With rubber so high priced, it is strange that so many rubber Bhoes are being worn by politicians. But gum shoes are fashionable everywhere in politics now, and fashion is mighty.

Another bright and promising college boy pays for the brutal sport of foot ball with his life. Ralph Wilson, of Crawfordsville, a member of the Wabash college team was killed in the game at St. Louis last Saturday. Does foot ball pay the terrible price?

Everybody is predicting surprises in the coming election. The bosses •everywhere are up in air. They do not seem to understand people whom they have always understood in the past. They may in the remaining two weeks whip them into line but "up to yit" there is nothing doing. It is the same in all parties.

No man ever made a cleaner fight for the United States Senate than Albert J. Beveridge is making. He has never allowed himself to resort to personalities or to mere party prejudice. He is making his campaigh on principles and is asking support and endorsement from the voters of Indiana because he stands for the rights of the people.

A quarter section of land within less than two miles of Greenfield "which is on the market at $110 per acre is the greatest real estate bargain that we have seen in Hancock county in many a day. The man who buys it can put on it all the improvements that it needs, and then have it •at a price which inside of ten years -would make him independently rich. JMen who are looking for well located i-tarms should not let it pass at (110 per acre within almost a stona's throw of sthe corporate limits of Greenfield.

A great many Democrats who adsoijre Governor Marshall will not vote of local option,

The stand-pat Republicans are fighting Col. Roesevelt in New York and are going to vote the Democratic ticket. Bourke Cork-ran, one of the most brilliant campaign orators in New York, who has represented his district in Congress as a Democrat, has announced ithat he will support the Republican ticket. It is inti mated that William R. Hurst, though on the League ticket for lieutenant governor of New York is really in sympathy with the Roosevelt movement and their ticket in the Empire state. Uncle Joe Cannon who for years has been the Headliner spellbinder of his party, is in no demand this campaign, and in the very midst of the home stretch of the contest is taking absolute rest from political labors. Mr. Bryan who has not only been popular throughout the United States, but the idle of his adopted state of Nebraska for twenty years is not only discredited,, there by the bosses of his party, but will probably refuse to vote for the candidate for governor on his party ticket, because he thinks the ticket was dictated by the whiskey and brewery interest of Nebraska. Truly these are perilous times in politics, wherever you look in. It is the same in both parties. But Oh, you people! You will yet win, and then things will be better.

It is no longer a strange thing for a state to change its politics. The time was when most of the states were properly classed in one or the other political parties. A few states like Indiana and New York were listed as doubtful but most of them were so sure, as to be safely estimated before elections. Many states are now changed. Maine, Kansas, Ohio, Minnesota, Missouri and Kentucky are battle grounds between parties, and even Massachusetts and Tennessee are inviting party contests. The people are awakening everywhere and are demanding certain reforms, and unless they secure them, they will defeat the dominating party. The bosses in all parties are dying hard. They cannot realize a political condition in which they are not supreme. They even contend for small things like the chairmanship of conventions, like the fight in New York. They still retain the spirit of not allowing even the political crumbs to fall to anyone who does not do their absolute bidding. This tenacity for small things shows the abject servitude which they would have perpetuated in order that they may dominate parties in the future and thrive on the ill gotten spoils. These exceedingly selfish instincts will ultimately be one of the strongest elements in the undoing of the bosses.

The season of the 3 ear when pilfex*ing, thefts and burglaries become most common. It is therefore necessary for the people to be more careful about leaving their money and other valuables exposed to easy access of prowlers. Public officers whose duty it is to detect crime and criminals should be on the alert at all times looking after and keeping under surveillance all suspicious characters. It is their duty to protect society by preventing crime as much as possible. The peace officer is more efficient who prevents a thief, than the one who catches the theft after the crime has been committed. Criminals soon learn where a close watch is kept, and they avoid such places. That peace officer serves his constituents best who "locks the stable door before the horse is stolen."

The common people perhaps do not have any idea of the pressure brought to bear on their official representatives by selfish interest. Neither do they comprehend the designing schemes that are concocted to intimidate, defeat, suppress or squelsh officials that refuse to do their bidding. We believe at this time that there are powerful influences at work to discredit and drive out of public life many courageous and able men who are working in the interest of the people against wrongs that exist. It is a fight which will never end until the wrongs are eliminated. No matter how the coming elections terminate, the struggle will never cease until the wrongs are righted.

Quite a great deal of interest is being taken in different places throughout Hancock county in revival meetings.
