CALL FOR CONGRESSIONAL CONVENTION.

The democrats of the Tenth! Congressional district and all others who de-ire to co-operate with them, arc directed to select delegates in each county in' the district for the congressional convention which will be held in Hammond, on WEDNESDAY, JUNE 8, 1910, for the purpose ot selecting a candidate for congress for said district. • d ' The basis of representation will be one delegate for each 200 and one for each" fraction of 200 over 100 votes east for Thos. R. Marshall for governor in 1908. Jasper county is entitled to Eight. Delegates in said convention. C. J. MURPHY, District /Chairman.

The staterdent made by a paid officer of the Anti-Saloon League that the members of that organization (if it has any real members), should '‘work tooth and nail for the Republicans” in thU dampaign did not come as a surprise. Neither did the later announcement, of the head officer of the league that the wonc would be done locally and in a. “non-partisan” way.' The proposition to fore? Democratic canr —the legislature to stultify themselves by declaring that they will follow the league instead of their patty is merely a part of the general plan to work tooth and nail for the Republicans. v

"Hark! From the tombs a doleful sound/’ Hon. John Qveri myer of North Vernon; IncL, has resurrected himself and pushed •out into the campaign in the interest of Senator Beveridge. The > Hon. John is - noted for that high, [[degree • perspicacity which e*. liable? hint to'attach himself;: to : the los-inar side. ... p . . Pr-. -i lent Taft n A only spends r .>. appropriation pf y S2S';QOO a ■ year f r traveling experise-. but tor more J.is out. And yet he said something abc ut it being necessary to ' out down expense. But of ■.course- he meant tne otner peoi pie’s expenses, in order that they | might have something left with ! which to pay the exorbitant taxes levied upon them by the : government and the tariff-fed i trusts. ■

A letter to the Indianapolis News from Washington says that the standpatters in are making a heroic effort to spread broadcast the impression that the act of the house in vu ing to appropriate $250,000 for the maintenance of the present tariff board for another year means that something really is to be done in the way of a tariff investigation. Privately, however, says the same article, the standpatters “are congratulating each other over the way they have fooled the public." But the public has not been fooled. The preposterous tariff board will do nothing except spend the $250,000. That, is all it is for—that and to fool the people, who refuse to be fooled even a little bit.

In the Marion county primary election last week the Republican legislative slate which was advertised as being “undoubtedly } for Beveridge," was turned down and a slate backed by “Big Chief" Joe Kealing political manager for the Jrairbanks-'Hemen-way faction, was nominated. 1 Others of Beveridge's friends j who were candidates for other • offices were also defeated by men j backed by the other faction. Of ; course the successful candidates | say that they are also friendly to I the senator, but they vjri’l hardly Ibe believed unless they furnish j affidavit- *o that effect arid give a substantial bond to back up.the i affidavits. A- a re-ult of the primaries the feeling between the t\v i factions is' more bitter than l ever—and that is saving a good ] I deal. -

TAFT’S TRAVELING EXPENSES.

President Taft i- getting $7 5000 a year salary, which is 525.000 more than any other president ever received. In addition, an appropriation of $25,000. a year was made by congress _ for Mr. Taft’s traveling exenses. The year covered by this appropriati m does not end until June 3u. but Mr. Taft has spent all of hitravelirtgCtnon'ey. He ha- gone vo and down the country in exi. o-.-n-iyely equipped trains and with a costlv company of servant-. retainer- and courtiers. In hi- journings he --ha- not traveled as mere president of the United States, but largely as a Republican politician, making partisan speeches and endeavo. ing to make or to save vote- for the Republican party and to win support for his own personal and peculiar policies. The people would not seriously *object to paying the traveling expenses of the president of the United States, but they have a right to object and do object to paying the traveling expenses of a Republican stump speaker. Mr. Taft has been an expensive luxury. In one Way and another he has allied himself with persons- and interests of which the people are justly- suspicious, and has' championed men and acts that public sentiment does not approve. If he insists upon traveling, therefore, he should either cut these things out or pay his own expenses.

BACK TO THE FARM.

