PAT LYNCH MAKES
ADROIT 0VERTuRES
FOR PARTY SUPPORT

Patrick J. Lynch of New Castle,
Sixth district chairman, was present
and he was in his glory. Before the
meeting, during it's progress and after
ward, Lynch lost no chance to press
home his political aspirations. His
speech centered about the tariff prob
lem. He defended the high protective
planks of past platforms and pleaded
for the establishment of duties that
would protect the interests of Ameri-
can labor.
Although he did not come out into
the open with an appeal for votes for
his candidacy against Judge Comstock,
in the race for representative, he
adroitly drove home his point.
'In the lean years." he said, 81 went
up and down the district canvassing
for the Republican party. did it not
for reward, but because of the love
l have for the party. Today l am not
asking you for a reward, but If I am
nominated l will deliver a series of
speeches that will make my efforts
of the last campaign look life thirty
cents. I am strong, l love to fight,
love to deliver election speeches, and
I am willing to give my time and ef-
forts"
Mr. Lynch praised the Republican
organization in Union County and COM
plimented the work Of Oliver Lafuze,
county chairman.

Seldom does a candidate for state
office deviate from the beaten path
of the spellbinder's oratory, but A. T.
Claypool, of Petersburg, candidate for
state statistician, turned the trick and
made what seemed to be decided hit
and a vote-getting speech.

Mr.. Claypool you've had four trav-
cling statesmen in that position, but l

So that you can pronounce it and know

fed 4 farmer can do that, and l want

Claypool said he believed the can
diaate from the Sixth district for SEN
ator would be elected, but the refer
ence to James Eli Watson fell on
hard ground, Not ripple of interest
was discernible on the audience,

Governor Ralston asserted" began
Mr.. Goodrich, that if business
methods were applied to the state in
stitution one-half million dollars could
be saved the state. What an admiss-
ion of Democratic mismanagement!
And now, instead of applying the bust
ness methods characteristic of the Re-
publican party, the governor proposes
a board of four men at a salary of
$4,000 each, with costly machinery to
operate it, to control these institu-
lions.
Proposal Multiplies Officers.
IF he had studied the reports of
the central boards of other states he
would have discovered that his pro
posal multiplied officials, increased ex-
penses, and introduced politics into
the management of the state institu-
tions.
"A casual inspection of the records
of the various boards of the state in
situations shows a fragrant series of
abuses. At the Central Hospital for
ending Sept. 80, 1915. shows the per
ern Indiana Hospital for the Insane,
Dr. Smith shows the per capita cost
to be $52.S5, difference of SO per
cent between a Democratic and a Re-
publican regime. The reports of the
state institutions show that at one
place, flour was bought for $3.50 a
barrel. and the same brand at another
institution cost $698. Whence this
difference of so per cent?"
Argued for Economy.
Mr.. Goodrich argued that when the
Democrats assumed the government of
Indiana they promised economy, re-
duced taxes, fewer state officials, and
an economic administration. Instead
of reduction, a comparison of the
Ralston administration with that of
Hanly shows an increase in expendi-
lures OF $2,400,O0O. The per capita
cost of caring for the inmates of the
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1916-01-12

benevolent institutions is $58 more
than under the Durbin administration.
Ii the Republicans we're in control the
cost would have been $500, 900 less, the
speaker asserted.
If you examine the report of the
State Board O. Charities you will find"
Mr.. Goodrich contended, that there
is variation of from 80 to 215 per
cent in the cost of administering the
state institutions.
IF the proposed central board of
Governor Ralston were adopted, pro-
fessional politicians and not capable
men would be placed on that board.
Consider what the Democrats did in
