Thorpe sat down again In his broad
armed chair and resumed his drum

away. He counted over In his mind the
steps OF Carpenters progress TO

Carpenter had yet TO find the proper

Thorpe dropped his hands In surrender.
Then he saw the boy lay the two

dimly he perceived that the youth,
shamefaccdly, was holding something
bulky toward himself

car on a pile OF boxes and philosoph-

knew that sooner or later the man. pro-

through the car. and he wanted TO be
out of the way. The baggage man
proved friendly. so Thorpe chatted
with him till after bedtime. Then he
entered the smoking car and waited
patiently for morning.
At the last thought Thorpe decided
to send second message from the
next station. He did so. Ii read:

10000 QUAKER VOTES

Tom Taggart, national chairman of
the Democratic Committee is in New
York and of course has expressed him
self on the political outlook in Indi-
ana. In an interview Mr.. Taggart
said:
Everything indicates a steady
swing toward Judge Parker. In my
own state the condition Of the Demo-
cratic organization was never so good.
Gold Democrats, silver Democrats
and all sorts of Democrats are united
for the ticket and I am certain Indi-
ana will elect the Democratic electors
in November.
"In additio nto the fine condition
Of the party We have nominated the
strongest ticket we have ever had and
there isn't bit of dissatisfaction
anywhere. On the other hand, there
ere various discordant elements in the
Republican ranks, and President Roose
welt is unpopular among several class
es of voters. Take, for instance, the
Quakers in the state polling a vote Of
at least 10000. They are opposed to
Mr.. Roosevelt to a man almost be-
cause of something he put forth in his
earlier days about the Quakers not
making good soldiers"
The statement that the Quakers to
man are opposed to Mr.. Roosevelt
is certainly very far from the facts.
This is the story that was sprung
when Mr.. Roosevelt was candidate
for the vice presidency and it was
exploded at that time and the fallacy
of the charge shown up. But, of
course, it will be necessary to deny all
the charges in this campaign the same
as was done in the last. The Palla-
dunn is not in position to speak for
the Quakers over the state, but if the
state is to be judged by the local
Friends they will be almost unit for
Roosevelt. Tom Taggart may talk
about Democratic Quakers down in
New York, but it don't sound we'll in
Indiana where Republican Quakers
live.
