senator. stopped off at New York Just
TO have friendly chat" with William
g McAdoo. former secretary OF the
treasury, is being regarded as a very
amusing episode by those who know
something Of the inside workings OF
democratic politics in Indiana
Last week a dispatch from New YORK
stated that Mr. AIcAdoo had blue ren-
ciled Indiana fiom his itinerary when
he started his stumping for the dem
Ocratic cause. The dispatch said that
it was believed that MI. McAdoo was
going to slight Indiana because Of his
opposition to the French Lick boss.
About the time this Information be-
came public 1t happened that Mr. Tag
CART was returning from his summer
home in Massachusetts. After the
TaggarS stopover at New York and the
friendly chat with the former secre-
tary the word cave over the wire that
il wass all wrong about McAdoc's in
tcntions of skipping over Indiana The
word is going the rounds in the Hoos-
Ter capital that it was Mr. Taggart's
pleas for harmony that prevailed upon
aIr. McAdoo to make speeches for two
days In Indiana.
1t Is known that the Democratic
state committee has been active for
some time to get Mr. McAdoo to talk
in the state. The CHIEF reason for
placing SO much Importance on the
AcAdoo visit is the fact that very
large group OF Democratic Hoosfers
were sorely disappointed when the
former secretary failed to get the nom

The Hemale senate has adjourned

that he may call an extra session for
ten days, at any time as there are
bills three feet high on the table that
should be passed or rejected and il
some of them are passed there will be
bond issue to build larger Jail in
Lafayette. One of the bills is to
make it a fine of $50 and 8 months in
our jail for anyone to gossip over the
phone more than 10 minutes at time
another bill is to make it fine of
$500 and years in our Jail for any,
one that sticks their nose in other peo-
pies business, another bill is that any
one shall be hung by the neck till he
is dead if you can find tree tall
enough to get his feet off the ground,

anyone.
The reporter agrees with the one
that answered the Senators letter on
Christianity except in few things
Now brother or sister, whoever you
may be, we hope you will come to
