INDIANAPOLIS. Ind. Dec. IL
The public eye IN indiana still is
planted directly on the 1917 legisla-
ture and the clouds that are arising
cut OF a formerly very clear sky TO
darken the chances Of an uuinter-
csting session. The liquor question
instead OF growing less ID. import
ance. is taking on "a more and more
animated tone. From this distance
IL looks like the big problem OF the
coming genera assembly.
II has as many varied angles as
usually. Many leaders in both par
ties here already are declaring that
state wide prohibition bill will be
enacted. Others are declaring that
such a bill will be side-tracked at
the last moment by the calling Of
o constitutional convention, through
legislative resolution. Such con-
stitutioual convention undoubtedly
would be the battle ground for the
friends and foes of the liquor busi-
Less.
Goodrich Is Opposed.
The third probability was injected
into the situation late this week.
when reports from those closely in
touch with James p. Goodrich. the
rewly elected governor, let it be
known that Mr. GOOdrich's attitude
would not be i'm favor of a state
wide prohibition bill Mr.. Good

statement concerning the situation,
but persons very close 10 him are

mbition law This does not mean.
necessarily, that such a bill Will not
be introduced and possibly enacted
into law But il means that Good
rich. his friends say, Will not take
the responsibility for any such enact
ment or urge it,
And so. the story goes. that Good
rich viii urge-if ne is confronted
directly with the liquor problem.
and he undoubtedly will be so con-
fronted-that the legislature enact

Ai-t IlEUl To N0At Oh the question OF
whether statewide prohibition shall
become a part OF the statutes. There
are those here who declare that
statutory prohibition Will not be
constitutional and that only "a con-
stitutional amendment could be eff
fective to accomplish the ends the
foes Of the liquor traffic desire. But
that the new governor viii seek to
eNade the responsibility of decisive
cction on the liquor question now
seems to be taken for granted here.
Not Campaign Issue.
The gOVernor-e elects reason for
taking this stand. it is explained. lies
in the fact that liquor was not n
public issue in the campaign that
mas just closed and that the people
were not voting for their candidates
because they were for OF against the

Wilbur w. Marsh, Treasurer Of Ma
tional Committee, Tells How a
Campaign Is Financed and
Appeals for Aid.
By WILBUR W. MARSH
Treasurer, Democratic National
Committee.

Where does 1t come from-the money
for this campaign button, that poster,
this banner, that electric sign, this
special train of women speakers, that
paid ad? How many voters stop to
think about these things? Preslden-
tial campaigns cost money-some of
them millions of dollars. Where does
the money come from?
The old methOd-patente1, perfect
ed, and perpetuated by the Republican
Party-was simplicity itself, in its re-
suits. It was the touch system. For
the Big Bosses-Llfe Insurance and
Railroad companies, Steel, OIL and
kindred corporations-fifty thousand
dollars was "fair" touch, a quarter
of million was a "liberal" touch.
They stood" for tout of gratitude
for favors expected They knew why
they gave up" and how to "get it
hack."-The Chiefs Of the touches"
made up the Invisible Government of
the United States.

trolled this years Republican conven-

Convention four years agO-and Is

HUGHES FOE TO FARMERS.

Public records show the kind Of a
"friend" that Charles E. Hughes, Re-
publican candidate for the Presidency,
is to the farmers. While Governor Of
New York, he vetoed the following
measures:
For Farmers Institute work, &c.
600.
For specialist to fight insect
pests, $500.
For dissemination of information
concerning cheap farms to be
had in New York State, $4,000.
For improving New York State
College of Agriculture, $1,000.
For enlargement of State Veteri-
nary College, $4,000.
For maintaining a department of
veterinary science in the State
University, $4,000.
For investigation and extermina-
ton of contagious diseases Of
plants, $1,000

In Senate in which were

Bristow of Kansas, Clapp of Min

strongly progressive, but all Re-

Aldrich and Penrose, Smoot and
Gallinger, that dictated all the i'm

through that body. And just SO
it would be in any other Republi-

PEACEORWARTHEISsUE

Speaking at Battle Greek, Mich, Sep
tomber 80. last, Theodore Roosevelt
said:
~ have been asked what ! would
have done had ! been President when
the lusitania was torpedoed.
~ would have instantly taken pos.
session Of every German ship interned
in this country and then would have
said: Now we'll discuss, not what
we will give, but what we will give
oact'"
THAT WOULD HAVE MEANT
WARi
II would have been challenge to
the German nation to a trial at arms.
II would have been violation of ev-
cry principle Of neutrality, and at
time, with all Europe under arms.
when this country was the trustee Of
and the only nation capable of uphold
ing neutral rights.
The seizure itself would have been
an act of war. just as the seizure of
German interned ships by Portugal
vas regarded as an act of war and
was followed by an Immediate dec.
aration of war by Germany against
Portugal.
Following the same line of war talk,
speaking at Lewiston, Maine August
81. last. Mr., Roosevelt said:
"The policies of Americanism and
preparedness, taken together, mean ap-
piled patriotism. There should be cor
relation OF policy and armament.
America. which sprang to the
succor of Cuba in 1898, has stood an
idle spectator of the invasion of Bel
gium the sinking of the Lusitania. the
continued slaughter of our own citi-
zens. and of the reign of anarchy, ra-
pine and murder in Mexico"
These are the deliberate declara-
tiOns of the men with whom Candl-
date Hughes has said. ~ M IN COM
PLETE ACCORD" and Hughes has
publicly congratulated Roosevelt for
what he said.
From their public statements the
conclusion Is inevitable that If either
Roosevelt or Hughes had been Presi-
dent when the Army of the Kaiser in
vaded Belgium we would have had war
with Germany; that when the Lusi-
tania was sunk that we-would have
had war with Germany, and that now
we would have instant war with Ger
many over the submarine raids In the
Atlantic ocean off the Massachusetts
coast.
Must we not agree with President
Wilson when speaking at Shadow
Lawn on September 80, last he said:
Am | not right that we must draw
the conclusion that if the Republican
party is put into power at the next
election, our foreign policy will be ra-
Ideally changed?
81 cannot draw any other inference.
All our present foreign policy is wrong
they say, and If it is wrong and they
are men Of conscience they must
change it.
land if they are going to change it,
in what direction are they going to
change? THERE Is ONLY ONE
CHOICE AS AGAINST PEACE, AND
THAT is WAR"
80 other conclusion can be drawn.
What is YOUR conclusion, thought
fll citiZeE?
In the last analysis, the election will
be decided by the farmer vote. And
SO on the farmer is the responsibility
of whether this country shall have
pence or war.
The only assurance that the country
will not be needlessly plunged into
war is for YOU to vote for Woodrow
Wilson.
FOR PEACE OR WAR your con-
science and your vote must decide.
