grievances. Mcdonald came in this
morning at the head of the
"lndiana Blaine club on a
special train at his own ex-
pense. On their arrival at the
West, Mcdonald himself proceeded to
hang a picture of Blaine alongside the
Harrison pictures outside the Indiana
headquarters. This exasperated the
Harrisonians beyond measure. Rhody
Shield lost control Of himself and
shouted to somebody to ''cut the rag
down." Others urged that Mcdonald
and his people be thrown out, and
were dared to make the first move in
that direction. Half dozen peo-
pie made a dash for the banner
but at this moment it was placed in
the hands Of a little girl who was
hoisted over the heads of the crowd
and so kept it out of the reach. The
Fort Wayne contingent had by this
time received reinforcements and
) hustling Shield into a corner they
shook their fists in his face and threat
ened him with personal violence. The
Harrison people realizing that big
mistake had been made raised shouts of
"peace," but the blood of the "antis''
was up and they refused to be modified,
declaring in language loud and strong
that it was now war to the knife. FL
t nally the banner was hung in triumph
5 over the headquarters of the anti Har-
5 risons within sight of the regular In
J diana room, and full Autographs of the
: man from Maine were hung up wher.
n ever picture of Harrison could be
t found.
