Be sure to come out and vote j next Tuesday. Vote for William Hershman and Charles F. Stackhouse for county commissioners. Dr. M. B. Fyfe for countycoroner is from Wheatfield. He is “all right” and should be elected along with the rest of the ticket. Vote for Carey L. Carr for county treasurer. He is all right in every way and will make one of the best treasurer’s Jasper county ever had. Charles U. Garriott for county assessor is an old school teacher and is perhaps the ablest man ever named for this office in Jasper county. Vote for him. With Ammon Bealey in the County Auditor’s office the taxpayers may rest assured that everything pertaining to that office will be conducted as straight as a strong and as regular as clock work. Remember that William I. Hoover for county sheriff only lacked 62 votes of being elected two years ago, and he is a winner this time. Don’t let anything

■ -" / ■ ■ II a', t ■LLAt . . m FOR CONGRESSMAN. JOHN B. PETERSON This is the man that has lived a simple plain life. He began as a poor boy worked for his education and . worked his way upward in his profession. He always has given honest service to his employer from the day he began carrying a mason’s hod. Even his opponent gives him credit for unusual ability and mental capacity. He is a man who has accomplished much; he is still in his prime and with his splendid abilities and poise can accomplish much more in the future. In Washington he will represent this district as it has never been represented before. He will go there as an attorney for the whole 200,000 people, and fight with his whole soul for their right to live and prosper. A life time’s record has shown him to be true blue. He has never betrayed a man yet, and he will not betray this district in congress. Every consideration aside from mere machine politics demands his election. We appeal to every reader to vote with us next Tuesday. YOU NEED THIS HAN LET US JOIN HANDS FOR OUR COMMON GOOD.

keep you away from the polls this year. Your vote alone may elect some democrat and bring about the much-to-be-desired change in the management of county affairs. A vote for William Guthrie for Joint-Representative means a most able, honest and conscientious representative from Jasper and \\ hite counties in the next legislature. There never was a better county clerk timber named that Felix R. Erwin of Fair Oaks. Well educated and exceptionally well qualified in every way, Mr. Erwin will indeed make an ideal clerk. One of the Beveridge orators is telling his hearers that “this government inspection .costs the meat barons millions of dollars a year." He is mistaken. It costs the people millions of dollars a year—and then • some—to say nothing of the daily extortions of the meat trust.

Devere Yeoman for county surveyor means, if elected, that Jasper county will have a thoroughly qualified civil engineer in the surveyor’s office. A man qualified to draw bridge and other plans of public work and competent to pass upon them when completed as to whether the work has been done in accordance with the contract.

Some Republican either openly or secretly, are fighting the public accounting law—a law that in the first eighteen months of its operation has saved a million dollars to the .people Of. Indiana. Likewise all crooked dealers in public supples are fighting the public accounting law—a law that will put the crooked dealers out of business. Freddy Landis is traveling about the state with Beveridge and telling the latter’s audiences that this is not a political campaign but “a religious uprising.” Whenever he thinks it “good politics” Beveridge indorses the statement notwithstanding that it was through his efforts that the Mormon “Apostle” Smoot was kept in the United States senate in spite of his Endowment House oath and his polygamous antecedents. 1 - . , 1

rhe man who casts his ballot next Tuesday without remembering that the United States government is the only government on earth that permits a combination of men to control and fix the prices of the food supply of the country is unmindful of his duty. The man who does not vote to rebuke the party and the policies responsible for this condition will be estopped from complaining of subsequent extortions. - . 7 On the same day that Mr. Beveridge said, after repeated urging, that he had changed his mind about the ship subsidy graft and as at present advised against it, Charles B. Landis, standpatter and the chief spokesman for the subsidy Scheme, appeared upon the platform in Indiana in behalf of Beveridge. It looks as* if the arrangement is for Landis to hold the subsidies true to the senator while the latter attempts to fool the people.

After his having favored ship subsidy all his life and after voting for the graft when he had the chance. Senator Beveridge, ten days before the election, says that he is now against it because he finds that "public sentiment” is against" it. But public sentiment has always been against the graft. It was so when Beveridge voted for it. What assurance do the people have that he will rot again change his mind if he should go back to the senate? .

If the people of Indiana want the state’s business brought back to a sound and economical basis they must give Governor Marshall the support of a legislature that will enact the necessary laws and they must also give him the support of friendly officials in carrying such laws into effect, and this means that the Democratic state ticket should be elected. And while the people are doing all this they should be decisive about it. Three or four illegal votes two years ago thwarted the intention of the honest voters of the state. At the present election the vote should be so overwhelming as to make such a result impossible again. Mr. Beveridge not only proclaims himself the “paramount issue,” but he is carrying Freddy

Landis around with him to tell the people that Wall street is trying to buy Indiana away from him. In other words, Beveridge is declaring through Landis that Wall street is helping John W. Kern. This sort of campaign is both silly and infamous. Beveridge has always had the aid of Wall street money and not a dollar from that source < has ever come to Indiana to h£lp elect a single Democrat. With this un* truth in its mouth, Beveridge is asking Democrats to vote for Republican legislative candidates in order that he may go back to the senate and enjoy another six years of easy non-residence..

Hon. John B. Petersort invaded the home city of E. D. Crumpacker a few days ago and spoke to an immense crowd in the Memorial opera house at Valparaiso. Mr. Peterson was given a heaty reception by the assemblage and his speech elicited round after round of applause. It is evident that right at home Mr. Crum* packer has lost his prestige and some lifelong republicans who are familiar with conditions in Porter county express a doubt as to whether he will be able to carry his own county. If he does so it will be by a greatly reduced majority.

The Chicago Tribune conceeds that Congressman Crumpacker’s majority will be reduced to a point where his election is a grave matter of doubt. Other great daily newspapers which are keeping a finger on the political pulse of the -Tenth district are proclaiming that Crumpacker is beaten and that the hopes of the republican state committee are centered on other candidates. It is conceeded that Crumpacker’s standpat record has been brought home to the people in a manner that reveals his betrayal of the confidence which has been reposed in him in the years that are gone. He promises and promises but when it comes to voting he is always found allied with the class of special privilege.

CONSCIENTIOUS VOTERS. To conscientious republican and democratic voters who do not want to perpetuate the liquor traffic, I suggest that you get together and “pair” and vote the prohibition ticket. This would not effect the result between the old parties dnd would increase the prohibition vote, and the only thing that will put down and keep down the liquor traffic is a majority of prohibition votes, Yours for a pure, peaceable, sober conmmunity.— A. G. W. Farmer.
