Says the Crawfordsvillc Joimml: Thomas Hanna, ex lieutenant governor of Indiana, is a candidate for attorney general. Governor Hanna's record is well known to the people of Indiana. Presiding over a democratic senate which was determined to override till law, he displayed the courage of a true man and held in cheek the refract-

him and hate to see the legislative aspirations of such a promising young democrat so ruthlessly east down. He is wiser, however, and

the ring, gets whatever he wants at any time. The political passing of Mr. Vermillion j s pathetic.

J. K. Burgess, of Greencastle township, is a candidate for recorder, subject to the decision of the demoeratic primary. He is a veteran soldier and unable to perform physical labor. The above announcement appeared in both the demoeratic papers before the late primary elec tion. The result of Saturday’s count shows that Mr. Burgess received but fifty-four votes, the smallest number east for any man on the ticket. His record as a soldier is in shining contrast to that of the recorder nominee. The above figures show the love of democracy for the soldier in Putnam county.

The provisions of the income tax are not worrying the average country editor. Let 'er income! Some of the Washington congressmen will want protection from the republican voters at home some of these bright days.

The republicans will name a ticket later which will put the one made Friday to sleep, quicker than L'orbett did Mitchell. This is the year to redeem old Putnam. Twenty-kive hundred votes is Lqot the full strength of the demo

ory and tintuly majority. He is

It bears everv element of defeat, and the republicans couldn't have been better satisfied had they hail the making of it.

It was a rebuke to Putnam's missioners. The republicans will rebuke the whole outfit next November.
