Yesterday Hall and Stevens re-

to their rooms at Mrs. Rlces resi-
dence. HANS whereabouts were kept
a secret and the authorities were un-
able to locate him until few days
ago when he wrote to several persons
in Caldwell county, giving them his
address. The fact became known in
that section of the state and now
when visitors from that section come
to Louisville they look Hall up at the
address given.
Strange Men Came In Groups.
Such was the case yesterday. An
excursion train over the Illinois Gem
trial railroad brought several hundred
visitors to Louisville from western
Kentucky. Many OF them were men
implicated by Hall and Stevens in
their confessions. From Caldwell
county a,one there were sixty Of the

Indiana Democrats Will Do

THE MEN THAT OWN THE PARTY

IT, Nasht, ihu't aug. Zo.-f ofAeT
cal gossip galore may By heard on an
sides in connection with the after
math OF the Kern notification meet
ing at indianapolis Tuesday, and the
presence at that time Of william Jen-
nings Bryan, candidate for president.
This gossip has revived more strong
~ than ever the rumors to the effect
that the real leaders of the Democ-
racy in Indiana. Thomas Taggart,
Joseph Bell, Crawford Fairbanks. the
brewery king. and others among the
big brewers, who were furnishing the
financial sinews of war in the present
fight. are for Bryan to his face, and
Indifferent to him behind his back
In other words, Taggart and his al
lies are for Marshall and Democrat
ic Legislature. So pronounced Is this
impression that the real friends of
the commoner in Indiana, those who
were for him when Taggart, Bell.
Marshall. the candidate for COVER
nor, and dozen Of other gold Demo-
Gratis. were against him, are now NUT
tering under their breaths and declar-
ing that IL anyone is to be sacrificed

serted by the Indiana leaders. and
had lite money, has expressed him
self to the effect that Bryan win run
10 900 votes ahead of Marshall in
this state. This Gentleman. while in
indianapolis on Tuesday, got ample
proof OF the fact that a plan was on
foot to sidetrack Bryan for Marshall,
and he then made the above state
ment.
Will Not support Marshall.
Continuing. he said: 1.-THE Demo-
cratic farmers who are for temper
ance will not support Marshall on his
irsincere temperance platform
Therefore Bryan will run ahead of
Marshall"
While not saying so In 50 many
words. this gentleman intimated
strongly that Marshall would lose.
also, because of the underhand fight
his friends are making against Bryan.
II also Is being pointed out that these
same Democratic farmers who are
against Marshall on temperance
grounds are for Judge Taft as a re-
sult of the unexampled prOsperity

present and which they wish TO enjoy.
Bolted Democrats.
Another thorn in the flesh of Mar
shall Is the fact that he voted in two
recent congressional elections against
the Democratic candidate in his dis
trict. This is beng freely asserted,
and the action is rising up like a
ghost to haunt the candidate for gov
ornor now that he IS preaching his
party loyalty in his own behalf. Again
IL is charged that IN Mr.. Marshals
speech at the Kern notification Tues
day. when he talked ten minutes in
the presence Of Bryan, he for the
first time mentioned the commoner's
name in a public address. 1t was
this failure which caused the Demo-
cratic papers Of the state to jump
on him In a vigorous manner.

Guaranteed Deposits.

The general assault of the republican party the
democratic plank covering the principle of guaranteed
bank deposits has called forth little testimony from
John Barrett, director of the bureau of American
republics.
Mr.. Barrett states that the republican campaign
managers have requested all the republican papers of
the land to attack the guarantee plan with vigor and
keep up the attack until election day.
This is task that the republican newspapers
unable to nte1ligently accomplish, for genuine,
effective criticism of the guarantee plan can be
p1oyed They have tried the trifng little appeals
prejudice that suggest the corruption of the bank
ing fraternity and invitation to criminal practices,
but the public is not at all impressed
1t reasons that the banking maefactor must go
the way of other alefactors and that his suscepti
bi1ity to temptation must not be permitted to inter-
fere with the financial security of the patrons of
banks.
Mr. Barrett is we'll convinced that the recent rul-
ing of the comptroller of the currency prohibiting the
national banks of Oklahoma from participating in the
scheme for guaranteed deposits in that state would
not stand the test of court review He says:
1t is the impression that the ruling of the comp
trol1er that national banks in Oklahoma cannot law

Washington's Primary.

Out of the primary election of last week in the
state of Washington has come overwhelming de-
feat to United States Senator Levi Ankeny. The leg
islature of the state will not return him to Wash
ington if it complies with the instructions of the
people.
Mr. Ankeny's career as a senator has been brief
one He was elected in 1908 and his first term will
expire next March. Yet he has been long enough in
the senate identify himself with the predatory in
terests and to write his name high among the I'M
desirabes.
Mr. Ankeny was defeated by Congressman Wesley
L, Jones, of North Yakima, who is serving his
fifth term as member of the house of representatives
from Washington as a republican. Mr.. Jones belongs
to the progressive element of his party and will not
OCCUPY the vacancy in the A1drch contingent of the
senate made by the retirement of Mr.. Ankeny.
This much has the primary election system done
for the state of Washington the United States senate
and the country at large. The people have been
placed in charge of the senatorial selection and no
purchased legislature set their will aside.
Mr. Ankeny a of great wealth, was the owner
of political organization, machine and it would
have continued to him triumphantly but for
the Intervention of the primary election SYSTEM
against which money and political trckery unable
to prevail
Of the defeated candidate and the successful can
didate the Spokane Spokesman Review says:
Now that Senator Ankeny is defeated his political
organization will quickly disintegrate In spite of all
his resources of political patronage and money he
has been beaten by opponent OF modest personal
fortune Congressman Jones has made clean, cred
liable fight for his senatorial honors. His election
digniies the state of Washington. The news of his
success is good to flash by electric wire to
other states of the union.

bowling.
