 Governor Coolidge got 674 votes to l4b for Senator Lenroot and 6S for Governor Allen of Kansas. Several others got scat tering support without being placed for mally in nomination. The result was greeted with another emonstration, and there was renewed cheering few min utes later when the tired delegates were told that their work was done. It was early evening by the time adjournment was reached but before midnight hun dreds had checked out and were on their way.

 The convention adopted resolution directing the national committee to formulate some new rule for repre- sentation which would eliminate the troublesome situation prevailing in the southern states. It is in accord with the plan of cutting down representa- tion.
 On motion of Mir. Hert of Kentucky, Senator Lodge was appointed chair man of the committee to notify Senator Harding of his nomination for Presi- dent and William Allen White of Kan sas chairman of the committee to noti- fly Governor Coolidge of his nomination as vice president.

HIGH COSTS OF JANITORS

In 1918. according to the State Board OF
Accounts report of May &c, 1919, the Re-
publican machine spent s1S,52ToS of the
taxpayers money in employing janitors
for the courthouse. For the year end
ing May 81, 1920, the sum of $1,000 was
paid out for janitor service for the Board
of Trade building in Indianapolis. This
building contains 210 rooms.
In this report the State Board of Ac-
counts says:
'An analysis Of the payment of the
salaries included in the foregoing tabu-
lation discloses the fact that the Repub-
lican pay roll for janitors was $3.50 per
month until two or three months prior
to the primary election when it was
increased TO $500 per month, then imme-
diately dropped after said primary to

S40o, where 1t remained for the remainder
of the year.
"The total cost Of janitors and other
employees as shown above seems to be
exceedingly high in proportion to the
size and general condition of the build
ing and if this cost is to remain the
standard, certainly the taxpayers Of
Marion County are entitled to excellent
service"
This is one of the reasons why our
taxes In this county TIRE too high. II an
amount in excess Of $4,000 Is being paid
yearly to perfect a Republican organ
izatlsa In this county under the gulso
of janitor service for the courthouse 1t
must be stopped, and, If i am elected

taxpayers money is not spent In this
high-handed manner without an inves-
tigation by the office of the prosecutor.

HOROSCOPE
FRIDAY. SEPT. "a.
THE stars incline. but do not compel.

The early hours of this day, which is
most fortunate in its sway, are dom
mated by Neptune, Uranus and the Sun,
all In evil aspect Later. Jupiter and
Venus rule strongly for the good for
tune Of men and women.
1t is not a favorable sway for making
journeys, especially those that have for
their object the forwarding of personal
ambitions or business enterprises.
The aspects for this early autumn
seem invariably to foreshadow a most
unsettled state Of the public mind, in
which both Neptune and Uranus have the
most disturbing effect.
There Is a forbidding sign for persons
in places of power. They may find
their plans thwarted and their support
ers disIoyaI.
1t is not a lucky day for applying for
positions, for seeking promotions or for
promoting any personal additions.
This should be a day most beneficial
for theaters and all who play in them,
making especially for large financial re-
turns rather than artistic success.
Hotels and restaurants still have the
most prosperous outlook. according to
astrology, but they win seek to con-
form more to home conditions, astrol-
ogers prophesy.
1t is prognosticated that many jur-
lists and literary folk viii end their
careers before the dawnIng OF the new
year. This prophecy applies to Great
Britain as well as the United States.
Distinguished visitors to this country
from Asia. as well as Europe, are to be
entertained in the winter and spring.
Persons whose birthdate it is may ex-
pect a happy year, for both financial and
domestic affairs should be satisfactory.
Children born on this day probably
viii be high-strung and alert, but pros
porous, because Of good luck rather than
hard work.
