Such 4 jr honest view o.' the county ticket situation, whli fairnes., and public interest and welfare considered throughout, of course, with our highest commendations always, that you stand by the preidtn; and elect, or re-elect, Congressman Henry A.

THE COUNTY TICKETS AND THE MEN DESERVING OH FAVOR. Ideally, in an hour like this. In the midst of reat crimes; when partisan opposition shows no corner, refpecting neither the character of men or of nation?, and kupports anything on Its ticket, denouncing all otherwise een though it tends to promote national indignity in the eye of the world, one is almost prone to doibt whether the democratic idea is after all. hardly worth making the world safe for, It sems no longer a matter of men. even in local affair.", but of parties. When we .se thu republican

organ indorsing that party's candidate for prosecutor as it now does, knowing him previous record in that ollUt, and seeking to establish on the bench a candidate for JuU'o whom it k- owa. a it does, could not properly trace toe ofTlce cf Justice of the peace, we bluFh for it with shame, and for the party that it supports. We understand it more and more, why the president wants a democratic congress, and we have about concluded to Hay to the democrats of St. Joseph county, therefore, there being no principle involved on the part of the opposition, you might about as well fight the ueil with his own tongs and vote your ticket straight. We have been averse to the election of the democratic legislative ticket. Our readers know why. When we discovered that the republican condidate for the senate was a pro-German however, we repented to the extent of indorsing George V. Hepler in his stead. Prohibition can wait, if need be, so far as concerns that vote, and we are not to sure but that Hepler, although he has refused to be bully-rapged by republican-made political committees and new.s-rags, would vote th'J tame as Anderson would at that. Ai to the remainder of th legislative ticket it sickens us to see republicans campaigning for the election of the republicans on their "wet and dry" promises, vrhile at the um time uing Congressman llarnhart'c ote or. the same subject, against him. We are not apostles of hate, but we do hate buch damnable hypocrites. With this suggestion before you. you can use your own Judgment. Edgar 8. Anderson, for his proGermanism, should be defeated for the senate by all odds. Let him run for the relchstair. We have heretofore mentioned certain other of vh: county oftlces. Arthur Wolf, for auditor; Edward F. Keller, for treasurer; George Haab, for clerk, have proven their ertlciency and deserve re-election for the good work they have done, while their opponents have

1 done nothing to -deserve election at all.

Tho republican candidate for clerk would be as an attache of the Indiana fc Michigan Electric Co., ir, that othce. which might mean much for the public utilities, when it comes to reviewing the tax rolls, or it might not. The republican candidates for treasurer and auditor, are both clique candidates, too closely associated with a faction of the republican party which runs mainly to "fat," to render them particularly desirable to the people. The election of democratic assessors is another important feature. They have proved by their work an unusual regard for the tax rights of the masses, and that they who own the most of the wealth should bear their full share of the public burdens. We would es

pecially commend Assessor Joseph Voorde, who

J brought the mountains and valleyn of taxation to a

level, and ended the unjust discrimination in favor of the super-landed and money lordi. As to the rttice of sheriff, Frank Niezgodski, the democratic nominee, has to his advantage four years' efrience as deputy. Oh yes, he's Polish, but with half the lighters In the army that have gone from St. Joseph county, cf Polish blood, sure it Is no disqualification for olf.ee merely to be Polish. A decent tribute to our Polish warriors would be to show our apprecia

tion of them by bestowing this ufiice on one of their number. Add to this the fact that hi opponent. Louis Duck, is cai.vassing the Germans and pro-'jermans with the fact that the IN hh have been particularly active after the above manner, apain.t Germany, and who wants Louis Duck for sherlft? Such pro-Germanism, and appeals to pro-Germanism; well, you can vote along With it if you want to. There remains then the circuit and superior court

Judgeships and the o'lice. of the prosecutor. We have

referred to these otüces before. Hy "typographical error" a statement appearing in this column said tho other day that Judce Funk had held his olMce for 24 year, when had a line not have been dropped out. p. rould have read that another term would make It 4 years. Hut IS is long enough at that. We understand

that it heems like 40 years to Thomas W. Slick who

;as teen anxious twice now for the circuit Judge to steu

:ailde and let him make the republican race. Francis Ja:kson is Judge Funk's opponent on the demo-

ratic ticket, and would be a very tilting successor; nuch murei than Mr. Slick could ever be. As to the superior court judgeship, we repeat again

that there is no comparison as between Chester K.

