ShiveIy Is Growing Stronger.
Indications just now are that Slack.
has lost some of his footing in the
last week or two. Not that he has as
good a chance as any other candidate
outside of Kern. for he has, but his
prospects do not seem to brighten in
the least as time goes on. B. #. Shive-
" has made gains and is stronger now
than he has been at any time in the
past, but unless combinations are form
ed in his interest he cannot win. There
has been talk about a coalition between
Shively and Steve Fleming of FIT
Wayne, by which Fleming is to swing
the twelfth district to Shively in case
Edward G. Hoffman of FIT. Wayne fails
of election, and the talk has attracted
some attention, but it is not believed
that Fleming could swing the entire
welfth district to Shively or anyone
else. In fact, there is no candidate who
could swing his entire district dele
cation to any other candidate at any
time in the fight. There is going to be
more independence than in the house.
Framing Combinations.
This same talk said that Represen-
tative Garrard of Vineennes, candidate
for speaker, was to enter the combine
with Shively and Fleming, Garrard to
receive their votes for speaker in re-
turn for his throwing the votes of the
second district to Shively for senator
The second district has no candidate
for senator and for a few days this
talk took pretty well, but soon the OBJ
servers came to the conclusion that in
1 1T. i
more votes in other districts than he
would gain by it and they concluded
that he would be foolish to enter into
such an arrangement. Then Garrard
himself declared there was nothing in
it and the talk subsidized. 1t is known
however. that only few days ago Gar
rard and Fleming met at the Denisor
hotel in this city and had a conference
on some subject, and that the meeting
was by appointment.
Fleming After Kern.
Fleming, of course, would be willing
to make almost any kind of a com,
bination or deal that would defea
Kern, for he hates Kern and Kerr
hates Fleming. and it would not be a
all surprising to see him line up will
Shively as second choice. Earlier IL
the campaign it was understood tina
Fleming was about to form a combina
ton with Slack to defeat Kern, blu
this seems to have fallen through
Fleming is a brewer and it is easy t
understand why he would make a dea
with Shively instead of Slack If sucl
a combination has been made it mean
trouble for Slack, for Fleming an,
/ Shively will make a strong team. I
will also cause some uneasiness in tn
Kern camp.

corking campaign for senator.

SHIP RACE

Speakership Is Practically

AT STATE CAPITAL.
Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 2.-While the
fight for the speakership of the house
seems to have narrowed down to such
point that it is about all over but
the shouting, the race for senator is
still on in full blast, with three Of the
candidates running neck and neck.
The speakership was all but settled
long ago. but the withdrawal of Repre-
sentative Strickland of Greenfield, and
Representative John B. Faulkner of
Michigan City, as candidates. practi-
cally put the finishing touches on the
result. Representative Tom Honon of
Seymour will be elected speaker as sure
as the caucus meets on the night before
the session of the legislature opens.
HOnan Was Floor Leader.
Honan's only formidable opponent
now is Representative James Garrard
| of Vincennes, and he has not enough
votes to win with. 1t has all along been
practically admitted by everybody but
the candidates themselves that Honan
would win out, because he was the
floor leader OF the democrats at the
last session and is a hard working
democrat who stands well with the
democratic state organization. The or

Representative w. S. Wells of Aller

he is after the job with both feet, now

THINKS ELECTION CONTEST
IS NO USE AT ALL
AVS the Lake County Star:

Says the Lake County Star:
The Simons-W Mickey contest case is
still going merrily on-but what's the
use? The defeated state officers are
not only using Simons' paws to pull
out the hot chestnuts. If they are
astonihsed at the republican vote Of
Lake county this time, what will they
think four years hence when Gary is
running at full blast?'
