cannot be noticed because OF coming from
a public speech instead of from you as
chairman of the State executive committee.

prieties in this matter. Please renew the
invitation in form so as TO comply in all
respects with Chairman Dicks notions OF

GOOD FUN FOR REPUBLICANS
SQUABBLING OF THE DISAFFECaED
is MUSIC IN THEIR EARS.
Senator Beveridgc VIII Make His
First Speech of the Campaign Oct.
3 i'm TomIinson Hall.

The managers of the Republican city
campaign are deriving no little satisfaction
over the division of sentiment among the
so-called anti-Bookwalter or independent
Republicans. The ants, while manifeSting
a great deal of activity and making a Wig
orous show of opposition to the administra-
ton, are unable to get together as to the
candidate they should support against
Mayor Bookwalter. They have held numer-
Gus meetings at which they attempted TO
decide on concerted action, but no such ac-
ton could be taken because, while a few of
the leaders of the movement insist on sup
porting Holtzman. the Democratic candi-
date, the larger element is equally insistent
that the independent votes should go to
Hitz. the Prohibition candidate.
The ants will open their headquarters
Monday, will hold a meeting Of the new
executive committee in the evening. and
will issue an appeal to the voters of the
city the following day. This address will
consist solely of an attack on Mayer Book
walter. The leaders had hoped to include
In this address an that the indie
pendent voters should support Hoffman,
but they did not dare take such a step at
this time. Their programme now is to wait
until a few days before the election and
then declare for the Democratic candidate,
on the grounds that there is no chance of
electing Hitz.
The Republican workers derive their sat
isfactlon from the position of the ants be-
cause they realize that little Roadway can
be made in a campaign that is one of oppo-
sition alone. Criticism and opposition will
bear little fruit, they believe, unless it is
supplemented By an aggressive Endorsement
OF one of the other candidates. In other
words, a voter cannot be against Mayor
BookWalter unless he is for Hoffman or
Hitz, and when his advisers leave him i'm
doubt as to which road he should take i'm
turning from Bookwalter the chances are
that ne will reconsider and decide TO keep
on in the old path.
DR.. Ridpath and the other leaders of the
ants realize the futility of the fight they
are making at present, but they are help
less and can only hope TO educate their fol-
lowers to believe in Hoffman while they
are at the same time endeavoring to draw
more voters from the Republican ticket.

LAPORTE, Ind, Sept. 1~9.-Something OF
a sensation was caused to-day by the an

that it could not afford higher salaries, but

that the school trustees have been accumu'

CONDITIONS NORMAL.
1.-THE conditions, my fellow-citizens, in
his country are normal. That is TO say,
they are not abnormal. There is no reason
why we should not nave long and con-
tinued periods of prosperity in this coun-
try, because our natural resources are be-
yond those of any nation in the world.
when 1 hear the men who are pretending
to lead the Democracy of Ohio to-day talk
about capturing the labor vote-weI, 1 smile.
Were it not in some phases of it a serious
question. / should even laugh. But there
is a serious side to il. my friends. There
is a serious side to it because If, through
ignorance of the true conditions or through
any undue excitement created during d
campaign, the laboring men OF this state
should be led away from the party ana
the principles which have done so much
for them, then it would be serious. because
that element which leads and dominates the
Democratic party to-day stands not Tor
tariff for revenue, but absolute free trade.
MI. Clarke qualities his position on the
tariff by saying hat he would take the
tariff entirely off of every article manufac-
tured by trusts. What does that mean /:
Every iron and steel industry in the United
States, everything connected with the metal
trades, with the cotton trades, and In Iact,
nearly all of our great Industries wouid
come within the scope of his proposition.
Why. is there any intelligent man among
the workingmen of my State who does not
know what would be the result OF tnat
policy? Absolute free trade, through all the
schedules of our tariff. would smut up %
per cent. of the industrial institutions OF
the United States until We could get TABOR
down to the price where we could compete
with Europe. That is what you are UP
against, boys.
mo, as TAR as your interests lie, in the
direction of national questions, let me re-
peat: the questions have not changed, the
principles have not changed, the results
nave not changed and you stand here to-
day Just exactly where you STOOD years
ago in this State when, under the leadership
of the gallant man who beleVed IN pro
tective policy and in safe money, you loi-
lowed him to the polls and year after year
registered your verdict that that was the
policy for the working classes OF TINS state

NEWLIN MAKES CHARGES.


Prohibition Chairman Charles E.. Newlin
came out with the charge yesterday that
the boycott is being used against Hitz and
those who have let it become known that
they will support the Prohibition candi-
date. Mr.. Newlin asserts that Hits bread
is being barred at the county Jail, that the
administration forces have threatened the
Vonnegut Hardware Company with a loss
of patronage because Mr.. Vonnegut's name
was one of those appended to the Hitz ad-
dress to the public. and that the editor of
the Recorder, one of the organs OF the col
ored people, had been told by prominent
politicians that he would be broken up il he
did not step supporting Hitz.
The Republican managers refuse to dig
nifty Mr.. Newlin's charges with a denial.
MIR. Newlin also gives out an announce
ment of the result of his thirty-day poll, in
which he claims that a large per cent. of
the precincts, SO far as canvassed, show
that HitZ has more votes committed to him
than either of the other candidates. but
that more than 80 per cent. of the voters
are noncommittal. He expects to get a large
part of the noncommittal vote for Hitz. Mr..
Newlin mentions several precincts in which
Hitz has more than double as many COM
mitted votes as both Mr.. and
Mr.. Holtzman together.
