INDIANAPOLIS. Ind. April 23. -in the. la."! few days much of the attention of political loaders in this city lias been turned toward the negro voters, and !t has brought out an interesting situation. It is evident that the colored contingent In Ind!anapolis Is In a humor to demand more recognition politically than ever before, and loader? of both parties are looking on th'.s situation with an uncertain eye. The colored vote of Indianapolis rnifunts to something between S.i'OO nnd votes, and practically all of it ha teen republican and still is republican. Democrats have never been able t handle much of the negro vote In this city. The fact is that the negro vote in Indianapolis la large enough to .win:r elections and to hold the balance of power. Without the colored vote no party could hope to win. except under i xtra ordinary circumstances. B it it now develops that there Is a great exodus of negroes from Indianapolis sines the prohibition law took effect and the state became dry. They ere headed for Louisville. Cincinnati. Chicago. Cleveland and other cities whera the dry wave has not yet struck, f r.J they are goins !n such numbers ps to causa much speculation among politicians. Negroes who formerly worked as watiers and cooks in loons and cafes where liquor was sold. r where porters or other helpers are hunting for new fields, where there is sufficient "moisture" to keep them from drying up. In addition, a large part of th colored vote in this city lias been controlled and handled hrotisfh the influence of negro saloon keepers and pool room keepers. Since 'he saloons are closed up these headquarters have been wiped out and the KEEP LI1IEB ACTIVE MO BOWELS GLEAN WITffCSSIlETS" Best when bilious, sick, headachy, or for bad breath or sour stomach.

hold of the former bosses has been broken. Just what effect this development may have on political results remains to be seen. But the negroes, so It appears. areJust beginning to realize their own importance in polit.es and they are demanding nominations, offices and Jobs. Already tero is one negro member of the city counoil. One negro is a candidate for the nomination for coroner, and it looks as if he might win.. Two others are candidates for nominations for the Justice of the peace. There are negroes holding political jobs in the 'state hous. in the court house ami the city hall, and they are demanding move. The fa-, t is the negroes are about the only element in Indianapolis that is paying any attention to politics in the coming primaries for th nomination of county candidates. This fact has just dawned on the leaders of the parties and they have suddenly turned their attention to the colored districts .of the city. Lew Shank, the- clown, who was once mayor of Indianapolis. Is now a new candidate for the nomination for congress, and lie i3 appealing strongly to the negroes. There w as a time when .Shank was strong with the colored vote, but h lost out afterward and they paid no attention to him when he was a candidate for mayor last fall.

Now, h.iwever. for some reason they appear to ha e taken him up again, for he has been holding some big. enthusiastic meetings In colored districts. The uncertainty of the negro situation In this city has all of the political leaders guessing.

Farmers Buy Liberty Bonds By T. A. COLEMAN, State Leader Co. Agent.

! The bronze statue of Frederick the

Great at Washington. The bronze statue of Frederick the Great, the kaiger's grift to America

in 1904, has been interned aionjf with I the other enemy nlier.s for the dura- ! tion of the war. It stood at the eni trance of the U. S. war college until I the president passed a hint to the i ctin secretary of war. I .

IWORK WHILE YOU SLEE

That the Indiana farmers buy their proper proportion of Liberty bonds is evidenced by the way some purely agricultural sections go "over th top" in subscribing their quota. This fact reflects the great patriotism felt by the farming people. The farmer, in a'.! t-f the yfars past, has not been a bond bu;. er. in fact he has has used for all of the available working capital that h could command. The development of our country during the past fifty 'ars has taxd the farmers' resources to their limit. This is evidenced by the great number of farm riortgages and loans secured from local banks. Luring the last f ' -.v years, the prices for farm products have been such that it has been possible for a great many farmers to catch up with their Indebtedness and in many cases accumulate a little surplus cash, which can In most cases and should be used in the further development of the farm. However at this time, with the coun

try calling for the loan of every available dollar to prosecute the world-wide war, the farmer is confronted with a new phase of business relationships because at the same time, the call comes to him to greatly increase his agricultural production. Just as the country is utilizing its credit, so saotua the farmer make use of a r.cw power, that of collateral security, The man with SI 000 in the bank vrith which he -plans to buy livestock for feeding, can we!! afford to invest the $l'f0 in Liberty Bonds which can Te used as collateral to borrow another thousand with which to buy the livestock. In this way, for the small difference between the interest received on the Liberty Bonds and the interest paid at the local banlt, he will be dodclng a double duty and rendering a most patriotic service.

Soap should be used very carefully, if you want to keep your hair looking it best. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins it. The best thing for steady use is Ju( ordinary mulsifled cocoanut oil (which is pure and greaseless). and is better than the meet expensive soap or anything else you can use. One or two t- aspoonfuls will clean":' the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. lit makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, which rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt dandruff and excessive oil.
