TIMES BUREAU,
At STATE CAPITAL


indianapolis. Ind. May 17-Since the
name of Harry S. New was announced
as likely candidate for the position of
chairman Of the republican state com
mittee, practically all other talk has
died out and 1t Is believed now that If
Mr.. New makes a formal announce
ment that he is a candidate or even that
he will accept the place If offered to
him, there viii not be any other can
didate. Among the politicians here
there seems to be a general feeling
that New is the man for the place. for
he is known as a first class organizer. a
clever politician, a straightforward and
excellent citizen. His selection would
inspire confidence In the party and put
1t on the road to success at the next
election. and confidence. by the way, is
going to be a mighty important factor
IN the next campaign among the re-
publicans.
Made Good Record in Last Campaign.
Harry New has long been a promi-
nent factor in Indiana politics No re-
publican in Indiana is better known to
the rank and file of the party as we'll
as to the politicians than Harry New.
He has studied the game of politics
from one end to the other. He has
been chairman Of all kinds Of COM
mittees, from precinct committee to re
publican national committee. and he
has never fallen down on any job that
has been assigned to him. That much
is in his favor. He became national
chairman when George B. Cortelyou
resigned prior to the opening of the
last presidential campaign. He made
all of the arran gements for the repub-
lican national convention in Chica 60
last year, and the success of that con-
vention is well remembered, although

THE CITY
Remains Shipped Away.

Mrs. S. J .Brinkly, wife of the prin-
cipal OF the Fourteenth street schools
in Gary, died yesterday in hospital in
Chicago. Mrs. Brinkly was well known
in Gary where she has lived during the
past school year, and her friends are
grieved over the loss. Mr.. and Mrs.
Brinkly resided at 704 Connecticut
street. The remains will be shipped
today from the hospital at Chicago to
Button. Indiana, their former home,
for burial.

majority ever given the republican tick
ct in any county in the state. This fact
gave him much prominence and put him
in line for the state Craftsmanship, but
It is known that Schaaf is to become
postmaster Of Hammond within the
next few months, and this takes him
out of the list of possibilities.
So there seems TO be a good pros
pect that Harry New will be the next
state chairman. 1t is not likely, how
ever, any election VIII be held before
the regular election time next Janu-
airy, when the state committee meets
for reorganization. This is the time
that has been permanently fixed for
the election of a chairman, and there
is nothing now to indicate that any
other plan will be followed this time.

CLIMPSES OF

AMUSING INCIDENT IN HIS HOME

How Young Student and the Novel
ist's Wifs Figured In One Of His Fa-
vorite ldeaa--Greatest Pleasure That
His Poetry Ever Gave Him.
OF Bjornstjerne BJornson. the aged
Norwegian novelist. dramatist, poet
and patriot, who was born at Kvikne,
Osterdalen. Norway. on Dec. g. 1882,
and who was recently stricken with
an attack Of arterio sclerosis, an inter

a number OF years In the United States.
In the first article he ever published
Bjornson announced his firm belief that
a new generation OF poets would soon
arise in Norway. 1t was one of his
favorite Ideas. and he reverted to it
time and again. One who heard more
OF it perhaps than anybody else was

zELAYA A GREAT FIGHTER.
President Of Nicaragua, Who Executed
Two American Citizens.

President Of Nicaragua, Who Executed
Two American Citizens.
The revolt which recently broke out
In Nicaragua came as a climax to 4
series of prosecutions inaugurated by
Jose Santos Zelaya. titular president
and actual dictator Of Nicaragua.
against whom President Taft and Sec
retary OF State Knox have decided to
take drastic action for his summary
execution Of the two Americans, Leroy
Cannon and Leonard Groce Zelaya
is fifty-one years cid. and the wonder
fuI thing about his life is that he has
lived so long af.ey making himself so
many feryent enemies.
Zelaya belongs to the aristocracy OF
his country. AS boy be was sent to
Paris and received bis education there,
but his success has been obtained by
means of the sword rather than the
pen. II Is likely that he inherited a
considerable fortune. but this has been
built up since be became ruler Of Mic
aragua until now it must be estimated
In the millions. He owns enormous
coffee plantations alone and controls
the exclusive rights TO many OF the
industries.
This is not the first time that Zelaya
has deiied the United States That has
been one OF his principal diversions, as
a matter OF fact. Whenever the Unit
ed States has sought redress he has
set up the cry OF aggression.
Zelaya gained his ascendency in 1897
by winning big battle. He Is a fight
er ana a tactician. and II he has
drenched his country and the other lit
tie countries that are unfortunate
enough to border it in the blood OF
thousands OF their inha bitants he has
done 1t on q military scale that is sci
dom attained in Central America.
Ever since he first became president
he has been combating revolutions or
else fighting with some other state
that had pluck enough to resist his
domineering attitude. In 1899 the Con-
servatives OF Nicaragua rose In rebel

slaughter. He bullied Honduras and
Salvador and Guatemala and even
manipulated their politics. After 1901,
when he was reelected president, his
rule was unquestioned
All sorts os stories have been circu-
lated about his cruelties If one tithe
Of them have been true. then certainly
Zelaya has maintained rule that for
sheer ferocity has surpassed anything
alleged against Russian grand dukes.
Those for whom he had personal en-
mites he is said to have caused to be
removed at will. He is credited with
having reintroduced the methods Of
the inquisition and the practices Of
the Spanish viceroys Of the eighteenth
century. The dungeon and the firing
squad and trial by court martial have
been his Instruments Of justice.
