 lhdlahapolis.-Goy. Thomas R. Mar shall of Indiana officially has learned that he had been nominated for vice president of the United States by the Democratic party. He was formally notified by a committee Of notification headed by Judge Alton E. Parker of New York, who was temporary chair man al the Baltimore convention.
 Judge Parker's speech was extempo. raneous. He was followed by Gov. Marshall, who accepted in carefully prepared speech the high honor put upon him.
 Ihos who expected Gov. Marshall to deal series of smashing blows at hls political opponents were tisap- pointed Aside from mention of the tariff, the vice presidential nominee did not deal specifically with any Of the bitter throbbing issues of the 1912 campaigns. He did, however, dwell upon the apparent unrest of the people and predict that so per cent of the voters Of tae United States are Demo crats in that they believe in the po- lltlcdl principles enunciated by Thom- as Jefferson.
 Gov. Marshall decried the "bandying of epithets and appeal to the person al, saving, We may safely leave to the senile dementia which has seized the so-called Republican party the per sonalities of this campaign"
 As to the rival platforms he says:
 The voter who believes that the cost of production at home and abroad should be eQualized to the manufac- turer Of this county and who wants an elgarchy 10 rule, may vote the straight Republican ticket; the voter Fho belie9es in similar protective theory but who prefers an oligarchy that the president shall be the state may vote the Progressive ticket. the voter who believes this government should be turned into Socialism. may vote the SocialiGe ticket, the voter who thinks that church and state are not separate in America and that the people have a right 10 settle religious G8estions and determine by the ballot what is god and what is bad may vote the Prohibition ticket. and ali those who insist that i. is nos the bus, ness of government 10 equalize the cost of production to the manufacturer antii it equaIizes the difference in he purcha9e price 10 the consumer a home and abroad who believes that the only equalization iustitiahla in cur government is the equalization Of opportunity, who thinks that public office is public srGsts who does not believe that disgrGutled and defeated politicians are genuine reformers and who think that reforms are not born with sore toes may vote the Demo cratic ticket
 A plea is made for the abolition Of class, and in its stead the establish nent of a national brotherhood. In language which the speaker described as @nomespun," but which at times was employed in phrases striking rhetoric. the speaker pleaded the cause of the cOmmoner against the rich, who, having more than they can use, still seek further to enhance their fortunes through special privilege.
 In his peroration the governor said:
 If l doubted the return of the his. toric Democratic party to power would fail 10 right the wrongs of industrial life. to wipe out the injustiees of leg islation and preserve the opportunity Ct every man for happiness then my voice now weak. would be silent It I did not believe that insofar as hu- man agencies can, this party of ours will promote the brotherhood of man kind. l would here and now repudiate st
