Royal Baking Powder Absolutely Pure The Woman Makes the Home She makes it best who, looking after the culinary department, turns her back resolutely upon unhealthful, or even suspicious, food accessories. She is economical j she knows that true economy does not consist in the use of inferior meat, flour, or baking powder. She is an earnest advocate of home made, home baked food, and has proved the truth of the statements of the experts that the best cooking in the world today is done with Royal Baking Powder.

An 8-year-old daughter of John Walter of southeast of town fractured her right, collarbone in two places Wednesday while playing at school. President Taft has issued the annual Thanksgiving proclamation, designating Thursday, .November 28, as the day to give thanks. No doubt the president feels a little thankful himself that he carried even three states. Robert Yeoman is building a big corn crib and granary on the Gangloff farm east of town. It is 26x40, 18 foot posts and will hold over 5,000 bushels of corn and 3,000 bushels of oats. It will be equipped with an elevator. Erhadt Wuerthner of Newton tp., and Everett Halstead indulged in a little fistic encounter omi the sidewalk in front of the First National Bank Wednesday. The encounter grew out of some old trouble, and was not due to politics, as they are both republicans. They were separated before any serious damage was done on either side, both declaring that they would have it out some other time. Mrs. W. V. Porter returned Monday from her western trip, but her son Ross remained for a longer visit with Bruce Porter at Mt. Vernon, who had promised him some deer hunting.

Dr. and Mrs. Honan of Berlin, Germany, arrived in the city Wednesday evenirtg for a visit with his brother, E. P. Honan and family.

The triumph of the Democratic party at the polls is complete. It is neither local, limited or sectional, but is national to a degree beyond that of any party’s victory since 1852, when the Democratic candidate, Franklin Pierce, carried the country with sweeping success. Mr. Wilson has every reason to feel honored by this testimonial of the confidence of'his countrymen. His party has every reason to congratulate itself upon its return to political power through the support of the voters after such a prolonged period of probation. The country has accepted Mr. Wilson’s assurances as to sound and safe policies with implicit faith, and has given him the necessany legislative forces to place those policies into actual operation.

As an executive he will not be embarrassed by a hostile or antagonistic Senate or House, and the country has the assurance also that he is not incumbered with pledges of patronage or of official favors of any nature.

From the very day of his election he is arbiter of the success or failure of his administration to an extent far beyond that of many of his predecessors. He, above all others, assumes responsibility for the future of his country, the fortunes of his party and the place in history of himself.

JThat he shall make that future glorious ard prosperous is the wish of every American, regardless of party affiliations or partisan advantages and the well-known saying, “He serves his party best who serves his country best,” can be well amplified to make the honor personal through patriotic service. - ’

Yet, as Executive of the republic and the chosen and accepted leader of his party, Mr. Wilson enters into most arduous duties and assumes burdens that cannot be cast off, ignored nor slighted. While the republican party has followed the Federalist and the Whig parties to the political cemetery, there remains a numerous and strong opposition to Democracy in the National Progressive Party, and that opposition will not be slow to recruit itself from the disorganized, defeated and despondent forces that •have vainly endeavored to prevent the final overthrow of a once powerful political organization. The great central states of Penn'sylvanda, Michigan and Illinois exercise a political force that will ever remain a strong factor in national political results, and it will not be long until it will be found that opponents of the Democracy in Ver\mont, Utah, Idaho and Wyoming will be in full and active co-opera-tion with those who have held the 'larger states in opposition to Democracy in its day of greatest victory. A disrupted, effete and worn-out party will be succeeded by a new and vigorous one, ready to take ad-

EVERY MAN’S HOME

Every man’s home is the best old home, And every man’s wife the sweetest; Every man’s child is the best little child. The best behaved and the neatest; Every man’s baby is better than all The babies that never were b >rri— And just so it’s babies and wives and homes,Why, let ’em all blow their horn! Byery man’s wife makes the finest preserves. And every man’s wife bakes bread, That beats all the bread that ever was made From Hatteras to Stony Head. Every man’s home is the place to see The finest 5 housekeeping on earth— ■ And just so it’s bread and preserves and home, Let them teep on with their mirth! When every man thinks that his own home’s best, And his wife’s sweetest, why then of a heaven on.earth again, We’ll swing back unto the golden dream And isn’t it beautiful, fine and sweet That faith of a man In his child. And his wife and his home and his simple life That he boasts of undefiled! When every man’s home is the sweetest place On earth for a man to be; When every man’s wife is the sweetest wife Tn all the world to see; When every man’s child is the dearest child That ever drew breath—ah, then, We shall bat e some better children and women and homes. And a c’a-ned sight oett r men'

DEMOCRATIC MOOSERS BUNCOED

giving 125 votes against to 37 for, or almost 4 to 1 against the proposition. Newton county went 73 democratic on, the national ticket and the entire democratic ticket was elected by pluralities of 121 for Rich for treasurer to 4 for Barker for commissioner, except Hamilton, republican, was elected surveyor by 14 plurality. The moosers had about 10,000 more votes in Indiana than the republicans, which relegates the g. o. p. to third place ow the ballot in the next election and gives the moosers the places on election boards now held by republicans—judge, clerk and sheriff. White county cast 822 bull moose votes, but gave Wilson a plurality of 446 and Ralston a plurality of 4 06. The entire democratic county ticket was elected there. Tippecanoe county, normally republican by 1,500, gave Wilson a plurality of 1436, and elected two democrats to the legislature, the sheriff, surveyor and two commissioners. Shake, Bro. Isherwood. Roosevelt carried Lake county by 473, and Wilson ran 30 behind Taft. The democrats got the auditor only. Frank Maloy of Lowell, formerly of Rensselaer, bull moose candidate for sheriff, received 3,945 votes; Gill, democrat, 5,024; and Henry Whitaker, republican, formerly of Wheatfield, 5,962. The bull moose vote in county for president was 5,659. That the stately elephant is crowded to the third place by the bull moose and must occupy the column on the election ballot formerly held by the prohibitionists is a bitter pill to the stand-pat republicans, some of whom don’t like to be in third place on account of the dry tendencies of the former occupants of that position. The bull moosers have indeed humiliated the arrogant old republican party and sent it to an ignominous grave, where it has so often tried to send the now triumphant party of the people—<the democratic party.
