ANALYSIS GIVES INSIDE 1V0 RKIiJGS OF OUR POLITICS
v Robert O. Tucker, Indianapolis correepoadent of tae Cincinnati Enquirer, and" on of the best Informed political writer la Indian, declares In an article appearing In Sunday's Issue of the Enquirer, that If the Republican party in ; the. Sixth district "comes back," the former Progressives are going to ' have a wnoie lot to say about , the work of .reorganisation. Speaking of the two candidates for the O. O. P. nomination as representatives In congress, P. J. Lynch of New Castle, and Judge D. W. Comstock of Richmond, Tucker declares that If the former is nominated he - is going to have a "hard time in the general election." : v;',: ; V , r--. : ,. -Tucker Gives Analysis. Tucker analyses the Sixth district situation as follows: "The return of the Progressives to the Republican party is not an unalloyed pleasure. - Several months ago Progressives like Horace Stllwell of Anderson, who flopped back to the Republican ranks, stated that they would use the Republican party as a means of continuing the fight for the principles advocated by the new party in: 1912 and 1914. "Whenever a big Progressive came back home, the Republican papers warmed up to their best work in fram- ; ing up the words of welcome. But already it is evident that some of the ; returning brethren are determined to have more voice in Republican affairs than the old guard desires. In several communities the former are showing a disposition to step in and take firm hold of the reins. ' Fight Pat Lynch. ' "This is particularly true of the Sixth district. Recently a movement was inaugurated to merge the Progressive and Republican organizations at Richmond, The former was the stronger in the last two campaigns. It is now developing that the Progressives in Richmond are going to make a fight to prevent the renomination of Patrick J. Lynch of New Castle for congress by the Republicans. "An ugly situation confronts Lynch and his friends, including Wat6on. The opposition to Watson in Richmond and Wayne county has become a feud. It is being organized to do whatever it can to defeat him for the senate. In Wayne county Lynch, who is the Republican chairman ot the Sixth, is regarded as one of Watson's lieutenants, which is cne of the causes of the strong opposition to him. "Arrangements are being made for a big love feast in the Sixth to be held at Richmond. The Progressive paper at Richmond eaya that it has been settled tbat Lynch shall not preside over ths love feast, which shows the degree t qf opposition toward him, as it is cusTrtftlfTdf the OTgtrjcr Chairman to be chairman of 'the' meetings.' - ' "I.J'nch wants to make the race for ongresaaext.year.taLhas not counted on" Being opposed seriously,; but f he indications are that he will be fought in the primaries,, and if nominated that he will have a hard time in the general election. Judge Comstock of Richmond. is mentioned as a probable candidate for the Republican nomination, and it is likely that he will have the support of his own county." GOODRICH BOASTS HARVEST PROWESS John G. Goodrlcb,826 North Eighth street, aged - seventy, admits that he is about the niftiest farm hand in Wayne county, despite his ripe years. Incidentally Mr. Goodrich is willing to back up his claims to supremacy in the harvest field with coin of the realm. Mr. Goodrich does not appear to be more than forty-five years of age. He is Bhort and powerfully built and is still able to work six full - days a week at any arduous farm toil. Recently, Mr. Goodrich asserts, wihle working at the Miller farm near Eastern Insane hospital he cut forty-four shocks in one day. Two other laborers, each less than thirty years of age, cut thirty and twentyeight shocks, respectively. At another farm Mr. Goodrich in two hours' time pitched four loads of wheat. His closest competitor, a ' young man, pitched three wagon loads in the same time. John Goodrich Is a first cousin of James P. Goodrich of Winchester, one of the candidates for the Republican gubernatorial nomination. CONTROL VEGETABLE SALE. BERLIN. Oct. 11. The German Federal Council has decided to monopolize the sale of peas, beans and lentils. AH farmers and dealers have been requested to report at once what quantities of those vegetables they have on hand and to turn over to the Central Purchase Society, a government institution. The sale of sugar has now been placed entirely under government control.

