WILSON'S PARTY LISTS ELIGIBLES FOR NEXT RAGE
Although electing two of their can - didates for county office at the election last year, clerk of . the ' circuit court and a member of the board of commissioners, signalizing the first 'success of their party in Wayne coun'ty in many years, there appears to be ; a lack of Interest among Wayne Democrats in the contest for county offices scheduled for next year, when a recorder, a sheriff, two commissioners, ' a prosecutor and an assessor will be elected. , Up to the present Uie no nnounc ments of candidates for tn6 Demo? erotic nominations for any of these . offices have been made, in marked ; contrast to the activity displayed in v the Republican "camp. ' Lewis is Mentioned. Joshua Allen, several times Democratic nominee" 'for prosecutor, posilively asserted today that he would rot again seek the nomination for that office, which quite probably leaves the field open to Walter Lewis, although he has given no indication of desiring the nomination for prosecutor. , ' Benjamin Drischel, who was the ' Democratic nominee for sheriff last ' year, will not be a candidate again, his friends say. It is understood- that a number of Democratic leaders would like to have fedward McNally, the popular first ! sergeant of the Richmond police force, on the ticket next year as the . candidate for sheriff. McNally has never given the question the slightest Consideration and it is not known to the party leaders whether he would even seek the nomination. They intend to urge him to do so, however. . So far as known - the Democratic nominations for all other county offices to be filled next year are going begging. Interest is Lacking. " Party leaders declare that the present lack of interest in county politics among the Democrats is no indication of an unhealthy party condition. They say that in a short time there will be revival of Interest in affairs political among the Democrats and that there will then be a lively scramble for .places on the ticket, which will be 'formed at the primary election next March. . ' Democrats are planning to . give a "harmony and prosperity" dinner in Richmond in the near future, which - events is expected to revive interest in Democrat io politics in not only Wayne county but all the other counties in the district. It has been hinted for some time that there will be a Wayne county candidate in the field next spring for the Democratic nomination for representative in congress. Wayne Democrats have about had their fill, it is said, of Finly H. Gray and they are planning to Oppose him in the primary -election with a candidate of their own, they believe, would make a more popular appeal to the voters Of the , district than Mr. Gray. Incidentally they believe that Wayne county,, which .has held down the back seat-so long, 'is now entitled to recognition when it comes to selecting the ; Democratic congressional nominee. , John M. Lontc, a Richmond manufacturer, and Lawrence Handler, cashier of a Richmond bank, - have both been mentioned as . prospective candidates for the Democratic congressional nomination.

Indiana, October ,20-22, 1915, That we endorse and approve the eforts now being made to secure the national prohibition of the liquor traffic, both in the United States and Canada, believing as we do that this national evil is un-Christian, un-American, anJ can have no permanent place in a Christian civilization.

ELLEN'S STORY SUITS COUNSEL
NEW YORK, Oct 23. Counsel for the accused millionaires, present and former directors, of the New Haven railway today expressed satisfaction with the testimony so fir of Charles S. Mellen on the conspiracy trial in the United States district court and intimated that the cross-examination of R. V. Lindabury, contrary to expectations, would be a very short proceeding. When Mellen took the stand three days ago it was predicted Lindaburr's cross-examination would be sensational. Mellen's testlmdny, however, has been so tame that Lindabury is authority for the statement that the cross grilling of the former president of the New Haven will -amount to little. Mellen's further direct and cross-examination is expected to occupy all next week.

