THE THIRD DISTRICT.

5000 Majority.

SEYMOUR, Sept %. - Special - The
nomination Of the Hon. Strother NJ Stock
slayer Of Harrison county as the demo-
cratic Standard-bearer for the Third In
diana congressional district calls to mind
an amusing incident.
At the close Of his first canvass for
congressional honors several years ago
things were going the republican way in
this state pretty much as they used 10 20
for Governor Kent in Maine. Everybody
everywhere was anxious to hear the news.

midnight, but 10 the inquiry, How is

etc. only that and nothing more. Pres
emily some impatient LISTENER broke out
with: Who in hell l. Stockslager?" and
there We're none TO answer. For he was
almost as little known at home then as
his name was strange abroad.
But things have changed. Through two
terms of faithful service in congress,
and later, during a longer service as COM
missioner Of the general land office, he
has acquired a national name and FAM
as an earnest, faithful and reliable demo-
cratic statesman and as a public official

THE THIRTEENTH DISTRICT.
The Sunlight of Unmixed Peace
shines RefuIgent.


LAPORTE. Sept. %. - Special. - The
democrats of the Thirteenth district have
finally emerged from the dissatisfaction
and doubt that has surrounded them for
several weeks, owing to the uncertain p)-
sltlon taken by Congressman Conn in re-
gard to a nomination.
Tuesday, Sept. II, the convention as
sembled at South Bend and. by a unani-
nous vote. placed in nomination the Hon.
Llewellyn Wanner Of Goshen and now
the sunlight of unmiXed peace shines re-
fulgent in the Thirteenth district. All Is
contentment and harmony In the party
and every democrat is ready,
metaphorically speaking, TO roll up
his sleeves and put his shoul-
der to the wheel" as in former cam
paigns. when the most signal victories
have been achieved. Two years ago the
democratic vote on congressman in the
six counties of the district was 21,627 and
cratic plurality of 1,940. The prohibition
vote in the district was then S72 and the
popullsts scored 100 From present APP
pearances the prohibltionists Will a little
more than hold their ground, but their

contest. They are led by DR.. Huntslnger

THE TWELFTH DISTRICT.
Everything Points to Sweeping
Victory.

Victory.
FIT. WAYNE, Sept. 22.-Special.-There
are three congressional candidates in the
Twelfth district, and as yet but little
excitement has been occasioncd by the
political leaders.
The Hon. J. d. Leighty Of St. Joe, De-
Kalb county, is a quiet, unassuming bus
mess man and possibly could not deliver
a speech II asked TO do So He has Gre
ated no enthusiasm anywhere in the dis
trlct, and in the eyes of many Of the
republican leaders of Allen county he is
not a strong candidate, nor was he the
choice OF the district, but merely a po-
litical accident. Fog Horn" Kelley, the
populist nominee, is likewise DeKalb
county man. He has stumped the dis
trict for different political parties and,
in fact. seldom knows where he is on
a single political issue unless he is NOM
mated by a party. His views are as
changing as the tides. 1t Is predicted
that he will receive a few republican
votes and also the vote OF the dlsgrun-
ocrats.
Recently Congressman w. i. Nc
Nagny was renominated by the demo-
Gratis, and his speech before the conven-
ton made him many supporters. His
career In congress has been noble. pa
triotic, honorable and praiseworthy. OF
course, in being triumphantly elected
during a democratic administration. he
has been unable to appease the desires
of many oflice-seekers, but he has never
theless elevated the most worthy men
of the district to important positions
He has made few, If any, mistakes and
the opposition OF the soreheads before
the convention has entirely disappeared
This weeks democratic papers through
ont the district have all, except one (the

Heved that they will put a man in the
field in time to make a good fight. The
leaders are confident that the rank and
file of the democratic party are as loyal
as ever. and that the only way the vote
can be reduced is by an apathy on the
part of the voters TO such an extent that
they will STAY AWAY from the polls.

a THE GRAVEL. ooBBLE AGAIN.
Street superintendent Murray and the
Order of the Trustees.

Street Superintendent Murray called at
the REcoRp-U UNION office Saturday to
complain that the RECoRD-UNIoN is
"after him." Mr.. Murray is wonder
fully mistaken; this paper has no per-
sonal quarrel with him; the RECORD
UNION is aiie the cobbles Mr.. Murray is
putting on the streets 10 serve as gravel.
1t is entirely fair to Mr.. Murray to say
that the material he is using he is COM
PEELED by the order of the Trustees to TAX e
from pit that was long ago abandoned
as worked out.
But the Street Superintendents error
is one Of Interpretation. Last Monday
the Trustees, by the written request OF
the Humane Society, passed an order that
hereafter" no more Of these stones be
put upon the streets for repair purposes,
and that the material TO be used should be
gravel to be screened as the Street Com
mittee should determine.
Mr.. Murray has received that order,
but denies that he has been directed to
stop the use of the present material. That
is because he interpre:s the word here
after improperly and precisely the re-
verse OF the understanding OF everybody
else. 1t means from and after The date OF
the order, and can have no other mean
ing. The real wording of the motion OF
Trustee Leonard was that 1.-THE use of
these stones on the street cease, and that
hereafter only such material be used" :"
etc., but Clerk Flint did not in his min
utes thus write it. However, what he
did note was ample and ought to be un-
derstandable by a en-year-old boy.

