A Great Republican
Meeting.

county, held at the New Armor!
Wednesday night of last week
was attended by large gather
ing of enthusiastic Republicans
At the banquet table were seated
three hundred and thirty people
while many Others dropped in la
ter on to hear the addresses by
the Clubs distinguished guests
who were Governor Willis, Hon.
Harry N. Daugherty, Hon. W.
L. Parmenter of Lima. O., and
Hon. o. E. Harrison of Colum-
bus, a former citizen of our town
and at one time ably represent
ing Oarke county in the State
Senate. Prosecuting Attorney
George Porter was toast-master
and ably filled this position. The
banquet was first on the pro-
gram, and was most elaborate
one, highly enjoyed by all par
ticipating in it. Following the
banquet came the speaking, the
speakers being introduced by Mr..
Porter in few well-chosen and
appropriate remarks, Governor
Willis being first on the program.
What this distinguished guest did
to his predecessor was a plenty,
as we'll as to other ''pennyroyal
politicians" over the state. And
he talked from the records, hav-
ing the facts and figures before
him, cleaned from a safe full of
them left in the governors Office
by the Cox administration and
which the Governor intends go,
ing through at his leisure and in
which he finds much pleasure and
amusement. He also had the rec
ords of the State Treasurer's Of
flee to refer TO and to back up his
statements. He simply showed
up Cox's complete failure to sub |
stantlate the charges he (Cox)
has been making of late against
the Willis administration. He
dwelt principally upon the Work |
mems compensation act, the pub |
lie highway department and tax
alton matters, showing conclus-
lively that the charges of Cox and
other pin head" politicians were
mere bluster and far without the
pale of facts of record. He was
frequently interrupted by enthus-
iastic and prolonged applause.
He demonstrated to the satisfac-
tion of all his hearers that the |
campaign pledges of the Repub- |
lican party had been kept, men
tioning especially the repeal of
the Warnes law and the restora-
tion of the taxing authority to
the people, and challenged Cox
or any others of the Cox party to
show wherein Republican cam
paign pledges had not been kept.
He dwelt but briefly on national
issues, confning his talk princi-
pally to state issues, but endorsed
protective tariff and severely
arraigned the Presidents war tax
in times of peace and his income
tax when we had no incomes.
He concluded his excellent talk
by saying, 1--WE are big enough
to protect American citizens
wherever they may be. Let us
re-dedicate the Republican party
and the Republic to the princi-

of prosperity and progress to the
nation"
The Governor was followed by
Hon. Harry M. Daugherty, can
didate for United States Senator
to succeed Hon. Theodore Z. Bur-
ton, and spoke in part as follows:
l hcve spent most of my life
IN the agricultural districts of the
state, / lived in a country in my
boyhood, and until my late man
hood, that was developed from
the black swamp. l know the
predominating interest in your
locality and have seen the mar
velous growth of your county in
business and agricultural pur-
suits, and the thrift productive
of both. What the agriculture
interests of the country want and
need and what they are entitled
to is liberal state and federal aid
for the Improvement of agricul-
tural interests and the construc.
ton of good roads. The expen-
diture of public money for the
maintenance of agricultural ex-
pertinent stations, the employ
ment Of county farm agents and
the propagation and distribution
of high-class seeds and plants, as
we'll as the prevention and cure
of disease in stock and cattle, is |
proper and justifiable
I congratulate the farmers of
Darke county on the fact that it |
is the banner corn county of the |
state, and the farmer in the coun-
ty that has an acre of ground |
that will produce $50 bushels of
corn will understand the import
ance and the profit of a method /
that will increase the production
of corn, tobacco or other products
of the farm.
The construction of good roads
not only furnishes a means of ex-
peditiously reaching the market
with the product OF the farm, but
they will add to the pleasure and
of farm life, bring the
city closer to the farm and be the
of building up civic cen
ters and developing social life
and make more wholesome and
attractive to the rising genera
tion the work in the meadow, the
forest and the field which, I am
sorry to say, in the last fifteen
years has been less attractive to
the youth than the allurlng lights
of the noisy city.
I congratulate the citizens of
your county that you propose
building a splendid paved road a.
cross your county marking the
trail of General MAD Anthony"
Wayne. The roads marking this
course should be made-main
roads-and the enterprise
that proposes to build this splen-
did monument to that hero of
many Indian battles, who con-
cluded in this city a lasting peace
that opened up the great rich and
fertile Northwest to settlement, |
should receive such aid from the
state of Ohio, that the roads of a
like character are receiving in
other parts Of the state.

