I OCTOBER OR LOSE YOUR VOTE REASONS WHY REGISTRATION LAW IS NECESSARY TO PROTECT LEGAL VOTER AND GET HONEST RESULT. AIMED AT THE CITIES But Law to Ee Constitutional Had to Cover the Entire State What It Would Hevc Meant to Bryan. If the election were lield tomorrow there would be more than 300,000 citizens of Indiana outcasts from the! polls disfranchised unable to votr Unless, these 300,000 citizens with a right to vote if registered take tlu pains to register on October 7, th vote in Indiana will be lighter than ihas been in years, and it will l o 5' possible to evvu conjecture tvo re suit of the eiecticn in Novenivr.

Without a complete undartandln& of the ronsono that made the rogtnt ration law a necessity tho vlowu of these men who are mostly excellent and nubHtantlal eltliwjna would aeem concluhIvo. Theau men, and all tho votorn f the Htulo are entitled to know why tho law was considered a uocoaalty. Ab far back as ISSL an amendment to tho oonntltutlon wa proposed, making tt obligatory on the loglfilaturo ti pais a rvlttrntlou Irw. Amendmontu to th ennstUutlou cannot bo mado unless the people vol for It, Tht amendment wa aubmlltpd to the people at tho polla nucl It paaaed by th enormoiis majority of S?,000 a phenomenal majority for that time. This amendment did not gay that tho loglBlature could pass a registration law If It wished, hut said that tho leglaluturo sliouhl pnM mrh a law. At that time thoro wa nothing like tho noeeüü ty for a rodstratlon law n mw that wo todny.

meff who "were nöt'oTü'zens" Tri tö tne state, and before the Republicans began to practice the plan of importing thousands of non-residents from Kentucky for election day. Because the necessity was not so pronounced, nothing was done. But times have changed. Out in the farming sections where the most substantial part of our people reside, it is hard to understand why the registration law was passed. Here are some reasons: In campaign after campaign an interesting thing to be observed has been the great negro excursions from Louisville that have poured thousands from Kentucky into the city six weeks and a month before the election. , A poll taken sixty days before election was always light in certain Republican localities of the city of In-

dianapolis compared with the poiif taken thirty days before. This iricrease represented the imported, il legal voter who had heen brought in to kill the vote of a thoroughly quali fied Democrat out in the country. At! times this vote has been large enough to turn the tide. The registration law puts an end to this crime against the legal voter. In every campaign for years the counties along the Ohio river have seen hundreds of imported ' negroes from across the river brought .oyer to take temporary jobs on farms and inj cities. These men voted, killed the vote of a citizen of Indiana, then returned to Kentucky. This law prevents this crime against civic decency. In Terre Haute a short time ago a large number of Italians working on a railroad, living in box cars, having no place of residence and no right to vote men who were here today and there tomorrow were taken into Terre Haute at four o'clock on the- afternoon of election day, their naturalization papers were taken out, and they voted over the protest of citizens whose votes were killed by- the disgraceful proceedings. This law will end this sort of thing. In the northern part of the state whore the steel trust has established plants, the most shameful travesty marked a recent election. The votes of farmers in Jtoono county, Clay county, in ovory agricultural county of tho state counted for nothing, for they wcro killed by tho illegal votes of pooplo who wore not citizens.

Tho oonntltutlon ot tho atato dcjolarod that auch a law Hhould bo paaood, and It wau onaotod. Tho point, Ih uomotlmoH mado by HUbnlantlal oltl'ona of oltlon and country that tho law waa not needed In tho farming oountloa and that It Hhould not havo been oxtondod to thooo oountloB. It Is true It was not needed thoro, but In a state election It wan ImpQQBlblo, under tho law, to pans a law applying only to certain communities. It had to bo gonornl to atand the tost of tho courtfi. And it was thought that all good cltlzona would be willing to stand the Hllßht Inconvontönce of registration In May or September or October to make sure that tholr votoa wore not loit on olootlon clay by hpiny killed by some llleiml and lmportad voter.

croofc. However -that majberthe law is on the books and must oe obeyed if we ' i " are to vote. Every name not registered after .'the October registration, is blotted from the list of citizens. , Remember this: The International Harvester trust will be .greatly pleased if thousand of Irttliftna farmers fail to qualify, to oto on election day. The

farmer wihä) fails to register plays into J tue hands of this vicious monopoly. And remorabcr this: If you registered in Ma? antl have moved into another precinct since, and did not register at the September registration, you must register in "October, and if you registered- in September and have s'ace removed-to another precinct, you must register in October. The mere fact that you have removed from one place in a precinct to anotlier hich-is in the same precinct, does hot make it necessary for you to register again. And remember this REGISTER OR YOU CAN'T VO"PE IN NOVEMbr. poi irj Hawaii. This Peculiar-Food Is to, the Native a ; . ' Broad is to Üs. Whatweacl is to the American 01 European poi is to "the native Hawaiian. No meal is complete witn"out it, and for tiie great majority of the natives it forms the principal article of diet. While they probably could at the present time live without this accustomed dish, tho time once was, before the advent of the whites to the islands and the in'troductionof hew foods, that life without ft would at least have been precarious. .

HAVE REASON TO BE PROUD

Achievements of the American People Afford View of Unbroken Line of Progress. During the past 25 years 100,000 miles of railroads have been built, requiring an expenditure of not -less than $200,000,000 for labor and material. We- are both producers and consumers. While our population is only a little over five per cent, of the population of the world, we produce 20 per cent, of the wheat, 40 per cent, of the iron and steel, 55 per cent, of the copper, TO per cent, of the cotton and 80 per cent, of the corn of the world. Furthermore, with inconceivable rapidity, machinery has' taken the place of human toil, and incidentally millions of slaves have been set free. The same triumphant progress has unvaryingly characterized every phase of human endeavor on the American continent. Civil and religious liberty is a natural condition as well as an attitude of mind. The story of agriculture, of -manufacturing, of mining, of the arts and sciences, demonstrates the unbroken progress ,and uplift of the whole people. Finally, the health and well-being of the toiling masses have become, with constantly increasing earnestness of endeavor, the individual and collective purpose of the? nation. And above all, the" democratic idea, through good and evil report, has encouraged the personal work and character' of the individual citizen. It has always believed that competition which encourages skill should remain paramount. It has always gloried in this personal competitive type as tho ideal and preserver of democratic traditions.

Nothing Can Undermine It in Jasper. , People are sometimes slow to recognize true merit, and they cannot be blamed, for so manyhave been humbugged in the past- The experience of hundreds of Jasper residents, expressed publicly through newspapers and other sources places Doan's Kidney Pills on a" firm foundation here. Alois F. Pfeffer Mill St., Jasper, Ind , says: "Doan's Kidney Pills worked. wonders in my case and I am grateful for the relief they brought. I was in poor health and my back ached most of the time. At night I could not lie in one position for any length of time and sharp twinges darted through me when I attempted to stoop. The secretions from my kidneys caused me no end of annoyance. I often had headaches and dizzy spells and a tired, languid feeling clung to me. Nothing I took seemed to benefit me. The sup erior worth or Doan s Kidnev Pills was proven whsn they cur ed me. Two boxes restored me to good health." For sale by all dealers. Price HO cents. Foster Milburn Co.,J3uffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States. Remember the name Doan's and take no other.
