NO OPPOSITION
TO ELLIOTT IN
SIXTH DISTRICT
Opponent Withdraws from
Contest in Forthcoming
Primary.

The following has been submitted:
To the Republicans OF the Sixth Dis
trict:
|, the undersigned, having recently
announced myself as a Republican
candidate for Congress from the Sixth
Indiana District at the solicitation OF
numerous Republicans OF the District
and with the promise Of support OF a
goodly number Of voters OF each OF
the several counties comprising same,
hereby withdraw my name as such
candidate for the following reasons:
After carefully considering the mat.
ter of entering into the Congressional
race and believing that probably the
best interests of our country demand
that our present representative be not
required to leave his official duties in
Congress, and that the war work
which l, in my Official capacity, have
to take care of in the schools and
otherwise throughout the county be
not neglected, and recognizing that
the first great aim Of all should be TO
help in the great war problem that
confronts this nation, have decided
to Withdraw my candidacy against
Mr. Elliott, as my entrance into the
race at this time would necessitate
taking both his and my own time from
the patriotic work that each OF US is
expected to do. I am taking this &C
ton from a purely patriotic stand
point and ! will not be a party to
cause both my opponent and myself
to neglect our official duties to carry
on political campaign in the Sixth
District at this time.
Respectfully submitted,
CHAS. o. WILLIAMS.

LAUNDRY PRICES
TO Be ADVANCED

Richmond laundries generally next
Monday, April l, will increase their
charges 10 per cent.
This step is taken to meet the higher
cost of materials and is in line with
action taken, or proposed, by laundries
all over the country.
From figures supplied by all the
laundries on twelve items the increase
in cost of materials to the laundry
owner has been 1852 per cent. This
includes coal, nut and slack md mine
run. Taking these two items out of
consideration, the average advance on
ten is 100 per cent, divided as follows:

out that by great degree Of co-opera-

ing the desire of the government to les

were made the practice to send soiled
linen by the sa medriver who brings
clean linen.
While this seems a small matter to
one household, in the aggregate, it
becomes matter of Importance. The

with a little more education on the

HELPLESS CHINA A LESSON
Every Man, Woman and Child Should
Contribute to Success Of Third
Liberty Loan.

Within the last few months the ter
rible bubonic plague has been sweep
Ing over western China. Starting In
Mongolia, 1t crossed the great wall and,
With appalling speed, invaded province
after province. And China-great,
helpless China-is unable to care for
Its unfortunate people. Missionaries
and the Rockefeller institute have been
doing much to alleviate suffering, but
their efforts have been little enough to
stem the tide Of the dread disease.
China lacks the organization and the
Initiative to do much more than bow
before the inevitable.
There is q lesson for America at
this time in the conditions In China"
said a United States army medical Of
icer a few days ago. ''The United
States is at war. Food, guns, clothing
are needed for the soldiers, and ships
are necessary to carry them to the bat
.lefelds In Europe. To conduct this
enormous business of war, money Is
needed-billions in money. If the ma
ton does not show initiative and or
ganization, If every individual and
every community are not closely knit
to every other individual and every
other community and interest by a
common impulse, q common purpose to
defeat the enemy, America will fall In
this war as surely as China has failed
In her hopeless battle against the bu-
bonic plague.
every man, woman and child should
contribute to the limit toward the sue
cess of the third Liberty loan. There
must be no sectional feeling, no racial
hatreds, no ancient grudges, no po-
litical ambitions, no community inter-
ests or individual schemes to stand In
the way. If this nation Of more than
a hundred million souls stands together
as one, the government at Washington
will be provided with the money with
which to finance ourselves and our al
lies in this war against selfish and
autocratic power that plots our politi-
cal and commercial ruin as 1t plotted
and accomplished the ruin OF Belgium
and Serbia and northern France.
"a prominent politician once pro-
tested against the 'Chinafying Of the
United States Let the United States
Drove to itself and to the common foe
that there is nothing of China's help
| lessness in us. 1t can do so by acting
with q single purpose in this matter
Of world war for democracy"
