ed that the names of three candidates.
who are seeking the honor. will be
placed before the convention. They
are E. E. Neal, of NobIesville, who was
the candidate against Congressman
Morrison two years ago: the Rev. Mr..
Parr. OF Kokomo. and william Robin
son. an attorney. Of Frankfort
Richmond-The mandatory call of
the Bull Moose state committee for the
nomination Of county tickets may be
the cause of friction In the ranks of
the Moosers in Wayne county. Some
of the former Republicans who have
been interested in the Bull Moose party
in so far national and state tickets
go have been urging that the party in
Wayne county should indorse the Re-
publican county ticket nominated by
direct primarys last February. 1t has
been the understanding generally that
the Republican ticket would be permit
ted to stand and that the only opposi-
ton would come from the Democrats
who this year propose to put ticket
in the field.
| Danville-The Bull Moosers in Hen
bricks county are practically unanim-
Gus in their insistence that there be no
third county ticket here, despite the
fact that State Chairman Lee has sent
out a call requesting that each county
put out a full ticket. The Republicans
of Hendricks county nominated a full
ticket on March 1, and the convention
was participated in by the entire Re
publican vote. The Bull Moose leaders
here now say that as they had a part
in the nomination of the ticket they
propose to stand by it to the last. The
| resignation of Eugene z. York of
Plainf1eld, from the nomination on the
Republican ticket for representative
on account of accepting q position as
superintendent OF an Odd Fellow $
home in Tennessee. has made 1t neces-
sary to nominate man to fill the va
cancy. Mr.. York rendered his resigna-
ton several weeks ago. but as yet no
move has been made toward the selec-
ton of his successor. There are six
avowed candidates for the position
Ben Davis, Jonathan Lowe, Herschell
Rynearson. Charles Mendenhall, John
} w Trotter and George z .11asley.

LITTLE PROFIT ON BEEF.
WITNESS MAINTAINS

CHICAGO. Jan. 20--Declaring that
the National Packing Co, Is supply
IDf its customers with meat at prac-
tIcaiIy cost prices. William T.. Web
Der. auditor of the packing corpora
ion. today told the story of that or
r1nixation before Federal Judge Car
Dcnter IN the trial OF the beef men.
Our prices are governed entirely
by the laws OF supply and demand,
said Weber. In our test cost de-
parfment we attempt TO take as a
basis for figuring. the actual cost of
each head OF cattle. To this is our
only rroft. We add that figure TO the
cost OF each head of cattle. To this
we add $3.50. II we make a profit
from dressed meat at all, this Is our
only profit. We add that figure 10 the
cost 10 protect ourselves in case our
calculations are wrong. The entire
profit TO the men behind the packing
Industry comes from the sale OF the
by-products. These profits are due
entirely TO the foresight, skill and In
genuity OF the heads OF the business.
What was once most amazing waste
has been turned into useful material
bringing fair profit 10 the companies
handing IL. The packing houses are
giving the people fresh meat at the
cheapest possible prices"
After making this statement Web
Der was led into an examination OF the
hooks and records TO explain the sys-
tem7used by the National In estimat-
ing its costs.
