indianapolis, Sept. 19.--The openin1
of the Legislative session this no~,-
ing found the republican leaders fear
fui lest some of their members might
join with the democrats in an insur-
gent movement. This fear kent them
out OF their beds last night. 1t brought
Senator Hemenway and James e. Wat
son, candidate for governor, to town
and kept the state Headquarters i'm the
ClaypooI hotel filed with leaders prec-
ticaIIy all night.
It developed late yesterday that some
OF the republicans who had promised
the bosses to vote for county local op-
ton were anxious to. bring about a sit
uation that would make a vote on
passage of the bill impossible These
insurgents, as they came to be known.
were pledged to vote aye" If the meas
ure reached third reading but there
was nothing to keep them from voting
indirectly in a way that would lead to
premature death
Is a Democratic Scheme.
The indirect manner of death was
concocated as democratic scheme bv
republican aid and to hold in line
members of their own who refused to
promise withhold support The exact
method was not determined but II was
suggested that it might develop to seek
adjournment Immediately after the
specific appropriations about to revert
to the general fund are reappropristkd
or to attempt to oust Speaker Branch

in harmony with the republican pro-
gram makers.
A climax in the first days proceeds
ings was reached last night when
Congressman Watson delivered a ferv
speech before the republican Iegisla-
tors in joint conference assembled. He
put the screws on hard and Character
lied as traitors those who would might
fail to give support in this hour of
need. He made it clear that COVER
norship and a full state ticket as well
as a United States senatorship are az
stake.
Watson Pleads For Harmony.
Watson was never more eloquent
and forcefulness as he was when
standing in the chamber of the house
Of representatives before the legisla-
tors of his own party he impassion-
ately pleaded for harmony, unity of
action and singleness of purpose The
speech made a deep impression and
probably did much to keep in line wav-
ering the weak members.
Earlier in the evening. the republic
ans of the senate had caucused on the
option measure and had voted to give
1t support They had also promised
to amend the appropriation act and to
provide protection against the Night
Riders. They had refused. however. to
repeal the law acknowledging the claim
of Vincennes university. Some of the
governors enemies in the senate had
sought to create a sentiment in favor
of adjournment Immediately after the
appropriations We're taken care of. but
these We're squelched by the majority.

thusiasm over the coming of Congress-
man Burton, Senator Hemenway and

MoRMoNIsM IN POLITICS.

Ont u Idaho the democratic party
has split so widely that there seems
no chance for the breach to heal for
years and tho trouble has all come
over the Mormon question
Theoretically, the conduct Of the
Mormon citizen was settled some
years ago by the law and the church
manifesto prohibiting polygamous
marriages, but In reality il is s;ill a
very live issue wherever there hap

there is no reasonble doubt, but that

prislngly large number Of church Of
flciais-more than 5000 I'm fa0t-and
among these there are those who
are absolutely fanatlcal in belief that
of all the revelations ~ their prophet,

was that authorizing polygamous mar
