Entered at the poetoffice in Decatur, Indiana, aa aceond class rjall. Rev M H. Appleby, pastor of the Methodist church of Lebanon, says; "Mr Ralston is too big a man to play peanut politics. We have had peanut politics in Indiana because we bate had peanut politicians, but Mr. Ralston is too broad a man to stoop to such petty methods. He is too big a man to be spoiled by the seductions and rewards o« office If he is elected governor be w ill still be Sam Ralston to all the friends and neighbors o' former years. Only small men are turned by the fiattenes and voices of victo’y from the friends who shared their defeats and enjoyed their confidence in the day of obscurity. Mr. Ralston if elevated to high office will be Sara Ralston to all the old friends, and his triumph will not be complete if they are not with him to share it. The latch string of the gubernatorial mansion will always be out to the people of Boone county if he occupies It “Mr. Ralston's home life is ideai and if he becomes governor that wholesome home atmosphere will e transferred to a conspicuous pia e where it will have a wide influence for good What this will mean to the people of Indiana in these days of lax views and looser practices is in calculable. As Mr. Ralston's friends and neighbors, we know how much he is indebted for his success to the capable and accomplished wife, who presides over and creates the atmosphere of his home Our pride in his advancement will be increased by our knowledge that Mrs. Ralston will not fail to measure up to the full demands of high station; and that in the.fierce light that beats upon the throne she will exemplify tbA virtues that have made the American home the queenly mother of greatness and happiness A life-long Jay county republican, who is going to support Wilson this year, gives the best reasons in the world for so doing. He said four j rars

1 ago the republican national platform . pledged a revision of the tariff and Taft, then a candidate, said in his speeches that that pledge meant a downward revision Taft was elected, has served one term, and instead of iiieeping his pledge, tras been a reactionary president, signed the Payne- ! Aldrich tariff law, and has failed to i keep faith with the people by vetoing every bill passed by congress reris--1 ing the tariff downward Roosevelt is 1 now for reform. He served seven i years as president and during these 1 seven years most of the evils of . which he now complains, became realities During these seven years , as chief executive Roosevelt never raised his hand in the interest of reform. —Portland Sun. A vote for Richard K Erwin for judge of the supreme court of Indiana His a vote for a man, whom you know, a product ot our own county, and I serves to place there a man in whose honor and integrity we all have the ■ greatest confidence. It likewise serves to place Adams county in a • bene/ position, putfc us on the map. Las it were, and all these things b" ! p ’ in various ways. He should have the ■ unanimous support of the voters ot i Adams county. We know he would i appreciate it and we know that a vote i from the opposition in his old Union i township, where he was bom and raised would mean more than ajl tie > votes in an entire county somewhere else. He has earned the right to the • honor he asks, and we should be proud of him and show it on election — The calamity yelpers are working > overtime. They are doing their bert • to frighten the voters by assuring - them that a panic will come upon the t country if Wilson is elected Nothing can be done but to let them yelp. i Wilson is going to be elected, and so .far as the future is concerned the ■ business men and manufacturers of > the country do not seem to be at all - alarmed. They are moving along s with less concern than ever before r on the eve of a presidential election, t doe to the no doubt that they feel s that Wilson's election will be a good ? thing for the country. But these yeipj ers will continue to growl and how! » panic after the election until a lot r of them land in the bug houses ot the country.—Columbia City Post , • The democratic state campaign will s close next week with a brilliant fin ? ish. when a number ot the greatest s speakers of the day will be rushed

over the state in special traiMt speaking in practically every county seat \nte program will be announced in a day or two. The victory is won. unless the democrats become over-con fident and throw away the opportunity. Every voter Who believe* in the principles for which the democratic party has so long contended, and who really wants these great and 1 grave questions settled for all time to come, should make a precinct worker out of himself and aid in getting tho vote out. Dr. Henry Moore, the Indianapolis man, who is devoting his life to the study and prevention of tuberculosis, is here today, organizing Adams county for the sale of Red Cress stamps. In this busy whirl, when we meet a man, big enough to devote his time to a work that will aid others and prevent suffering and death, we take our hat off and say, "flod bless you.” In this class stands Dr Moore, a noble example of self-sacrifice and earnest endeavor. He is to be honored akd respected Adams county has full right to feel proud of her representation in the affairs of the state. With Lew- Ellinsham as secretary of state. H. L. Center as his asc'stant, J. Fred Franc? as clerk o' tne supreme court. Dr. 1. S Hoyers . member of the state board of health, and after the November election R. K. Erwin as a judge of the supreme court, the fact should ue recognized that we are getting “thar." The work of fifty years past for the democratic party is being recognized The n et’ng of Congressman Adair in this city Thursday evening will be one of the important ones of the campaign If anybody desires to aak/bim a question they win certainly be Si' en that opportunity, and we are sure > that the answer will be honest and ‘ fair and open. This splendid repre sentative of the rights of people stands where he always stood, for those things that will give the great ‘ est good to the greatest number of people ... .. CALENDAR.