The First 7-Passenger Four at Less than $IdD0)(0)
88-5
-Time after time. Studebaker has startled the public with a new car at a NEW price that completely upset all existing values. Time after time. Studebaker :hs,. demonstrated beyond a doubt, Its leadership fir the motor Industry. The first 30 h. p. car at 11260 was a Studebaker. The first full-grown, . S-passenger car at $860 was a Studebaker. The FIRST Six at less than $2000 was a Studebaker. And now Studebaker has produced a new car that even more conclusively proves Its leadership a 7-passenger FOUR with a 40 h. p. motor at $885. It is the FIRST 7-passenger FOUR aver priced at less than $1000 and the BIGGEST car that any price less then $1000 ever bought It is a 7-passenger car not only' In name but In REALITY. It carries .7 full-grown people In comfort. It ts larger in every waylonger and roomier. There is more leg-room everywhere. The driver has more room and the front seat is divided. The tooneeu is more commodious. The heavily-cushioned ton neau seats disappear completely Into recesses in the floor. The body is deeper the seats lower and tilted. The cushions are larger, deeper and softer. The doors open wider. The tires are biggerGoodrlch 34x48 with Safety Treads on rear wheels. It Is the MOST POWERFUL ear ever priced at less than $1000. -Its power has been greatly increased over last year's motor. Now. it develops FULL 40 h. p. (41 h. p. on the brake test.) The motor is larger Increased to 8 inches in bore. "The pistons are longer and lighter with THREE rings at topone at bottom, insuring better compression and MORE POWER. The carburetor has been transferred to the left side of the motor, cutting down the distance the gas travels to a few inches. The valves and gas passages have been greatly improved. The radiator has been enlarged and the cooling system improved. The oiling system has been greatly simplified. The Wagner eleotrio system Is the same that Studebaker has had so much suocess
with a two-unit system, bunt to order for Studebaker. The starter cranks the motor through a noiseless chain runs only when . starting the car. The generator Is the same ' - simple and reliable -but it has., been moved to a point in front of the motor, and . drives in a vertical position, giving more room and making it much more accessible '- The wiring is the one-wire system, and the entire system can be removed as an UNIT. And scores ot other improvements in design have not. only made the motor more powerful, but far more flexible and more responsive. And now with this motor, the new Studebaker Forty H. P. FOUR has a snappiness of action, a resistless, unbroken flow or PULLING power that makes It a wonder to drive -But it is not only a bigger car and a more powerful car; it Is a BETTER ear better In every detail. Studebaker has always built a QUALITY car. But this now Forty H. P. FOUR sets a new QUALITY mark even for Stndebakers. The upholstery is the finest grade of leath- . ..er that can be bought a velvety, handbuffed, semi-bright leather that will outlast any other upholstery materials ever used. The cushions are deeper and larger built with a new Studebaker device that insures their keeping shape and springiness. The finish of the cars has been Improved. Not only has another expensive finishing op eration been added, making 25 in all, but Studebaker is now using a rich Bine And while blue makes the most attractive color for a car, it Is the costliest color to use. For the slightest slip ot the brush means that th ecar must be repainted. Better materials have been used throughout. The steering knuckle, for example, is now forged ot the htgbest-grade Chrome Nickel Steel. So. too. with the transmission shafts. The top is silk mohair. The chassis and the body are thoroughly painted even the places that you never see. It protects the car. Lift the cushions of this car and any other and note the difference. The cone clutch ts larger, faced with leather, and easier acting. The universal Joints
are improved. The propeller shaft is longer and larger in diameter. The radius rods are longer. The rear axle is the famous Studebaker FULL-fleating axle with larger Timken bearings. Large, easier-acting, tightgripping brakes IB x S inches, faced with Multlbestoe can stop a car in a few feet. The brake equaliser has been set back on ' the pear axle, The ear Is handsomer than ever. It's a big, lew-lying, massive ear but raarveleusly graceful. The line of the hood new carries ever Into the eowL The cowl is longer, The erown fenders are deeper. And . (he lines ef the entire oar flow In graceful, unbroken curves from radiator to tail-light. - it's convenience haa been much Increased. The pedals, for example, are adjustable.. The gasoline guage, ell gnege, electric controls and speedometer are grouped In the center ef the dash within eaay reach and sight. Clutch and brake are easier aettng the Studebaker FPLLvfleating rear axle has larger Ttmhea bearings, In feet net a ehanee has been overlooked te make the ear BETTER, And you get a higher quality car a bigger ear a more powerful ear but yea pay LESS. You pay less -because It's a Studebaker because Studebaker resourcea and manufacturing experience enabled a to make , astonishing savings savings that ye)-get the FULL benefit ef, Come and see the ear. A whole book of specifications couldnt begin to convey the Impression that your first glimpse of the car will. You cant find n ear that gives more at ANY price- and no car at leas . price gives aa much. Deliveries at once, ,