WILLIAM BAYARD HALE CLAIMS U. S. DOLLARS HELP "BROKEN" RUSSIA
William Bayard Hale, writing .for the Chicago Examiner, asserts that Russia will be the benefactor in the big war loan of $50(7.000,000. The first installment of his ; article follows: . To the Editor of the Examiner: Sir In the credit of $500,000,000 to the Anglo-French allies, in . which : Americans are investing, three salient facts are conspicuous. The first; is that, though it may be true that' Russia has been formally left out of the transaction, Russia is still the main factor in this financial undertaking. A chain is no stronger than its weakest link. Russia owes France $4,000,000,000, and owes England, as Wall street bankers estimate it, about one-half that sum. In the last year Russia has defaulted its interest,, on French and English loans, and France and England have had to make good about $300,000,000 on behalf of Russia to their own subjects, from whose incomes they derive their revenue. The Morgan interests, in their publicity statement of September 28, said (New York Times, page 1, column 3): "One year's income on Great Britain's foreign investments alone would suffice to pay off the entire amount of the credit which is now proposed here. And French .national income and foreign investments are also very great." The dangerous falsity of this argument at once becomes apparent when one examines the responsibility of England's and France's chief foreign debtor. The second salient fact is the Morgan argument that the credit has back of it as security the entire taxing power of France and England. Heretofore the entire taxing power of Great Britain has been the security of the premier bond of the British Empireconsols. But nobody in England will buy consols, because the British government will not permit them to be sold at less than $65, a "minimum" price. If that minimum were removed consols might drop to 40 or less. If this has happened to consols what will happen to the fiveyear notes of the allies with the American people's savings in them? The third salient fact Is that at the end of more than a ': year of war a moratorium still exists in France and that the price quotations of her securities are still unreal. In other words, neither England nor France dares permit a free market in their leading government securities, but yet these two governments offer to the American public " shortterm notes quoted at the high figure of 98. The New York Sun, August 26, 1914. says - that a. recent table of ' rnt1rT'ql
debts shows that the per capita basis for the United States is $10.77 and that of the great natipns now at war the figures for the German empire were $17.81, for Russia $27.02, for Great Britain $76.35 and for France $160.24. The obligations of Prance are specially tragic, and it is, impossible to refrain from wondering at the fatuity of American bankers who would advise their countrymen to invest their
savings in the unsecured notes of ai country so burdened. With a per capita national debt before the war of $106.24 and a national debt at the end of her first year of war of $9,366,500,000, French government securities carfnot be regarded as attractive even by the veriest tyro in finance.' The Paris Temps on Septemger 19, 1915, printed a list of twentyseven securities, giving the quotations at the last settlement prior to the outbreak of the war and the quotations for September 15. Rents have declined from 83.05 to 68. Bank of France shares have fallen from 4575 to 4320; Bank of Paris shares from 1385 to 780. And a moratorium is still in force in the French republic. But what is still more tragic in the case of France is that she is the creditor of Russia for more than $4,000,000,000. And during the last year Russia has defaulted on the interest payments. What hope have the French investors for their capital? A study, of the economic, industrial and financial situation of Russia today reveals a series of astounding facts. The data here assembled have 1 I I Great Demand for New Constipation Remedy They say that the advent of the "eentaSl tablet" as a vegetable substitute fir calomel has resulted in an extraordinary demand for this remarkable product. It seems to have made a hit particularly with those afflicted with chronic constipation, who. were quick to recognise Its advantages over calomel and the usual laxatives. 8entanel tablets, aside from their efficacy, doubtless Owe their success largely to a tendency to aid In bringing about natural functioning instead of encouraging the "cathartic habit." Also, instead or Injuring the membraneous lining of the organs involved, they exert a healing Influence. Instead of weakening, they add ton to the Intestinal wall. And they work so easily and gently, they are of course preferred on this account to the violently acting purgatives. Their Inexpensiveness is another reason for the popularity of sentanel tablet. One need procure only a dime's worts, and take pne tablet upon retiring, to be convinced that the ideal remedy for oonatlpatlon, torpid liver, and their many evil ooneetvencea, has finally, been found.

