ROSELAWN DRUGGIST FINED AT KENTLAND

Ten Dollars and Costs on One Charge HThlle Others Are Said to Have Been Dismissed. J: W. Crooks, the Roselawn druggist, was fined $lO and costs at Kent•land Monday on a charge of illegal sale of liquor. It is understood that the other indictments against him were dismissed. Some time ago the temperance people of Roselawn procured the services of a detective and he furnished the evidence that resulted in the indictments. The detective is in the employ of the Anti-Saloon League and was accompanied to Roselawn by his wife. Both were to have been witnesses for the state but the woman was recently burned to death. She was cleaning a pair of gloves with gasoline at her home in Indianapolis when the gasoline ignited and she was so badly burned that death resulted. Her death is said to have weakened the case of the state. That there is widespread violation of the druggist liquor law in small places is generally considered. The act tolerates the sale should be repealed and would have been at the last legislature if the majority of the members had not been pledged to the liquorcratic bosses of the democratic party. A $lO fine is a small penalty for the indiscriminate sale of whisky covering two or three years. On the way back to Roselawn aftei the trial the automobile containing Mrs. Crooks and son, Mrs. D. K. Frye and John Parker; was overturned and all of the occupants more or less injured, while the little Crooks boy, 7 years of age, suffered a fractured leg, the flesh being frightfully lacerated and the bone *so badly crushed that he was taken to a Chicago hospital for treatment. Mrs. Frye was cut about the face and hands and was unconscious for several hours and Mr. Parker also suffered severe bruises and cuts.

BEVERIDGE ON CRUMPACKER.

We have two houses of congress. You have got a man down there that has served a very long time, with an industry, .with an ability, with a singlemindedness, that not ordinarily is seen in public life. And they are actually asking, at a very time when this war is being waged against the invisible government, to send in place of that man a candidate, calling him* self a democrat, who is the attorney for every great and mighty interest in this district that we are fighting in Washington. I say nothing whatever against the democratic candidate personally. He may be a man. I have no doubt he is able and all that sort of thing . But is it a fair thing, that when a man’s service has been devoted, when his living has come, and his wealth, from serving s the very people that make up the invisible government—l ask you if that is the man to put on the firing line in a desperate battle against the invisible government? Won’t his mind naturally be prejudiced to look with disfavor upon those things for which we today are fighting? On the other hand, there is that splendid man whom I have known for twelve years, who stands with me for a tariff commission, who stands wijtti me for remedying the evil of over-capitalization, who was against ail the wrongs of the tariff bill but who looked at it as an economical question, whereas I looked at it as a moral question—this practiced soldier, Edgar D. Crumpacker your congressman. Send him hack, for believe me, men and women, the battle already waged has only been a skirmish compared with that which we have to carry forward.— ‘Albert J. Beveridge, progressive candidate for 'governor, in an address at the Dryfus theatre, Lafayette, Ind., on November 4, 1910.

Meat Shops to Close on Sunday.

Hereafter the meat shops will be closed on Sunday until warm weather. ROTH BROS. • J. J. EIGELSBACH. Prosperity is at hand; you are enjoying the best conditions that ever prevailed in the United States. Do you think it would be wise to take a leap into the dark?

It is time to order your Thanksgiving fruit cake. We would like to make H for you. Phone 477. Honest, straightforward, manly in every act, President Taft has been a statesman and not a politician. He is good enough to deserve your vote, no matter how you have voted before. Be as fair with him as you would want others to be fair with you, and by supporting him plan for maintaining good times and happy homes. Mr. and Mrs. Will P. Knox-came down from Chicago this afternoon for a visit until Monday with his father, T. A. Knox, and his sisters, Mrs. Frank Hoover and Mrs. Huntington. This is a part of their honeymoon trip.

