fraining, and It looked late Wednesday that Greiner -would land a winner, v The same was true of the race for Auditor. Charles S. Lee, republican, tnade grains during: the morning, but the later hours of the day did not indicate that he would pvercome the lead of Tom Ferguson, his democratic opponent.
George Sehaal led the democratic ticket in'nearly every part of the ./county."
Wednesday afternoon the incom-f-te rcturtia Rave Perry Toug1as, democrat, a lead of five hundred votes over William Horsley, republican, for prosecutor, and as the township returns came in Douglas' lead kept growing. His race was one of the surprises of the election. Douglas himself, Jwas in bed with influenza during the closing hours of the campaign and his friends kept up the struggle.
The democratic candidates few the legislature all received large majorities and the entire delegation jsvill be democratic. "Wet* and "Dry" Echo.
The election of the democratic legislative ticket would indicate that the s fight of the "dry" element on these candidates did not hurt them. The democratic candidates did not trouble i to answer the questionnaires the anti•aloon organizations sent out, and -they were marked for defeat by the •inti-saloon state organization, which generally chose ,republican candidates over the state to give its support to.
There 'was but little difference In the vote, and the interest of the public In the election was shown by the unanimity with which the voters Indicated their choice on the ballot. As a rule, this vote falls far below the feounty ticket vote.
The election was marked by but little trouble. County Chairman George MoorheaiJ, of the democratic ^committee, said Wednesday that there -fwere tew imports of trouble and the «iay was generally orderly. He said he believed it was the cleanest election •ever held here, and add a word of ^congratulation to the democratic county organization.

Go* that "Buster" Clark and ^ils element were out fighting Cox. V For reasons long evident, the voters ^concluded that the "Buster" Clark influence in the courts must go, and, according to Judge Cox, reflects the impression his vigorous fight on such elements made. t-O'* Perry Douglas pledged himself to punish the bootleggers of Terre Haute 'Who under the present administration have brought disgrace on the city.
Hundreds of such cases have piled up In the courts here, seemingly with the 1 approval of. the authorities, or some of .^i'Sthem, and the vote given Douglas, who was home ill most of the cami palgn, would seem to show that most of tha,..voters want clean conditions here.

SANDERS WINS FOR
Continued From Page One.
President Wilson for a higher price for wheat It was argued during the campaign that the farmers would not take this view of the situation, but that they would rather prefer to take a smaller price for their wheat and appear patriotic.
The latter argument seems to have been in error. The farmers doubtless would rather have the larger price for tho wheat and show .their patriotism in some other form. They were willing that wheat should get them the highest price the government or the demand could put it.
The mine car matter, which was claimed by both candidates, did not seem to effect the vote, the miner vote beong divided between the parties about as usual.
Moss got his largest vote among the laboring people and railroad men of Terre Haute.
If Moss had beeft victorious he would have been considered as a gubernatorial possibility. This fact has long been discussed in political circles. What effect the present set-back will have catfaut be determined at this: time-

