TOWN OF MECCA HEARS GULLEY HIT AT G. 0. P.

Progressive Congressional Candidate Laughs At Cry of Republicans to "Come Back."

By Special Correspondent. MECCA, Ind., Aug. 5—The Odd Fellows' hall here was packed

At l^Iecca, Mr. Gulley discussed freely the various planks in both the national and state progressive platforms and made a hit when he scored the standpatters who are asking for the progressives to "come back." "The republican party," he 88IS, 'is asking the progressives to 'comc back* but the progressive shakes his head and the democrat looks or and laughs. •That may be all right but I would od--jfcvise my democratic friend 10 beware. *The democratic party ha? been trying for fifty years to defeat tV:e r?pubilcans itiA it took the progressives but tlfree* months. "They call in the name if Lincoln '.to 'come liack.' That is absurd. The

Very fact that Lincoln had courage enough to £tand on principle and folIqw his convictions and refused to .ijfheed the 'come back' call is the very

thing which made Lincoln's name stand where it does and where it did at that time. Dothey think that we 1 W-U1- strike our flag, desert the people "and their cause and join a funeral procession to bury a dead elephant?"

Mr. Gulley wasl given a round of applause when he concluded his talk and it is an -assured fact that the 115 members of the progressive party of Mecca will Vive their support to the progressive candidate.

WALL STREET ASSUMES AWAITING ATTITUDE

Settles Down to Watch Hostilities in Europe—Banks Consider Relief Situation,

NEW YORK, Aug. 6.—With the spread of hostilities abroad, Wall street has settled down to a waiting attitude, convinced that the resumption of normal conditions lies in the indefinite future. It is virtually certain that no attempt to re-open *he stock exchange will be made while the London exchange remains closed.

The stress of the financial situation led the directors of the American Tobacco company today to declare their quarterly dividend of 5 per cent payable in script instead of cash. The script is due one year from September and bears Interest at 6 per cent, payable semi-annually. The directors announced that they would need ready cash for marketing crops.

American securities, valued at |16,000,000 to $25,000,000, most of which were sold for foreign account in this market last week, were brought In by the steamship Olympic today. Much of this stock was borrowed here pending delivery and in order to round out such transactions the stock received today must be accepted and the borrowed certificates returned. Lenders of these stocks may find it a difficult matter to effect the exchange unless the banks offer assistance.

A bank conference was held today at which further arrangements were made for the shipment of gold to aid American tourists abroad. It is probable that the amount may exceed $8,OOOjOOO as outside bankers have asked to participate in behalf of their clients abroad.

More applications for emergency currency were received at the subtreasury. Another large amount of currency is expected from Washington tomorrow, bringing the total up to about $75,000,000.

At the clearing house, business was proceeding as usual, though in smaller volume. A large part but not all ot the balance was pairl in certificates, and it was said that sales of more stocks and bonds on private terms were consumed at prices above last Thursday's close. The small inquiry was for the more active Issues, Including Harriman, Great Northern preferred, St. Paul and U. S. Steel.

Nowa Well and Happy Woman

"I took La Grippe—had terrible pain in my side, and the doctor said one lung: was affected." writes Mre. S. Taylor, of Arnold, Kansas. Route 1. "I commenced using 'Medical Discovery.' Was in bed five weeks. Had cold sweats and was like one who was dying. I did not think I would ever get strong again. I used 'Golden Medical Discovery' for about five months, and now I am strong and have no cough of any kind. We used Dr. Pierce'B medicines in the family for a number of years, but this winter I tried them myself and they are all that I they are claimed to be.)

I often thought of doing so myself because I was so we*k and discouraged but thanks to Dr. Pierce's family medicines I am a wall and happy woman."

The laws of the state of Indiana make it the duty of the school board to provide safe and sanitary school buildings for the accommodation of all children In the city between the ages of six and fourteen years. Pursuant to the state law and In the performance of our sworn duties we voted to build on the only available site the only kind of a school building that would relieve the unsafe and unsanitary conditions which exist in the schoolo north of the Vandalla railroad. "The state law provides for" the sale of bonds for school purposes and fixes the limit of bonded indebtedness. The proposed $200,000 bond Issue for building purposes when consummated will still leave the school city more than $220,000 within the limit of the indebtedness provided by the state law. The state provides for tax levies for school purposes and fixes the limit for such tax levy. The tax levy, as already fixed and certified to the auditor by unanimous vote of the school board, is 38 cents less than the amount allowed by the state law."
