3 TOUCHDOWNS TO OREENSTREET

Saturday proved to ho a successful day for Old Gold. Not only did the preps defeat the Ladoga moleskin artists 11 to 0, but also the Varsity “skunked” the Frankliuites to the tune of 20 to 0. in fact there were practically three victories the preps over the Ladoga High School, the Varsity over Franklin and the DePauw Second team over the ime Baptist team for during the last half of the Varsity game there were no regular Varsity men playing. As a curtain raiser to the VarsityFranklin game the DePauw Academy played the I.adoga High School team. This game proved to be an easy one, as the preps were not only heavier than their opponents, but they had received better coaching and practice However, the game showed that the prep team is still full of stars and that, with more practice

and coaching, they will give some team a hard race for state championship. The game was at no time in any danger as the preps won their 11 points during the first half of the contest and then Captain Long chose to try out his squad rather than run up the score. Spurgeon at full. Tucker at quarter and Burnside at guard were the main lights of the game. With the Varsity it was the same program. Within five minutes of play Greenstreet was shoved between the posts for the first goal, and in six more minutes of quarterback runs and line bucks, the pigskin was once more placed behind the line for the second touchdown. The consistent ground gainers for DePauw were Vesey and Greenstreet and Grady. Capt. Jackson played a fine game at end. Lineup: DePauw Position Franklin Jackson (C) . .

Governor Haskell, of Oklahoma, National Treasurer of the Democratic Campaign Committee, has resigned his position. The resignation is due to the charges preferred against him by Hearst and President Roosevelt. He does not, for a moment. admit that the charges are true, hut resigns that no taint of corruption may rest upon the Democratic party. Senator DuPont, chairman of the Republican Speaker’s Bureau has also resigned from the Republican committee. DuPont is connected with the Powder Trust now being prosecuted by the government. He was sent to the senate by his tru-t friends to aid trust affairs. The campaign has become so warm that he now resigns. Another startling incident of the day is the accusation by Senator Foraker. of Ohio, that Taft smells of oil and sugar. Foraker charges that Taft has been very close to the Standard Oil and to the Glass Trusts and other illegal combinations. He suggests that in the light of the action of Haskell and DuPont and himself when accused Taft should get off the ticket in order not to embarrass the Republican party.

A committee of the city council and Messrs. Grover and Holderman of the Terre Haute, Indianapolis & Eastern Traction Company, held a long session in the office of Engineer 1 Fletcher Saturday in nn etTort to adjust tlie trouble arising over the met that nine poles belonging to tlie company are located in the survey of the sidewalk on West National Avenue. Arguments over the matter caused V W. Knight, it is claimed, to call Councilman Jack Jones a liar, whereupon Jones smashed Knight in the fare, knocking him down. Messrs. Holderman and Grover acted as peacemakers and separated the two men. An adjournment was taken without anything being accomplished and it is a difficult matter to conjecture just what the outcome will be, as the conference last night, it is claimed, did not diminish tlie ill feeling that now exists between the city and the traction company.

Prohibitionists of the county have written letters to Mr. Hottel asking him to vote against the county option bill, as they do not think the measure would advance the temperance cause, believing that if a county should vote “wet” the entire county would have to he so, regardless of the fart that a ward or township might be “dry.” Those who have been carrying the petitions in this county are John C.

The Putnam County Teachers' Institute for the year 1909 will be held in the Court House at Greencastle j during tlie week of August 22 to 27. The work will be along lines not (heretofore taken up In this county, at | least for some t'mo. Professor E. P. | Wilds, of Muncle, will discuss the literature of the Bible. Dr. Fred Muti clier, of Bowling Green, TCy., will | talk on nature study. Both men are ; highly Ktpoken or in their dopart- ! ments of study, nnd will, doubtless. I make the institute of 1999 one long! bo remembered.

The Bryan and Kern Club of Washington Township met Fri night for tiie fir t regular session after tlie organization last week. Tlie meeting was hel l at the McHaffie School

ITo-ise ! n tlie southwest part of the

township. All were present that could be accommodated in the

school house.

The speakers of the evening were | James P. Hughes, candidate for prosecuting attorney and Jackson Boyd. Both made excellent addresses that were enthusiastically received.

The latest thing in the humorous line hails from Putnam County and it is a peacherina with a black-face capital “P”. Oscar F. Lane, the man whom the Republicans of Putnam County drafted in tilling tiie coun'y ticket to run for representative on a forlorn hope, has telegraphed Representative D. B. Hostetler, the present Democratic Representative from Putnam County and candidate for reelection. that if he. (Hostetler! would vote for the Republican caucus county option bill, he (Lane) would withdraw as the Republican candidate and give Hostetler a clear field. It is to laugh, in, ha. Hoste*te r immediately and indignantly informed Mr. Lane that he would never vote for the Repiih]ica:i measure and that lie would have about ns cionr field with Lane on r • Republican ticket as if he wer- to withdraw. W irh a Normal Dem - ratio majority in Putnam County of -,00 to 800 "bat would Hos’^ttcr want with a clear field w 1 on the Democratic lari 1slido this fall is certain to elect him by a nm or J v o? anywhere from 1.000 nn. The nerve of some people: Mr. Lane offering the Democratic candidate a clear field. Ha, ha, it is to laugh. Why. Harry Smith, we are surprised at you publishing such rubbish in the Banner.