MontKoniery. the democratic nominee, and his re-

lublican opponent I.enn J. Oare. Efforts to induct Ovru- E. I'attee into the prosecutor's

rnce. aumitteuiy now, on tne part or trie republican rgan, because he Is wanted to cooperate with the city

xdmiolatra (ion and the police department, are di-

STANDARDIZATION OF WAGES. It is no üilficiilt matter to distinguish the desperate character of the present republican campaign. Nor, for that matter, has there ever been the slightest trouble in ascertaining when the members of the g. o. p. were hard pressed. Given a tight campaign, with the tide running against them, and republican "leaders" always resort to that old weapon the calamity howl. Remember how it made its appearance back in '!6? And the "full dinner pail" argument of 1900? Then we had a respite. Democratic organization slumped and we were mercifully spared in 1904. Then came 1908. We had Just experienced a glorious republican panic that of 1907 with all the acute suffering incident thereto, but the g. o. p. politicians had the brazen effrontery to drag out the old plea once more. In 1911', the stand-patters and the bull mice were too busy fighting each other to have time for anything else, and in 1916 Mr. Hughes and his friends were so certain of victory they felt no need to renew the old cry. Put now, in 1918, the republicans are desperate, mighty desperate. They feel the ground slipping from under their feet, and once more the calamity howl is heard in the land. The argument is always the same: Elect republicans to oillce, for the republican party is alone ablu to grapple with the industrial problems of the country. Put have the democrats failed eo miserably, after all? Let us examine the facts. Wages are higher today than ever in the past. Out' g. o. p, friends reply that this condition is abnormal, and that sooner or later the bottom is certain to drop out of the wage market. Hut is this so? Not If Tres Wilson is permitted to carry out his problem in behalf cf the laboring mar. In the "good old days" of republicanism, the scheme seemed to be something like this: Give the laboring man Just enough to keep him from starvation, raising wages only when his demands become so insistent as to threaten disaster. There was no attempt at a standardization of wages, no effort to base wages upon the cost of living. There can be no Justice in such a plan, so it is not surprising to find that the years of republican administration were the years which produced America's industrial plutocracy. As the few on top became more and more wealthy, the many at the bottom became poorer and poorer. Under democratic auspices, all this has been changed For the first time in the history of the United States, a genuine effort has been made to adjust wage scales to the cost of living. In this wk, the war labor board has played a momentous part. It is no longer a question of "How much will we have to pay our employes to keep them from striking?" but "What is a fair return for this man's labor, considered in relation tc the cost of living?" For, after all. that only is a fair wage which Is based upon the cost of living. Here is a truly scientific approach, one designed to bring greater stability and greater security than the haphaz;rd methods of republican days. Standardization of wages is on the way. Will the workers of America give endorsement to such a plan, or will they vote for a return of the unscientific hodge-podge which obtained In the days of republican control? Their action next Tuesday will determine the matter.

DUMPS 200 GALLONS OF WHISKY IN CITY SEWEF

Of this amount, 4 32 pints were taken in one rail a few days ago- At the current rate for booze, $4 a pint, the "loss" was $6,400.

HO YOU KNOW THAT TUTS THKATKU IS EQUIPPED WITH A PERFECT VENTILATING SYSTEM?

NO WEAKENING! THANK YOU. A grave danger lies in the continuous stream of appeals and letters sent by Germans' and her associates to this country. It is that the opinion of the American people be swayed toward leniency in the discussions of peace. The appeals are sent with exactly that hope In mind. There will be no weakness or false sentiment in th? attitudo of those nations abroad who have suftercd from German outrage, and on whom have fallen the heaviest burdens of the war. It is noticeable that Germany directs no appeal to them. There are serious possibilities. however, of America's drifting into a sort of easy-going attitude and good-natured tolerance for what she considers a fallen foe. These who suffered greatly will demand great reparation. It Is right that we. who entered the war in the Interests of Justice and freedom, close our cars to the insidious whimpers of German flattery whose purpose is to turn us from clear-eyed judgment to soft-headei

sympathy, and that we giv e our unbroken support t j j any course, however stringent, demanded by our allk ij

In dealing with the Germans. Every vile wron?. every outrage should be remembered and considered in tho !!ht of our feeling toward

Gum Shoes for Porch Climbers But Legitimate Business Should Advertise! Advertising is the commonest, most natural thing in the world. Everybody advertises but some do it BETTER than others, and rise HIGHER in the scale. If you happen to have a thing that you want to sell youH never sell it bv keeping MUM about it. SAY something! That's a form of advertising. If the first fellow you say it to doesn't seem interested, tell somebody else and if that doesn't sell it and jou're really bent upon selling it, insert your story in the. NEWSPAPER and then everybody will know! The fish horn is an advertising medium so is the cow bell. When you want the COWS, you listen for the AD that is strapped to the neck of the DELL COW, and head for where the sound comes. When vou wish to know where the right kind of SHOPPING IS GOING ON, and where to turn your DOLLARS to the best account- you go to the ADS in the NEWSPAPER. The ways of mankind are reciprocal. We are obliged to lean upon each other. We serve, and are served in return. Every fellow has a stock-in-trade that must be pushed and in one form or another everv human MUST advertise, but more especiallv must the BUSINESS MAN. There is no honest business that advertising will not help not one and by far the bet means of advertising thus far devised for BUSINESS is the DAILY NEWSPAPER. If it's wor.h your while to be in business at all you can make it vastly MORE worth your while by getting into the newspapers and telling people about It I The "MOLE is a timid creature and operates underground. Don't be a nonadvertiser and emulate the mole. Gum shoes for porch climbers but legitimate operators should MAKE a NOISE!
