was the most striking feature OF the
election. The latest unofficial returns
complete give the Democratic party
eleven members and the Republicans
ewo. This Is a gain OF seven members
for the Democrats. the former repreS
sentation being nine Republicans and
four Democratic members. Taft car
red the state for president, according
70 Incomplete returns. by about 5000.
Thomas r. Marshall and the entire
Democrat state ticket are probably
elected by a plurality around 1900.
The state legislature Is probably Demo
cratic, which means that a successor
TO Senator Hemenway will be chosen.
In this connection the name OF John
w. Kern is mentioned. Republican
State Chairman Goodrich admitted
that the Republicans lack two votes
OF having a majority OF the members
on joint ballot in the legislature. They
had been able 10 count seventy-four
members OF the senate and the house
and were wondering where they were
going 20 get the two additional votes
necessary 20 give them control.
indianapolis, Nov. 5.-COmplete re-
turns on the legislature show that the
Democrats Will have a majority OF
eight on joint ballot. This will insure
the election OF a Democratic United
States senator TO succeed James A.
Hemenway. The Democratic leaders in
this city say John w. Kern will be the
party candidate for the United States
senate, and that no other name will be
presented TO the legislative caucus.

COMMITTEEMAN TAG
CART.

Thomas Taggart, Democratic ma
tional committeeman from Indiana, has
been made an issue in this presidential
campaign by certain persons who have
received favors at his hands, and 9TH
ers who do not know the gentleman
except by hearsay. There was no rea-
son for bringing him forward in this
light unless in the hope of damaging
Mr.. Bryan's chances with that class of
people who vote blindly and unthink-
ingH. Inasmuch as he is made target
politically and personally it may be
well to remind the people of this coun-
try at this time that Mr.. Taggart is the
opposite of the pictures of him drawn
by his enemies. There is no man in
the opinion of The Dispatch who has
been more faithful to the cause of the
real people than Tom" Taggart
Standing by his convictions as a Dem
ocrat, he has received abuse and villi6-
cation from not a few whom his hand
fed and who now repay him by ingrati-
thde It has been truthfuliy said that
no man is able to put his finger upon
any private or public act of Mr.. Tag
CART that might splotch his character as
q sterling American citizen. He has
been consistently true to his friends,
faithful 10 the people and unvarying in
support of his party. This is more
than enough to incur the enmity of the
vicious minded and set in motion the
same sort of character assassins that
have cursed Chicago for the past TWEEN
ty years. But Mr.. Taggart will sur
vive, and his name viii be a pleasant
memory to his friends when his Will
hers are forgotten in the dust of we'll
earned obloquy-From Dunlop's Dis
