PROWS OPEII THEIR

NATIONAL CAMPAIGN

Engene Chafin Speaks of the Work Outltined for His Party. A POLITICAL QUESTION. SPEAKER BELIEVES PEOPLE BELIEVING IN ABOLISHMENT OF 8AL00NS SHOULD VOTE FOR PROHIBITION CANDIDATES. Chicago, July 22. The prohibition national campaign was formally opened tonight by addresses delivered by prominent leaders of that party at a large mass meeting held in Evanston, 111. The principal speech was made by Eugene W. Chafin, the presidential nominee. Other speakers were Charles R. Jones, chairman of the prohibition national committee; A. G. Wolfenbarger, national vice chairman, and others. Mr. Chafin said among other things: The prohibition party ran its first candidate for president in 1872, when a majority of the voters in but one state Maine favored the principles of prohibition. Today there is hardly a state in the union in which a majority of the voters do not believe in principles of the entire prohibition of the manufacture and sale of liquor. The principle work of the campaign must be to educate the voters to the giving of their votes to a political party pledged to carry out this reform. The question of prohibition is distinctly political, and in order to carry out that policy and to enforce the law the efforts of all officers are required. These officers are elected through political parties, and prohibition therefore becomes emphatically a political party question. Many temperance people urge that we should keep this matter out of politics. These same people are voting the republican and democratic tickets with a personal liberty plank in the platform, by which directly or by affirmation a declaration is made in favor of the saloon. Their idea seems to be that if a political party declares In favor of the liquor traffic that makes it nonpartisan, but if a political party declares against the liquor traffic that means taking it into politics. IF YOU HAVEN'T TRIED THE GREAT ROOT JUICE Ask Your Friends Who Have. . Root Juice has made so many wonderful cures all over the state and has done so much good here in Richmond that any sensible person after investigating will be convinced of its great merits. If you suffer wlt!i your stomach, liver, kidneys or nerves or any trouble created by a weakened or diseased condition of these organs, Root Juice is the very remedy you need. It absolutely removes the cause of bloating, belching, constipation, heart-burn, sick headache, backache and rheumatism. They will tell you all about it at A. G. Luken's drug store.

WAYNE IS NOT AMONG THE TEN LARGEST CLOVER GROWING COUNTIES, HOWEVER, STATE STATISTICAL REPORT SH0W8. Indianapolis, Ind., July 22. That the farmers of Indiana are preparing to feed much more stock during the coming winter than they fed last winter is indicated by the tremendous increase in the acrage sown in clover this season, as shown by the reports from which compilations of figures have been made by the state bureau of statistics. The acreage has been more than doubled this year, a total of 1,157,915 acres now growing clover, as against 555,890 acres last year. The indications are that Indiana will likely have a record breaking clover crop. The crop, it is expected will be about as heavy to the acre as It was last year. The average yield per acre last year was 1.18 tons and the total crop for the state was 658,874 tons. The clover seed thrashed out last year totaled 206,001 bushels. The ten counties highest in point of clover acreage this year are: Clinton, 29,338 acres; Allen, 28,242; Boone, 27,549; Marshal. 25,872; Jay, 25,547; Randolph, 25,473; Lagrange, 25,319; Rush, 24.049; Montgomery, 23,870; Miami, 25,527; The highest counties in 1907 were: Lagrange, 20,502; Johnson, 15,906; Posey, 15,425; Steuben, 14,837; Bartholomew, 14,828; Dekalb, 14.292; Noble, 13,981; Shelby, 13,451; Elkhart, 13,429; Allen, 12,941. There has also been an increase in the acreage sowed in timothy, though it is not as large as that sowed in clover. The total acreage for the state in timothy this year is 1,345,582 acres, while that of last year was 1,315,183. The total crop last year was 1,858,843 tons and the average yield per acre was 1.41 tons. The ten highest counties in point of acrage this year are: Allen, 42688 acres, Switzerland, 38,006; Lake, 36,7O0; Greene, 28,664; Ripley, 28,131; Porter, 27,758; Dearborn, 26,673; Clay, 23,369; Washington, 23,121; Adams, 20,457.

TINE IS THE TEST The Testimony of Richmond People Stands the Test. The test of time is what tells the tale. The public soon finds out when misrepresentations are made, and mer it alone will stand the test of time. Richmond people appreciate merit, and many months ago local citizens publicly endorsed Doan's Kidney Pills; they do so still. Would a citizen make the statement which follows unless convinced that the article was just as represented? A cure that lasts is the kind that every sufferer from kidney ills is looking for. Mrs. Edgar S. Mote, of 17 North Sixteenth street, Richmond, Ind., says: "Some years ago my husband was having some trouble with his back. There was a dull aching pain that bothered him most of the time. He was told about Doan's Kidney Pills and got a supply at A. G.- Luken & Co's drug store. After taking It he never again mentioned backache to me. He believed that Doan's Kidney Pills are a great remedy and has told several people of the benefit he got through using them."

Insomnia is the not uncommon fate of the brain "worker who after years of continuous mental strain retires from active life. The reason is that mental activity demands a large supply of blood for the brain, and the blood ves sels gradually accommodate themselves to this large supply. But when the hard work is over the brain does not always realize that it needs less nour ishment, and hence the condition of excessive mental activity -which Is what Insomnia is. fcondon MaiL Suspicious.