preserve and protect the product
OF the workmen in the mills, the
capitalist in the counting house,
the farmer behind the plow, and
the consumer throughout tn e
broad land.
The greatest preparedness nec-
essary is that which will enable
US to meet the situation that will
be crowded upon US industrialIy
when the war ends; when the
sword is Sheathed, the cannon
silenced; when the submarine IS
sunk and the air craft comes to
earth again; when the lame and
the halt return from the trenches
and battlefelds to industrial pur-
suits in the unfortunate lands
now engaged in war, and are
compelled to meet the taxes and
charges against them, to build up
their private fortunes and again
put a roof over their heads, they
will be compelled to work in field
and factory cheaper than they
ever worked before, and they
will be compelled to send their
product to America, because, con-
sidering the exigencies of the sit
uation, we will have become the
money storehouse of the world.
Then is when we will need one
protection which no other plan
can afford, that is, the protection
afforded by a protective tariff
law, constructed on the lines for
which Mckinley stood and upon
which the government has been
founded and progressed.
I am in favor of a tariff COM
mission. The Republican party,
under a Republican president,
provided for a tariff commission. |
The Democratic party destroyed
it. They now speak up in favor |
Of a tariff commission. l agree
with them that a tariff commits |
sion is useful, if that commission |
is in sympathy with a protective
tariff plan, but I haye no interest |
Or faith in a tariff commission ap-
pointed by a Democratic presi-
dent whose sympathies are for
free trade. Their advocacy of a
tariff commission is a subterfuge,
and no beneficial results will come |
from the installation under a
Democratic administration of a
tariff commission predisposed to
free trade and prejudiced against
the protective tariff doctrine.
I want to see Republican ad-
at Washington in
stall a fair-minded tariff commits
sion that will gather facts upon
which tariff legislation can be en-
acted that will protect our indus
tries. our capital and labor, when
we are compelled to resist an in
vasion industrially as we inevita-
bly, will when the curtain falls
and the last battle is fought.
Mr.. Daugherty was followed
by Hon. w. L. Parmenter and

whom made short addresses, as
the hour was getting late, but
each was warmly applauded upon
their terse and to-the-point re-
marks upon local, state and ma
tional issues.

Even machine stitching. heretofore

unnecessary added rows. Everything
included in the details of their maxi
ing shows that the tailor has thought

of them hanging straight and others
ilaring slightly, and they are not longer
than ankle length. Collars are fea-
tured, and when made in cloth. velvet,
or fur are usually convertible.
An irreproachable tailored suit is
shown in the illustration. II might be
made in broadcloth, velours cloth or
"gloveskin." The front of the coat Is
in one piece with emplacements at
each side, of separate pieces. These
shape the waistline little, but coats
are vague fitting.

The three best-liked developments of
the fur neckpiece are the pelt Of the
fox with head, tell, and legs repre-
scented in almost their original shape),
the square cape, and the flat scarf.
Short-haired furs are selected for the
long, soft scarfs and many of the
square capes, although the latter are
made up in all the popular furs.
Fox Is in the ascendant and new
worlds, pcopled with foxes, would seem
to be required TO supply the demand
for this long, soft fur. But many
another pelt masquerades us fox with
such good effect that they frankly de-
clare themselves imitations--if anyone
really wants to know about 1t.
Skunk is more durable and rather
more costly than the average fox, and
makes very rich neckpieces and muffs.
II is harder fur. Wolf, coyote, and
Gpossum are all dyed and cleyerly ma
nlpulated for fur sets and fur band
lngs, and the muskrat and millions of
rabbits are furnishing pelts that are
transformed into rich-looking furs.
In spite of the search for new fur
bearing territories furs grow more and
more expensive, so that really good
skins should be well cared for. The

colored Vests With Suits,

trasting color and material to the tail

models from several of the Paris
houses. THIS vest shows when the
coat is opened. When the coat is
closed the suit looks like morning or
afternoon simple tailored suit. When
1t Is opened one glimpses the bright
color Of the satin, which is often
adorned with embroidery. These vests
are copied after Louis Nv and Louis