RENSSELAER CLERKS GET SALARY INCREASE

Charles Crow and Frank Leek Each Receive Meritorious Promotion Dating October Ist. Yk At least two of Rensselaer’s quota of railway mail clerks have received increases in salary under the meritorious service law now in operation It is quite probable that others have also, but The Republican could nod get into communication with any or them today. The two known to have received the increase are Charles Grow and Frank Leek. The former was raised from $1,500 to $1,600 and the latter from $1,300 to $1,400. Neither knew that they were to receive the increase until they went to the superintendent’s office in Cincinnati to sign the payroll for October. The pay dates from October Ist. Both are experts in mail handling and the merit of the increase will be recognized by their friends here. An order was promulgated the past week that will as nearly as possible give all mail clerks an opportunity to vote on election day. 'Regular clerks will be relieved from parts •of their runs in order to let them get home to vote. . i i

Engagement / Announced of Former President’s Widow to Thomas Joseph Preston. Princeton, N. J., Oct. 29. —Mrs. Grover Cleveland authorizes the announcement of her engagement to Thomas Joseph Preston, professor of archaeology and history of arts at Wells College. The date of the marriage is not yet determined, but will be ( announced later. Mr. Preston is 50 years old, and is a graduate of Princeton University. Mrs. Cleveland is a graduate of Wells College and has been a trustee of that institution since 1887. Her wedding to President Grover Cleveland, which took Tilace In the executive mansion during his first administration, was one of the notable events in the history of the White House. Her father, Oscar Folsom, was a law partner of Mr. Cleveland, who, upon Mr. Folsom’s death in 1875, became Frances Folsom’s guardian. After his retirement from the presidency, Mr. Cleveland made his permanent home in Princeton, and Mrs. Cleveland has continued to reside here since the Jprmer president died in 1908. Her two daughters, Esther and Marion, and her son, Richard F„ are living with her here.

WHO WAS KILLED? REPORTER PUZZLED

Rumor Came From Two Sources But Coroner, Undertaker Nor Doctors Knew Anything of It. At about 2:15 o’clock today tw<f men called at The Republican office, and said they heard that 4 man had been killed by a railroad train. They said that it was -reported he had had trouble with another man’s wife and was hurled in front of a train. They were unable to give any particulars. The writed at once called the coroner, the undertaker, the railway agent and some of the doctors, also the Pleasant Ridge and McCoysburg storekeepers, but could learn nothing. At about 2:30 o’clock a woman called The Republican office. She was crying so much that we heard her with difficulty. She said that she had been told that ~h e” had been all cut to pieces. We could not learn who she waß talking about or who was talking. Although asked several times who it was, the woman cried so lustily that her answer was hot discernable. \ The central operator who had taken care of the call, was sure it was from the 516 line. Further inquiry revealed nothing and the reporter was sdrely perplexed because of his inability to run down the story. The democratic party favors a tariff for revenue only. A panic will follow the passage of such a law. The Progressive party favors the encouragement of trusts and combinations under government control, which means the certain death of the small competitor and the eventual adoption of socialism. The Republican party believes in a protective tariff based upon the American wage scale; it believes in the dissolution of trusts and the re-establishment of wholesome competition under governmental regulation ; it believes in progressive measures that are not dangerous and destructive. It believes in continuing the prosperity we are now enjoying. Be careful what you do with your ballot nut Tuesday.

CARELESS MOTHER LEFT BABY ALONE

Went to Top of Indianapolis Mona* meat and Baby Climbed Up to Window had Fell 110 Feet. About the most careless act of a mother that has come to our attention recently was that of Mrs. Hampton Polsgrove, of Indianapolis. Tuesday she visited the soldiers’ and sailors’ monument and while she went to the top in the elevator she left her 3-year-ld son playing in the room on the main floor. She remained for some time at the top and the baby started up the steps to find its mother. It had Climbed up about 110 feet and then walked out of the open window on one of the landings. It fell to the cement steps below and was almost instantly killed. The mother was entertaining some friends from Louisville and Frankfort, Ky., and says that she left the baby in the care of an old soldier in the monument. The coroner is making a thorough investigation.

