CORWIN REFUSES TO BE CANDIDATE
LOC AL ATTORNEY MENDS LETTER TO CHAIRMAN OF THF UKPIHLIC AN COUNTY COMMITTEE—MAY LEAVE VACANCY ON TICKET.
THE LETTER IN FULL
In a letter to Charley F. Zeis, chairman of the Putnam County Republican Committee, Ben S. Corwin, the local attorney, who was nominated by the Regular Republicans in their county convention as their candidate for Judge of the Circuit Court, refuses to accept the nomination and states that he will not allow his name to go onto the ballots as a candidateThe letter to Mr. Zeis, which is self explanatory, is as follows: Sept. 11, 1912. Charles F. Zeis, Chairman, Greencastle, Indiana. My Dear Sir: Absence from home at the date of the Republican county convention, prevented my attendance at that meeting: and it was some days after that date when 1 learned of my nomination for the office of Judge of the Putnam Circuit Court. T deem it an honor to have been chosen for a place on the Republican County ticket and truly regret the circumstances which prevent an acceptance. My personal interests and business are such that I cannot, at this time become a candidate for any office; and for that reason must decline the nomination tendered me. Through you I wish to assure my friends of the appreciation of their many kindnesses and of my regret that circumstances now prevent my accepting the place they have tendered me. While I cannot enter into the campaign, as a candidate, I hope for the success of the Republic party and 1 shall deem it a privilege to do whatsoever I may be able to do to further the interests of the Repub- : ican party. Very truly yours, B F. CORWIN. The Republican committee probably will not nominate any one to fill the vacancy caused by the resigr.ation of Mr. Corwin. Judge James . Hughes, who is a candidate for rc-election on the Democratic ticket, has made such a record while on the bench that the Republicans are entirely satisfied that he will Vie elected hy an overwhelming majo--ity. So what is the need of nominating an opponent for him, is 'lie wav they express it. In ease the Republicans do not nominate then the rac» w’Bl be botween Bull Mooser Jackson Bovd and Judge Hughes

At least 600 persons will die of typhoid fever in Indiana between now and Christmas, says a new state board of health bulletin entitled “Murder by Typhoid " The circular which tells about what Dr. Hurty calls the “nasty disease” will be sent to whoever asks for it'. Attention is called to the fact that the typhoid death rate in Indiana, which is 35.1 is higher than the cholera death rate in heathen India. “Simply because people refuse or neglect to take proper sanitary care of all their sewage all of the time there must die betw-een now and Christmas in Indiana not less than 600 human beings now alive and well,” says the bulletin. “August has already reported 125 deaths, another 125 will oceur m September. 175 will occur in October, another 125 in November and 75 in December. “The board is able to make this specific prediction because *be same is based upon the experience of the state for the last ten years. The bulletin further says: “Typhoid fever, like sin. is a re proach to any community. Tt does not come to us as a punishment, hut is the result of our failure to obev the laws of health ”