the order teams continue 10 maui III the
cobbles, and force Of men follow after

4 Humane Society Member Teaches
an Inebrinte IL Lesson,
At Oak Park yesterday drunken man
drove up to the car terminus with his
horse white with foam and in terribly
jaded condition. The driver had another
man in the buggy with him who was
equally as drunk as himself
w. +. Calderwood, vino is member of
the Humane Society. happened to be
present and requested the driver to hitch
the horse and let him rest This the man
refused to do, so Mr.. Calderwood called
Constable lghtfoot and told him to ar
rest the driver OF the morse on charge OF
cruelty.
Quite crowd gathered about the
buggy, including two or three very fresh
young men, who were just drunk enough
TO be ugly, and they undertook to pre-
vent the mans arrest. One of them went
50 far as to aim a blow at Calderwood.
and the latter went for him, but his as
sailant got out of harm's way.
The owner of the horse refused to sur
render, but Constable Lightfoot yanked
him out OF the buggy and handcuffed
him. He was taken TO the residence OF
Justice of the Peace McMahon, where
Calderwood was about to swear to a COM
plant, when the man changed his tune
and pleaded to be allowed TO 60 home to
his family. He said the horse was frac-
tious and ugly. and owing to the heat had
suffered some. but he promised to drive
quietly home and put the animal up.
Mr.. Calderwood consented to let the
matter rest if the man would allow him
to drive him home, which he did. The
officer did only his duty in causing the
arrest, and those who sought to obstruct
him deserve to be taught lesson.

GRANGBRS' DAY.
A Delightful Outing and Reunion at
Graham's Grove.

A Delightful Outing and Reunion at
Graham's Grove.
The Grangers' picnic at Graham's
Grove on Saturday last was great sue
cess, both socially and financially. Early
In the morning farmers and their
families and many city folk began to
wend their way toward the grounds, the
road leading from this city representing
perfect procession of vehicles of all de-
scriptions. The 1925 train also carried
out a large delegation, so that by IL
o'clock fully 2,5OJ people were on tne
grounds. One would judge from the
smiling faces of the farmers that Sacra-
mento County had experienced no hard
times and that rich harvest was III store
the coming season. If any had forenod-
ings of drought and ruined crops they
left them at home and attended tnelr an-
nual outing with determination 10 lay
aside all cares and not only ENJOY theln-
selves, but see that others did the same.
The day was delightful one 1or a Die
ME and the grove was in excellent coHdl-
ton.
The Second Infantry Band furnished
the music, and the dancing platform was
crowded throughout the day.
In the afternoon there were number
of foot races.
The boys race, under IA, was won by
Joe Harris.
Married woman's race, won by Mrs.
Charles McKinstry.
Young ladies' race, won by Miss
Emma Dalton
Free-for-all race, won by Ed. Dalton.
RECORD UNION race, for farmers over
90 years of age. G. w. Kennedy won
the first prize and j. Mckinley the
second.
The committee in charge of the picnic
| consisted of Joseph Sims, President; A.
NJ. Plummer, Treasurer; David Reese,
Secretary, and Messrs. Thomas McCon-
neil, j. Cornell and j.. Schelmyer, to
whom is due much for the orderly man
ner in which il was conducted.

One of the Dangers Attendant on Rid
ing Ont at Night.
Young ladies and gentlemen who like
to go buggy riding, minus chaperones,
should select the daytime, instead of the
dark and dangerous hours of night, when
the bold highwaymen and footpads ply
their calling. There are other and good
reasons, no doubt, why young women
should observe this rule, but the footpad
reason will suffice for the present.
About III o'clock on Saturday night a
young couple who had been enjoying a
ride down the road,n as the Riverside
turnpike is known, were returning to the
city when they were held up just outside
the southern limit of the metropolis Of
Northern California by four men.
Two of the quartet held the horse and
covered the occupants of the buggy with
their pistols while the latter were made
to alight. They were searched by the
other two footpads, who took what money
the couple had, but declined to be bur-
dened with their watches and jewelry
This portion of the work completed
the pleasure-seekers were told to get into
the buggy and drive on, which they did.
