TIMES BUREAU
At THE STATE CAPITAL.

indianapolis, Nov s.-When Edward
@. Hoffman of Fort Wayne came to this
city a few days ago 1t is said that he
refused TO get out of the race for
democratic state chairman although
strenuous efforts were made to get him
out of II. Hoffman is the candidate
of Steve Fleming, who is one of the
powers in the democratic party. Wheth-
er it was because Fleming told him
to not get out of the race or not is
not known, but tn etwo were here to-
gether, and it is known that before
Hoffman started back to Fort Wayne
he let it become known that he would
not retire. but that he would stay in.
at least for the present.
According to the story told since his
visit here. it was sought by somebody
TO have him step aside in order that
some other candidate might receive the
support that otherwise would go to
Hoffman. But when Hoffman found out
who the other candidate was to be he
baked and said he would stay in the
race.
All Of this Is interesting in view of
the fact that while Fleming was here
with Hoffman he made the statement
that he would not fight Congressman
or. 1t had been supposed ali along
that Fleming would oppose Boehne with
all his might. but it is pointed out
that II he were to do this he would not
haveany other candidate to turn He
does not like Samuel NJ Ralston, and
he does not like Boehne. And these
are the only two candidates in the race
thus far. So it looks like six of one
and half of dozen of the other
for Fleming. and that he is caught in
Jam where he will have to accept one
or the other of the unsatisfactory can
didates.
1t is said that Fleming has in mind
a plan by which he will agree to not
fight Boehne provided he is allowed to
name the candidate for state chairman
OF course, the Taggart ia elton would not
agree to Hoffman, for chairman or any
other candidate that Fleming might ia
vor. but this will not make any differ
ence, In case the Fleming element is
able to control the organization. If
IL does this it can name Hoffman or any
other man for state chairman, and the
Taggart crowd controls the committee
IL will name its man, and Hoffman

DEMOCRATS BOOST
HOFFMAN FOR CHAIRMAN

+, would not stand any chance under such
circumstances
I Therefore, Fleming might as well
have Hoffman for mis- candidate as any
body else. II he makes a combination
with the Boehne forces so as to con-
troll the state committee he Will be in
position to give Thomas Taggart q
good beating and to even up a few old
scores in several directions.
Hoffmans refusal TO get out Of the
race for chairman makes it look now
like fight between Hoffman and May
or Goetz of South Bend for the place.
And this would make a red-hot fight.
Some Of Samuel NJ. Ralston's friends
are much wrought up over the char
acter of opposition that is being made
to his nomination for governor They
say that Ralston is a man that can
not be controlled by Taggart any
body else. They insist that Ralston
is being opposed wrongfully because he
cannot be controlled. They point out
that some of the brewers of the state
are opposing him because he is too dry,
and that other persons are opposing
him because he is too wet
1t is being recalled that last year
the Boone county democratic conven-
ton refused to indorse the state plat
form on the liquor question. but de-
clared in favor of retaining the county
option law in force. The brewers and
the liquor people all over the state
hoped on Ralston for allowing his
county to do this. They said he should
have compelled the county convention
TO indorse the plank which called for
the repeal of the county option law.
, Therefore, they said. he was entirely
too dry. some of the brewers Steve
Fleming among them. are opposing him
this time for the nomination for gov
ernor. and 1t is said that this is the
reason.
On the other hand, there IS a general
understanding all over the state that
Ralston is the man favored by Thomas
Taggart for governor. Taggart is the
mouthpiece OF Crawford Fairbanks, the
Terre Haute brewer. in politics, and peo-
pie take it, therefore that neither Tag
CART nor Fairbanks would be willing
to indorse Relston If he wer enot salts
factory to them and If they did not
know that he was wet enough to suit
their views.
This places Ralston in a tight posi-
ton. without being able to turn in any
direction.

Indianapolis. Ind. Nov s.-Governor
Marshall yesterday issued the annual
Thanksgiving day proclamation as fol-
lows:
Our ancestors had their sacred
days of fasting and of thankfulness.
Upon the one they bowed themselves
before an angry god and in sackcloth
and in ashes repented OF their sins
and prayed that the cup of suffering
might pass from them. Upon the other
they lifted the light of their counte-
nances TO the light ineffable and
greatly rejoiced that He had not SO
dealt with any people. Whether wise
ly or not, who can say. the day OF
fasting has passed into fnnocuous
desuetude. The day of thanks remains
a vital date in our national life. The
figure of the Nazarene looms so largely
upon our civilization that 1T may even
be hoped that soon the whole world
will be kin and that the measures of
our gratitude viii not be material but
rather spiritual: that hodden-gray and

ROBS LADY AND
THEN ESCAPES

While on her ,"ay up town from
her home in the Davis addition last
Tuesday evening about 8 o'clock
Mrs. F. L. Rademaker was attack
ed by bold hold-up man, and rob-
bed of the contents Of her purse
about eight or ten dollars, and in
exchange received a severe blow
which rendered her partially un-
conscious.
Mrs. Rademaker after leaving
her home had just reached the
spur crossing when she was ap-
preached by the robber, who, after
saluting her with cordial ''good
evening"" said: Have you any
money!" The lady hadn't any
more than replied mo" when she
was struck in the forehead and
knocked down across the rails,
and before she had come to her
self the robber had secured her
money anl fled.
That he used a weapon to az
complish his dastardly work is
very evident. for as the result of
the blow she received an ugly three
cornered cash in the forehead and
another scar across the nose.
Mr. Rademaker returned home
shortly and after learning Of her
misfortune SET out in search of the
tramp but his efforts were all in
vain. Mr.. Tramp meant TO "beat
it, while the going was good.
Although it is very seldom, if
ever before, in Wibaux that such
an offense as that has been COM
mitted, it occurs to the writer that
for this time Of the year there are
an unusual number of strangers
around town who don't seem to be
working or even looking for work,

there were a few more hanging
round looking for chance to live
off of some one else's income.

been able to learn from conversat-

county is an assured thing if Sen
ator McCone will do what his con-

question about the people within
the proposed new county wanting
its organization. The opposition
is both weak and without any
sound objection. The only Guest
ion is whether MrCone will help
us through. It's up to McCone.
Our people VIII hold him directly
responsible for our defeat, should
we be defeated. We believe how
over that Senator McCone is with
us and that he will not turn us
down on this proposition.
