to do her share In problems Of the po-
litical and business world. Mrs. Mar
shall is said to have discussed In de-
tall with her husband his action on
the Baltimore convention, and when 1t
was seen that Marshall was the man
who was going to go on the ticket
with Wilson he wanted to know what
his wife thought about It
1T won't be any harder than being
Governor Of Indiana. and II the party
thinks you are the man 1t only agrees
with my opinion" she said, and that
settled the matter with Governor Mar
shall.
Mrs. Marshall had the honor Of be-
ing the FIRST woman In Indiana to bold
an office. She was appointed county
clerk of Steuben county by her father
and held that Office for a number Of
years.
When Governor Marshall and his
wife were about to be married she de-
cided that her last official act Of the
office would be to make out the mar
rage license. Governor Marshall &c
companied his wife to the county
clerks Office and watched her with
care as she noted the records in the
big book and filed out the license and
watched her as she carefully signed
her fathers name, with her own as
deputy.
Mrs. Marshall, having blotted the
ink, said, "Now we can CO."
"Not yet" laughed Governor Mar
shall
"Why, we are all fxed," explained
Mrs. Marshall, pointing to the license
Eyes, but l have to pay for It." re-
piled the governor. "It's all right for
you to make 1t out but it's up to me
to pay the fee." And be did
Mrs. Marshall is a keen student. and,
having established the practice of go
ing with her husband on all his trips,
be they short or long. they make it a
point to carry along some book
Mrs. Marshall is as much of hu-
manitarian as the governor. A glance
at some Of the bills that have been
passed by the 1911 Indiana legislature
gives an insight into the governor:
To curtail child labor.
To regulate sale of cold storage prod
Icts.
To require hygienic schoolhouses
and medical examination of children
To prevent blindness at birth.
To regulate sale of cocaine and
other drugs.
To provide free treatment for by
drophobia.
To establish public Fairgrounds.
To improve pure food laws.
To protect against loan sharks.
To provide police court matrons.
To prevent traffic in white slaves.
To permit night schools.
To require medical supplies as part
Of train equipment
Governor Marshall has also played
an active part In providing for protec-
ton Of labor, as Is exampied by the
following acts:
To create bureau of inspection
for workshops. factories. mines and
boilers.
70 establish free employment agen-
cies.
To require full train crsYS
To require safety devices On switch
engines
To require efficient headlights on
engines
TO require standard cabooses,
To provide weekly wage, etc
And Governor Marshall has CON
suited with his partner" on all these
bills. He Is quoted as saying a man
can't 20 far wrong In taking the advice
Of a wife-if she Is bis partner as well
1 as his wife.

anxiously wanting to shake his hand In
congratulation over his acceptance as
candidate of vice president on the

have heard what she whispered In his

Mrs. Tom.

johnson For Governor

"A prominent LEGAL democrat, who
claims to be in touch with conditions
in his party throughout the state. up
on being approached by . reporter
with regard to the g~ubernatorial con-
test in his party, stated that judging
from information in his possession and
the tone of the democratic press of the
state, there is no doubt that E. S.
johnson is very decidedly i, the lead
at the resent time, with a constant
upward tendency Of Johnson stock as
the weeks pass.
There is no class of men more in
touch with local and general conditions
than the newspaper publisher. and as
a rule the u~tterances of their papers
pretty accurately voice the sentiment
in their communities. Out of about
fifty democratic papers and the indie
pendent papers with democratic lean
ings, fully forty are pronounced sup
porters of Johnson. This is probably
accounted for by the fact that the news
paper men feel that they have been
wasting their ammunition long enough
in fighting the battles of their party
without any assistance from the
state organization, which has pursued
a policy merely of keeping up a skel-
eton of an organization Throughout the
state ard has made no effort to incense
the party strength. He says the or
g~aniaztion under Chairman Lyons has
contented itself with putting up an
outward show of activity during the
last month or six weeks previous to
the November elections, and has done
absolutely nothing by way of educating
the people to an understanding of
democratic doctrines. Tending to
establish these claims OF recreance to
duty and disregard to party interest
on the part of the organization. this
democrat cites the fact that four years
ago no nominations fur state office
were filed until after the statute of
limitations had run against them and
most of the candidates were only able
to get on the official ballot under the

