ment, but they were not brewers. In
the fight against him were two of the
largest brewers in the state. Crawford
Fairbanks of Terre Haute, and Senator
Steve Fleming of FIT. Wayne. Fair
banks was at first supposed to be for
John E. Lamb of Terre Haute, but
later he changed his position and came
out for Shively. And after the caucus
had made its nomination and the
Shively boomers returned to the Deni-

they found Crawford Fairbanks and
Maurice Donnelly. his Indianapolis
manager, there ready to receive them.
Fairbanks and Donnelly Rugged the
Shively fellows and thanked them for
giving their support to Shively, and

Fleming Sore on Kern.

course was based on other grounds
Kern because several years ago Kern
defeated him for chairman on the
democratic state committee and that
defeat has stung ever since. So Elem
ing went into the senatorial fight not
dS DISWST Dub AOT TIE SOlo puIpOSe
of defeating Kern, and incidentally
to nominate Hoffman if he could. But
the fact remains that Fleming is a
brewer and that he was against Kern.
Now that the lines have been drawn
so clearly as to leave no question of
doubt as to the fact that Kern was de-
feated by the activity of the brewing
interests Kerns followers are saying
things. And Kern himself has prom
ised that he will issue a statement
that will scorch somebody. He charges
that he was double-crossed in the
choice of a senator and that those
whom he regarded as his friends threw
him down. Whether this will involve
Tom Taggart or not is not yet known
but Taggart has always been close
to the brewery crowd and has, in fact
been one of its leaders.
This situation puts the repeal of 1.-THE
county option law in danger, and there
| is a good chance for the effort to fail
There is no question but that Kern has
many friends in the legislature. This
was shown plainly by the fact thai
he received 35 votes on the last bal.
lot, while Shively received AZ, a bare
majority. If a dozen or more of Kern's
supporters take a notion to get revenge
| for his defeat and vote against the
repeal of the county option law, the
brewers may find that they have made
an expensive bargain.
