Lest We Forget.


We, the living. owe a most sacred
obligation to those who have passed
over to the land beyond to cherish their
memory in loving remembrance. Amidst
the hurry and rush of life. all true
Americans should pause in silent trib-
ute to those who. in days gone by, have
fought and sacrificed in order that we
might have rgght to found nation
of the free and a home of the brave.
that our people might enjoy the bless
ing of peace and liberty. and that the
fruits Of democracy might be extended
to the whole world.
Memorial Day is strictly an American
holiday, or, rather day OF medita'
tion. when this great nation honors
its hero dead. and in our opinion we
would not be real blue-blooded Ameri-
can citizens, wives, mothers and daugh-
ters If we use any part of that day
of our time, thought or money for any
other purpose than the purpose for
which it is the honoring OF our
dead heroes and helping those who need
our assistance.
If you are a trueblooded American.
America needs you. II you have the
interest Of America at heart and want
to see America prosper. and have good
will among men, let us hesitate in our
mad rush after the almighty dollar and
spread Americanism all day May 80.
Let us close our places OF business
on that day, and in our most humble
way try to show to the world that we
as Americans haven't forgotten ouI
most sacred obligation to our dead he
roes.
Yours for better America.

A SENATE ASSET

While Democrats naturally rejoice
over the defeat Of the administrator
favorite. Senator Harry 8 New In tho
Indiana contest, the greatest
cause for rejoicing by Democrats il
found In the character Of the Demo
cratic nominee for Senate in that
state, former Governor Samuel NJ Raj
ston, as the opponent of former sena.
tor Beveridgc in the fall election.
Equally gratifying Is the fact that
the Democrats Of Indiana were 80 gem
orally favorable to Governor Ralston's
candidacy. which is no reflection what
ever upon his four competitors. who
received altogether half as many votes
as the Democratic nominee. The re-
suit simply shows that the Democra-
tic party In Indiana. by and large,
wanted Governor Ralston to represent
the state in the United States Senate.
Most significant Of all il that the
Democratic vote Increased 40 percent
over the primary vote Of two years
ago and the Republican vote increased
only 70 percent. Governor Ralston's
total vote about equals the total vote
cast fro Mr. Beveridgc and other can
didates together.
1t is interesting to note also that
the Democratic vote was relatively
larger In the rural districts than in
the cities. indicating that the farmer
who has been "gritting his teeth and
bidding his time" make his protest
against Republican ineficicncy and In
competency felt in November

self would constitute successful plat