What all other inducemeni fail to do in getting people to go back to the farm is being accomplished in some sections by the high price of living and the good prices obtained for farm produce. People in the cities are feeling the pinch of hving as never before. Salaries remain stationary or nearly so while prices of necessaries of life are soaring. Putting two and two together many have reached the sensible conclusion that it is far better to be

producers and live comfortably f in the country than to be '‘Consumers and half starve on a meagre salary ip the city.—Exchange. '• : :-W .

GROW HEMP IN INDIANA.

Department of Agriculture Prel diets Industry Will Expand in the State. WasoingtonH June 3 —The ceyartment of agriculture predict: that the day is not far distant when hemp will be cultivated extensively in Indiana. The bureau f plant industry points out that during the last two years, hemp has been grown succes sfuliy at K :-uts and North Liberty. in the state. Excellent crops bay e been obtained-in-the stats. by urea,u say-, during the last two seasons on peaty soil over : arL Most of the hemp no\v cultivated in this country, amounting to from fifteen to twenty thousand acres annually, is grown in the blue grass region of Kentucky, of which Lexington is the center. About six hundred acres are grown each year near Lincoln. Neb., and. an area oj about the same size in the lower Sacramento valley, in California. For the benefit of Indiana farmer: who- may desire to experiment in hemp growing, the bureau of soils suggests that the crop may be introduced in any. crop r -tat: >n but it is best to have it foil >w peas, beans or cl ver. It may follow corn or grain, providing there crops are well fertilized. All the. hemp fiber produced in this country 1- use 1 in American ill-, and increasing' quantities are being imported. Mills are r near Boston. New York. Philadelphia. Cincinnati and San Francisco. The price r r’Ugh fiber tied up in hand.ftade bails ha- been about 5 cents a pound. *

DOWNFALL OF FATHER.

The Uplift Movement For the “Old Man” Is Having a Hard Time. The whole trouble was that it was too good to fast. From the Very moment that the movement for the uplift of father started it was certain that the pendulum would swing backward and very prvbaV.y hit him in the eye. Th mother movement was based on a firm f nindation arid will alway- go oil. but as soon as the exploiting ■of father started his complete downfall' was assured. Father has always been the “goat." It was always father who held the family from the achievement of its social ambitions. It was father who mane blunder- that put the family to -name Father never would take to the new-fashioned ideas. He was against the domination by the younger generation, against suf frage. against women's clubs, against the teaching of French iu the children : in a word a natural reactionary. It was but natural, therefore, that father should her c•-me generally known as a back number useful -only in bringing borne money and writing checks. Then started the father craze. It began with paragraphs in the newspapers. "Why not give the fathers a boost ?" and latei on it graduated in the -- >ng, “What's the Matter With Father?" the answer being "He’- all right!" From all sides father was receiving what he considered his well-earned praise. H was being lauded to the exclusion of mother, sifter, baby brother and the cook. 1 It was too good to last. It : simply turned father’s heaa. ! One of the species, W. D. Boyce, a millionaire publisher of Chicago. became so ecstatic that he announced that he was going to marry a beautiful young girl. : Legally he had a right to do so, las he was a widower. 'But the younger generation was growing | tired of this, father business Mr. I Boyce’s son heard about the proposed marriage of father and determined tp put a stop to it. He went home and trounced father. He was fined So in a magistrate’s yourt. Father married just the ’same, but the moral to others should be plain. Father is not to have everything his own way without a struggle from the younger generation. Father is riding for a fall.-+-Washington Post.

Stop That Cold ®o eteck early colds or Grippe with “ Proven tie*" mesas sure defeat for Pneumonia. To stop a cold with PreTentics is safer than to let It run and be obliged to core it afterwards. To be sure. Pro▼cates will core even a deeply seated cold, but taken early—at the sneeze stage —they break, or head off these early colds. That’s sorely better. That’s why they are called Preventics. Prerentics are little Gandy Cold Cures. No Quinine. no physic, nothing sickening. Nice for tbs children—and thoroughly safe too. If you feel chilly, if you sneeze, if you ache all over, think of Preventics. Promptness may also save half your nsual sickness. And don’t forget your child, if there is feverishness, night or day. Herein probably lies Preventics' greatest efficiency. Sold in ic boxes for the pocket, also in 25c boxes of 48 Preventics. Insist on your druggists giving joq Preventics A. F. LONG.
