One of the interesting features of the
Star article is the reference to the fact
that traction and gas representatives at
Philadelphia have looked Marshall over.
And 1t has been since his visit to Phila-
delphia that the news has come from
| New York that Tammany appears to be
pretty well impressed with the availa-
bility and esirability of Marshall as a
presidential candidate
| Whether there is any connection be-
tween the two incidents is not known,
!. but it is pointed out that up in the
northwest part OF the state OF Indiana
:, where he anti Marshall sentiment va.
so violent some-months ago little or
nothing is heard of it now. For some
reason it has been quieted and Mar
shall seems to be gaining ground
steadily in that part of the state. II IS
further pointed out that 1t is in that
part of the state that Philadelphia gas
and traction interests are as strong. If
not stronger than in any other part of
| the state. 1t is not known that this
coincident has had anything to do with
the allaying of the anti-Marshall feels
ing but the fact remains that the

bout the time that these interests be-
gan to get busy in their search for
| franchises and to establish their foot
hold In those counties.
! Another feature is pointed to as be-
ing significant in this connection, aud
! that is that stephen B. FLEEING. of Fort
Wayne, is' closely connected with the
| Philadelphia traction I'M is
| reputed to be heavy stakeholder in
| the Indiana traction lines which are
/ controlled by the Philadelphia people
thus bringing him in close direct touch
with them. Fleming also is MARSHALL,
chief boomer in Indiana for the Presi-
dency. Therefore. it is not difficult Il
believe that the Philadelphia traction
people would find Marshall satisfactory
as a candidate for the Presidency.

Political developments in Indiana
indicate that Governor Thomas r. Mar

In the next National Democratic con-
vention than the Hoosier Democrats
have heretofore expected This may
come about through the operations of
Thomas Taggart. Democratic national
committeeman. commonly believed to
be the political foe of the Governor.
None has been quite so bold as to say
they believe Marshall will enter In an
agreement with Taggart for the Indi-
ana delegation and for Taggart's sup
port in the convention but the feeling
is growing that some such arrang cinv-
will be made before the campaign for
the delegation is fairly under way.
After the recent conventions of In
diana Democrats. with the Governors
striking victory over the Taggart
pledged to John Worth Kern for the
United States Senate II was said that
Taggart was done and out and that his
machine was hopelessly smashed. But
when the smoke of the convention had
cleared away it was discovered that
the Taggart coterie had captured virtu-
was elected from top TO bottom, and
the Taggart forces are now in control
OF the remunerative places in the
affairs of the state.
Most of the voters of the state, how
ever. are in sympathy with the Gov
ernor against the Taggart machine
But the Governor has no organization
having neglected. in his almost lsiree
years in Office to build up one.
Hence the talk OF a compromise be-
tween the Marshall and the Taggart
forces whereby Marshall is TO receive
the support of Tageart and the Taggari
organiza ton in the national Democratic
convention.
In return, it Is said. Tasgart is to be
given control of the state organization
and the Governor is to work for the
denomination and reelection OF Tag
CARTS friends on the state ticket.
Color has been lent to this political
tale by the further report that the big
eastern Democrats have looked over
Marshall and have found him satisfac-

Making His Mark.

One funny thing / have learned
about human nature said a drug
store cashier, lis the habit many peo-
pie have of marking their name in the
city directory. They do that because
the directory is the only place where
their name ever gets into print, and 1t
has such a fascination for them that
they can't resist calling attention to it.
funny little old man who likes to
talk tells ME that he has made special
trips to different parts of the city just
to mark his name in the directories of
the neighborhood. He puts a little
cross In red ink before it. l asked him
what good it did. He said none. pos

languages and may get a few calls on
account of that queer advertisement.

nomina ton. and his recent utterances
in favor of the nomina ton of Marshall
have promoted the belief among many
Indiana Democrats that some under
standing has been reached whereby
Taggart and his friends in the national
organization are TO pit Marshall against
Gov Woodrow Wilson, of New Jersey.
When Marshall went 10 Philadelphia
a few months ago he was cordially re-
ceived by representatives of traction
and gas interests and pretty thoroughly
sized up. Talk has begun to come from
New York City that Tammany Hall

EVOLUTION OF
CLOTHES

Centuries ago, as Sir Walter Scott
says in ''Ivanhoe." men wore one thick
ness of clothes, whether of wool, leath-
err or velvet. The shirt was invented,
but for a long time was worn only by
the nobility and gentry Then followed
the waistcoat. breaches and later on
trousers. The overcoat, which succeed
ed the medieval cloak, was rare until
the seventeenth century. - Pittsburgh

will greatly lessen corporation con-

MEASURES
CUT VOTE

As Indiana will vote for the first
time at the next election under a gen
eral registry law. and as another law
known as the corrupt practices ac.,
puts many restrictions upon candidates
and party committees, a work of edu-
cation is now in progress in all parts
of the state that has not before been
necessary as a preliminary to a cam
paign, says the Chicago Record Herald.
For more than a quarter of a century
the Republicans of Indiana have favor
ed a registration law and have advo-
Gated 1t in party platforms, while
Democrats were practically a unit
against 1t. That the present law. more
stringent than any that Republicans
ever proposed, should have been enact
ed by a Democratic legislature may
seem strange in the light of past party
history, but the change in sentiment
came through one election and through
the methods employed in one county.
At the general election of 1908 the
Democrats elected only the governor
and the superintendent of public in
instruction. The Republican .nsJorities
for the other state officers ranged from
less than 100 to 500.

Aided BY Illegal Votes.

When the votes were canvassed it
was seen that Lake county had saved
these Offices for the Republicans.
Charges of fraud were freely made by
the Democrats and proceedings for
contesting the elections the Repub-
licans were drawn up and mass of
evidence secured to show that more
than 1000 illegal votes We're cast in
Lake County. mostly by foreigners. II
was then discovered that there is no
provision either in the constitution OF
in the statute law for contesting she
election of a state officer. and the pro-
posed proceedings had to be abandoned
1t was this condition that gave to the
state the registration and the corrupt
practices act. both of which are intend
ed to guard the elective franchise.

and two clerks will be appointed in
