Politics in Indiana will start to stir in the next few weeks and both Democrats and Republicans will busy themselves to acquire good candidates for all offices which are to be voted on next November. Indiana voters will elect a United States Senator, all 12 congressmen and numerous state offices starting with Secretary of state. A new state House of Representatives and half of the State Senators will be elected. Many prospective Adams county candidates are visiting the precincts, learning what opposition, if any they will have. Shortly after January 1, there no doubt Will be many announcements of candidacy. Usually in a year when there is unemployment there are more candidates. The primary elections this year should feature a good many spirited contests. t Judge Myles F. Parrish has ruled in ciscuit court that former police officer Dale Death is en'tlad to a rehearing on a charge . .dteucss tor which he was l.pwted some time ago and to i.hi-h he pleaded guilty in Mayor’s court. The higher Court held that Death could be re-tried and neither the defendant or state would be harmed, which is good reasoning. Mayors are ejected from the citizenry because their party feels they would make a good administrator and they do not claim to be judges. However there is a city court and the Mayor is the presiding judge of ' that court. The fact that Death pleaded guilty in Mayor’s court still does not take away his rights. The cause can be tried in Circuit Court and of course other charges related to the same drunken offense can be brought before the grand jury which meets soon. The discharge of peath from the police force has- no connection with his plea of guilty and the change of that plea*. The only case now before the'Court is whether he was publicly intoxicated. It will be dlspuaud of goon.

Senator at least temporarily gladdened the hearts of many proud Hoosiers who have been compelled to apologize and blush at many stupid and silly .. statements made by the Indiana Senainr. The announcement is not surprising. Sen. Jenner always has had a deep desire to be Governor of Indiana. That dream of someday sitting in the Florida sunshine like GOP Sherwood and GOP Sayer is probably still in the Jenner mind and he no doubt feels that he would have a better opportunity coming from the rank and file since most of the Republican leaders have been under fire.

I’ll send Scobie to help.” She made the suggestion Lightly, as if it had only Just Occurred to her, as if she had not been trying for an hour to devise away to remove Scobie from the vicinity of the coachhouse for a few minutes. “You can send him,” said Joyce, "but he won't come. If he gives you an answer at all it will be that it’s not his work.” “Well see,” said Deborah, tightening her Ups. Scobie, in shirt sleeves, was kneeling by th® lawnmower, giving it a squirt of oil. He squinted at her dourly when she made the request He seemed about to give her a caustic and probably profane answer.. "Mrs. Monteith is waiting,” said Deborah, assuming a brisk executive tone. • Scobie only gave a grunt before shuffling off to the front of the house. The instant he was out of sight, Deborah ran to the coachhouse. The man's jacket hung there from a rusty nail. She tried one of the pockets, making a face when her groping fingers encountered a moist wedge of chewing tobacco. In the other, she found the folded sheet of foolscap on which he had been pasting printed words when she discovered him in the basement Going further into the gloomy interior of the coachhouse, she spread the paper on a dusty work bench. It was unmistakably a blackmailing note but there was no indication for whom is was intended. The words were of varying sizes and types, clipped from headlines, advertisements, news columns, wherever the man found the one he needed. They were stuck on at uneven angles, making them awkward to read coherently, but Deborah persevered until she made sense of them. White spaces had been left in place of punctuation. The note ran: "I have got it You no what Have plenty cash ready Win let you no what it will cost you no good trying to find It I have got it weH hid.” It was signed "Never mind who.” • ° Hearing footsteps grating on gravel, Deborah hastily refolded the paper and replaced it Before she could slip out of the coachhouse, the footsteps had come disconcertingly close. Going to the far wall, she pretended to be looking for something. She heard

“I know, I know. Oh, don't you think I know?” Turning slowly, Joyce looked piteously at Deborah. "But Enid is my friend. There are times when she annoys me beyond endurance, but she’s still my friend. And Bill is all she Uvea for. Without him, she has nothing. Nothing.” “You’re thinking of yourself and Ewan.” "Os course I am. It’s like that with us. You don’t know how it is, Deborah, to find the person who is the other half of you. It’s miraculous. It’s like being bom again. You’re not only a complete being at last, you're twice the being you ever were before. Everything depends on that other person, with whom you fit like fingers in a glove. Take one away and you haven’t got even what you had before. All you've dot is ... is a void. But .. . mat's a woman’s argument." ’ "I am a woman,” said Deborah, moved almost to tears. "Darling, there’s more to be- * coming a woman than being bom a girt When someone means more to you than you do yourself, then you'll be a woman. Well ... it's up to you. Can you do it? Can you walk into the police station and tell them what vou've found out about Bill ? And what you suspect?" After a moment ot doubt and hesitation, Deborah shook her head. "No, I don't think I cftn,” she said. "Funny, I used to think it would be amusing to play detective. It isn't a game when a man’s life is at stake. I must tell Andrew, though. Then it will be up to him.” “You said something this morning that stung,” said Joyce. "In a* way, it was appallingly true. You said. It was all right for it to be Andrew’. No . . . don’t interrupt I want to explain, if I can. You see, we all thought it was Andrew. We were sorry for him, but it was something he’d got himself into. Even if we wanted to, we couldn’t get him out Oh, I know we turned our backs on him—but isn’t that only human when someone threatens us all by breaking the basic law, •Thou shalt not kill’?” "I didn’t mean to hurt you.” said Deborah, "but it seemed to me that you were bound and determined it must be Andrew, that there must be no possibility whatever that it could be someone 4«e>" —— Deborah sensed she saw a glimmer of uneasiness pass through Joyce’s eyes.
