Novelty Chatelaines —New

"NECESSITY is the mother of invention," which is probably the reason we have these convenient chatelaine novelties. Powder, paint, pencil and pad and the other things a woman likes always to hand and are so hard to get at inside the pocketbook, can be attached to the handle of the bag and are always ready to use. These chatelaines are not only convenient—they are ornamental add a distinctive touch to the costume. We have them, dozens of styles, of silver, of gunmetal, bright and Pompeiian gold.

A great many of the Civil war veterans are looking to Congress to pass a more liberal pension law. Both Democrats and Republicans say that they favor a more liberal pension. In this time of great extravagance when the government is voting away millions of money in other matters, it seems to us that the old soldier should be remembered. This much is certain. If he is ever to be more liberally pensioned than he is now, it will have to be done soon. We see no cause to delay the matter. Both parties say they favor it. The people generally do not oppose it. Why not do it now. Let it be one dollar a day, and cut out all the pension department jobs, and expense, and the saving from pension officers will go along way in paying the increase in the pensions. The fact that a lot of pension officials who are holding good paying jobs under the pension department would be thrown out of employment should not prevent Congress

from doing its duty to the old soldier. The debt is due the soldiers and not the pension employes. Let the army of pension employes out and give their salaries to the soldiers.

It is the purpose of the Republican candidates for county offices to make a clean, careful campaign among the voters of the county. They do not intend to resort to misrepresentation and mud-slinging. They will seek the support of the voters as friends and neighbors and not as bitter political enemies. They appreciate that the old days of political hate are fast passing away and that people are much more liberal in politics than they formerly were that they are not

Republican cities are going Democratic and Democratic cities are electing Republican officers that when a Congressional district with 10,000 Republican majority elects a Democratic Congressman by 5,000 majority, even Hancock county may break away from party lines in order to show certain political leaders that they do not own the Democratic voters.

New life has been injected^into the sugar trust fraud cases by the full confession of Oliver Spitzer, who was railroaded into prison as a scapegoat. The people are amazed at the shameful frauds which have been perpetrated against the government by the big corporation, and they are, as a result, so prejudiced on account of the developments that they are eager for a whole crop of wealthy bribers and perjurers to be sent to prison. Why men in official position and prosperbusiness are not satisfied with salaries and enormous profits is beyond comprehension. Business companies which make millions, it seems should be content, but they evidently are not, and seek to defraud in order that they may increase their wealth. Nothing short of prison, it seems will stop graft and stealing. The people want them sent to prison. The punishment should not only be sure, but severe.

The tickets of the two old pblitical parties in Hancock county have now been named, and if the voters of the county do not get the best material offered it is their own fault. The Republicans have nominated a good ticket. They are men who stand well in the diffierent communities in which they live. It is no secret that the Democrats have a good strong majority of voters in the county, and the only way that the Republicans can hope to be elected is by Democratic votes. There are many. Democrats who are not satisfied with the management of Hancock county. They are no less Democrats because they are opposed to certain influences in the county which do not care for the interests of the taxpayers.

NO HOPE

The best evidence that the Democrats of the Sixth district do not have any hopes of beating Judge William O. Barnard for Congress is shown in the nomination of Mayor Finley H. Gray of Connersville.

When men like Lon Mull, Walter S. Chambers and Rev. Dr. T. H. Kuhn, suscessful business men, prominent newspaper man and platform orator are passed-up for a candidate like Mayor Gray "there is nothing to it." The enthusiam which marked the opening of the Convention evapoorated in an atmosphere that could not sustain it throughout the days convention.

Economy and honesty are the two cardinal demands of the voters and taxpayers of the country today. It applies to all parties and all localities. Too much money is sp^nt in the administration of public affairs.

Now is a good time bo cut weeds. Weeds cut now may sprout again, but they will never grow so large if they are cut now. The task becomes much more difficult when weeds are not cut until August.

If the Democrats had asked Judge Barnard and the Republicans, who to nominate for Congress in this district they would. have said: Finley H. Gray.

HOG RECEIPTS, 11,000 MARKET DECLINES 25C

Record Ran Since Middle of January

—Top $9.60.

Indianapolis, Ind.. May 25. Receipts—11,000 hogs 2,000 cattle and 400 sheep, against 4,749 hogs, 1,203 cattle and 381 sheep a week ago, and 8,681 hogs, 1,577 cattle and 208 sheep a year ago.

Receipts of hogs Jwere the largest since about the middle of January and were about as large as orninarily expected at the busiest time in the year. There were far more than the average

few outside orders, but packers were free buyers at prices generally 25c lower. Some sales, however, were not over 20c lower. Over 3,000 remained unsold. There were scattering sales at §9.55 to §9.70, but practically all of the supply sold at $9.50.

As usual at this time in the year^ there was an irregular cattle market, buyers showing an inclination to pay nearly steady prices for the strictly dry-fed, well matured cattle of all kinds, which were scarce. Buying in other lines was uneven and lower with a shrinkage of at least 25c in prices of undesirable cattle since Friday. Bulls were about 25c lower than at the close of last week. Calves were steady to 25c lower.

There were no more than enough sheep and lambs to meet the normal requirements of the local trade. The quality and condition of the offerings were as good or better than yesterday and other conditions made it possible to maintain prices in a steady position. Choice to extra spring lambs sold for $8.00 to$.25 and common kinds as low as $5.00 Good to extra clipped lambs sold at $6.75 to 7.00 and culls to best sheep for $2.00 to 5.00.
