HARRY STARR MUST
GIVE HIS EVIDENCE
Summons from Campaign
Committee Sent Former
Local Boss"

Harry G. Starr, formerly sole propri-
etor of the Wayne County Republican
political machine, which is in exist
ence but not as effective as of yore,
is to be compelled to testify before
the senate Investigating committee.
Mr.. Starr is greatly displeased at the
idea Of being dragged into the politi-
cal limelight. He wired to Washington
that it would not be convenient for
him to testify now and asked to be al
lowed to defer his appearance before
the committee until a later date. but
Chairman Clapp wired back that Mr.
Starr was wanted at once If he does
not come at once he will be subpoe-
naed.
If Starr yields to the wishes of the
committee and comes, he may go on
the stand Saturday.
Hears of News DoubIe-cross.
Chairman Clapp has heard an inter-
esting story as to how Harry S. New
is said to have been double-crossed
in the campaign of 1904, and he wants
to ask Mr.. Starr about it. In that year
Charles w. Fairbanks wasa candidate
for Vice President and, as his election
seemed a foregone conclusion, there
was deep interest in the selection of
his successor in the Senate.
There We're several aspirants, in
cluding Harry s. New, James A. Hem
enway, Charles d. Landis and Edgar
ID. Crumpacker. The Fairbanks organi-
zation, which had control of the state
machine, was favorable to Mr.. Hem
enway. Capt. New at that time was In
diana member of the national commit
tee and was in charge of Western
headquarters at Chicago.
Senator Clapp hears that Capt New
obtained $50, 600 of national committee
funds and turned it over to the state
organization at indianapolis, to be
used for the national ticket, but when
the money got to Indianapolis it fell
into the hands or organization men,
who used it in the counties where it
would do the most good in electing a
Legislature that would carry out the
organization program with reference
Ito the senatorial succession and that
thus Capt. New. himself candidate
for the Senate, furnished the financial
ammunition that was largely respon-
sible for his own undoing
Capt. New is understood by Senator
Clapp to have expressed some decid-
ed opinions on this subject and he
may be called as a witness. Mr.. Starr
was member of the executive com
mittee of the Republican state commit.
teer in that campaign and Senator
tClapp believes he can throw some
light on what appears to be a rather
grewsome joke played on Capt. New

CITY STREET CAR
LEAVES THE TRACK

Two inches of compact street paving
was all that prevented seven passen-
gers on a southbound Eighth street
car from receiving serious injuries
when the car left the track at South
Eighth and C streets last evening at
7:15 o'clock. The car was running on
the temporary track which the COM
pany has placed on the side of the ex-
cavations for the permanent improve
ment of the roadbed on South Eighth
street.
The uneven condition of the tracks
caused the car to leave the rails and
careen towards the excavation II
plowed along on the ties and dirt and
when the motorman stopped the car 1t
was on the brink of the trench

WAYNE SETS PACE
The Vote in This County In
dicates State Vote.

AS Wayne county goes. so goes the
state.
This statement has been made by
politicians time and time again. For
mer election returns have substantial
ed the statement.
In 1S4S, when Taylor was the presi-
Dental candidate of the old Whig
party, out of which the Republican
party grew, the total vote of Indiana
for Taylor was 11,17S as compared
with 1925 for Cass, the Democratic
nominee, and 1.126 for VanBuren, the
Free Soil candidate. In this election
Wayne county gave Cass a slight ma
jority.
In 1860 Richmond, alone, gave Lin
coin a majority of 1921. Lincoln car
ried the state by 139,033 as compared
with 1850 for Douglass. Morton's s
majority in Wayne county was 2,S74.
This majority was only exceeded by
that of Marion county in which Indi-
annapolis is located. Morton's state
majority was 1883.
