In this country, where everybody reads

the glib-tongued agitator, with the heir

For Hoffman.

The contest for the Democratic
nomination for mayor of Indianapolis
is growing warmer every day, and the
interest in the struggle is extending
out over the state.
And this state wide interest is
proper, and if Democrats from out
side should offer q little friendly adj
vice they should not be accused OF
"butting in" Any action which ma
terially affects the welfare of the
party in Indianapolis also affects the
party all over the state. Fer in
stance, who will venture To assert that
the election of Mayor Shank four
years ago did not materially affect
the Republican party of Indiana? Or
who has so little knowledge Of politi
cal ramliications as To think that the
success Of a man backed by dis
reputable elements controlling the
Democratic party in indianapolis will
have no effect on the party at large?
We are all interested, and no loyal
Democrat in Indiana should consider
the outcome in Indianapolis as no
affair of his.
The leading candidates for the
nomination are Joseph E. Bell and
John w Hoffman. Bell is man of
considerable ability and has the back
ing of Thomas Tuggart and his pow
erful indianapolis machine: and also
the backing of the Crawford Fair
banks Terre Hante brewery interests
"a potent factor in indianapolis poll
tics.
Mr.. Hoffman was mayor Of the
city some years ago. He is good,
clean man and made q good ma yor.
So far as known here he has always
stood for clean politics and clean
methods in The conduct Of Ihe affairs
of the capital city. Aside from this

who disappeared from their homes in
Lewiston, about noon, Friday No trace
OF the girls could be found. either in
this city or Augusta. but from What
could be CLEANED from the girls as
seciates in their neighborhood. it is be-
feYed that they are in this city. for
they told friends they intended To come
here and search for work.
Noel Thirreau, father of one of the
missing girls, came here to help in the
the search. He could not speak Eng
lislI. He claims that neither of the run
away girls speaks other than French.
He could state no motive for their
leaving home, believing his daughter
to be contented with her surroundings
and the other girl, Elma Thirbege,
Win Sc mother is a widow, residing i'll
Heinzs alley. can give no motive for
her girls disappearance. Investigations
by tine Lewiston police in that city re-
vealed the fact that the girls had gone
ing the fares to different points along
the line.

was told that the runaways were be-

That is certainly small loss. II eV-
cry time YOU handle 81, 600 in a business
way you lose less than 81 through mis-
fortune, trickery or dishonesty, the
record looks pretty clean. The figures
indicate that the man who is habitual-
" dishonest does not survive in bust

Of the church. wove a very interesting.
convincing, impressive and practical
sermon. His comparisons of the sell

of Jesus Christ We're logical, scholar
1y and true. He told of the loyalty of
the veterans and cited battles where
bravery and loyalty had been the chief
asset and backbone of the armies con-

speaking, Mr.. Turner compared the

eousness of God: the helmet 10 the
mental understanding and the sword
to the spirit. Every available space in
the church was occupied.