of a democratic president. gives it up
voluntarily to become his party's can
didate for governor. The nomir alton
for the governorship means nothing,
says this democratic exp ,nent, unless
it is followed by success at the polls
in November. aud here the line of
cleavage is clearly drawn-Johns on
aims to lead his party to victory in
November while Wickhem and his
following regard as paramount to
every other consideration the control of
the organization and the lie counter.
At any rate it is not apparent that
what may develop into a mor or less
heated contest in the primaries can
enhance the chances of democratic sue
cess in November fact that must
have been patent to Mr.. Wickhem's
supporters when they brought him out.
Another decidedly untoward action
on the part of Wickhem and his sup.
porters was in filing q list of delegates
in opposition to the list filed for Will
son While it is true that they give
Wilson's name first place in their mot
to and affect to prefer him as a first
choice, the very fact of their filing en-
opposition list disproves their claims
of friendship to him, and leads to the
conclusion that they only gave his
name the preference because they
knew it would be indiscreet to do 9TH
erwise, being well aware of the over
whelming Wilson sentiment among the
progI essive democrats of the state.
Had they used the motto most to their
liking 1t would have read Harmon
Clark Wilson, etc, as many of the sup
porters of the anti Wilson delegation
have frequently expressed in the course
Of conversation their preference for
Harmon first and Clark second.
To sum the whole matter up briefly,
it may be said that johnson represents
the progressive democracy of the state.
while Wicxhem represents the CON
servatives and what could be more
natural, since johnson abandoned re-
~publicanism and came aver to the dem
ocrats in 1895 because Of his adj

He says that Mr.. Johnson is looked
to by the young and more aggressive rs

party as the man of all others to lead
the charge against the enemy's breast
works, as he bears the reputation of
being a live wire, and there is no
doubt that If he receives the nomina-
ton. which now seems assured, he will
give the republican nominee, whoever
he map be, a lively chase for the gov
ernorship.
This local exponent Of the doctrines
of jefferson and Jackson says that he,
in common with thousands Of other
democrats throughout the state. feel
that johnson is not only logically but
honestly entitled to the party support
in the primary. Johnson. he says,
has been looked to for several years
as suitable gubernatorial material, but
owing to much sickess and several
deaths in the family he has not here

he would not now be a candidate but

is after Mr.. Vansant's scalp. His
splendid work during the late cam
paign when the Democrats were re-
stored TO power by an overwhelming
majority surely deserves our en-
dorsement. He practically gave up
his private business and spent
months planning the defeat OF tine

Friends of McCreary and Beckham

When it comes to making a choice
between McCreary, Beckham and
their friends on one side and Watt
terson, Whallen, Klair, Cantrill and
their satellites on the other. we do
not believe Lincoln county demo-
Gratis will be long about choosing.
One of the biaterest. meanest. and
most undeserved fights ever made
against a politician IN Kentucky is
now being waged against Gov. Nc
Creary and his friends by the Cour-
ier-Journal crowd, in an effort TO
take away the control of the par
tv organization from McCrearv.
Beckham and their friends. Every
democrat in Lincoln who loves his
party and who believes that the men
who carried Kentucky 10000 demo-
cratic last fall and then fulfilled
the party's pledges in the legislature
should be endorsed for their good
work, should make IL a point to be
on hand in Stanford Saturday, May
%, when the county convention will
be held to select delegates to the
state convention, where the battle
will be fought out. Lincoln must
stand by McCreary and his friends.
There is no halfway ground. The
good people of the democracy of the
state are heart and soul with him in
his fight to keen the partv out
of the clutches of the men who
have betrayed it so often and who.
when they have not been able TO
rule, seek nothing but to ruin. Ev-
cry friend of McCreary and of Beck
ham should come TO the front in this
hour of need.
