The Congressional Race. (F3M R DAILEY'S NATIONAL DEMOCRAT, OF AUG. 27,1909 OF JEFFERSONVILLE, INDIANA) The next Congressional race in the Third Indirna tfctiict is ah eady attracting no little attention although the nrmination of a candidate is nearly a ear away and the election will not be held till November 1910. The interest is confined, as usual, to the I'unocratic nominations since it is a foregone conclusion that the Democrats will elect the man they nominate. That the next Congressman from the district will In Gei rge H. Voight, for so many years one of the ree prized leaders of Jeffersonvilfe, Clark county and Third district Democracy, and one of the ablest of them all, is the growing conviction of many observers. That Clark county will be almost unanimously for him is fully assured and in this statement there is no disparagement of Congressman W. E. CV x who has an ambition to serve a third term at ashington. Four years ago a moderate proportion of the Clark county vote was cast for Mr. Cox. His oppmment at that time was not a Clark county man but even so, inneutral territory, Mr. Cox was a long way from carrying the county at the primaries. This time it may safely be predicted that the Clark c unty vote will be practically solid for Mr. Voight since he will be in the position of a "favorite son," Not only so but Mr. Voight has been assured of the energetic support of the men who four years ago were Mr. Cox's warmest supporters and in a review of those who are regarded as the party workers of Clark connty, including all the recognized leaders and wheelhorses, there will be no breaTc in the solid

phalanx which will fall in line to insist upon sending a Clark county man to Washington. The fight will come in some of the other counties, perhaps chiefly in Floyd, Washington, Orange and Perry counties, and the outcome is still on the knees of the gods, but Clark county Democrats are certain their man has excellent chance of winning. There can be no doubt that many of Mr. Cox's supporters four years ago, in the historic fight with Judge Zenor, will be lukewarm or antajonistic this year because the very argument that put them on his side at that time will range them against him now, and they will feel free to rally to the support of their candidate. Perhaps the most potent weapon in Mr. Cox's arnK.ry in 1906 was the argument that Judge Zenor had .served too long and that he was getting a strangle hold on the office. Neither was the argument made that he ought to quit because he had served three or four terms but it was argued that neither he nor any other man ought to serve more than two terms, hut that after receiving the second nomination without a fight it was time for the incumbent to permit the office to be "passed around."

undoubtedly being made very generally by Democrats who are in no sense and never have been his opponents politically. The News has never asserted that no man should serve more than two terms and would not subscribe w the doctrine, for their may be men of such outstanding ability that once sent to Congress it might e right to keep them there indefinitely. A man of average ability, however, who can be easily matched l' e.vry county of the nine which compose the ConRiesMonai district, will never be permitted to secure a lltH tentlJ'A nf Vio nflRno nrl ?f ic rkf ; f Via Ifloof lilrnhr

The roadways were oiled last summer, and before the next fair will have another heavy coating of crude petroleum. Turnstiles have been placed at the gates that visitors can be better taken care of and that gatemen may perform their work with less difficulty than in other years. The fair management In working out Its Improvement Ideas from year to year keeps In mind especially the visitors from away frcm Indianapolis.

This has led to the placing of many drinking fountains about the grounds, the building of a grandstand and open Beats along the. racetrack with a total capacity of 18.000 people. It led to the erection nf fhi rntlcnurn whur.

of settees are scattered under the shade trees about the grounds, and visitors are always free to bring their

baskets from home and spread lunch on the grassy plots. No gambling on the races la allowed at the Indiana Fair. No Intoxicating liquors are permitted. No games of chance to fleece the unwary are in operation. No immoral shows are conducted. The grounds arc policed by forty men. It Is always the purpose of the fair management to make the exposition clean, wholesome and safe for women and chil

dren, and the result has been that about two women to one man come to

The fair's flcwor show Is on a new basis this year, being in the charge of the Indiana Florists' Association. Classes have been provided for both professional and amateur growers, and farm and town women who have beds of asters, begonias, geraniums, dahlias, snapdragons and other flowers about their doors can compete.
