TALKS AGAINST AUTO
FOR RURAL ROUTES

EATON, O., Aug. 31.-An interest
ing meeting of Preble County Rural
Letter Carriers association was held
Saturday evening in the new state ar
mory Judge V. V. Brumbaugh made
talk in which he told how the estab-
lishment Of rural delivery had bene-
fitted the farmer and made for the i'm
provement of roads. BY having daily
papers brought to their doors each day
farmers were made more intelligent
and otherwise benefited, according to
Mr.. Brumbaugh. Postmaster Gale told
Of the work Of the carriers. J. Albert
Gardner, an Eaton carrier, made a
short talk and dwelt in particular on
the efficient service and cheerfulness
with which carriers executed their
work Earl Kinsey of Eaton, secre-
tary Of the association, read a paper
entitled. "Motorpower Against the
Horse" Kinsey is carrier on an Ea-
ton route and some few months ago
inaugurated the use of an automobile.
He has had good service from the ma
chine. and maintained that it was
cheaper to use than a horse. M. B.
Fry, Camden carrier, discontinued the
use of an auto and went back to the
horse, and he presented arguments
against motorpower.

sOnal Liberty.

HAMMOND, Ind, Aug. 31.-That the
removal Of all screens from saloons
and an effort to gain greater personal
liberty were the aims Of the German

personal liberty under the laws of In
diana at the eleventh annual state con-
vention of the German-American Ma
tional Alliance in session here.

ance OF treating.

 Billy Nolan, who is probably as CTS in the world, through his handling of Battling Nelson and Willie .Ritchje, has decided to once more take up the game. Nolan has been credited with being one of the shrewdest managers ever developed on the Pacific coast. He certainly made a barrel of money for Nelson and also for Ritchie. but in the case of the latter they could not agree upon certain things and as a result, parted. However. Nolan, who owns a big ranch near San Francisco, could not keep away from the game for any length of time and in a let ter the ring and pit a couple or young has made up his mind to again en- ter the ring and pitt a couple of young boxers whom. he thinks will develop into champions One is a lightweight and the other a niddIeweiglt. He 1n5 tends to start out this fall in search of new worlds to conquer, and if sue cess crowns his efforts in this coun- try, may decide later on, providing the big war across the pond is over, to make a tour of the world Billy de- clines to give out the names or ms proteges at the present time lie says he has them under cover and will soon be ready to do business.
