LONDON, May 4.-"There are at

at Fort Wayne

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind. May f.
All nominations in Indiana for con-
gressmen. state senators, represent
atives. judges. prosecuting attorneys,
county officials and township Off
Gals Will be made at the primaries
that will be held throughout the
state next Tuesday. Not only that,
but the party organizations will be
formed at the same primaries and
by the votes OF the same Yoters
that make the nominations.
Ii is a fact that the people Of the
state have evinced but little inter
est in the primaries. and for this
reason there is danger that many
poor nominations may be made
Tuesday. II all Of the voters would
turn out and vote and take the
proper amount Of interest in The
primaries they would be assured of
good, strong, clean tickets every
where, but this is not going TO hap
pen. 1t is quite evident that the
people are interested first in the
war and its prosecution, and that
everything else is secondary to that
issue. 1t is possible that they may
wake up before Tuesday to the i'm
portance OF the primaries and the
necessity for the right kind of nomi-
nations, but il is not at all likely
that they will.
Urges Careful Selections.
One Of the features of the past
week in Indiana politics was the is
suance of a proclamation by Gov.
Goodrich, supported by Michael T..
Foley, chairman of the state coun-
Gil OF defense, and Charles a.
Greenhouse. democratic state chair
man, urging upon the people the
necessity for the nomination of
good men for all of the offices this
year by all political parties, and
primaries and help to make good
nominations. II is the first time.
as far as is known, that a governor
ever issued such an appeal TO the
people, and it remains to be seen
just what the effect will be-
There is one interesting side to
the matter. however, and one that is
gratifying TO the democrats of the
state, and it is that for many weeks
past the democratic state commit
tee has been sending letters and
circulars TO county chairman, pre-
cinct committeeman and other
democratic workers over the state
urging upon them the very same
identical thing that the governor
called 10 their attention in his
proclamation. The democratic or
ganiZatiOn has sought TO impress
on the democrats the idea that now
is the time to determine what kind
Of tickets the party will offer TO the
voters next fall, and that ii is up
10 the democrats TO see TO il that
zone but good men are nominated
for the different offices. Ii has also
constantly drilled it into the demo
Gratis that they should select the
best men possible for precinct COM
mitteemen, and for delegates to the
state convention. in order that the
very best results may be obtained
in the selection of good candidates.
But the democratic organization is
not seeking to detract anything
from the effort of the governor to
induce people TO go to the primaries
and make good selections of strong,
clean men for candidates.

AS soon as the primaries are over

1t is reported that there is a move
on foot among the liquor interests
OF the state 10 make trouble in both
state conventions this year. They
propose to ask for something they
know they cannot get. but they ex-
peCt to make trouble, anyway.
Under the Indiana prohibition
law no beverage can be sold in the
state that contains in excess of one g.
half Of one per cent OF alcohol. This
OF course. bars out all light wines
and all beers as we'll as all stronger
drinks.
The liquor people are now plan
ming 10 go into both state conven-
tons demanding planks in the plat
form for change in the prohibition
law that will legalize the sale Of
light wines and beers that contain
up TO two per cent OF alcohol.
Party leaders who have heard OF
the scheme say that neither party
will listen 10 the demand and that
the declaration Will not be made in
either platform. They say that il
the change was made and the sale
of light wines and two per cent
beers was permitted il would mean
that the liquor people would at
tempt TO sneak in al kinds Of al
coholic drinks and that the officers
would be kept busy testing out the
various kinds OF stuff offered for
sale They say il would mean the
esta blishment OF thousands OF blind
tigers all over the state, because
no one would have any faith in the
good intention OF the lodOr people
20 keep within the law-no matter
what the law might be.
Therefore. the prospect for the
success OF the liquorites in this di-
rection is not very bright.
