eciaI DISPATCH to The Evening Star.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
INDIANAPOLIS Ind, June IA pre-
diet that Governor Durbin will be the re-
publican nominee for Vice President said
ex-ReLresentative George w. Steele today.
Major Steele is always frank and out
spoken. Sometimes he will not talk for
publication, but when he does speak he eX-
presses his honest thoughts.
In picking the governor for a winner he
has no disposition to throw cold water on
Senator Fairbanks boom, for he and the
senator are friends.
The Indiana delegation continued the
major has the utmost regard for Senator
Fairbanks as have republicans generally
throughout the state. 1t has stood ready to
do his bidding in he most minute particu-
lar In the absence of any expression from
the senator or his close friends, the dele
CATION no doubt will conclude that the SEN
ator does not want the vice presidential
nomination.
THAT is the view which certainly should
take If l were a member of the delegation
None of the senator's friends on or off
the delegation has any desire to thrust on
him a nomination that he does not want.
