candidate for state chairman.

candluate Tor state chairman.
There was nothing else for him to
do. since he was candidate for the
nomination for reporter of the supreme
court. He could not have had any
chance at the nomination if he had de-
serted the Taggart faction, because
that faction is bound to name the
ticket at the state convention There
fore. it is regarded as practically Ger +.
tain that Cox will have the solid sup
port of sthe Taggart element for the
nomination, and this will be sufficient
to give him the nomination.
Zoercher is not well known in the
which is on the Ohio river, and while
he Is known in that part of the state
he is unknown in the north part Some
of his frienos believe that he will stand
a good chance ta~win the nomination
on account of the fact that he come
from the southern part Of the STATE
but those who think they know about
the true situation say that this will
not avail him anything. because the
south part of the state is to be repre-

nee for lieutenant governor. Whether
this plan carries or not is still ques
ton, but 1t is said TO be the plan TO

of Ralston is assured, and this takes
practically all of the ginger and i'm
terest out OF the prospects for the
convention. The only contests will he
for reporter OF the supreme court and
supreme court judges. There will also
be a contest for lieutenant governor
but this, 1t is believed Will narrow
down so that by the time the conven
ton arrives the Taggart crowd Will
have its mind fully made up as to who
shall be nominated. and Ii will then
proceed to put it over.
Boehnes interview was given out at
Washington. In 1t he says that he is
not out of the fight for the nomination
for Governor. and that he will not
withdraw until he learns positive! J
that the machine has the thing sewc1
up tight with its unfair and rottcn
methods that it will be useless to con :
tinue the fight Those who know the
real situation here say that Boehne
may as we'll get out at once. for the
machine already has the nomination so
firmly in its grasp that it will be i'm
possible for the opposition to defeat
it Therefore, Ii is taken to mean that
Boehne is in readily out of the race.
As soon as it became known, a few
days ago, that the Democrats had de :
cided on their four men for delegates
at large to the national convention
things began to happen. II was learn
ed that the big four decided on by
the managers was Thomas Taggart
Senator Shively. Senator Kern. and
stephen B. Fleming, Of Fort Wayne.
This fact was published in this city
and in papers throughout the state,
and it caused some stir. Maj. G. Y.

RAlSTON'S NOMINATION

he is still in the race for the nomina
tion for Governor against Ralston. he
did not get a delegate at the primaries
in any of the ten counties on Satur-
day.
The Raiston managers are now say
ing that Ralston will have not less
than 1900 delegates Instructed for him
before the state convention is held.
There will be a total of LAB delegates
in the convention. This would leave
nearly $50 delegates who would not he
for Ralston or who would not be in
structed. but this would not be enough
to dol Boehne or any other candidate
any good. Therefore. the nomination

to see about it. He is Menzies man.
and he did not propose to have his
man overlooked. He held conferences
with some of the party leaders here
and told them that Menzies must go on
the delegation as member of the
big four"
The result is that 1t is now almost
certain that Fleming will be taken Off
the list and Menzies will be substitute
ed. One of the close political friends
of Fleming says that while Fleming
would like to go to the convention as
a delegate at large. he is willing. to
step aside for Menzie. because of
Menzies' long record as a delegate at
large. This man said that Nenzies is
well along in years. and that this may
he the last time he will have an OPP
portunity TO enjoy the honor, and that
this situation will appeal TO Fleming.
Therefore. it looks now like Menzies
and not Fleming will be chosen. 1t
has been suggested that perhaps Flem-
ing might go to the convention as "A
delegate from the Twelfth district but
this is said to be unlikely because
Judge a. A. Adams of the Suprem
court who lives at Columbia City, and
Marice Meier, of Fort Wayne. are
slated for the two places as delegates
from that district.

the selection of electors favorable to
the president, and the progressives
those for Roosevelt AS the progress
siyes are almost certain to be in con-
troll the Taftites, the politicians say,
will bolt the convention and hold a
meeting of their own. Then they Will
