SENATOR FAIRBANKS AND THE VICE
PRESIDENCY.

Considering that Indiana is a pivotal
State in national elections, it is not sur
prising that Senator Fairbanks should be
favorably mentioned for Vice President.
Under the circumstances, it would DE
strange II he were not. He is a man of
recognized ability and high character, is
personally very popular in Indiana and
would add strength to the Republican ticket
in this State, no matter who might be at the
head Of 1t. He is a typical representative
of the conservative business element of
the Republican party, and he would preside
over the Senate with grace and dignity
But while II is natural that Senator Fair
banks should be favorably mentioned for
the Vice Presidency. the question Of his
acceptance Of the nomination is largely
matter for him to decide. 1t Is not ques-
ton for the Republicans Of any one State to
decide. He is not a man to be sidetracked
in anybody's interest. He is too large a
factor in national politics to be dealt with
in that way. There is only one power that
can force him. as a good Republican and
party man, to accept the nomination for
Vice President next year, and that is the
national Republican convention. It would
probably be possible for the convention to
put the matter in such way that Senator
Fairbanks would not feel at liberty to de-
cline the nomination. But it will be more
than six months till the convention meets,
and 1t is foolish to try and forecast its
action at the present time. The two main
factors in the decision of the question are
Senator Fairbanks himself and the next
national convention. 1t is time enough to
cross a bridge when one gets to it, not to
speak of compelling somebody else to
cross it.

THE DRIFT OF POLITICS.

Evidence is coming to light that Thomas
Taggart will not be permitted to run the
Democratic camp in Indiana without an
other contest for his prerogatives as boss
James Leroy Reach, city chairman, who
was recently forced to bow to Taggart's
superior political genius, is dying hard and
there indications that he is planning
a campaign to demonstrate that he is fan
from being dead one. Reach, 1t is gen.
orally believed, wants to be chairman OF
the Democratic State committee, but he
also wants TO be in a position where ht
will not have to take orders from anyone
in general and Taggart in particular. TIC
achieve this end he has two plans under
consideration. The first is to ally himself
temporarily with Taggart, secure the chair
manship with Taggart's assistance as 9
Taggart man and then, once at the heac
of the organization, cut loose from Taggart
and run the party affairs to suit himself
The second is to start out in an energetic
but exceedingly quiet campaign and cap
ture enough of the members of the State
committee to insure his election as chair
man whether or no Taggart assents.
