Just as Soon be a Camel as Not.

B. N. Fendig received a badge from Frank Meyer, the assistant par-tnaaer at Gary < the other day. It is a 4-mc-cretie badge, given Out in Gary to Influence the votes of men «Aio want shtoons reinstated these. ' ■ The badge: reads "Vote the INDIANA STATE REPUBLICAN TICKET if you Want tb baa CaoteL’t T< e inference to be gathered is "if you want-tor live In a deatrt and gi t' 1 tty dnys w thout a drink vote the lepubllcaa ttate comparison; they would so ot belike ticket.” I And there Is, of course another inference to the effect that "it you want saloons reinstated in Gary you should vote the democratic state ticket” f It Well, there are a lot of people down this way that don’t mind the camel j comparison; they would.suorer be 'lke a camel than fish. The badge la reilly very funny, but It will be better political argument in Gary than it would in Rensselaer.
