Indianapolis. Ind. July Son next
Monday, a week from today. Woodrow
Wilson is to attend a meeting of the
Democratic national committee at Chi
cago where it probably will be decided
who is to be the Democratic national
chairman for the coming campaign.
Word has been sent to this city that
Wilson will stop off here on his way to
Chicago and see Governor Marshall.
and 1t is possible that Marshall will go.l
to Chicago with him for the meeting.
Nothing definite is known as to just
when Wilson will get here, ard for that
reason the local Democrats are up in
the air in regard to whether to ar
range a reception for him. II he comes
ON Sunday there will be no political re-
ception, 1t is said. but IL he arrives at
any other time. when the Democrats
can have chance at it. they say they
will frame up reception for him.
1t may be that he will not leave his
train here at all, though it is under
stood that he will. If he does not Gov
ernor Marshal probably will Join him at
the depot and go on to Chicago with
him. The last time Wilson was here he
was the guest of Marshall at the lat
There is no question but what Wilson
will have ample opportunity either on
this visit or at some other time to meet
and get acquainted with all of the
Democratic patriots in the state who
viii be willing to accept appointments
as postmasters in case of his election
They will be on hand to assure him of
their undying fealty to him and his
cause and to make it plain that they
will be ready to answer any call that
he may see fit to pat In for them.
Governor Marshall and Mrs. Marshall
have been the most photographed per-
sons In the country the last week with
the exception of Governor Wilson and
his family OF course. the New Jersey
candidate and his family are the lead
Ing figures in the Democratic side of
the political fight. but the Indiana cou-
pie play good second. Mr. and Mrs.
Marshall have been photographed in
their home, on the porch, on the street
and everywhere else where the photo
graphers could get at them. The Gov
ernor himself has been photographed
also in his office, both while he was
alone and when surrounded by friends.
These photographs have been sent all
over the United States, and hundreds
USED
use them in special articles on the
Democratic nominees. OF course there
will be more publicity given to Wilson
and Marshall in this way than will be
given to Taft and Sherman, because
they are comparatively new characters
in national life. and less is known of
| them than OF Taft and Sherman. who
have been before the public and in po-
litfcal and official life longer than the
Democratic nominees.
1t is expected that within the next
few days the third party promoters in
Indiana will announce the time for
holding their state convention and also
the time for the election of delegates
from Indiana to the third party ma
tional convention. which is to be held
| at Chicago on August 6. It so happens
that the Chicago convention and the
Indiana Republican state convention
will be held on the same day, and this
probably will keep a good many Indi-
| ana Republicans from attending one or
| the other. 1t is known that many Indi-
| ana republicans who might otherwise
attend the Chicago convention to see
what goes on will remain here for the
state convention, because they propose
| to remain regular with their party,
| Edwin M Lee, the state chairman Of
the third party, has not yet announced
the names of the members of the state
Ecommitte, which he was authorized at
the recent conference to appoint but
this he says. will be done son.
The third party has come to he
known here, as well as over the coun-
try. as the Bull Moose" party. and IL
looks like the name will stick to the
