TOGA SURE To
FALL To KERN
Will Be Selected Not Later
Than the Third Ballot.
1t Is Said.
CANDIDATES ARE FOR HIM.
SLACK is NOT AS STRONG As HE
IS INCLINED TO THINK, IT Is
SHOWN AFTER CAREFUL INvEs-
LEGATION OF SITUATION.

indianapolis, Ind, Dec. Unless
there is decided change in the situa-
ton during the next six weeks, John
Worth Kern, Of Indianapolis. late nom-
inee for vice president, will be chosen
as his party's candidate for the United
States senate on not later than the
third ballot of the legislative caucus.
He has the pole now in a race that
has not become as exciting as predict
ed, and, while there are some obstacles
that look threatening to his interests,
they are not to be compared to what
his opponents will have to overcome.
While not quite as strong as the en-
tire field. he is near 1t right now, and
il his followers keep from rocking
their boat he will wear a senatorial
tuga after the 4th Of next March. The
only hope the field has of defeating
him is by perfecting a working combi-
nation, which would mean that all but
one of the candidates would have to
withdraw
There is nothing in the situation
now to warrant the belief that tho
field could deliver its members to any
one candidate as against Kern. In
fact, Kern and his friends would well
come an attempt to force a combina-
ton, as they are confident that he
would get more than majority of the
votes II all of his opponents but one
would withdraw.
It is known that it is the hope OF L.
Ert Slack, of Franklin, that the field
will take to the timber at the eleventh
hour and give him its votes. He Is
said to be very confident that with
what votes he could land with the
withdrawal of Major Menzies, John E.
Lamb. B. f. Shiveley and Edward G.
Hoffman. he would have q slight ma
jority over Kern. l-.
If Thomas Taggart had remained In
the race 1t is thought now that Slack
would have shown more strength; that
there would have been a movement to
defeat the machine and to rally around
Slack as the most available man for
that purpose.
But when Taggart withdrew he made
q declaration that he would not take
part in the contest, and the party
seems to have accepted his word.
It has been pointed out that the
great difficulty in forming working
combination against Kern Is that near
ly all the candidates are for him in
preference to Slack. Lamb will have
nine votes In his own district to start
with, but on second choice at least half
of them are friendly to Kern.
II there Is to be a combination the
chances are that it will have to be
constructed around some one who is
not a candidate at this time-for in
stance. around Daniel Simms, of La
fayette, whise name is mentioned ia
vorably wherever the race is discussed.
Simms is striking figure in Indiana
politics and is we'll liked by all fac
tions of the party. His ability to rep
resent the state with distinction is ad
mitted and there are many who believe
that the lightning will strike" him at
the wind-up and that he will become
the nominee without being q candi-
date.

FALL FLOWING.
Facilitates Work In the Spring an,
Improves Seed Bed.

While little definite investigation has
been carried on to determine the rela.
tive value of spring and fall blowing
yet the practice on many of our west.
ern ranches is to get as much as pos
sible of the land to be seeded in the
spring plowed during the fall. This
foresight is considered especially es-
sential in breaking new ground. OF
course in the arid region of the country
it Is difficult to pillow in the fall, and
some farmers leave the work until
spring in order that the land may be
plowed much more easily after the
SHOWS and spring rains. One advan-
tage in fall blowing is that 1t opeIs uu