HAS A NAMESAKE IN THE ROYAL SLAVE CO.

Dr. Hubbell, of Francesville, to Lead Ant© Party Here and to Banquet the Actors. — •, The Royal Slave Co. is the attraction at the opera house tonight. One of the actors is Walter Hubbell. There are Hubbells and Hubbells at Francesville and Dr. Hubbell of that place has been tracing the family geneology and the Hubbells look good to him. He thinks the actor Hubbell is related to him and is coming over to find out, to see the show and to give a banquet to the actors in honor of his relative, who has the leading role, Che part of “EL AGUILA,” the Eagle, an Indian descendent of the Montezumas or the ancient Kings of Mexico. Just how many friends Dr. Hubbell will bring with him is not known and it is not certain how elaborate a spread he will stand sponsor for, but the actors, who are, by the way, a fine looking lot, are’ willing for him to go as far as he likes. The Royal Slave is a 5-act play and great claims are made for it.

Surprised by Friends On Last Saturday Evening.

Mr. and Mrs. C. M. Greenlee, of Parr, who are moving to Rensselaer, were surprised by about fifty of their neighbors and friends last Saturday evening. It was about 7 o’clock when unexpected guests arrived and they proceeded to make themselves at home and were aided by the host and hostess after their surprise had subsided. The guests brought well filled baskets and a fine supper was enjoyed. It was a farewell gathering and Mr. and Mrs. Greenlee were impressed with the many expressions of regret that they are leaving Parr, and they find it a mattes of much regret to themselves. President Taft is despised by the trusts he has prosecuted; he is feared by the illegal combinations of capital against whom his agents have been collecting evidence; he*is consistent and impartial in his determined attack on the violators of the law. He is the kind of a man who should -be at the head of the nation as your representative and mine: During it all he has preserved prosperity by his corageous refusal to be led into endorsing measures that aimed at our national welfare. Vote to keep him at the work he has so ably performed during the past three and a half years.

Col.'Durbin’s Proposition , . § In 1902, as Governor, I made the proposition to the tax payers of the State if they would continue the Republican Finance Board and give me a Republican Legislature to hold down appropriations, I would pay off all the State debt that could be paid or leave money in the treasury or on the tax duplicate to pay the remainder. I did it. I now make the proposition that if elected Governor, I will pay off every dollar of the State debt and not raise the taxes one penny in so doing. I paid $2,808,000 on the debt during my administration, largely through the application of business methods. A vote for me is a vote to pay off the debt and thereby reduce the taxes. Take your choice, Mr. Taxpayer. WINFIELD T. DURBIN.

PROGRESSIVES BUY ADVERTISING

Republican Sells Space to Be Used f in Late Effort to Help Third Party Ticket The progressives have the money this year and they are spending it very liberally. Of course, we don’t know where the get it, not for sure, but it is quite probable that George Wf Perkins and J. Pierpont Morgan and Bill Flynn and that gang of .Roosevelt and Beveridge puritans are putting up the big end of it. It is safe to say that not for many years has as much money been spent by a party in Jasper county as the progressives are putting into this campaign. The Republican today received an order through Lord & Thomas, reputable advertising agents of Chicago, for a good sized chunk of advertising in The Evening Republican of today and Friday. It proclaims In big type that “Taft is out of it” and then devotes itself to arguing against Wilson. Republicans should refuse to be influenced by the people who tell them that Taft is out of it. There are entirely too many steady, honest, rightseeing men to permit .an advertisement paid for by money given by the trusts to influence them. Taft is still in it, good and strong, and will be in it to the finish, and if he goes down in defeat, it will be with the support of thousands of loyal republicans, who are proud of their party .and their leader. Be firm, stand by Taft and prosperity, and progress, and help to return him to the presidency.