COUNT IS ARRESTEDlClTY COURT DOCKET

Forgot to Pay Hotel fore Starting Paris. Bill for ARRAIGNED BUT RELEASED Montclair, N. J., July 22. Count Jose L'De Guzarti Pereira Mourao, a high flying Portuguese nobleman, who arrived in this country three months ago and since then is said to have fallen love with a beautiful American girl and spent $100,000 for fine living and entertainments, came to grief here when he was about to depart for Paris. He hadn't paid a bill for ?57 which he owed at the Hotel Montclair and was arrested as he was partaking of his breakfast at the Monomonock Inn at Caldwell. The young count who is only 29, politely asked the chief to wait a moment until he had finished his repast Then when informed that he was under arrest on the charge of attempting to defraud the Hotel Montclair he requested the police chief to accompany him to Birkendene, the home of Chas. Russel Leaycraft, where he had been welcome guest during his stay at Montclair and Caldwell. Mr. Leaycraft was surprised to see his noble acquaintance in the custody of the policeman and listened inter estedly while Count Mourao explained his dilemma. Then Mr. Leaycraft offered to advance the money necessary to pay the bill at the hotel. Arraigned in Police Court, The chief brough his prisoner to the Montclair police station, where he was arraigned before Recorder Yost. He admitted owing the bill, and then pulled out a wallet containing about $100 with which he offered to settle. The man had been a well paying guest at the Motel Montclair, and beyond his delinquency in final payment he was well thought of by Manager Wilcox, who appeared for the hotel company, accepted the settlement and the charge was withdrawn.

You have beard, no doubt, of the feat The traveler and his dog were lost and hungry on the plains. Night felL It looked as though both must go supperless to bed.

IS ALL CLEARED UP Not a Penny Owed City in the Shape of Fines. For the first time in the memory of local police court officials, all the docket fees have been paid up and at present not a penny is owing the city from fines or other sources. The condition is regarded as unusual in a city of this size. Upon a fine being assessed in city court, the prisoner is allowed ninety days, if he obtains a property owner to appear as security. This opportunity is taken advantage of frequently. It has been the case always heretofore for 6ome of these fines to be outstanding but when the books were audited today everything was found to be paid. WATERLOO. The Immutability of the Famous Old Battlefield. One of the most striking features of a visit to the battlefield of Waterloo today Is the immutability of the entire scene in which one of the greatest bat tles of history took place. Notwlth standing the many years that have passed since the memorable, day of June 18, 1815, the entire scene of the battle remains practically unchanged and untouched, and the very buildings around which the tide of battle surged the fiercest, save for the necessary restorations of the damage they sustained in the conflict, remain exactly as they were, nor has any encroachment of building or progress marred the historic field. The battlefield of Waterloo is an open, undulating stretch of good farming land. On the day of the battle the greater part of it was covered with crops of rye, wheat barley and oats, and the same crops are still grown there each season. The field is intersected by two highroads branching at Mont St. Jean, the one on the right leading to Nivelles, while that on the left which lay in the center of both armies, led south to Genappe, Charleroi and Kamur. Upon the crest of the ridge which formed the first of the allied positions a crossroad runs east and west. This road, on approaching the spot where the "Lion of Waterloo" now stands, ran through a cut in the crest some twelve to fourteen feet deep, and It was this point that was known after the battle as the Hollow Road. Some 500 yards to the southeast of the "Lion" is the farm of La Haye Sainte, while about 000 yards to the southwest stands Hougoumont, the old chateau, farmhouse, outbuildings, walled garden and orchard, which played such an Important part in the fate of the day. These buildings are nearly 300 years old and were built with a view to their defense, as many old stone loopholes still to be found testify. Eobert Howard Russell In Metropolitan Magazine. PREPARE PLATFORM Independence Party Will Deal With State Issues Principally. STATE CONVENTION AUG. 25 Indianapolis, Ind., July 22. Charles F. S. Neal, of Lebanon, 6tate chairman of the Independence party, yesterday came over to look after the work that is busily going forwerd at state headquarters in the English hotel. Dozens of persons who had read Mr. Neal's statement announcing that the Independence party will nominate Charles G. Conn, of Elkhart, for governor called up by telephone to express their interest in the proposition. Mr. Neal stated that an effort is now being made to pick a good republican to run for lieutenant governor on the ticket with Conn, who is a democrat. The platform to be adopted by the independence party at its state convention, here Augurt 25 also received Mr. Neal announced will deal forcibly with state issues. Mr. Hearst expects to win public favor in Indiana by coming out very strongly in favor of areIdu&Uon ol Uie burden of local WTira-

3C ment. Mr. Neal said: The platform holds that the salaries of local officials aro entirely too high and that compensation could be cut in two all along the line without jeopardizing the service and at the same time litting a heavy load from the taxpayers. We shall call the attention of the people to tho fact that taxes are too high. We know of an instance where a widow was left $10,000 life Insurance by her husband. This money, representing her sole worldly possessions, was lent by her at 5 per cent interest, making an annual income of $500. The taxes in that Indiana town are $2.75 per hundred, and this woman has to pay every year $275 in taxes, leaving her a net annual income of only $225. This is only one case of many which show that tho people of 5? &(SDdHS
