PROGRESSIVES RALLY IN WEST IERRE HAUTE
Big Meeting is Addressed by Otis Ghilley, Candidate for Congress, and It. B. Stimson.
Progressives of Sugar Creek, to the number of several hundred, met Tuesday night in West Terre Haute and heard addresses by the county and township candidates on the ticket. Otis E. Gulley, candidate for congress from the Fifth district R. B. Stimson, progressive candidate for prosecutor, and William F. Spears, candidate for trustee of Sugar Creek township were the principal speakers. Oscar Rankin, candidate for representative W. E. May, candidate for county recorder Sim Waggoner, candidate for treasurer Henry Stuclcwish, candidate for county commissioner Charles L. Wood, candidate for county assessor, were among the members of the county ticket In attendance. Vice County Chairman Frank Buckingham presided.
A parade of autos preceded the meeting and was taken part In by a number of West Terre Haute women. Mrs. John Newland and Mrs. W. W. Brown headed the parade on horseback.
Mr. Gulley endorsed every member of the county progressive ticket. "I have been up and down the state," he said, "and I have not found a better set of candidates on arc ticket."
R. B. Stimson spoke of the increased chances of the progressive ticket to win. "Two years ago," he said, "without organization we polled 5,000 votes. Now that we are two years old and have a strong working organization, how many votes may we expect next November? I believe the people are convinced that the progressive party offers the only relief from existing conditions and I believe the vote this fall will prove this assertion."

LOVE CASCARETS FOR TIE BOWELS
Give "Candy Cathartic" for a bad cold, sour stomach, constipation.
Get a 10-cent box now. Most of the ills of childhood are caused by a sour, disordered stomach, sluggish liver and constipated bowels. They catch cold easily, become cross, listless, irritable, feverish, restless, tongue coated, don't eat or sleep well and need a gentle cleansing of the bowels—but don't try to force a nauseating dose of oil into the little one's already sick stomach—it is cruel, needless and old-fashioned.
Any child will gladly take Cascarets Candy Cathartic, which act gently— never gripe or produce the slightest uneasiness—thoroughly cleanse the little one's system, sweeten the stomach and put the liver and bowel in a pure, healthy condition.
Full directions for children and grown-ups in each package. Mothers can rest easy after giving this gentle, thorough laxative which costs only 10 cents a box at any drug store.
CONEERENCE CHANGES E E
Pats Burden of Raising $100,000,000 Annually on Beer—Eliminates Auto Levy.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 7.—The caucus of the democrats of the senate on the emergency war revenue bill as drafted by the finance committee was resumed today. The conference had failed to complete its labors after sessions which began early yesterday and continued until nearly midnight. When a recess was taken until today several important features of the war tax measure awaited the action of the caucus. It was hoped to complete the work of revising the bill by the time the senate met today in order to permit the attendance of the members of the conference upon its sessions.
By the action of the caucus the burden of the $100,000,000 war revenue bill is imposed upon liquors. The proposed extra tax on beer was increased from fifty cents to 75 cents a barrel, making the total levy $1.75 a barrrel, with a drawback of five percent for purchase of revenue stamps in advance. A special revenue tax on rectifiers of distilled spirits of five cents a gallon also was levied. The taxes on liquor, it is estimated, would raise more than $50,000,000 in revenue annually.
The caucus also eliminated the proposed tax of fifty cents a horsepower on automobile sales, estimated to raise $10,000,000, the proposed levy of one cent a gallon on gasoline, estimated to bring in $10,000,000 and cut in half the proposed tax of $2 a thousand dollars on banking capital and surplus, thus reducing the estimated revenue from this source from $3,400,000 to $1,700,000.
WAR INSURANCE HEAVY.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 7.—The bureau of war risk insurance today announced that it has written insurance to date aggregating $4,434,541, and has pending policies calling for $5,197,600. Applications were received yesterday for $1,034,000 insurance of which about three-fourths was on cargo.
FRENCH DROP FLYER.
PARIS, Oct. 7.-3:35 a. m.—A dispatch from Troyes, France, to the Havas Agency states that announcement comes from Romily-Sur-Seine, a town twenty-three miles northwest of Troyes, that the French brought down a German aeroplane while it was flying over that city yesterday.
