THE KING OF THE PUSH.
He Cuts a Pathetic Figure I'm the
Campaign.

Campaign.
Allen w. Clark, king Of all the push"
came up from Greensburg' yesterday to see
how the campaign was coming on, and did
not find things just exactly to his liking.
He talked around the Grand Hotel for an
hour or so and discovered that the cam
paign was tagging somewhat for the want
of funds. Unfortunately the propaganda
The push is engaged in has not yet pro-
gressed to that stage where people who
happen to be short of money can print"
what they want, and this shortage is prov
ing an embarrassment. He went up to see
the Governor about it, but they could think
of no way to swell the campaign fund un-
less Charles Cooper could be induced to
open his heart and contribute another So
to the good of the cause. In this emar-
gency there has been some talk of bring
ing to the front that celebrated silver
State committee of which Clark is the
head and using it for the purpose of col
lecting funds, but UP to date r. G. Bell,
of Fort Wayne, is the only member of this
justly famous organization that has con-
tributed anything, and the ether members
might feel some hestancy in asking for
contributions from others before they had
donated anything themselves.
Clark has been picturesque but rather
pathetic Inquire in this campaign. He went
daft on the silver question some years
AGO and last summer began deyotinp his
entire time and energies to propagating
the silver sentiment within the Democratic
party in Indiana He 1t was who forced
the "Maxinkuckee resolutions through the
Democratic Editorial Association a year
ago. Then he formed the s'Silver League
of Indiana " and president thereof car
ried on the campaign almost night and day,
care of itself. The newspaper business does
not take care of itself very well, and just
when Clark was at the zenith of his politi-
cal glory at the time of the SKATE conVen-
ton, the Shylocks winged down upon his
newspaper and he had not a little difficulty
in retaining control of it. Buzz in political
way he was right in it,. As king of all
the push he was in absolute control of the
State convention, and the way he went
the various committees in their work was
beautiful He would have liked wonder
fully well to have received the nominal
ton for Treasurer of State, but was too
proud to so after it. He very properly
thought it was due his dignity that the
nomination should come to him unsought.
But republics are ever ungrateful, and so
are conventions. Morgan Chambers bank
down at Greenfield was much more at
tractiva than all Clarks services to the
cause of silver, and the convention passed
him coldly by. His cause won, but he him
self was left out. IT has taken him good
while to learn that his mission in Demo-
cratic politics is ended and possibly he
has not learned it yet. But everybody else
has II don't see what room there is for
that fellow in this campaign" remarked
Grand last evening, "He don't seem to
know when he's dead"
And thus doth the multitude scott when
yrea fneSS falls.

LIQUOR LEAGUE REPORT.
Nicholson Law Has Driven 200 Sa-
looms Out of Business.

The executive committee of the state
LIQUOR League met yesterday afternoon
and heard the report of Secretary Callen,
which will be submitted to the meeting of
the league Sept. II. The report shows
that seven hundred saloons have been driv-
en- out of existence by the Nicholson law
and claims, on the other hand, that the
manufacture of intoxicants in the State has
increased as has also the important ton of
liquors. Mr.. Callen draws from this that
the law is being evaded by persons who
are selling without liquor licenses. He
points out that by the reduction in the
number of saloons the school fund has been
materially crippled and some counties have
been obliged to shorten the school term.
The report concludes from this that it
would be better to allow saloons to run
openly and pay a fair license than to legis-
late them out of business when the legis-
lation did not serve as a stop to the sale
of LIQUOR.

Sound Money In Kentucky,

Walter Evans, Republican Congress
man from the Louisville district, in
the city yesterday on his way to Chicago.
Mr.. Evans is a candidate for reelection
this year and has an easy thing of it..
Our district" said he, will go overwhelm-
ingly for Mckinley and the whole Repub-
ncan ticket AS to the complexion of the
State. that is yet an unsolved problem. If
the Palmer and Buckner ticket polls as
many as 30 900 votes Kentucky will be for
sound money easily, or If 1t polls as many
as $4,000 the State will be reasonably sure
we cannot tell as yet just what the cam
paign will develop"

DR.. LIGHTS OIL WELL.
Claimed that 1t Will Yield over Fifty
Barrels Day.

Dr. r. c. Light of Broad Ripple, has
gone to New York in the interest of his
oil find which occurred day before yester-
day. In drilling for natural gas in the
neighborhood of Broad Ripple it has been
discovered that the territory is probably a
rich oil field. Several wells have yielded a
flow of gas when first drilled, but they soon
filled with water or, as is now believed
with oil. The verfication came when the
latest well sunk by DIR. Light filled with
OIL though the pressure of gas was so weak
that the oil will not out and has to
be pumped. 1t is believed the capacity of
the we'll Will be one hundred barrels day
Expert oil men have examined the field
since DIR. Lights find and land everywhere
in the neighborhood has been leased. 1t is
said several companies viii prospect for
OIL confident that the field will become an
imDortant one.

FRANKLIN Landers, one of the king bees
among the free-silyer Democracy, was
asked yesterday afternoon whether he had
