Four years ago a national magazine predicted the election of Landon by a landslide, showing straw votes I from every state. The result was | the great vote given Mr. Roosevelt and the Democrats in general. This year polls as published indicated ‘ a slight turn to the Republicans t but gave no evidence of the gen- 1 eral upset. It's hard to predict.' how people will vote when evident-. ly they don't know themselves in i many cases. A woman wrote to Jacob Riis. ■ once famous as a newspaper man ■ and social w orker, at d told him i she had always admired Theodore’ Roosevelt until she had heard that he said "Damn" when he led his, men up San Juan Hill. If that , were so she would regretfully be compelled to change her opinion of Colonel Roosevelt. Roger William Riis said his father was ask- i ed to verify this upsetting rumor. The father's impatient answer was confined’to this. "Dear Madam: I do not know whether Colonel ; Roosevelt said 'Damn when he went up San Juan Hill, but I know thatVdid when I read yonr letter." — Mergenthaler's Shining Lines. The sudden death of Fred T. I Sehurger. well known attorney realtor and abstractor, has shocked this community in which he was admired, respected and loved by so many. A leading figure here for years, he was active in many ' of the things which aid. He had worked strenuously over the elec-1 tion period and had put in a difficult day yesterday. Though never married he had continued to main-| tain the old homestead just west of town and had provided a wond-. erful home for a number of rela-' tives and other children. Big hearted, a hard worker, a good mixer. Fred was deservedly popular in all classes of people. He will be greatly missed and thousands mount the loss of one of the county's finest citizens. ■MMMawaaaMa The defeat of James I. Farley for congress seems complete and certain in its size and every one will wish Mr. Gillie success and accomplishment, but many still believe that the services of Mr. Farley have been largely underestimated by the voters, who permitted themselves to be led off by trivial accusations. Mr. Farley has done much for the fourth district and his successor will have many demands which he will find difficult to meet. Few congressmen in the United States have been able to secure as many grants tor public improvements as have come to i the fourth district. We will no' doubt find this more difficult now ’ as Mr. Gillie learns the duties of | his important job. Mr. Farley has ! done a good job and deserves much more credit than was indicated in | the recent election. Politics has quit the Hoosier stage, not to be a return engagement until 1940. Most people will enjoy the two-year respite from political arguments. However, as inescapable as taxes and death is politics, and it will be only a lew

PRESIDENT OF ! TURKS IS DEAD Kemal Ataturk. President Since 1923, Dies Today . Istanbul. Turkey, Nov. 10.— (U.R) —Kemal Ataturk. 58, father of the Turkish republic and its president since its inauguration in 1923, died today. The government, which had feared that he could not rex-over after a relapse suffered yesterday, at once proclaimed Abdul Halik Renda. president of the national assembly, provisional president in accordance with the constitution. It was announced that the national assembly would elect a new president as provided by the constitution. to succeed Ataturk, whose fourth term would have ex- f pired March 1, 1939. All social and public fiructions were canceled in mourning for Atatnrk. Among the first of the modern dictators, he had ruled Turkey since shortly after the World war. He raised it from an Oriental despotism to a respected modern republic. In his personal life he had defied all the rules. He drank, he gambled, he reveled. Four months ago, his years of hard work for many hours each day followed by strenuous relaxation. caused his constitution to tail, e suffered a liver atiatk that had kept him intermittently bed ' ridden since. His condition became alarming ‘ Oct. 16, when Turks were prepar- ; ing to honor him on the occasion oi”The 15tb anniversary of the re- ' publk-. He rallied and was considered out of danger four days j later. Tuesday he suffered a re--1 lapse and failed to rally. He died at 9:05 a. m. today (1:05

I a. m. CST). His donth plunged the country into tnoaming. for he was almost without opposition and was the national hero. Police and troops were ready to suppress any outbreaks. Long before Adolf Hitler was known except as an object of derision. Chazi Mustapha Kemal Ifasha as he was called then, was tearing up the World war treaties. Turkey was a loser in the war. though Kemal himself by his brilliant strategy and tactics had stopped the allies at Dardanelles. Kemal and the men around him decided that the sultan must go He led the school that demanded’ unqualified rejection of the World war treaties, and war against the allied world if necessary. He hurled into the sea a Greek army which invaded Anatolia with allied approval and in 1923. throwing nut the snltan. he became the first president of the infant Turkish republic. His firmness and his genius in f reorganizing his country, Kemal defeated every effort to penalize Turkey for its participation in the World war. He made friends with the nations whose friendship would be valuable to Turkey. He reorganized the army, the government, the national culture. .He' abolished the Caliphate which had made Constantinople, as Istanbul then was, the center iof the Mohammedan world. He forbade polygamy. He forbade men to wear the traditional fez and women to wear veils. He invented a Latin alphabet to supplant the Arabic one. He Europeanized music. He bnilt a newcapital at Ankara. He organized ; industry and banking, modernized agriculture, balanced budgets, built > railroads. Afaturk loved many women. : During the early day of his powI er, the nation acclaimed his ro- : mance with Latifem Hanoum, 18 years his junior, daughter of a shipowner and one of the country's first modern women.

But she proved too modern for Ataturk. He regarded her as inclined to be too i masterful, and divorced her by presidential decree in 1924 after two years. After that Kemal lived as a bachelor, but as a gay one.
