G. O.P. BACKERS IN MISSOURI SEE CQOLIDGE SLICE La Follette Vote Drawing From Davis Instead of . Republicans, Bv LOWELL, MELLETT Times Staff Correspondent ST. LOUIS, Mo.. Oct. 25.—The La Follette vote In Misouri a month ago nas thought to have rendered It impossible for Coolidge to repeat Har'tlng’s victory In this State. Now Davis managers are beginning to fear that the La Follette vote will be the very thing that gives the State to Coolidge. They are less confident in their predictions that Davis will carry the State. The Republican party was the first to feel the deflection of votes to La P'oliette. It was found Impossible to hold the big German vote in St. Louis in line against the Wisconsin Senator', and that meant practically wiping out of usual Republican majority in this city. The Republicans entertained little hope until in recent weeks they began to discover that alignlabor for La Follette is real and that it meant a severe blow' to Davis. They have chirked up and begun to talk atgmt winning. Another factor to chder them is the reopening of the Klan issue. They expect Ccolidg© to get the Klan votes. Favor Davis The chances, however, still seem to favor Davis. There is a story afloat In St. Louis that sample bal l ots have been prepared by Republican workers to show voters how they can vote for La Follette and still support Republican State ticket. This, if true, would indicate little hope of carrying the State for Coolidge. Missouri reverts this year to the blanket ballot, which some years ago was surfjlanted by the ribbon ballot, which made it very difficult for voters to split their votes. Blanket ballots are expected materially to help La Follette. A real gain of the past few days for La Follette is the coming out of Richard Bartholdt. former Congressman. Bartholdt presided Last night at a meeting addressed by Senator Wheeler. The railroad vote in Missouri Is coming from both parties to Li Follette while the railroad centers of Kansas City, Moberly, Hannibal and Chaffee are normally Democratic. Those of St. Louis. Sedalia and Springfield are Republican. A Little Persuasion Missouri newspapers relate an Interesting attempt at Springfield to “Persuade"' the voters tn the Frisco railroad shops, a notice posted, it is saiti, by the local *mperint<'ndent* contains these paragraphs: “Before casting your vote in the November election you must take into consideration the fact that the policies of some candidates (if elected) will prove detrimental to interests of the workman. If any of you wish Information as to Just how various candidates stand I will be glad to discuss the same with your respective foreman, who will be very glad to assist you in the matter.”

I worked all day and when there was any extra work to be done I would stay at the shop and do it to earn a little more. It was a severe strain in my health, but I was strong and used to It, and I didn't mind, because I was doing it for my family. That did very well when I was young, but I got a little older my health began to break down. My legs gave out now and then. W? had some money in the bank, and the property nearly paid for. His Son Goes Wrong Then one of the sons added to mv worry. He began to hang around poolrooms, and to drink, despite everything I could do. I was not a drinking man myself, although I would take a glass of beer at noon with the other workmen. He went to the bad, and is still there somewhere. I suppose when he gets old he will be a candidate for admission out here, like I was. but for different reasons. Next, my wife, with whom I had lived thirty-four years, became dissatisfied. Care of an aging man who couldn't walk part of the tinso, was too much of a strain on her. So she left, and we divided the money, she taking the personal property. We sold our Interest in the home. 11.1 to, because I couldn't work enough to meet the payments. Doctors Got His Share I spent my share on doctors. They told me I had .used up my vitality by overwork, which brought on this paralysis. A person only has a certain store of strength, and when that is gone he is through, whether ho is dead or not. Y r ou can’t burn the candle of life at both ends, whether It Is by running around at night and working by day, or whether it Is by working at day and then doing some more work at nignt. Either way, you don't get your rest, and in the years you break down. After iny money was gone then of course I had to be brought here. Well, It can’t be helped. I did the best I knew how, and I still have one daughter who sticks by her old dad. Marriage Licenses Charles J Parker. Jr., til. cashier. 1900 Beliefnntalne: Ella H.

"the father of his country.” They regard tho frreat commander of the Revolution not only as a great general, but as a great patriot, and above all, a wise counsellor. All our leaders. In all I parties, frequently refer to his advice and | point to the wise maidms he gave for ! the guidance of the nation. Here i* what George Washington said in h\* ad- | dress to the Catholics of the United State* | on March 12. 1790 (Guilday'* "Life and ! Times of Archbishop Carroll,’’ p. 268). ”1 | hope ever to see America among the foremost nations in example of justice and liberality. And I presume that your fellow citizens will not forget the patriotic part which you took in the accomplishment of their Revolution and the establishtntnt of their government, or the important assistance which they received from a nation in which the Roman Catholic faith is professed.” His Views on Bigotry On Nov. 5, 1775. in an order issued prohibiting some non Catholic* of Boston from burning the Pope in effigy. Gen. Washington said. “A a the commander in chief has been apprised of a design formed for the observance of that ridiculous and childish custom of burning the effigy of the Pope, ho can not hlp expressing his surprise that there should be officers and men in his army so devoid of common sense as not to see the impropriety of such a sfpp. It is so monstrous as not to be suffered or excused; indeed instead of offering the most remote insult it is our duty to address public thanks to our Catholic brethren, as to them we are indebted for success over the common enemy in Canada.” And see Washington s high tribute to the unselfish patriotism and fidelity of his aides, (Sparke's writings, volume 3. pp 368-70) evidences his supreme confidence In those Catholics at perilous times when many friends were false. The chief of those sides was COL. JOHN FITZGERALD of Alexandria. Va. (See Dr. Richard H. Clarke's book, ‘The Father of His Country.”) Here could be given a long list of the Catholic patriots who were foremost in the great struggle of the Revolution. COMMODORE JOHN BARRY. "Father of the American Navy,” to whom a monument stands at Washington, was a Catholic. GEN. STEPHEN MOTLAN. the great cavalry commander of the Revolution, was a Catholic. CAFT. .IE REM lAH O’BRIEN who won the first naval victory at Mach!as off the coast of Maine, was a Catholic. J. Fenimore Cooper described that battle as the "Lexington of the seas.” The wealthiest signer of the Declaration of Independence was CHARLES CARROLL <*’ CARROLLTON, and a noted Catholic leader in his time. A newspaper page might be devoted to printing in small type the names of the Catholics who figured prominently in the liberation of the American colonies. Representation in the Government Today The President, of the United States and bis secretary and the ten members of the Cabinet are Protestants. Ninety-six senators are Protestants, two Mormons and only five Catholic*. Representatives. 389 members of Congress are Protestants. 7 are .Tews. 1 is a Mormon and only 38 are Catholics. Number of Catholics in the nation., 26 per eent: in the Cabinet., 0: in the Senate, 5 1-5 per cent; in the House, S-i per cent. And yet there is wide-spread propaganda among our fellow citizens to make it appear that Catholics are "running the government.” occupying most of the offices and that the Catholic Church is in politics. There are 23 Catholic churches In Indianapolis and Marion county. The gospel of Christ is preached in these churches every day and Sunday. They are open all the time. No Catholic clergyman ever sneaks on political questions from the pulpit. For further particulars call of write THE CATHOLIC INFORMATION BURK AIT 802-804 FIDELITY TRUST BLDG.. 1 INDIANAPOLIS.