The long. loose sleeves emphasize the
departure from severe models already
mentioned. A narrow band of the ma
teral Of the suit confines their full
ness to form cuff, and is finished
with a single button. The double belt
ut back and front is featured on many
suits. The two belts ut the front
fasten at opposite ends and are fin
ished with buttons. This effect in fas.
tening reappears In the collar, which
is band of the goods with turnover
of velvet added.

chances are that they will 90 on in
creasing In value. Handsome furs need
not follow the whims of fashion and
change style with the incoming of new
modes. They are superior to these
fluctuations. Some furriers, however,
advise the use of cheaper pelts for
those who prefer style to quality, and
furriers are amazingly clever In trans
forming them into something new and
beautiful.
In the group Of fashionable fur
pieces shown here fox skin appears
mounted against satin lining, with a
slightly full border of the satin ex-
tending beyond the edge of the pelt.
The border outlines the head, but the
tail Is independent of II.

BUILDING
MATERIALS FOR A CULVERT
II Good Building Stone Abounds in To-
caiity It Would Be Advisable to
Use This Substance.

(By PAUL d. SARGENT. United States
Department of Public Roads)
Available material in the locality
where the work is being carried on
will generally determine the material
OF which culverts will be constructed.
For example, if we are in country
where good building stone abounds, 1t
would generally be advisable to use
this material for culverts.
If no stone is handy, but good gravel
may be secured, plain concrete, or re-
enforced concrete, may be found to be
the most economical material. In
some localities we shall have to resort
to the use Of pipes. My experience
has been that while good culvert
may be constructed by the use Of Wit.
rited tile, its use in most cases has
been a failure. This is due to lack Of
proper care in laying the pipe.
All culverts, Of whatever material,
should be carried to good foundation.
Generally speaking, would recon-
mend that the waterways of stone
culverts be paved. and that concrete
Culverts be built with concrete floor,
although this is not always necessary.
In any event the side walls should be
carried to a good, firm foundation, and
each end of the culvert should be pro-
vided with cutoff wall carried below
the frost to prevent undermining by
the water.
Pipe culverts should be laid on a
good, firm foundation. If the natural
soil does not provide this. a founda.
ton should be excavated from twelve
to fifteen inches below the bottom Of
the pipe and crushed stone or gravel
should be placed in the excavation
and the culvert well bedded on this
foundation. A head wall should be
provided at each end of the pipe Cul.
vert the same as for concrete or stone
culverts, to prevent the water from
getting under the culyert, or along the
side of it, and washing it out Cast
iron water pipe and corrugated metal,
If of good, pure iron, will be found to
make satisfactory culverts where a
small opening is necessary.
All culverts should be laid on a
grade and, above all things, they
should be provided with a good out
let to take the water away from them.
Sometimes this will necessitate the
Bogalusa enterprise. [volume] (Bogalusa, La.) 1914-1918, 1916-10-12

ROAD BUILDERS ISSUE A MAP
Tentative Routes Of 100000 Miles of
ArtcuIated Highways in United

The National Highways association,
that body Of enthusiastic lockers into

ing the tentative routes of 100000
miles Of articulated highways which 1t
thinks should network the United
States In an orderly manner.
This map is the expression Of one
of the main ideas Of the association,
namely, that trunk-line roads are the
first requisite-through routes leading
from somewhere to somewhere, and
that the feeder roads must naturally
follow the development and improve.
ment Of these main lines. The theory
is like that on which the great railroad
systems Of the country were built.
