ALREADY the murmurs OF democratic
defeat are heard soughing through the
Indiana forests. The Fort Worth Ga
zette that never acknowledges a demo-
cratic disgruntlement save on unQues-
toned ground, says, concerning the
Hoosier situation:
Ex-senator McDonald's recent letter
is not pleasant reading for democrats In
other states who are making ready with
cheerful hearts for the grand contest
this fall and looking forward to demo-
cratic victory 1t shows that there is a
lack ofharmony in the democratic party
In Indiana that BODIES anything but a
favorable result in that rather doubtful
state. Senator McDonald's bitter utter
ances inspire apprehension that when
November comes it will find q
divided, pickering, wrangling, jeal-
GUS democracy In Indiana, IN
stead OF the strong, confident party Hen
bricks left there. The whole trouble
seems to grow out Ofthe rivalry between
ex-senator Mcdonald and Gov. Gray,
two very able men and sound democrats,
but both very ambitious and high
strung, and one, at least, rather jealous
OF the growing prestige OF the other.
Both are popular men and each has his
adherents, who partake Of the rivalry of
the leaders, and thus it Is that demo-
cratic affairs in Indiana are in anything
but healthy and promising shape"
The Gazette will find things less prom
Using as the canvass advances. The
handwriting on the wall grows palmer
every hour and there is no hope in the
situation for the discounted and dis
MAYED democracy.
