Nothing built at the j present time will touch Evansville’s pert.” Plans New Air Wonder /• : United Press MARSHALL. Mo.. Oct. 13.—Walter Henry Barling, noted designer of the United States Army air bombers, is developing here a monoplane said to be able to raise after a run of forty feet. The ship is powered by a 80-horse-power motor. The distinctive feature of the plane is anew curve in the wing design which permits the craft quickly to attain “safety altitude." Barling said. “The beauty of the new designs,” j he continued, “lies in the fact that I the plane gets its so-called ‘safety’ ! altitude more quickly than even the j fastest and most powerful pursuit j ship ever built. “It leaves the field in two seconds j and goes up in a straight fast zoom for 500 or 1,00 feet. It can climb 1,000 feet from the ground in 27 seconds.” Giant Zep to Be ‘Searched’ Iljt Times Siiieial WASHINGTON Oct. 13.—Customs men are ready for the arrival of the huge dirigible Graf Zeppelin when she lands in the United States with her passengers, Frank Dow, assistant commissoiner, said today.

'liner,” the deputy commissioner ex- | plained. “When a vessel is desig-j nated in the law, it applies to the j airship as well as the ocean-going | learner.”

Buried in a tangled mass of scaffolding that supports a jazz work of signboards, barnacled over with the architectural excrescencesthat have accrued to it in the course of years, the old dwelling of the State Bank of Indiana, built in 1840, still stands in the angle of Illinois St. and Kentucky Ave., sacI ing the busiest comer of Washingj ton.

daily tread by not knowing they are rubbing shoulders against history. The small picture shows the building in its original state.
Now the pillars can be seen only by peering between the signboards, and even then their lower half is covered by the wall that leans against it; its lawn, front and side, has been filled with low brick structures which have been plastered on it and which house the theater, two bars, trunk-and-jew’elry store, and whatnot. In 1868 the building was sold to the Franklin Insurance Company and later was bought as an investment by the Emery estate of Cincinnati. About fifteen years ago it came into the hands of the Jennings Brothers Real Estate Company, which now owms it. Today the building stands a strange anachronism among the tall tidy modern structures about it, hiding its dingy pillors in outraged dignity.

RECORD IS SET FOR SKY MAIL High Mark in September; October Even Better. Btt Times Special WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.—September established anew record for air mail carried and October will be even better, postoffice officials said today. In September the poundage was 423,991, compared with 419,047 in August. The gain of 4,944 pounds was made, despite five Sundays, five Saturdays and one holiday during the month, when mail is unusually light. The Chicago-San Francisco route carried the greatest volume in either month, with New York-Chicago second. The least amount, 2,948 pounds, was carried on Dallas-Galveston route. Although air mail service with Mexico has been established, no figures have been received on the poundage going into and coming out of that country at Laredo. Reduced rates and seasonal increase are responsible for the gains. Officials said this would be the largest air mail year in postoffice history, many new routes being put into operation and with the rate at a point w'here most people prefer to use the air mail.

In this chapter of ’ The Presidential Parade.” Rodney Dutcher tells of Lincoln's Kreat worry and the part union victories played in his re-election. V BY RODNEY DUTCHER NEA Service Writer 'Copyright, 1928. NEA Service, Inc.) B WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.—Sheridan, Sherman and Farragut carried the wartime election for Abraham Lincoln in 1864. Three months before, the Democrats, declaring the Civil War a failure and demanding peace, had seemed likely to beat him despite his warnings to the country not to "swap horses while crossing a stream.” Republican hopes went up and down w’ith the success of the Union armies. With no victories through the summer of 1864, great masses of people in the north were sick of the terrible war and wanted it to end. Suddenly, in early fall, the Union forces began to clean up. General Sherman captured Atlanta, General Sheridan swept through the Shenandoah Valley and Admiral Farragut was victorious on Mobile Bay. Lincoln worried anxiously over both his renomination and re-election. His arbitrary suspension of the writ of habeaus corpus, followed by his strategic Emancipation Proclamation and his defiance of the Supreme Court, drove many into the arms of the anti-Union Copperheads. Political opposition based on patronage disappointments also arose.
The new Republican party, in power, for the first time, demanded a clean sweep of the Federal Jobs. Lincoln adopted the spoils system, but the great rush swamped him. Woe, Woe Everywhere No President ever had such woes. Abroad, Britain threatened to recognize the Confederacy. Before him was the southern army; behind him a strong Democratic party, a cabinet that had to be met in sections to keep it from breaking down and strong Republican critics like Senators Thaddeus Stevens and Charles Sumner and Horace Greeley. Secretary of the Treasury Salmon P. Chase resigned from the cabinet, declared against two terms for a President, insisted a man different than Lincoln’s type must conclude the war and plotted for the Republican nomination. Senator Pomeroy issued his famous circular calling Lincoln’s reelection impossible and founding a Chase-for-President society. Lincoln Still Worrying Just before the Republican convention at Baltimore, June 7, while Llpcoln was still worrying—“though his nomination was sure”— radical Republicans called a convention at Cleveland which nominated John C. Fremont, the party’s first candidate in 1856, and General John Cochrane. It platform was anti-second term and denounced wartime oppression. Fremont accepted the nomination, assailing Lincoln for feebleness and high-handed war measures. Johnson Is Running Mate All delegates at the regular Republican convention voted for Lincoln except the Missourians, who voted for Grant. Lincoln then jammed through the vice presidential nomination of Andrew Johnson, a self-educated former tailor with a fine loyal record as Governor of Tennessee. The Democrats met in Chicago in August and nominated General George B. McClellan, who had been removed from the Union command in 1862. The platform attacked Lincoln’s abuses of power and demanded peace immediately. McClellan carried 45 per cent of the popular vote, but only the States of Delaware, Kentucky and New Jersey. Lincoln carried New York against Tammany Hall’s bitter opposition by only 7,000 in a poll of 730,000 and Pennsylvania by but 20,000. The popular and electoral vote: Popular Electoral Lincoln 2.33(1,000 212 McClellan 1,830.000 21 The soldier vote, included, was 117,000 for Lincoln to 34,000 for “Mac.” Next: The people disgusted with party politicians.

Although doctors have not fully diagnosed the illness, It Is believed to have been sleeping sickness.
HOOVER GIVEN MOREPLEDGES Multitudes Whom He Helped Rally to His Side. Bjt Times Special WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.—The bread which Herbert Hoover cast Upon the waters a decade ago is coming back to him now in the form oof votes. One of the amazing features of his campaign is the number of pledges pouring into his personal headquarters each day from spokesmen for groups who were among the millions of central European populations whom he saved from starvation during the post-war period. Some come from the children of aged parents who were kept alive through the efforts of the A. R. A., as Hoover’s relief organization was known: some from men and women who have since imm? grated to this country, and will cast their first naturalized vote for Hoover in payment of the ten-year-old debt of gratitude. One Chicagoan outstanding among his race summed up the feelings of racial groups who remember what Hoover did ten years ago. “I don’t want anything from you,” he said. "I could not fill any post you have to give me. But I have made money since I came here. I can finance and distribute literature among my people, telling what you did for me. Please put me to work.” The support of these groups is particularly pleasing to Republican chieftains, for it comes from elements among which the Democrats look for Smith strength. Most of these people have wet sympathies.
