building representing an investment OF Sl35,OOO,
The Times offers testimonial of its belief in Indianapolis
Not quite two years ago Roy W. Howard came back
to the city of his boyhood and purchased newspaper
That newspaper was The Indiana Daily Times.
Now The Times, it's name changed to The Indian
apolis Times, is member of the Scripps Howard group
of newspapers 1t is permanently established. AS a
member of the Scripps-HOWard organization = the
largest group of dalies published under general
management anywhere in the world-Ihe Times enjoys
advantage of the cooperative efforts of business
Germ which spends approximately $20,000000 annually
in the production Of interesting and enterprising
evening newspapers
Association with such an organization enables
The Times to bring to its readers features and
exclusive articles which could not be available otherwise
While The Times has as background the best and
highest class newspaper features produced in the
United States, service the cost of which would be
prohbitive to single newspaper, it State paper
and local paper that it makes its chief and
editorial appeal.
While Scripps Howard newspapers follow the same
general course in questions of national and inter-
national policy the widest latitude of action is left to
the individual editorial departments in the treatment
of State and local matters.
Under its present ownership The Times is abso-
lutey independent in politics.
The Times editors regard it as duty and privilege
to the people Of Indianapolis by presenting all the
news without fear, favor or censorship
A newspaper is voice that can be used for good

bad When it fights it goes in to win. It fights fair.

FARMERS URGED TO
ATTEND AGR. MEETING

Mr.. T. M. Williams, agricul-
tural agent of the Missouri
Pacific Railroad Co., chit the
nail squarely on the head"
when he said, in note to the
Telegraph editor this week,
1--WE believe the community a.
round Washington needs some
crops to help along with cot
ton" We not only need it, but
must have it. All farmers Of
the Washington vicinity should
meet Mr.. Williams and other
speakers when they come to
Washington Saturday after
noon, Oct. 18, at 1:30 o'clock,
to talk on the possibility and
opportunity this secti>p-s9aaFs
in the growing of tomatoes and
other market garden crops.
Mr.. Williams says:
Dear Mr.. Gold:
On Saturday, 1870 F. NJ Oc-
tober 18th, l, with some other
speakers, will be in Washing
ton for the purpose of taking
up the possibility and oppor-
tunity which Washington vi
cinity furnishes the growing of

chat court to decide promptly
on all cases that come before
it. With only five judges, it Is
impossible for the Supreme
Court to keep up with It's dock
ct although these judges work
harder than any other state Of
fcials.
81 personally know the jud-
ges Of the Supreme Court work
twelve to fifteen hours a day
and still their work is so greas
they are falling further be-
hind every week. Unless A
mendment No. 10 is. adopted,
the court will soon bef
years behind. That iSeans
that every law suit wille elras
along in the courts two or
three years. This condition
will put the people at the mer-
cy of the big corporations, for
no man can afford to spend
two or three years in 4aw-
suit.
"The adoption Of Amend
ment No. 10 will add two more
judges to the Supreme Court
and permit the court to work
in two divisions. The court
could then decide twice as ma.
ny cases every week as it does
now, and could catch up and
keep up with its work, and all
lawsuits would be speedily
disposed Of"

the Telegraph, Mr.. Terral,
Democratic nominee for gov

necessity. He says:
"The platform adopted by
the Democratic State Conven-
ton September 11th, recon-
mended the adoption of A
mendment No. 10 in the follow
ing language:
1--WE favor the adoption by
the people Of proposed amend
ment No. 10 to our state con-
stitution. The adoption Of this
amendment will relieve the
crowded condition of our Su
preme Court docket. Ever
since 1889, we have has five
Supreme Court judges. With
out amending our constitution,
we cannot have more than five.
In 1889 the population of our
state was only million. In
1889 we had only 13 circuit
judges and only one chancery
judge in Arkansas. Now we
have 21 circuit judges and IL
chance1y judges. In 1889 on
ly 335 cases were appealed to
our Supreme Court. Last year
779 cases were appealed to
that court. Yet the number of
judges in our Supreme Court
has never been increased since
1889. The adoption of Amend

TIcNARY-HAUCEN BILL
GOES INTO DISCARD
Haugen Disagrees with McNary as to
Necessity of Farm Measure.

Washington. Nov. 1.-THE McNary-
Haugen farm relief bill will not be
pressed for enactment at the next
session of congress, Senator McNary,
republican Of Oregon, and co-author
of the measure, said upon his return
to Washington today.
Senator McNary said he still be-
lieved in the bill as the fundamental
principle for legislation, but said he
felt the emergency it was designed to
meet had passed. The conditions of
distress among the farmers have been
largely relieved, he said, except for
the cattle raisers who could not be
assisted by the bill.
The senator said he does not be-
lieve the farmers salvation lies in CO.
operative marketing, which, he said,
can be used successfully only when ap.
applied to special products.

Nary ejpects to hold hearings this
winter on the Boulder dam and the
Columbia river reclamation projects.
but is doubtful whether legislation will
be passed soon for the development of
the properties. Appropriations for
these properties will meet strong OPP
position, he said, because they would
open large new farm areas which
would add to the surplus crops. He
predicted that no difficulty VIII be

sage of the second deficiency biz car

bill failed nj the last session.

BUFFALO ARE TOO
PLENTIFUL ON
MONTANA RANGE


Missoula, Nov. 11-Between 200 and
300 buffalo on the Montana national
bison range west of here must be slain
this fall. Frank Rose, TIE superin-
tendent, announces. A census last
summer showed 700 buffalo, 500 elk,
% mountain sheep and 100 deer on the
range, and an inspection of the grass
es convinced the superintendent that
the preserve was about 40 per cent
overstocked.
The sale Of buffalo to parks and
zoos is not large enough to bring the
herd down to the required size, and
so large number will be slaughtered
and sold on the meat market. Each
fall the herd is reduced in this manner,
but this year far greater number
than ever will be butchered.
The Montana buffalo herd is the
third largest in the world, the range
containing $4,000 acres.
