for years, the recognized head of the
democratic machine organization In
Indiana. This faction is not particular
ly friendly to Senator Kern. =
Among the republicans there Is q
widespread opposition to Watson. They
are united onj Sew.
For some time there has been a great
deal ot New and Taggart" talk. Dem
ocrats and republicans alike have in
dulged in this talk. There have been
some signs indicating that such a
movement throughout the state has
had more than mere accidental nour-
iShment.
When Joseph l.. Bell of Indianapolis,
a Taggart lieutenant, gave out an in
terview in Washington recently, claim
ing Indiana for Wilson and Taggart,
but falling to mention Kern's name, In
diana observers insisted that ii was an
other symptom of the New and Tag
/ gart' movement. kern's friends here
are much wrought up over the inter-
view Some proclaim their intention to
retaliate on Rcll in some manner
Il seems to be plain that Watson does
not have the same kind of earnest and
cordial support among republicans that
is given New. The general impression
appears to be that Watson will have a
hard time to pull through, no matter
what happens to New.
Neither party has any advantage in
Indiana from the vice presidential situa-
tiot, for the state is certain to furnish
the next Vice President. cha rleS w.
Fairbanks and Vice President Marshall
both live in this city.
In View of all of these circumstances.
II there is any man living within the
confines of civilization who can guess
the outcome of he Indiana election he
has something on his fellow men of In
diana.

AUSTRIANs PRAISE BULGARS.
Prompt Declaration of War Agains
Rumania Gratifes Vienna.

VIENNA. September .. via Berlin to
London September 4.-rhe Austrian
newspapers are devoting much space
to lauding Bulgaria. whose entry into
conflict with Rumania was fastened by
the demand of the Rumanian minister
at Sofia for his passports. 1t is CON
tended that Rumanias declaration
against Bulgaria was due to Russias 5
pressure.
The latest reports from Transatlantic,
il is contended, prove that the Ruma-
mans and Russians started hoStilities
a full hour before the Rumanian min
lister at Vienna. Navrocordato, pre-
sented the note to the Austrian gov
erument declaring war.
The people of Vienna accept the new
situation philosophically. finding com
fort in the thought that the list of their
enemies soon must be exhausted. The
Rumanian declaration seems to have i'm
portance here only SO far as a longer
front now is exposed to the Russians
and there are half million new troops
to meet.
Evening star., 1916-09-04
German-American Vote.

Much depends. it is believed here. on
what the German American will do at
election. Democrats and republicans
alike are soft pedaling this question,
because neither side feels confident of
ability to control this vote. Many lead
ing Germans of the state arc support
ing Wilson. and democrats say that
this fact is an indication Of the atti-
tude of the other Germans of the state.
Besides. Albert Sahm Of this city, a
recognized leader Of this element in
Indiana, has been appointed member
Of the democratic national campaign
committee. This is recognized a
heavy bid for the German American
vote. Sahm has accepted the appoint
nent and is actively at work.
But republicans are saying that the
bulk Of the German-American vote is
against Wilson and that it will show
up 50 at the election. Republican man
layers are counting on lot of silent
work being done by this element
'against Wilson.
The democrats also are making much
out Of the record made by the demo :
cratic Congress They point to the fed
cral reserve law the rural credits law
and numerous other reform laws enact :
ed by the democrats AS proof that that
party has made good record. They
Ia single one Of these laws that they
would repeal if returned to power.
When it comes to the Mexican policy
