MT. Blaine talked over the matter with the President. and the latter clearly showed not only that it would be a wrong to the men ahead of him, but that prac- ticaily 1t would be objectionable. To this Mir. Blaine agreed Some days later. EhiiA hnsily engaged. the President was

 The departure of Governor JeIks for the West In search of health has left applicants and probable applicants for secretary or State at loss as to how to proceed. The candidates do moi know whether the Governor will make up his mind in the West and teIe- graph the appointment, whether he will delay 1t until he returns or whether he will leave it open so that Lieutenant Governor Cunningham may make the appointment.

Not content with repudiating nv
cowardly silence the national policies
which have been discussed in eyerv
Democratic state platform of the
past, the recent Democratic state

creation, when it said: THE Democ.
racy Of Indiana recommends the repeal
of the metropolitan police law. and ia.
vors the restoration to the cities of the
state of the right of local self-govern-
ment." The present metropolitan DO
lice law was passed by a Democratic
legislature at time when a Demo
cratic governor was in authority.
There were no compunctions then
about taking away the right of self
government" as this platform now de-
clares was done by The trainers of this
measure The whole truth is that this
law is Objectionable To Democratic

markable platform, Indiana Demo.
