cases in famines in the county.

' Auditor Bowman will ascertain the cost to Wayne county of caring for tuberculosis cases in state institutions

DEMOCRAT LEADERS CONFER ON OUTLOOK

George Bittler, Democratic candidate for state treasurer, Dale Crittenberger, candidate for state auditor, Homer L. Cook, candidate for secretary of state, and Walter Chambers, Democratic district chairman, when they arrive in Richmond late this afternoon will confer with Democratic party leaders as to political conditions In this county. From a Democratic standpoint conditions in Wayne are far from satisfactory. There is considerable dissatisfaction against Taggart machine methods and Mr. Cook will undoubtedly informed that his candidacy is farJfrom being popular with many Democrats. He will also be informed that his most bitter opponent in the last legislature, Earl Crawford, who a few months ago deserted the Democratic party and went over to the Progressives, has taken to the warpath after his scalp in Wayne, Fayette and Union counties and is creating all kinds of havoc. The candidacy of Finly II. Gray for re-election as congressman, has also suffered a severe relapse during the last few weeks and it is known that Democratic leaders have been bombarding him with advice to get into Wayne county and get busy ass soon as possible. There is nothing that Mr. Gray would rather do but unfortunately for him President vilson is requiring every congressman to stay on his job at Washington until congressional business is finished. ' It was learned today through a press dispatch from Washington that a prominent Democratic state officer in a letter to Senator Shivoly urging him to return to this state mentioned the candidacies of Representatives Gray, Korbly, Barnhart, Morrison, Peterson and Culiop as being jeopardy.

Ada Patterson. Sees Warning for Girls in "Vice Trust" Film

From Greatest Woman Journalist in America ' An Article Written in Sunday New York American

BY ADA PATTER80N. The only fault I could find with It when I watOhed the marvel of the moving picture drama, "Smashing the Vice Truat," yesterday at Weber's theatre was that its ' title is not half

happen to more. " You need to know that there is a vice trust, and that as soon as on is "smashed" another Is secretly born. You need to know that a girl unarmor-

wires underground. A resolution was adopted by the board of public works today to the effect that continued delay on the part of the Terre Haute, Indianapolis & Eastern Traction company in beginning work on the extension of the South Eighth street car line into Beallview will be regarded by the board as breach of faith on the part of the Traction company. Several days ago City Clerk Bescher at the request of the city council, wrote to Superintendent Jeffries of the Traction company asking the reason for the delay in extending the car line, but no reply has been received. Today the board ordered the clerk to write another letter, couched in more vigorous terms and announcing that if the company did not make a prompt statement on this matter the board would accept its silence as an intention on the part of the company to break Its promise to provide the improvement this year. Breaks Its Promise. Last spring when the city consented to have the Main street hill paved on

Reason for Owning

Your Fall Clothes Early You often hear men spoken of as progressive or "behind the' times." Do you realize that as often as -not, those opinions are brought about by their clothes?

Fall stocks are ready here now. Will you accept our invitation to

see them? The price you pay is really of no importance There's only one thing we specialize on here and that's value. You pay any price you care to and we'll do our share at any price you elect. We're conscientious in our merchandising here we operate on a basis of what we can give, rather than on what we can get. You'll find some mighty attractive suits here now checks, plaids, overplaids, stripes, mixtures and plain colors in your size and the style you like best. And you'll find fall overcoats that will raise this store's already great value-giving fame immeasurably, $10 to $25.
