The countv commissioners of Lake county granted 42 liquor licenses at their last meeting, so there is no fear of a drouth of liquid refreshments in Lake the coming summer. & ■ To a man up a tree it looks like the Congressional Convention at Lafayette endorsed Congressman Crumpacker because he voted for the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill and then turned around and endorsed Senator Beveridge because he voted against it. Consistency. th<>u art a jewel.-—Low-ell Tribune, (Rep.) - In the "wet" and “dry" elections in Illinois Tuesday the wets made a net gain of six Count les., they gaining nine districts and I<ising three. Out of. a total of 261 citie>. villages and towns voting 142 voted "wet." while 119 voted “dry." ()f this number 50 were "dry” ami went “wet," while about 25 were “wet" and went “dry." Practically all the larger cities and towns went "wet," nd the gains made by the "wet" adherents is taken as a revulsion against absolute prohibition. sav the latter.

• The democrats fared pretty well in Tuesday’s elections, making great gains almost -everywhere. In Chicago they gained the city council by a working majority. The result is significant as foreshadowing the ■probable Outcome of next fall’s elections and the probable passing of all the city machinery into the hands of the Democrats. I ntii Tuesday the Republicans had the mayor and fprty-one aidermen. as against twenty-nine Democratic members.. The new council will stand: Democrats, thirty-nine: Republicans, thirtyone: Independent, 1. The latter will vote’ with the Republicans, but the Democrats have enough margin to put through anV legislation. They carried twenty-one of the thirty-five wards. Previously they had but seventeen wards in the Democratic column.

The republican state convention nominated Otis E. Gulley, of Danville, fdr secretary of state ; John Reed, of Muncie l for auditor; Edward V. Fitzpatrick, of Portland for clerk of the supreme .court; W. & Blatchley for Geologist ; J L. Peetz, of Kokomo for statistician; Oscar Montgomery, of Seymour and Robert M. Miller. of Franklin for judges of the supreme’ court; Ward H. Watson, of Charlestown, Cassius C. Hadley, of Indianapolis, Daniel W. Comstock, of Richmond, Joseph M. Rabb, of Williamport and Harn* B. Tuthill, of Michigan City for Appellate court judges; Jonce Monyhan, of Orleans for treasurer; Finley P. Mount, of Crawfordsville for at-torney-general; and Samuel C

Ferrell, of Shelbyville for Supt. of public instruction. Judge Robey, who has sat on the Appellate bench for several years, was defeated for nominaton to the ; supreme court bench by Robert M. Miller of Indianapolis.

FATAL EVIDENCE FOUND.

Three Empty Whisky Bottles In Hall Where the Republican Convention 1 Was Held. Indianapolis, Ind., April 6. Carelessness on the part of some of ' the delegates to yesterday’s insurgent convention caused the Republicans to be branded today as the “whisky party.” In spite of the fact that the Republicans forgot to mention county local option in their platform, it is believed that they might have worried through the campaign without unusual odium being attached to them, but to-day 'the Prohibitionists found three empty whisky bottles in Tomlinson Hall. , . _ \ Always on the alert for circumstantial evidence, the Prohibition ■ leaders quickly »put two and two together and proved conclusively to several hundred delegates to their state convention that the three empty bottles had been left by the Republicans. The three empty flasks were ranged in a row by Chairman F. W. Lough so that the delegates could judge for themselves of the infamy - of the Republicans. However, wishing to cinch the case, E. W. Clark, Secretary of the Prohibition committee, poured a few drops of the liquid from one of the bottles. The liquid didn’t look like whisky, but it had something of the necessary odor. ’ ' ■ r

Why Are Wagons Painted? A cheap wagon is painted to hide defects in the wood and make it look attractive to the purchaser. Even theipaint is of poor quality and wears off quickly, ‘leaving the wood exposed to the weather. A Studebaker is painted to preserve the wood and protect it from the elements. Even when the boxing is forced into the hub, it is covered with pure lead in order to keep moisture out of the hub. You cannot see that, but it’s there just the same. The paint used on a is chosen for its wear and weather resisting qualities. It may not look much different from the “cheap” wagon when new, 3ut — Ask us for the book, “The Farm* er’s Friend,” which shows just how the Studebaker is made. C. A.
