NOT AFTER IT Congressman Overstreet Cannot Be Drawn Into Senatorial Race. Indianapolis, Aug. 8. Some of the Joyal friends of Congressman Jesse Overstreet of this district suggested today that he would make a good candidate for the United States senate to succeed Senator Fairbanks, and they Bald that they will try to draw him Into the race. Mr; Overstreet would not be s silent factor If he could enter the lists with the support of his own county, which will control eleven members, that Is, of course, if the Republicans win. Mr. Overstreet, however, has no idea of becoming a candidate for the senate, although as a matter of course he is not without full and deep appreciation of the honor. He is just now a candidate for re-election to congress. Although he was not a resident of this district when frst elected, and owing to his duties as secretary of the congressional campaign committee, he has always been handicapped in making his canvass, he has generally landed ahead of the ticket. The same forces that have been at work for him are at it again, confident I of pulling him mrough by a big maiority. It is evident, however, that the Democrats are going to put up a stiff, fight against him, and if their county ticket wins they are confident of taking him down. Crawford Fairbanks of Terre Haute, proprietor of the largest brewery in the state, informed your correspondent today that the brewers are making no attempt to secure the nomination of men for the legislature who will vote for a repeal or at least a partial repeal of the Nicholson law. .The air has been filled with rumors for some time to the effect' that the brewers .have amassed an immense fund to be used in influencing the legislators in anoth er attempt to repeal the blanket remonstrance clause, but Mr, Fairbanks saya that there Is nothing to such reports. It does not seem likely front what he said that the brewers will make any attempt to repeal the Nicholson law. Rather it will be their plan to stand pat on what they now have. It is expected, however, that the Prohiswill make some attempt to secure a revision, as their leaders are stating that it ought to be changed so the applicant for retail license should be required to file a petition signed by a majority ( of the voters and that one license in a ward or township should stand for j two years against all applicants. In other words, they are after a local option law. From what can be learned from the leaders of the two old parties they will stand against tampering with the temperance laws either by the brewers or the temperance people, so it may be predicted with some assurance that there will be no new temperance legislation at the coming session. It will be surprising if there is not a bitter fight between the Democratic leaders if they should carry the legislature. There are a number of very aspiring gentlemen who feel that their services since the party has been out of power entitles them to a seat in the United States senate, and they will make a determined demand if there Is a Democratic legislature. The report today that Major Menzies of Mt Vernon has decided to become a candidate for the senate is not surprising, as he has been a diligent worker in the party for many years and has never been rewarded. There is some soreness among his First district friends because he was not given the nomination for governor, and it is said they will go after a place in the senate hot and heavy if there is a chance. It is also expected that Kern and Shlvely as well as several others will have their lightning rods up, so it will be interesting to" see where it will strike. The Democrats have some young blood at the head of their organization here this time. ThehaJirman, Charles B. Clarke, and Se,cr.etajycCarje Pej;-J tljohn are both ypiiogjn years, but of j considerable political experience.' Clarke is said to have a natural ability for organizing, while Pettijohn learned a lot about the game from W. W. Spencer and other old-time Democratic leaders. Clarke and, Pettijohn have been working on the plan of thelr organization for a long : time,:.. andj Clarke says they will be ready to enter the campaign in fine shape. They are probably further ahead than the Republicans here; as there hjs beenjftpj

Representative Cowherd of the Democratic campaign-committee has issued a statement in refutation.pf recently publish ed tables prepareVi by Carrol D. Wright of the bureau of labor, relative to the increase in wages and the cost of living. Mr. , Cowherd's conclusions are followed out at ..considerable length and in conclusion he says: "We shall appeal irom Colonel Wright and his expert statisticians to one who figures more skillfully than he the housewife with the market basket, who must make her husbana s scanty wage cover the constantly increasing cost of the family's daily needs."

ABOUT THE PROSPECTS CROPS IN COUNTY OF RAIN BADLY NEEDED With Plenty of Moisture Corn Will Again be King Wheat Very Short. The sole topic with farmers in this as well as other counties is the crops. This is only natural as at this time of year everything depends on the weather. It has now been several weeks since there has been any rain to speak of and practically none since corn has "eared." Splendid weather was enjoyed during "harvest" just the kind wanted to gather the golden grain and save the hay. For this the farmers were thankful. Wheat fell short in every field cut, while there is a magnificent crop of oats. With a big yield the price -of this staple feed ought to drop in price. But the cron is receiving every attention now. There was abundance of rain at planting and during the first month or so of Its growth," but since the corn has "eared" the precious fluid has been decidedly scarce. The Palladium talked to a number of farmers today and the one great hope of all of them is that a copious shower of rain will soon fall. Considerable turnip seed was sown the latter part of July and this also needs rain. It looked last evening as if mother earth wiuld be drenched, btu the clouds passed over and only coolness came in stead of that much desired quantity. HAGERS TOW GIRL BY WRITING- HER NAME ACROSS ANEW $5 BILL NEW YORK OFFICIAL Noticed the Same and Wrote Wayne County Girl Demand Tor New Bills. to Hagerstown, Indiana, Wayne County, has had a number of occurrences of late to make it famous, and a recent occurrence brings one of its girls into correspondence with a New York bank official. The dispatch in reference to the affair is as follows : Hagerstown, Ind., Aug. 8. Several months ago Miss Rena Replogle, residing near this city, came into possession of a new $5 bill. The thought crossed her mind to write her name and address on the back of the money and see what came of it. She did so and for a long time nothing occurred to indicate that her act had created any stir in the business world. Finally, after the circumstance had been almost forgotten, the young woman received a letter from an official in a New York bank. It expressed the pleasure of the writer in the opportunity presented of making the acquaintance of the woman whose address was written on the bill. Miss Replogle replied and a very agreeable correspondence has continued. The occurrence has caused an unusual demand for new bills at the local bank. I Interesting Paper From Dawson ReT ceived.
