Big Republican Meeting Last
Night Insures Victory
This Fall.
ISSUES ARE DISCUSSED.

Whitewater, Ind, Oct. 22-An enthu-
siastic Republican meeting was held
last night at Laurel hall. The hall was
crowded with people and the audience
listened with the utmost interest to the
arguments advanced by State Senator
Roscoe E. Kirkman and Samuel E.
Spooner. Mr.. Kirkman's handling of
state issues and his strong advocacy of
the election of James E. Watson as
governor met the hearty approval of
the crowd.
Mr.. Spooner spoke on national issues
and he made a forcible and mastery
address, full of logical reasonings and
unquestioned facts relative to the can
didacy of W. H. Taft for president.
The result of this meeting insures the
usual large Republican majority old

eral selections rendered by the Girls

scheduled to arrive at Cambridge City
at $40 o'clock Saturday morning.
There is no doubt but the entire west

the central point for East Germantown,
Milton and Dublin, and thousands Of
persons from these towns and the sur

The Rev. BILLY" Sunday, the fam
GUS evangelist and former star baseball
player, has picked the following all
star team for Golfers Weekly, pub
lished in this weeks issue:
Left field, Clark. Center field, Don
lin. Right field, Cobb. First base,
Chance. Second base, Lajoie. Third
base, Bradley. Short stop, Wagner.
Catchers, King, Bresnahan, and Sulli-
van. Pitchers, Mathewson, Brown,
Walsh, joss, Johnson, and Waddell.
Utility infield, Holman and Isbell.
Utility outfeld, Stone.
Sunday has certainly picked a great
team-one hard to be improved on.
Some fans will question his choice of
Lajoie over Evers. The latter has been
playing a great game the past three
years, and today Is probably the equal
of King Larry, but not his. superior.
It's a toss up as to which man fits in
best at second base.
Some will question the selection of
Bradley for third base. The students
OF the game will agree, however, with
Sunday in his choice. There are lot
of splendid third basemen, but the
Cleveland star still heads the list by a
narrow margin. There will be no dis
pute about the utility infielders. Some
may question the selection of Stone,
the St Louis American. slugger, for
utility outfield, but he would fill the job
nicely. He is a clever fielder and one

The first four players appearing on
the pitching sNAI will be accepted with

also accept Johnson, the Washington
