believed that the triumph of the Diaz
government would be calamity to the
country. Naturally. says Madero, the
federals had little interest in winning
battles, and the federal army was not
really defes ted. Defeat came only to
the dictatora who were driving them
How was It POSSIBLE, he says, that the
federals could win when they even

Indianapolis Banquet on Night
of July 4.

indianapolis. June 27-There is
much speculation as to the text from
which President Taft, head of the
Republican uarty, will speak when he
faces Republ can party men in his
Indiana meetings, July ) and 4. From
some quarters it has been suggested
that he would speak Oh reciprocity.
Other observers have suggested other
themes as possible. 1t is safe TO an
nounce that Mr. Taft will speak the
aggressive. earnest and fearless COS
pei of Republicanism. and it is pre-
dicted that his greeting and welcome
In this state will be such as TO leave
no doubt either as to the quality and
meaning of Indiana Republicanism
or as to the high regard in which Mr.
Taft Is held among Indiana Republi-
cans.
1t is general feeling up and down
the state that Hoos;er followers of
the Republican cause have an oppor-
tunity. In the visit of Taft TO ex-
press themselves emphatically AMI
gracefully as the good friends of the
President. and as the upholders of
the cause he represents. With this
in mind the Republicans are prepar-
ING to assist in every wav to make
President Taft's visit to the state a
happy and suspicious one. and to i'm
press on the party's bio leader the
fact that Indiana is in line when it
comes to mil tant progress and fl hit
ing faith in the grand old party.
The Republican banquet to be Civ
en- on the night of July 4 at the
Claypool motel, in this city, is expect
ed to be fine tribute to Mr.. Taft,
and q splendid demonstrat on of the
ability of Indiana Republicans for ~
ganization and cordial hospitality
The spirit of the occasion is ex-
pected to 90 far to inspire the cam
paign that lies ahead.
1t is amazing in this period of no
politics to find Republicans so deep
ly interested. and so lively In THEN
activity in connection with the Taft
visit. said Charles S. Norton, who
is in charge of the tickets for the
Republican banquet to Taft. "We
have been flooded with calls for
places at the banquet The calls are
still coming in steadily. The requests
are numbered and are attendd to in
their order. We have a lot of bust
ness On hand, / can tell YOU. The Re-
publicans all over the state are eager
to meet Mr.. Taft, and to hear him
speak. " -
