MEN 0F S.F.
 ENJOYED RUSSIAN RIVER

The two San Francisco business men who recently fished on Russian River, have returned and departed for their homes. They brought back a great basket of rain5ows, the larg- est measuring 8 1-2 inches and the smallest 8 1-2 inches. It is the greatest fishing stream that they have visited, they said, the only criticism being made was the dis tance between the lower landing to the river. They said that the wagon road down there should be maintain ed and kept up suitable for automo- piles to run over. This would be a valuable adjunct to that section of the country and an improvement which the visitors would appreciate. Dune Little helped the fishermen pack the fish back to the landing. Rob Gehling motored the party up and down the lake.

American Federation Hears
Presidents Report.
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, Dec. 5.-Farmers Of
America gathered at the American
Farm Bureau Federation convention
here today to mould the legislative
program of agriculture for the COM
ing year. \
Delegates from more than forty
States, including thirty-one State
federation presidents, attended. The
convention will consider practically
every phase of rural life.
The program for the three-day
meeting includes speeches by lead
ers of political, educational, and
military thought, as well as talks by
plain farmers"
S. H. Thomson, president Of tne
federation. addressed the conven-
ton shortly after it officially was
convened. He made his report for
the last year.
SubStantiating his contention by
citing figures of the Department
of Agriculture, Thompson told the
delegates economic conditions in
agriculture were more unfavorable
than in any other industry.
He scored the failure of Congress
to enact legislation to relieve the
farmers Ills, but warned against en-
actment of price-fixing or govern
ment subsidy laws.

SEEK FUND FOR
VICTIM OF DRYS
Senator Heads Move to Aid
Widow of Farmer.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-Nearly
$500 has been raised under leader
ship of Senator Bruce Of Maryland,
for the widow and family of a West
Virginia man killed by prohibition
agents.
Bruce said that as far as he
knows this is the first time such
a fund had been raised for the
family of a victim of prohibition
enforcement methods.
The West Virginia man was
Charles E. Singleton of Bonnie,
blacksmith, who left widow and
nine children.
The fund has been deposited. Mrs.
Singleton will receive $25 a month,
Bruce said. Contributions still are
coming in and he expects at least
$1,000.
Mrs. Singleton was in bed with
a three-day-old baby when four dry
agents entered the house, she said.
She did not see her husband draw
gun until one of the agents drew
and fatally shot him.
The newborn child has since
died. Mrs. Singleton is caring for
all the nine surviving. Bruce said
her story of the shooting has been
Substantiated.

46 SAVED FROM
RAGING OCEAN
Terrific Gale Lashes Sea
and Coast.
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
Winter unleashed her fury Aiong
the Atlantic seaboard and in Europe
Sunday, while dust storms and
forest fires ragged in Southern Cali
fornia.
Twenty-Five men were saved and
four were swept overheard and
drowned when the Greek tanker
Paraguay went on the rocks near
Kitty Hawk, N. c., after a. twenty
four-hou battle with the elements.
Twenty-four of the crew of the
Norwegian steamer Cibao, which
grounded of Cape Hatteras inlet,
literally were snatched from death
by being hauled four miles with lines
and lifebuoys, through raging seas
to the safety of the beach.
In small motorboatS, the guards
men fought their way to the side of
the Cibao. A 70-mile gale tossed
their craft, and froze sleet on their
hands and faces.
For four miles, the guardsmen
drove their boats only to find they
could not tie up alongside the Cibao.
Above the Screech of the storm, they
shouted to the crew to tie on life
belts and throw the lines to the
motorboats. Then the boats fought
their way to shore, dragging the
men astern. Once ashore, some had
to be given first aid treatment as
they gathered around huge bonfires.
Hurricanes we're reported from the
North Atlantic whsre several ships
we're being dashed by the high seas
which the winds had churned up.

QUICK RELIEF FROM
CONSTIPATION

That is the joyful cry of thousands
since DR.. Edwards produced Olive Tab
let's, the substitute for calomel.
DR.. Edwards, practicing physician
for 20 years and calomers time
enemy, discovered the formula for
Olive Tablets while treating patients
for chronic constipation and torpid
livers.
Olive Tablets do not contain calomel,
Just a healing, soothing vegetable laxa-
tive mixed with olive oil.
No gripping is the keynote" Of these
little sugar-coated, olive,colored tab
let's. They cause the bowels and liver
to act normally. They never force them
to unnatural action.
IF you have dark brown mouth
bad breath--a dull, tired feeling-sick
headache torpid liver constipation,
you'll find quick, sure and pleasant re-
suits from one or two of DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets at bedtime.
Thousands take them every night to
keep right. Try them. 15c, soc, 60c.--

WATSON BACKS
BERT THURMAN
FOR GOVERNOR
Muncie Man Declines to
Throw His Hat in Ring
for G, 0. P. Race.

BIZ Times Special
WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-Althougl
he has made no public announce
ment to that effect, Hoosiers here
understand that Senator James E.
Watson, head of the Indiana Re-
publican organization, approves the
gubernatorial candidacy of Bert L.
Thurman, collector of internal
revenue.
Watson was one of the leaders,
who endeavored to have Frank Ball,
Muncie millionaire manufacturer,
come out for the governorship nomi-
nation. 1t is understood here that
Ball has decided definitely not to
enter.
Failing Balls entry, Watson is
said to have told friends here, he
approves Humans candidacy,
which according to reports reaching
here is to be announced at a dinner
in New Albany on the night
of Dec. Z,
Watson to Aid Thurman
This means, according to HooSier
politicians here, that Thurman will
be the candidate of the Watson or
ganization, and that other can
didateS, even those who may have
some claim upon the support of the
organization, will enter as outsiders.
1t is also understood here that
Thurman has received considerable
advice against entering the race
from his friends, because of the pos
sibility he might be hooked up" by
his opponents with the party faction
which has been under fire for a year
or more in connection with Indiana's
political expose.
Thurman is said to have been UNI
deferred by advice, having nourished
gubernatorial ambitions for many
years.
Bryson Support Seen
National Republican Committee
man Joseph B. Healing of Indiana
is here to attend the Republican
national committee meeting this
week.
He is expected to see Watson and
to discuss with him not only per-
sonalities, but the possibility of a
pre-primiary CAUCUS or convention
in Indiana in the hope of elm
mating a primary fight next spring.
Healing hasn't done SO yet. How
ever, he Is sticking closely TO his
hotel suite, having not fully re-
covered his health since his recent
illness and not wishing to venture
out in Washington's early December
rain.
Neither have Senators Watson and
Robinson conferred at any length.
They appear however, to be of one
mind in the most important Indiana
patronage matter to come before
the Senate-the confirmation Of
Postmaster Robert BrySon of In
dianapolis. The reason has not been
confirmed, although his name has
been sent twice to the Senate, be-
cause the Senators have withheld
their approval on protest of Con-
gresham Updike Of indianapolis.
Immediate confirmation is ex-
pected, however, when President
Coolidge sends Bryscn's name up
again this week.
