not the trouble. Our weakness is
the result Of our good nature, and
our good nature smacks of moral

The article referred to is devoted

is. we have been coddled so long in
prosperity and ease that we are los

"Bookwaiter's purposes and atten-

personal opinion. Bookwaiter won over

ganization in politics adverse TO him.
The last two years of Holtzman's ad-
ministration has satisfied Republicans
that Democratic control OF the city of
indianapolis is adverse TO good city
government. II there was any weak
ness in Bookwalter in the past II has
been his extreme individuality, an6

zone OF the strong things In favor OF
the election of Bookwalter is that not