been gathered with great care from official and authoritatives sources. While viewed on the maps German occupation of Russian territory does not seem alarming in extent, compared with the vast area of the Russian empire, yet it will be seen that the Industrial losses have been appalling.

PETITION FOR CALVES GETS 250 SIGNATURES Over 250 signatures have been secured on the petition which is being circulated among the business men of the city, asking the Congress of the United States to pass a law prohibiting the killing of calves under two years, of age. The agitation has been started in other parts of the country, and the petition that is being signed in Wayne county will be a part of a mammoth petition from other cities and states. Petitions have .been placed in the following stores: Hoosler Store, Thistlethwaite drug store (Sixth and Main), Sudhoff's drug store, Westcott hotel, Arlington hotel, Kreimeir, the tailor; Conkey's drug store or Quigley's drug store. Since the beginning of the war and the shutting out of the Russian arti cle, the United States has developed a million dollar business in medicinal oils from petroleum.

ST0ML "SILLS OBJECT
Preaching - at - the - First - Baptist church yesterday the Rev. W. O. 8tpvnll gald In part: ; We tritely sty tbat the object of the church Is to take the world for Jetus. But tome one is likely to reply, "Why take the world for Christ? Twothirds ot the world now claim to be Christians, and ia eonte parts where the universal religion ia called Christian, the ideals ot life are aa low as possible, ignorance and superstition are rampant, and the very name or Christ is used to terrify and exploit the people. - ' The thoughtful man whose laea or Christianity has been warped by this kind of observation is frank to tell you that he considers the reign ot Christ in this world as a -very doubtful blessing. - And - then there Is another man whose view is superficial, but his intentions are good. He thinks that the average man is good enough.-"There may be a submerged tenth." he says, "who need the church's reforming influence, bnt human nature is good enough if only given opportunity." Are Real Objections. These are not just imaginary objections. There are thousands ot persons who are in sympathy with the work of the church, not because they are bad, not because they are not interested in seeing the things accomplished that the church stands for and is striving for. but because they fail to see that the church Is sincerely and In a worth-while way endeavoring to accomplish that it professes to aim at. We must get back of words and names, and come . to concrete mean ings and performances. The man who has no faith in the church because he has been able to see in It only superstition and perversion, must not only be told, but he must be shown that the Christ of the church is the Christ ot the New Testament, the Christ of the poor, the Christ of the unfortunate, the Christ of the weak. hte Christ of the outcast. In the church's effort to claim man kind for Jesus Christ It must be seri ous and sympathetic enough to be able to show the world Its needs, and it must be faithful and earnest enough to be able to convince a convicted world that Christ Is the supply for its needs. It must convince humanity that it is badly sick, and-that Christ ean make It gloriously well. Some of the things that John calls the work of the devil, he calls the work of the flesh. The abundant life he calls the fruits of the Spirit. "The works of the flesh are manifest." he says, "which are rorntcauon, uncieanness. laclvlousness, idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, Jealousies, wrath, the. tlons. divisions, parties, eavylngs, reveling, drunkenness and such like. . . . . But the fruit of the 8plrlt of love, joy, peace, long suffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, meekness, self-control." There we have it. Humanity is a soil that has avidly welcomed the devil's seed-Sowing, tbat has brought forth a crop of greed, misery, guilt and despair. The church must bring to that same field the trnth of Jesus, which is an antidote for ths world's hate and greed and cruelty and filth, and which contains the germs ot love and joy and charity and hope. The task of the church is as iraFeel Fine! Take "tasearefs" For Liver, Bowels Spend 10 Cents! Don't Stay Bilious, Sick, Headachy, Constipated Can't Harm You !
