Evanston, Ills. Having formally
accepted the Republican nomination
for vice president, Charles G. Dawes
entered actively into the party's ma
tional campaign today with his de-
parture for Maine to deliver an ad-
dress Saturday at Augusta.
The Augusta address is the only one
listed for Mr.. Dawes on the trip un-
dertaken today and he will return to
his home here early next week and
then proceed to Lincoln, Neb., for an
other speech on August 20. His first
stumping tour will begin soon after
ward.
Formal notification of his selection
as President Coolidge's running mate
was given Mr. Dawes at last nights
ceremonies held on the lawn of his
home here with an audience declared
by Republican leaders to have been
one of the largest ever gathered at
any political meeting in the vicinity
of Chicago.
The big audience, extending in an
almost solid mass from the Dawes
home to Lake Michigan, was compos-
ed of the leaders of the Republican
party of delegations from number
of middle western cities and towns,
and of the neighbors of the nominee.
Speaking, to this audience and indi-
rectly to the countrys voters, Mr..
Dawes assaulted the La Toilette indie
pendent candidacy as ''a mobilization
of extreme radicalism" declared the
real contest of the campaign to be be-
tween the progressive conservatism"
of the Republican party and the sun
tried and dangerous radicalism' OF
the La Toilette movement, and defend
the course of the Harding and Cool
idge administrations in foreign af-
fairs
Although giving the credit to Pres
ident, Coolidge and Secretary Hughes,
Mr.. Dawes predicted that accordance
of the Preparations plan worked out
under his direction meant peace and
prosperity for Europe, and saving of
the United States from inevitable ag-
ricultural and industrial depression.
The nominee after defining the po-
sition of the Republican party as one
of the progressive conservatism and
that of the La Toilette independent
candidacy as one of extreme radical
ism, declared the Democratic party
stood in between and instead of re
! cruiting itself from the two battle
lines, will suffer only the fate which
befalls those who try straddle in a
real fight"
Mr.. Dawes spoke in response to the
formal notification address delivered
by A. w. Jefferis, former representa-
tive from Nebraska, and chairman OF
the official notification committee
who likewise attacked "the man from
| Wisconsin," whom he said had thrown
/ off call pretense of republicanism and
has run away from the home where
for forty years he has been fed and
sheltered, and has finally eloped with
the Socialist party"

Retail merchants have had their
difficulties with checks passed upon
them which have proved forged, fraud
ulent or passed without funds, and
they have learned to look with wary
and weather-beaten eye upon any slip
of paper purporting to be check
which is handed them by stranger.
But postal money order is diff
ferent. Obviously there cannot be a
money order made out without funds
in the bank for there is Uncle Sam
with his pockets bluging with green
backs behind the counter.
However, sDlaeone ear steal the
money order blanks, and in case just
reported to the police this is what
happened.
Saturday night young man, look
ing like the type that fancies guns
and fishing tackle, came into the
Dewey Hardware store and purchased
a .3S Smith and Wesson gun, special,
and box of shells. The bill for the
same amounted to $3.50. He present
ed money order for $75 which was
cashed by clerk who waited upon him,
and he was given the remainder of
&42.40.
The money order was turned in for
collection on Monday with other
orders and checks but it was not un-
til late Tuesday afternoon, G. A. Pope
of the Dewey Hardware company
learned that it was not collectable.
The money order for SIS had been
made payable to Charles Thompkins,
Jr.. at Kenosha, and Charles Thomp-
kins, senior of Indianapolis, was
ostensibly the one from whom the
one from whom the order was re-
ceived.
The matter was reported to the
police and federal inspectors. Mr..
Pope recalled that the man who had
purchased the gun and cashed the
money order was a young fellow about
twenty-one years of age, dark haired,
with fair complexion. He was we'll
dressed, wore sport suit and cap,
and a grey sweather with rolled
down collar.
According to the post office, there
was no record of such a money order
having been passed through from Ind
annapolis The money order blanks,
it is alleged were stolen, and one Of
these stolen blanks used in passing
the worthless order upon the hard
ware company.

Bones of Man With
Loaded Rifle Found

The bones of man, scattered over
the ground around the rusty remains
of a rifle of the sos period, which
still had the hammer cooked and an
unexploded shell intact in the bar
rel, was found recently by a crew of
workmen employed building a trail in
the mountainous section near Pleas
ant Valley, about forty miles south
west of here.
The theory advanced is that the
bones are of one of the participants
in the widely-famous Graham-Tukes-
bury feud, who had died after being
shot by some feudist.
The Graham -Tukesbury feud was
one of the bloodiest feuds ever known

The Indians dance to express various
feelings. Their more austere cere-
monials are prayers for rain, health
and happiness, while the joy of vic
