Vote for Me! tv The statute of limitation prohibits me from running fpr mayor on the regular ticket, so I have been forced to run on the independent ticket. You will find my emblem that of plenty of good things to eat. I have adopted the rooster picked every Thursday and Sunday; (although he has been picked oftener than that for the last forty years.) I have also selected my own voting place on South Van Rensselaer street, opposite the west entrance to the court house. You can all vote for me—men, women and children. All look alike to me when it comes to eating. Come and vote early and often. I am anxiously awaiting your 25 cent ballots. ' j Yours with beating, liear,t, GEORGE FATE, The Fat Dinner Man.

John D. Gives a Million To Fight Disease In South.

The prejudice that has been growing for some years against every rich person that has made his money by the sale of a commodity to the people has been especially severe against John D. Rockefeller. He has been cussed by the public and defended by very few people. Sometimes prejudice is so strong that nothing a man can do will be regarded as defensible. But John D. Rockefeller, who sells us coal oil and gasoline and who charges us a lot less now than others did when he engaged in the business, has been engaged in some really worthy charities that the public have known about and a 16t of others probably that the public did not know about because much of his charity is of a silent kind. Some years ago when a doctor discovered a new treatment for spinal meningitis he went to John D. Rockefeller for financial aid and Mr. Rockefeller arranged to have a representative in every state'in the union authorized to administer the anti-toxin while it was in its experimental stage. He paid all the expense of perfecting the treatment and of administering it and many lives have been saved and the experiments are stilly going on with John D. as the backer. For some time a disease has been common in the south alid especially among the poor people of that section, known as “hook worm.” Mr. Rockefeller learned of the ravages of the parasite, for the cause of the disease seems to be a little hair-like" worm, and he decided to do something to overcome it. He had his agents call a dozen of the leading educators, scientists and medical men from the south to New r York for a conference and then announced that he would give a million dollars toward breaking up the disease. John D. Rockefeller is not the dangerous man so many have pictured him. He gives as he sees best to give and that, is the way we smaller givers do. Probably John D. has a better chance of a heavenly reward than some of his critics think he has.

November Ist has started out with a drizzling rain that will prove a great disappointment to farmers who were anxious to get into the corn fields. Sunday was a balmy, beautiful day. A cold snap with a sharp freeze, followed by some dry weather would be the best thing for corn. Hurley Beam was up from Indianapolis over Sunday. He continues to make splendid progress in his work at Winona Tech, and has already been promised a position when \he completes the course. Ray Hbpeins, who is attending Wabash college, recently called on Hurley and is himself thinking of taking the Winona work. Riley Tullis last week advertised through the Republican for 200 bushels of small potatoes for hogs, offering 30 cents a bushel. He had waited until quite- late to advertise, but he got the potatoes and gives the Republican credit for it. Whenever you want anything try the Republican classified* column. You won’t be disappointed. E. Hollin, the shoemaker, has had a serious relapse, and it is thought almost impossible now for him to recover. He was unconscious this morning and apparently in & very critical condition. He was an industrious man, and a fine citizen and it will be a serious loss to the community if he dies.
