GILLIAN IN ELkHART.

A Richmond man writes from Elk
hart, Ind, where a Chautauqua is
going on, that Strickland Gillian,
formerly of this town and city editor
of the Richmond Palladium, has
achieved wonderful success in his
work. At Elkhart he spoke to over two
thousand people for two hours-during
which time he received loud bursts of
applause and laughter together with
spell bound attention. This was fol-
lowed by wild applause. Gillian has
improved tremendously in his work
and now stands at the very. tip top
of the Chautauqua field. Too often
man is without honor in his own
country" but we are confident that
Gillian will have a large and enthu
siastic audience in Richmond where he
is tremendously popular.

Improvement among the brewing and

gun a reform of their own. II they
had begun sooner they might have
saved themselves some little hard
ship. 1t Is not only hard on them,
but on the sane and temperate man
who occasionally likes an innocuos
glass OF beer; but the weaker element
must be defended against itself and if
the saloon will not do 1t the commun-
ity must.
the republican party has allied itself
ON the right side. The side which
gives a chance for the wholesomeness
of local conditions while not de stroy-
ing the privileges of those who can
take care of themselves. The party
has accomplished much in the past
and it now stands committed to the
two things which will eliminate the
vicious element: t. e. the high license
and the county option. These two
things we believe will do more to help
the state to a sane position on the
subject than will prohibition. The
democratic party is so hopelessly en-
tangled with the Taggart-Fairbanks-
Lieber combination that any effort to-
ward a wholesome condition of affairs
Is impossible. The better element,
then, which wants elimination of the
dive and the low saloon must vote the
republican ticket wherever they can

lican party on this question fearlessly

OLIVER PERRY MORTON,

Eighty-three years ago, that is, on
the fourth of August. 1929, there was
born in the county of Wayne near
Richmond, boy who lived TO be the
greatest Of the War Governors" an
able man during the time of the re-
construction, who did the country en-.
inent service in the senate at the time
of the panic of 1878. He was on the
electoral commission which straigh-
tened out the Tilden-Hayes contested
election. Moreover had he not been
afflicted with terrible infirmities there
is every reason to believe he would
have been president.
The country owes him a debt OF
gratitude second to none except Lin.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

the result. and unless the infiamma-

no other man OF his day could have
done-kept Indiana (and with it Ken
tucky) in the union. 1t is well
known fact that had Indiana seeded

task doubly hard. Thus the country

Chief Bailey states that there has
been no disposition of the case of Val

recently arrested for mistreating the
members of his family. 1t is probable
that no action will be brought against
the foreigner and that he will be CIV

Kellner, member Of the local Polish
colony, states that but few of the
Poles have any sympathy with Ban

try is not true. Kellner says Banko-
wski owned a grocery there and made
good money.

THE WAVE OF PROHIBITION.

There Is no denying the fact that a
wave Of prohibition has swept the
country from North to South and from
East to West. We are not disposed
to take the result as the work either
Of the prohibition party, nor yet, Of
It's rival the Anti-Saloon league. In
many cases both parties or rather Or
ganizations have not been the means
Of what legislation has been accom-
plished, but have unfortunately unwit-
tingly failed in what they might have
accomplished by gentler methods,
than they employed.
We regard the prohibition wave in
the south to be what it's authors in
tended 1t to be-the protection Of the
white woman and the lettering OF the
condition OF the negro and poor white.
We regard the wave in the north as
the result Of the fight against the VIC
ious element which frequents the low
saloon. We see in it the elimination
Of the ward healer" and the dislike
Of the better class OF citizens to have
the liquor element enter into the poll.
tics through the side door on Sunday.
We dare say that what the majority
Of the voters wanted, was not the to.
tai demolition of the business, but a
means of lettering conditions, in
which freedom had been abused by
the saloon interests. There is many a
man who will drink now and then who
has voted for prohibition to rout the
dive and low resort which has beer
fostered by the Interests" And who
does not recall the fact that the yer,
men who fought the low gin mill il
the south which was frequented b,
the lowest and most depraved Of the
blacks and whites, were accustomed

but itself and the vicious element tina

A REPUBLICAN CONGRESS.

While all this presidential talk is
going on, let us not forget the i'm
portance Of republican congress. If
Taft Is elected he will need a republi-
can house to carry out the program
as enunciated in the platform and in
his speech of notification. If, as seems
impossible, one w. J. B. is elected it
will be all the more important to
have an overwhelming majority in tie
house to aid the senate in keeping
wild and disastrous policies in check.
Let us be prepared for any contingent
cy. Let us not avoid looking any re-
suit squarely in the face.
Any man who wants business de-
stroyed by passionate and emotional
legislation against corporations be-
cause they are corporations, whether
they be peaceable corporations mind
ing their own business; or trusts will
fully violating the statute on tech
nicalities-must vote the democratic
ticket. But the man who contends that
the present system must be amended,
SO that the evils be reduced to a min
imum must vote the republican ticket
to insure a healthy continuation OF
businesses. More than that the tariff
we are all agreed with Taft must be
amended, but 1t is by far better to
amend than to swing to the extreme
of free trade as announced in the Den
yer document. II the democrats are
to abide by their folly If they get a
chance, we shall soon see the req, hard
times, and not the passing furry of
| too much frenzied finance. We shall
see the hard times in which there
will be no work for men because of
the strangulation of business by the
wild men who would play with ideas
rather than laboring with realities.
That is why we must have a repub-
