‘FIRE DEMOCRATS;! IS CRY OF INDIANA G.O.P. HOLDERS Organization Formed to Oust Followers of Jackson and Jefferson, PURNELL AIDS DAN CUPID Representative Merril Moores Denies He Knows Everything. BY JOHN CARSON Times Staff Correspondant WASHINGTON, March 20—Woe unto the Indiana Democrats who hold Government jobs outside the civil service. The Republican jobholders from Indiana have declared war. They want a census of all the Indiana jobholders who are Democrats. They demand the chiefs of departments kick out the Democratic jobholders. The jobholders formed an organization known as a Republican State Voters Association. They are a group distinct from the Government workers from Indiana. The workers are tinder civil service, as a rule, and are little concerned about politics except j in those hours when the party j politician invades the civil service and ! gets Jobs. The jobholders don't insist on working. They promise rather to I assist In getting out the vote in election time. The jobholders had their meeting the other night and Postmaster General New talked to them. New prated about the glories of the Harding Administration. The jobholders took It all in without a sigh or murmur. That was part "of their j service to the cause. Then they got I busy. Their real work was to de- j nounce the Democratic jobholders and with much enthusiasm they cried out for more pap for more Republican workers. Asked About Oil Stock Representative Merrill Moores admits to some knowledge, but that he is an authority on everything, he denies. Moores had a telegram from a citi-j zen in Indianapolis. He wanted to know whether he should buy a certain oil stock. Moores wired he knew nothing about oil stocks. The oil stock telegram is the latest demand. Moores has an average of one inquiry a week as to real estate conditions in certain parts of the city. | Another Hoosier has a patent method for a tunr.ei under the English channel, starting at tiie “rock of Gibraltar.”

I’umell Aids Matrimony One success as a match-maker does not commit Representative Purcell to the job, permanently. Purnell had a letter from a woman in his district. She wanted a husband. Purnell made the letter public and she got a husband. The last time Purnell was home she introduced him to her husband. Now Purnell has another letter from the same woman. She says the firs: raan did not turn out to be all she ex aected and she wants another hus oand. She is not divorced but will be, perhaps. She wants inquiries addressed to a friend also —because her husband insists on opening her letters and reading them. COLLINS DEMANDS GREAIER CARE IN ISSUING WARRANTS

Judge Acquits Woman on Appeal From Fine in City Court. flouted illegal search warrants issued by the city court for police raids will not be approved by Criminal Court, says Judge James A. Collins. “This is America.'' said the judge. Rights of citizens ag;unst illegal or unreasonable search and seizure will be protected by his court, he said. Evidence Is Barred Judge Collins, Monday, found Mrs. Louise Barcer, Apartment i, 964 N. Meridian St., not guilty of operating a blind tiger, after he ruled any evidence obtained against her in a raid under a city court search warrant could not be introduced. The writ was illegal, he said. She had appealed a fine of SSO in city court The writ was obtained on an affidavit sworn out by a policeman by order of his superior officer, who had complaints from “neighbors” about Mrs. Barger, the officer testified. Judge Collins frequently has strongly expressed himself “against the practice of breaking into and tramping through homes on the strength of anonvmous telephone complaints and the like." Says Booze Was Found. The policeman witness told the judge, not as evidence, that both whisky and beer were found in the Barger home. “Search warrants to enter homes will have to be legal,” Judge Collins •eclared. “They can only be issued When some person of his own knowledge makes affidavit that law is be- •*. violated ,e.”

HOOSiERSLEARN KOW ID REPAIR j IMAGED TREES Department of Agriculture; Sends Out Bulletin After Storm. How to restore giant oaks, beautiful maples and other trees whose limbs were torn off or damaged during severe recent wind storms Is told in a bulletin reaching Indianapolis today from the United States Department of Agriculture at Washington. A reminder is made that a few dollars spent in repair work now may i save hundreds of dollars for tree surgery in ten years. Persons wishing detailed informa-j tion are to! ! to send for Farmers’ Bulto*in ! 178. Dvision of Publications,: Department of Agriculture. Washing- j ton, D. C. Menaces Removed. Jhe department makes these sug- j gestions: Remove such large broken branches ! as arc now. or may become, a menace I to life and property by cutting at the j point “re broken. Attention should j then i .- given to injuries on the main ; trunk. If limbs have been split, or partially split, from the main trunk, all splintered wood about the wound should be removed with a sharp conge and mallet, if no tso situated that it can be sawed off. The scar shoruld be smothered in the manner indicated in Farmers’ Bulletin 1178. j and treated as an open cavity, or as , a large surface wound. Attention should npxt be given to repairing the injuries on the larger branches in a similar manner, and last of all to the smaller branches. Sometimes when a limb is broken away the tree is so weakened that it may break again in a severe wind, and to obviate this the top must be pruned back more or less severely. In case of split crotches, the advice given in the bulletin should be followed regarding the general treatment, including bolting through and above the crack. In Large Estates In cases of estates whore a great amount of injury has occurred, and only a comparatively small force is j available for repairs, the final cutting ! of long stubs can be conveniently left ! for a time, but wounds or breaks on i the main trunk, or close to it. should be attended to promptly, in any case before warm weather arrives. It is not necessary to fill cavities, j It is better in most cases to leave | them open. All final cuts should be • immediately covered with some good j antiseptic and waterproof paint. It will not necessary to treat specially j the ends of long stubs that are to be i removed close to the trunk later in ; the season. In no part of repair work should climbing spurs be used on a tree. Spur marks cause injuries through which it is possible for disease and decay germs to enter and cause damage, in some cases more severe than would j have developed from the original I simple break. FIERY, ITCHY ECZEMA HEALED RIGHT UP BY APPLYING SULPHUR

Any breaking out of the skin, even fiery, itching eczeinf can be quickly overcome by applying a little MenthoSulphur. says a noted skin specialist. Because of its germ destroying properties, this sulphur preparation instantly brings ease from skin irritation, soothes and heals the eczema right up and leaves tiie skin clear and smooth.
