what part Governor Marshall is going
to have in the formation of the next
democratic platform is question which
is occupying the attention of the poll
ticians. The question of the most in
terest to the governor and his, friends
is the liquor question: and 1t is this
question on which there is great di-
versity OF opinion, as shown by the
meeting of big democrats at the Deni-
son hotel last Sunday.
The information came out today that
in the meeting Sunday. which was at
tended by members of the state COM
mittee and a number of candidates. one
loquacious member of the state com
mittee moved that the question Of a
platform be considered. and he. 1t is
said was ruled out of order by State
Chairman Jackson. who was presiding
From that time forward the soft pedal
was put on when it came to a discus

way of stopping platform discussion

The trade mark printed is a copy of
a gold medal which Mr.. Ffnkelstein re-

during the Russian-Japanese war. The
governor having learned that Mr.. Fin
kelstein was an excellent cutter and
designer. suggested that the firm en-
ploying Mr.. F'inkelstein permit him to
act cutter for the sick soldiers of
the Russian army. When the war was
over the governor of Tashkend sum
moned the tailor before him again and
offered to pay him. But the latter. hav-

high compliments for his work. The

The validity and legality of the COM
missioners' further grant is a matter
of some speculation by attorneys here.
and a prominent lawyer, well versed
in such matters. stated to a TINES re-
porter last evening that while the
commissioners last grant might be
legal, there is still the question of the
matter being tied up in legal tangle
for some time. He stated. however.
that there could be no question TO
the validity of Mr.. Seamen's first fran
chise to the Gary bridge, and although
this land had been annexed to Gary
since the time OF the granting OF the
franchise, 1t could not annul the power
or right of the instrument over the
territory in question. The attorney
stated that to avoid any legal con-
troversy or the tying up of Mr.. Sea-
mems interest in the courts. 1t would
be the wisest move Mr.. Seamen could
make to build his tracks and operate
II possible car or cars on the disputed
territory before the expiration of the
time allowed on his first franchise

form of two years ago declaring for
township and ward local option. Today
this statement was denied by demo-
crat who is close friend of Governor
Marshall. This democrat said that
Thomas Taggart and his followers had
not decided as yet what they would at
tempt to get into the PLATFORM but he
said that it was his understanding from
reliable sources that the brewers. would
keep hands off and that the democratic
convention would merely declare
against sumptuary legislation The
brewers, he said, would do all. of their
lighting in the state legislature.
However, among those who attended
the meeting at the Denison. the senti-
ment seemed to be for reaffirmation of
the old democratic platform. and if
Thomas Taggart has any other ideas
he has not yet handed them down be-
cause most of those who attended, the
Denison conference were Taggart men.
1t seems to be question of just how
much trouble the governor can cause
in case he is given no word in the af-
fairs of the state convention. 1t is the
general belief that if Taggart thinks
he can get by with it he will have a
reaff1rmation of the old platform. If
he thinks this will be going q little
too far he will change his plans.

possible by the incompleted bridge

fact that cars were not running on the

troversy in question was simply to
