ANDERSON, Ind, Oct. 22.-The
city board of election commissioners
has written another chapter in this
city's turbulent political situation
by eliminating the Citizens ticket
which was placed in the field a
week ago when seven candidates
deserted the Republican party.
Candidates on the Citizens ticket
were voted back into the Republican
ranks following the resignation of
DR.. F. M. Williams, candidate for
mayor, who was left alone on the
G. o. P. slate as a result of the
bolt. The Republican and Citizens
tickets were in existence with the
same men as candidates until the
election board voted out the latter.
The campaign is now between the
Republican ticket, headed by AL
bert P. Priest for mayor, and the
Democratic, with Jesse H. Mellett
as mayoralty candidate.

Hazing isn't an exclusive college

Few recruits to the ranks of the

"Short-pantsing" the newcomer
is most popular, except to the

BY the bedside of every sleeping
fireman, rest his trousers, with
boots attached and suspenders
spread, so that, at one bound, the
fireman is half clothed and on his

Harry Branson of No. Is, is the

Fireman Windn1iller, as recruit

later, when his company was re-

met their exhausted compatriot

Jimmie Love, of the Broad Ripple

one winters night and jumped right
out again. His bed had been wired

placed under him. Before he could
