some farmer out in Oregon. He told
me that while working for this man
he was invited one time to speak
to farmers union county convention.
He rode 40 miles on a horse to at

Farmer r-labor---Jacob s. Coxey. i ist-labor--Verne L. Rey- holds.
 Communist--w William 2. Foster. Liberty-W. H. (Coin) Harvey. Most forecast have leaned to- ward victory for Roosevelt and election of democratic congress through republican spokesmen have stoutly maintained to the end that Q voters stampede will bring about the reelection of President Hoover.
 The political effect of the de- precision has overshadowed every thing else, even the perennial pro- hibition question. despite the fact thas for the first time both major party candidates have declared for some sort of change, in the pro- hibition laws. Forecasts point to a large increase in the anti-prohibi- ton laws. Forecasts point to large increase in the anti-prohibi- tion strength of congress, with pos sibly repeal majority in tbc
 Neither candidate however has given much prominence to the pro- hibition issue. The election has re- vo1ved closely around President Hoover and the administration handling of the depression.
 Two years ago, after a year of depression, the country wiped out the republican majority in the house. Republican candidates everywhere had difficulty. During the two years since, as the depres- sion became more acute, demo- crats sought to placethe blame for conditions on republican shoulders.
 Through their national commit tee headquarters in Washington they kept up 6 daily barrage of criticism against President Hoover and the republican management. This. in the opinion of many, had much to do with preparing the ground in advance of the nomina- ton of Roosevelt.
 The democratic candidate began his campaign with spectacular airplane flight to Chicago the day after he was nominated. He de- Hvered his acceptance speech be- fore the convention and soon set out on nation-wid speaking tour which has kept him on the move much Of the time. MT Hoover, taking a more deliberate course, made his acceptance speech in the traditional way in mid August and tken indicated that he would make three major campaign speeches. After Roosevelt's Pacific coast trip. republican information disclosed that he fight was to be harder than had been expected. Finally Presi- dent Hoover took to the stump and has travelled more and spoken more in this campaign than any president in years--this in spite of his natural aversion to speechmak- ing and public appearances.
 His dash across the country to Palo Alto to vote runs up his travel record equal to if not in excess of Roosevelt's.

DON'T QUOTE ME

Washington, Nov 8. (UP)-- Election day is always q trying day for the U. s. secret service. It must bc ready to jump one way or another and have it's guard ready to be flung around the president eIcct---therc to stay until he relin- QuisheS the office.
 This year the secret service had a task that was more trying than ever. Because of the unsettled times it was deemed advisable to strengthen the guard that accom- panied President Hoover to the west coast. This left scarcity of trained secret operatives in the cast. However, detail has been assigned to be near Franklin D. Roosevelt under orders to report to him # and when his election be- ccmesfc certain.
 Chief W. II. Moran said the men were from "the cream of the serv- ice.
 While most of the nations at- fention Is .centered on todays elec- tion, one group is concerned over the election eight years hence.
 It is the University of California Bryan club and It's slogan lB Wll- Ham Jennings Bryan, Jr, for 1940."
 The club proposed 0 democratic ticket this year of Governor Charles Bryan of Nebraska for president and William Jennings for vice-pres- ident. Now 1t is circulating postal cards saying:
 This is the start of the 1940 campaign. This Is search for a national leadership for the awak- ening. The world might have been better off had the U. s. followed old W. J. A Bryan will be presi- dent. William Jennings Bryan, Jr, for 1940."
 President Harding was on the point of taking an airplane ride after his election and the secret service squashed tho idea effective Iy, without MT Harding being any the wiser.

"PLEASE DON'T MAKE

they feel of pepper. The words, please don'q
make fuss" have no place in the vocabulary
of French married woman. Instead, when
her husband creates a scene over one small
spot on a raw pear which he has ordered for|
dessert to be cut into two-the pear not the
spot-so that he and his wife may eat half z
pear apiece, the wife. if she does not actually
use as much language as would be considered
a pretty long after-dinner speech by AL Smith |
makes up for it by glaring at the staff Of the
restaurant who are by this time gathered around
the table in groups of apologizing misery. TheI
result is that in France the restaurants giveI
as good food and as good service at as rea-
sonable a price as is possible in order to stal
off all arguments from French married nner
who consider no Sunday outing complete with
out a really bitter argument with the pro
prietors OF at least two restaurants.
In France, too, If married men had proceeded
on the principle of not making q fuss, would
there have been French Revolution? No
by Bastille full! Imagine, if you will, on tina
immortal July IA, 1889, a Frenchman sayini
to his wife, "Mommer, can't stomach tina
Marie Antoinette any longer, SO me and
couple of other fellers called Dupont are goin}
to pull down the Bastille." What do 20,
suppose would have happened If the wife had
said, Nov, please don't make q fuss!" Loui
the Twenty-fifth would still be issuing q lette
de cachet every 10 minutes committing some
pooy 10 the BaStlLe Tor parking against . dre
hydrant, but French husbands are not SO easily
discouraged from making a fuss, particularly
at those ornamental race tracks in the neigh |
borhood of Paris.
Gambling is conducted there ON an extremelyI
retail plan SO that it is possible for Q French|
married man to bet 20 cents on . horse, al
though the usual bet is 40 cents, and If one
horse wins by as little as q neck, the judges

Thousands-yes, hundreds of thousands-of
American homes are presided over by ladies
who not only accept their husbands pubic
indignities with philosophy. but express that
philosophy by saying to him, Now, please
don't make fuss!" OF course, no wife enjoys
seeing her husband, scalded by soup, over
charged for dinners or short-changed by wait
ers, but it is a tradition of the American home
that when husband protests about any OF
these outrages, he is simply making himself
ridiculous. Practically every wife believes that
her husband is unable to object to being i'm
posed upon without bringing confusion and
disgrace to those members Of his family who
may be eyewitnesses Of the protest, and the
consequence of this belief, so firmly rooted in
American tradition, is that a whole lot OF
people who cater to married men, such as dry
cleaners, tailors and other people who call at
your home and deliver all that remains Of your
pants, neckties and overcoats after they have
been chewed up by mechanical pressing ma
chimes with the aid Of mustard gas, or what
ever they use for dry cleaning, feel just as
confident that you will let bygones be bygones
as the waiter who adds into your bill the tele-
phone number of the restaurant, the street
number and the date of payment.
In France on the contrary, a married man
finds compensation for bad plumbing, lack of
heat in Winter and too much of 1t in Summer
by kicking about the cooking, the service and
the size of the bill in restaurants which we
would consider excellent and reasonable in
price, and the bigger argument he puts up in

Noble Johnson Seeks Sixth
District Nomination.

Bitter battle for the Republican
congressional nomination in the

with the filing of candidacy by No
bic johnson Of Terre Haute, who,
after serving as representative from
the old Fifth for several terms, was
defeated in the 1880 election by

Greencastle.
The 1891 geyymander put the in
cumbent Republican from the old
Ninth, Fred Purnell, in the new
Sixth. Purnell has filed for re-
nomination and Johnson's an
nouncement means bitter primary
fight.
Walter E. Stanton Of Gary, mem
Der fthe 1881 legislature, has reg
istered for the Democratic congress
sional nomination in the new First
district.
Five candidates for nomination
for state representative have filed.

Earl Cox filed for the Demo-
cratic nomination for circuit Judge
and George Holman, $40 West
