BULL MOOSE ACTIVE
IN. INDIANA UNDER
SENATOR BEVER|DGE
Contest in State Is Admitted
ly Between Wilson and
Roosevelt. &

Reports of great Bull Moose activity
in Indiana are reaching Washington.
According to these reports, the Progress
sive party, under the leadership OF
Senator Beveridge. is making remark
able headway.
The Indiana situation as 1t has al
ready shaped up has become contest
between the Wilson forces and the
Roosevelt forces. Canvasses in some
Of the Indiana counties show that the
third party sentiment Is overwhelming.
Another interesting fact about the
Hoosier State Is that many strong men
are lining up for Roosevelt. Among
these men are many of the foremost
members Of the Republican party in
past years, men who are a power in
their localities.
Moreover. the drift of voters to the
Progressive party In the State is not
proceeding from the Republican party
alone. Large numbers Of Democrats
are lining UP for Roosevelt
The Progressive movement is getting
powerful newspaper support in the
State. 1t is already conceded that Pres
ident Taft will come out Of the struggle
N Indiana third. and probably low
third at that
Senator .Beveridge is going about the
business Of organizing the third party
In Indiana with great enthusiasm.
Those who know something of Bev-
eridges earlier struggles in the Senate
know that he never fights to better
advantage than when he is against
strong machine oppositions He is get.
ting many Of the younger men en-
listed in the fray.
AS the situation stands today, the
Wilson men insist they are going to
carry the State and they rely a good
deal on the fact that Governor Mar
shall is on the ticket.
At the same time, there Is admittedly
a tremendous undercurrent of Roose.
welt sentiment which is causing the
Democrats apprehension and Is likely to
surprise the country on election day.

Mayor Louis Lachmund is now for

Mayor Lachmund rode into the may
