Indianapolis, Under Potato Selling Mayor, May
Smash Food Trust By City Acting as Middlemen

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Oct. 10.
This city Is going after the foo
trust hard. s. l.. Shank, Indian
Spolis's fighting mayor. had no
sooner sold mis- first carload of 20.
tatoes to smash the potato corner
than plans were set afoot to have
the city go into the corner-smash-
Ing business.
City money will be used In
emashing corners If au ordinance
drafted by Shank goes through.
Shank's plan is To create a new
city office - purchasing market
agent. He will be the market
masters assistant. 1t will be his
duty to keep posted on prices OF
produce and when the commission
ne will buy produce on behalf of
the city and sell it at a reasOna-
5 BILE profit, or at cost.
The people Of Indianapolis dc
not care a rap what socialistl5
tendency this may enbody--they
demand relief. And If this coun-
oil fails to put through the may
or's scheme, which Is unlikely, Il
new council will be elected.
Indianapolis is a unit with the
mayor. The SHANK Potato
wagon was mobbed. Three extra
carloads were ordered ut rs centa
by people VINO couldn't get near
the wagon. The mayor immediate
1y ordered the potatoes and unles;
commission men come down in
price he will order apples, peaches
celery, etc.
The market place here had got
to be a joke like it has in most
cities. The commission men ran
1t. When bona-fido farmer APP
peared, the commission men
bought him out, took his stand
and jerked up prices. When a
farmer brought a wagon load of
produce to town he couldn't sell
1t, because he vas tod the mar
ket was quilted.
Food Wasted
Within 20 miles of Indianapolis
tons of peaches, apples and pears
remain unpicked on the trees and
rotting on the ground. In Mich
tgan there are $4,000 to 10000
acres of celery that may be bought
at one-twelfth the price demanded
here.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

BY local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There Is only one way TO cure deafness
and that Is by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an infiamed con-
dition OF the mucous lining OF the Eus-
tachian tube. When this tube Is in
famed, you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing. and when il is en-
tirely closed, deafness Is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out OF ten
are caused by catarrh, which is moth
ing but an infiamed coalition OF the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case OF deafness (caused by
Catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.
