The statement that Stone and
Goebel were in combine, reported
ly denounced as untrue by both Of
them, has been fathered by General
Hardin, who stated in his Munford-
vile speech Saturday that "com-
bination of candidates had been
formed to 'defeat the will of the
people. He also had good deal
to say about the machine, evident
ly referring to the Democratic organ
ization of the state. The only ex-
amples of machine politics so far
developed have been in Louisville,
wheae committeeman Jno. l.. Dun
lap has prostituted his position
to the partisan purposes OF Gen.
Hardin himself, by turning out of
his position every precinct CON-
mitteeman suspected Of friendship
for Goebel. There is other evil
dence that machine politics is in
contemplation by friends of Gen.
Hardin, not only to ''defeat the will
of the people" but to override the
action of the Executive Committee
itself, for purposes that may be de-
veloped later.
