Some of the women went to Vesey
yesterday and tried OF induce him to
make a report on the bill. but they re-

up in arms and they are bringing all
kinds of pressure TO bear on Vesey to
force him to make report on the bill.
There has been swift rustling OF

dtdate for some time. republicans were
today weighing the names of John W

fact ts that his name is being boosted

case Of Mr.. Dyer, there is no longer a
surprise as he is said ODE well in
formed regarding what has already
been done toward furthering his nomin-

The main subject for discussion at
the courthouse meeting for republicans
tonight is whether or not the party
shall go into the campaign as the re-
publican party,lor drop state and nation

as against the democrats in power. This
much is certain. The situation is not
such that anyone can dictate. and get

PROGRAM
Claim to Have Enough Votes In
Senate to Defeat Measure
II House Passes II.
TIMES BUREAU.
AT STATE CAPITAL.

INDIANAPOLIS. IND, Jan. 25.-In-
terests that are opposing the enact
ment of state wide prohibition law
have adopted a definite program Of op-
position for their fight. and they are
working on it with might and main
First, they propose to make every pos
sible effort to prevent the passage of
the prohibition bill by seeking to induce
the legislators to believe that the best
way to handle the whole situation is to
beat the prohibition bill and then pass
the constitutional convention bill. They
explain that a constitutional convention
can best handle the prohibition aues-
ton and that that is the way it should
be done
If they succeed in beating the pro
hibition bin they will next start fight
in favor of the adoption of the amend
ment to the state constitution intro
duced by Senator Porter. of Washing
ton. for state wide prohibition. They
win say that it would be best to sub
nit the question to vote Of the people.
They hope they will be able to put this
through instead Of passing the consti-
tutional convention bill. If they should
happen to succeed in adopting the
Porter amendment resolution it would
also have to be adopted by the legis-
lature Of 1919 before it could be sub
mftted to the people at the regular
election of 1920
If they were 20 force the adoption or
the Porter resolution these interests
would then tell the legislators that it
was unnecessary to pass the constitu-
tional convention bill. because the
Porter amendment would take care of
the whole situation. Thus they would
hose to prevent the calling Of conVen-
tion.
These interests understand, of course.
that it is practically impossible TO
amend the constitution. for the amend
ment must be submitted at a regular
election. when politics and political
parties are involved. and the whole sub
iect is thus injected into party politics.
The result is that amendment is
seldom adopted
If these forces are able to carry out
this program it would mean that Indi-
ana would not have prohibition at the
earliest before 1921, with a likelihood
that it would have it at all
Friends of the prohibition movement
fully understand this plan of campaign
by the liquor interests and they are de-
termined that it shall not be carried
out. They are insisting on a square