LOT MORE LIFE BOATS. But Pro
Fewer Oil Heater* Being duced By This Plant. DETROIT, Mich., Nov. 6—A com' paratively small but increasing example of how Detroit industries have responded to the war needs- of the United States and it£ allies is afforded in the story of a stove plant diverted from the manufacture of oil heaters to the production of lifeboats.
The boats, of steel and wood construction, are 24 feet long ffrid have a capacity of, ^8-persons. They are being turned *put forithe new merchant fle?,( at the rateeight every day. The craft are ready for immediate service when they leave the one-time stove plant. Even emergency rations have been put in.
The production methods are much like those ~of the big automobile
fac
tories. Construction begins at one end of an Immense system of tracking. As each stage of the work is completed, the boat Is moved along to another group of workmen for the next part of its equipment. Before it reaches the end of the Journey through the plant, 18,000 rivets have been driven paint has been applied, and lift line*, floats, sails and oars installed.
A crane picks the completed boat from the track, deposits it on a flat car outside and the vessel ia ready for its trip to the seaboard.
EXPLOSIVE LEAD PENCILS.
German Soldiers Use Them To Kill v Little Children. TURIN,' Italy, Nov. 6.^-The news that a boy had been hurt in Tarant6 by the explosion of a lead pencil thrown into Brindisi by Austrian aviators has found confirmation here.
One of our soldiers coming from Bassano on leave brought a similar implement, but it looked like a fountain pen, instead of a pencil. It passed into the possession of several children belonging to a family of refugees living near Alba and in the service of the count. These children, Sena by name, were toying innocently with the terrible object.
It chanced that their mother had learned of the lead pencil episode in Taranto from reading the Gazzetta del Popolo, and snatched the fountain pen from the children. i
With proper precautions the pen was Struck with a hammer. It exploded with a loud detonation and was broken into fragments, which were gathered up and taken to Turin by Cavalier Rebecca, inspector of labor in the high commissariat for war refugees. He had it examined by experts who were employed in the office of military supplies.
Documents proving the barbarity of our enemies will be placed in the Museum of the National Risorglmento (Resurrection) with the frasnoeiita that were left of. the pen.

STEAL FOOD COUPONS.
Most restaurant managements nave a rule that the waiter cannot remove a. meat coupon—it must be done by the cashier—and the coupons will not be accepted if clipped by the customer. Very- few cashiers take too many coupons hut they disappear during the trip of the waiters from the customer to the cashier.
The stolen coupons are used to extract good tips from strangers who have not been in town long enough to get a coupon book. Meat is ordered by the stranger, the coupons demanded, the lack of coupons explained and then comes a hint that it may be arranged without the coupon. If the tip is satisfactory, the meat is produced. The stranger and the waiter profit by the theft from the permanent resident.

There Is no need of suffering from the depredations of rats and mice now that Stearns' Electric Paste is readily obtainable at nearly every drug store. A small box of this effective exterminator costs but a few cents and !s usually sufficient to completely rid the house, store or barn, of rats and mice. The U. 8. government has bouyrht thousands of packages of Stearns' Electric Paste to exterminate rats and mice. The Paste i3 also efficient in destroying cockroaches and waterbuss.—Adv.

Part of "BULL" DURHAM Tobacco Released to Gvilians at Home to "Roll Their Own"
—With the little muslin sack of "BULL** DURHAM in tho pockets of every one of our fighting men on, land an4 sea— —-With good old "Bull" in the regular Army rations— —And with the future demands of the War Department abundantly cared for, part of "BULL" DURHAM Tobacco is offered again to the men at home who "roll their own".
And to these men I want to say, that in gjving up so freely all your "Bull", when your Country asked for it for its fighting men, you did a human "bit". However small that little muslin sack may seem, you may have the satisfaction of knowing that your sack of "Bull" was meat and drink to some boy waiting or fighting at tho front, arid that your supply of "Bull" helped to make the distribution to our forces full and complete, and make it quickly. Now that Washington assures us that such distribution is a fact, you will, I %now, welcome the "Makings" home again. .-V
And with greater satisfaction and more pleasure than ever, you will, I know, with your own hands, roll a cigarette again for yourself—a cigarette machines can't imitate the mildest, the most fragrantt the most economical cigarette in the world.
Am I wrong in thinking that you will be as proud as I am of your little muslin sack of "Bull"
TOTLK FROM TREES.
b^veral species of trees found in various parts of the world yield a very acceptable substitute for milk. One of these grows in British Guiana and parts of the West Indies. The natives call it the "Hya-hya." Its juice is slightly thicker and richer than cow s milk and is used by the natives for all purposes that we use milk. The tree grows to a height of forty feet. The Cingalese have a tree called the "Kiriaghuma," which yields a milklike juice. In Para a tree called the
