Much has been said about the candidacy of Hon. W. J. Hryan for president. so much in fact, that he made the following statement, and this statement is honest and honorable as
is the man:
“Now that the election of 1907 is past and plans are being made for next year's campaign, Mr. Uryan feels that a statement is due to the public. Those who prefer another candidate are entitled to know his position, and those who favor his nomination have a right to demand an answer to the question so often put, ‘Will you accept the nom'nation?’ His refusal to answer the question has led to the circulation of many rumors and unfriendly newspapers have taken advantage of his silence to misrepresent his attitud “Mr. Bryan will not ask for, «• seek a nomination and he will !' or assume to decide the question of his availability. He has been so amply recompensed by his party tor what he has done, and for what he has endeavored to do, that he cannot claim a nomination as a reward; neither should his ambition be considered for he has had honors enough from his party to satisfy any reasonable ambition. The only question that ought to weight, with the party is whether the party can be strengthened and aided more by his nomination than by the nomination of some one else. If he can serve the party by being its candidate he will accept the commission and make the best fight he can. If. however, the choice falls upon another, he will not be disappointed nor disgruntled. His availability is a question to be decided not by him, not by a few leaders, not even by the leading newspapers that call themselves democratic, but by the voters of the party, and to them he entrusts the decision of the question. They are the supreme court in all matters concerned candidates as they are in all matters concern-
ing the platform.
"He assumes that they will not select him unless they desire to make an aggressive fight for the application of democratic principles to pre. sent conditions and he also takes It for granted that the organization of the party will be in harmony with the platform and will be composed of men whose political records will invite confidence and give assurance that a victory, if won, will not be a
barren victory.
"The next campaign will be an appeal to the public conscience. The investigations have show r n not. only the corrupt use of large campaign funds, but. the only source from which they may be drawn, namely the corporations that seek to convert the government into a business asset. The democratic party stands for the doctrine of equal rights to all and special privileges to none, and therefore, cannot promise favors to favorseeking corporations. If it made such promises to the corporations it would have to betray the voters as the republican party has done in order to reward these corporations as the republican party lias rewarded
them.
"The democratic campaign must be carried on by volunteers who work because they desire the triumph of democratic ideas. We cannot hope to appeal to the sordid or to buy the purchasable even if such purchases would contribute toward democratic success. No one would favor Mr. Bryan’s nomination unless the party is willing to open its books and show where its contributions came from and for what the money is expended. The republican party ought to be ■'halb'nged to conduct Its campaign in ibis open and honorable way and if the republican leaders refuse to accept the challenge the democrats can well afford to leave the issue with the public. An appeal to conscience is politically expedient as well as morally right for the conscience, and is the most potent force with which man deals. The national cc nselenco h is already been aroused and a large majority of the voters ha\c been educated to the necessity of real reform—a reform that will make this government of the people, by the people and for the people. It only remains for the democratic party to convince the voters that it can be entrusted with the work of reform, and nothing will do more to convince the voter than a refusal to negotiate with pedatory wealth and an honest appeal by honest methods to the honest sentiment of the counfy.” _jc.ii
From the present condition of the interurban line building between this city and Greencastle. there Is no reason why cars should not be running by the first of the year. Ratcliff Bros., who have had a gradjng contract on the line, completed their work and withdrew their men yesterday. Leonard & McDowell, the general contractors on the line between this city and Grencastlo, have completed all of their work except one mud cut near Reelsville, and this, with the present favorable weather, will bo finished in a few days. This puts the matter up to the company, and if they are not running cars by January first, as they promised a short time ago, it will be their fault, as there is now nothing in the way of laying the ties, putting up the polos and stringing the wires The track will be ballasted with crushed stone from the quarries at Greencastle, and the road bed will be the finest of any Interurban line in the state. Track has been laid from Greencastle w?st

The law governing the new road district of a townsnlp will be in effect after December 1, 1907. In every township of 36 square miles of territory there can be only four road districts, and a township having over 36 square miles there can be six road districts. The election will he held on December 14. A person to be a candidate for supervisor must be a legal voter and resident of the road district. This means that he must have resided therein thirty days and in the county

A person entitled to vote must not live in a city or town and must be a legal voter in the district. Residents of cities and towns cannot vote for I
supervisor.
Before the first Monday in Decern her the trustee shall post notices in at least two places in each road district stating where the election is to be held, between what hours, which must be the same in all the road districts. The trustee acts as inspector of the district nearest to his home, in case he lives in a town or city The trustee appoints all the other inspectors, who must be freeholders in the road districts where they are appointed, ann they and the clerks must serve without pay. The inspector and two clerks in each road district are to act as an election hoard and judge of the qualification of the voters, receive the balots, canvass the vote, count the. ballots and certify the result to the trustee.

About this time a consumption treatment of German origin, called “Lung-Germine,' which procured from the Lung-Germine Co., of Jackson, Mich., was recommended to me by one of my colleagues in Congress. I began using this treatment, and at the end of six months my cough was entirely gone, and I had gained 26 pounds in weiv.it, my strength had returned and I returned to work, being fully qualified in every respect to attend
to my duties.
I have made no statement previous to this time with regard to my cure, for I wished to be absolutely satisfied that a complete cure had been effected. I now weigh as much as I ever did in my life, and I amstrong and thoroughly healthy in every res-

Gravel Road Petition
The Town Board met in regular session Friday night, and the mem hers evidently had their hammers out, for as a result of their discussion Town Clerk Dill was ordered write to the State Railroad Commis sion and lodge complaint against the Indianopolis, Terre Haute and Eastern Traction Co., alleging that no station or waiting room was provided for passengers at the Danville terminal, that cars were run without heat or closets and a number of other things that can be proved as true by patrons of the line. Town Dad Hogate had evidently been reading in his exchanges of the handsome and commodious stations that the company has and Is building at towns on other lines In its system, and the new cars, 90-feet long, handsomely upholstered, equipped with all the latest appliances for comfort and capable of making 70 miles an hour that it is running on the other lines, and hopes to have the Railroad Commission compel said cornpan) to furnish such accommodations to its Danville patrons. Here's hoping the lodging of the complaint will result in bringing to us the best the traction company has in shop.
