INDIANAPOLIS. Aug. 20. - Five persons were seriously injured today and forty bruised and cut by the collapse of a grandstand seating 300 rersons in University park at the formal notification Of Governor Mar shall of his nomination for vice president The injured were carried into the Indiana Democratic club nearby or were taken to hospitals and the notification ceremonies pro- ceeded
 The grand stand had been set on an asphalt pavement directly back of the speakers stand. Judge Alton B. Parker of New York, representing the notification committee was in the midst of his address when the stand swayed and sank slowly to the street ard men and women in the seats were piled together among the tan gled timbers of the structure.
 Several thousand massed in front oe the speakers platform crowded about the fallen stand and many men helped those unhurt to scramble to their feet and bore the injured to the clubhouse MT Taggart national committeeman from Indiana, quieted the crowd. shouting that no one had been injured and Judge Parker went on with his speech.
 He was followed by Governor Mar shall accepting the nomination. Gov ernOr Marshall attacked the republi- can party on the grounds that it had fostered special privilege to the point of making men everywhere socialistic in theory if not in conduct .- In this connection, he said:
 Tt is idle for a thoughtful man in America, whether millionaire or pau Der, to longer play the ostrich Safety does not consist in hiding ones head in the sands of either sentiment or hope It is foolish for the vastly rich to keep on insisting that more and more shall be added to their riches through a spacious system of special legislation ostensibly enacted to run the government, in reality enacted to loot the people.
 Tt is worse than ignorance for them to smile at the large body of intelli- gent Americans who regard them selves as fortunate if the debit and credit accounts of life balance at the end of the year; and to assume the mighy many, who are becoming con- vinced that that social system that we call democracy is but glittering generality, will long endure the in- dustrial slavery being produced.
 Whether voting the ticket or not. men everywhere looking upon the awful injustice of this economic sys- tenn are becoming socialistic in the cry if not in conduct.
 And shall any fair minded man say that if it rebounds to the inter ests of the people of this country that a hundred men shall control it's business to the good of everyone. that there is anything fallacious in the theory that government instead of transferring business to a favored few for the benefit of all should it. self discharge that business for the benefit of all
 T do not hesitate to say that if It be impossible to restore this re- public to it's ancient ideals; which I do not believe, and I must make the ultimate choice between the Paternalism of the few and the so-
 
 my house with the throbbing heart of humanity.
 The dscOntent in republican ranks is democratic discontent How much of it has reached the point where weared with the bad workings of a good system. it is willing to topple that system over and try something new l cannot prophecy.
 But ! am cutie sure that what ever badges men may wear in Amer ica this year, whatever ballots they may vote and whatever battle cries they may utter, there are but three grades of citizens.
 ''The first grade is made up of the favored few, their hangers on and their beneficiaries, who think the eagle is upon the dollar, not as an emblem of liberty but as an emblem of power and who look upon gov ernment as an annex to their busi- ness affairs; these are they who if the past years of republican misruiC have turned the temple of constitu- tlonal freedom into a money-changers mart and have made of the co-or- dinate branches of the government obeisant lackeys of the jingling guirea.
