Representative Harry 8fcrickl tnd has announced his candidacy Bpeaker thtj n^xt, Hoase Of RepreBentatives and was one of the first to announce. In an interview with a representative of the Indianapolis Star Friday, Mr S rickland said: "You can state, unqualifiedly that. I am a candidate for ihe speakership. My platform is short. I etand lor oldfashioned Democratic economy and if 1 am elected speaker I ehall do my best to bring about, greater economy in legislation and in the administration ot the state's affairs."

To a j-epreseniative of this paper, Mr. Strickland confirmed this statement as it appeared in the Slar. In speaking fur hur on legislative economy, Mr. S rickl ind saut he was in favor of bhrt Sr,ace's w.iivie and Si ate institutions being properly and sufficiently provided tor and taken care of. "There are many ways in which economy can be practical and no person or institution suffer." said Mr. Str ckland, and cited as an instance, the bill introduced in tie la9t legislature by himself, which reduced the state publishing and printing bill about $30.01)0 He is of the opinion that there are many unnecessary offices in the state and that expenses could be reduced and still the state not be made to suffer by cutting them off.

When asked about redis ricting the Btate for congressional and legislative purposes, he said it was a big subject to discuss off hand but said it would surely be done and done properly by the next legislature. "There is no doubt," said Mr. Strickland, "about John W. Kern going to the Senate. He was one of the issues." when asked about the local option proposition, he said be was in favor of having all that was in the state platform of the Democrats enacted into law and by so doing, fulfill the pledges of the party to the people. He said the people voted as they did, expecting the men elected by them to carry out fully the party's pledges.

Bazil P. Summers, ago 61 years, died at 11 o'clock Saturday evening at his home on the George W. Cooper place west of the city. Mr. Summers moved to this farm last Tuesday and was taken sick with acute bronchitis while unloading the household goods from the wagon. He grew steadily worse until death. He leaves a wife and one daughter, Mrs. Cora Cook, of Indianapolis. Mr. Summers was from North Carolina, where a greater number of his relatives live. The funeral occurred Monday at 1:30 o'clock at the Presbyterian chuioh.

tunities For Making Money In Real

Estate Investments.

E. J. Chambers, who a few days ago sold his farm of 185 acres of land south of Dunreith, made more money in the transaction than most men in this part of the country are making. He made $12, 250 in four months and eight days, which is at the rate of about $100 a day, says the Newcastle Daily Times. I Mr, Chambers came to Dunreith a little over four months ago and went south a short distance in Rush county anl bought a farm of 1S5 acres, for which he paid $100 an acre. In the deal for the land he secured the land owner's share of the stock on hand

As stated above he kept the land four months and eight days and then sold it at $150 an acre and kept the stock he had on the farm, the stock bein valued at $3000. The increase of $50 per acre in price on 185 acres made him $9,250, and he has cleaned up at) the rate of about $100 a day for the last four months.

STRICKLAND'S CHANCES GOOD.

Has Location, Long Experience and Popularity in His Favor for Speaker of House.

In the contest for speaker of the next House of representatives in the Indiana legislature, there are eight candidates they are Harry G. Strickland, of this city W. W. Spencer and Adolph Steinstocker, of Indianapolis Michael Thornton, of New Albany, Joseph M. Cravens, of Madison Albert J. Venneman, of Evansville S. Wells, of Scottsburg and John B. Paulknor, of Michigan City.

Mr. Strickland has served two regular terms and the special session in the legislature, and has been reelected for a third term. He was one of the most popular members of the house during the terms he has served. His chances at this time seem to be very good for speaker.

The fact that the Marion county delegation will be divided between its two candidates practically takes them out of the contest. With them out of the contest, Mr. Strickland is the only candidate in the central part of the state. It is safe to assume that the candidates from the north part would prefer him for speaker to a candidate from the extreme south part, and vice versa as to the candidates from the south part of the state toward those of the north.

As the matter now stands Mr. Strickland seems to be the logical candidate and with his popularity, his extended experience aud service, it now looks like he would be the speaker.

Won Coffin oo Election.

Strange wagers are often made on the results of an election but exSheriff John Burk found himself against a chilling sensation Wednesday as the result of a bet he had made with undertaker Marshall G. Tindall, says the Shelbyville News. The latter bet Mr. Burk a casket valued at $150 against $1.50 that Judge Sparks would be re-elected. The judge lost and Wednesday Mr. Tindall showed Mr. Burk his prize. The former sheriff has been against some .tough proposition in his career but never one that made his blood run so cold as did the sight of the coffin and he fled from its presence, leaving it in the possession of Mr. Tindall.

No ordinance is needed these days, especially of mornings, to prevent loafing on the court house lawn and curbing. The outside loafing places are now deserted until spring comes again.

Plant a Tree.

Many years ago it was a custom when a child was born to commemorate the event by planting a tree. Today there are many trees sacredly guarded because they were planted by or for some one whos3 memory it was desired to perpetuate. Every reader of this article no doubt recalls one or more trees with which are associated pleaeant recollections. It may be the one in the yard under which you were accustomed to play. It may be the one that sheltered you when overtaken by a storm on vour way to and from school. It' may be the one on the river bank under which you sat with fishing pole in hand. It may be the one under which you and your lover exchanged vows, or it may be made dear to you by any one of the many incidents of life. When your child is grown, give it an opportunity to possess a living tree which it can call its own, Mary's and John's trees will always be cared for with tender hands, and when their namesake has forsaken the old homestead, there will always be a yearning to see "my tree" again.

N. J. Pauley and family of Indianapolis were here Sunday the guest of Mrs. A. E. Carson.
