Colonel James vandcrbergh Parker.

who also will receive the principal Of
a trust fund created for the nephew's

There was difficulty in proving the

renounced the gift and it was at her
request that Colonel Parker removed
the provision from his will by the un-
usual method of tearing out the paea
instead of adding codicil. 1t was
necessary to obtain the testimony of
Mrs. Richmond as to the tearing out of
the page before the mutilated document
could be admitted to probate. Colonel
Parker divided most of his estate
among relatives. He left $4,000 to

Party Politics Practised to

War to Victory,
Campaign keynote
Hays in State Convention
Indicates National Pol
icy in November

INDIANAPOLIS, May 29.-"Win the
war by victory and not by compromise
bargaining,' was the keynote of the
convention of Indiana Republicans.
which nominated state ticket and
adopted a platform for the November
election here to-day. The delegates
and spectators at times wildly applaud
ed the patriotic sentiments expressed
by The speakers and in the platform,
which was submitted to the convention
by VIII II. Hays, chairman of the Re
publican National Committee, a fact
which gave to the platform an added
significance as an indication of the ma
tional policy Of the Republican party.
This indication was strengthened. it
WAS said, by the speeches of United
States Senators Harry S. New and
James E. Watson, who pledged that the
Republican party would support the
war with unlimited means. but at the
same time reserving the right to criti-
cize corruption and inefficiency in its
conduct. Governor James P. Goodrich,
of Indiana, as temporary chairman, also
spoke along similar lines.
Nominations for only three places
on the state ticket were contested the
majority of the places being filled by
the adoption of a blanket resolution
Most OF these were denominations Of
present state officers.
Calls Wilson Uncompromising
Declaring that President Wilson is
the most astute leader the Democratic
party ever had, Senator New in his
speech as permanent chairman assert
ed that he is also the "most uncom-
promising in his partisanship of any
man who has occupied the White House
since the DAYS of Andrew Jackson -
Senator New continued:
president Wilson is partisan in
everything he does or thinks-as adroit
the slogan of his party in the cam
paign before Us is to be Stand by the
President and the attending argu-
ment that, if one is patriot and a
true American, he must elect the can
didates OF the Presidents party for
seats in Congress in order that he
may have support in that body; or
that if one fails to support those can
aidates. he votes to dfscredit the
President and his administration and
gives aid and comfort TO our enemy in
arms.

the Civil War.
Senator New, in conclusion, "is, Go

that have to do with the winning Of the
war, but, make no mistake, we abate no

particle of our devotion to the party
OF our choice and yield nothing of our
principles, but reassert them"
Asserting that the supreme duty
of every individual and every political
party is to win the war, the platform
submitted by the resolutions commit
tee declares that every action of the
Republican party in state and nation
shall be determined solely by how we
can add most TO the sum total of war
good"
The plank dealing with the war was
written by VIII II. Hays, chairman Of
the Republican National Committee,
who was chosen chairman of the reso-
lutions committee. The plank in part
follows:
"ln Congress Republicans have given
their votes, often the deciding votes.
for the grant of every power and all
the money demanded by the Admins
tration In this course of action they
VIII persist without wavering or
shadow of turning.
This is the country's war, and We
charge and deplore that the party in
power IS guilty of practising petty
partisan politics to the serious detri-
ment of the country's cause.
We insist that this cease, and we
appeal to all patriots, whatever their
polltlcs, to aid US in every way pos
sibie in our efforts to require that
partisan politics be taken out and kept
out OF the war management. In this
emergency we call upon all men and
women to support the government
without thought of party.
We insist that every possible eff
cient instrument and all possible men
and material which are available shall
be used to aid in winning the war. and
that ineffcicncy shall be replaced by
efficiency wherever found
Loyal Criticism Defended
The platform denources any criticism
of public officials when such criticisms
are inspired by partisanship or dis
loyalty but declares that courageous
and loyal criticism of corruption and
inefficiency should be defended.
1t declares that the Republican, party
stands for peace by victory, and never
a peace secured by compromise of bar
gains Of principles which would violate
American rights, interests and honor
and make of our sacrifice a sacrilege,
to be made again by our grand
children. 1t also declares for "sane
preparation now for the solution of
the problems, immeasurable in COM
pexity and magnitude. which come
after the war. To this end
we promise a forward stepping as we'll
as a forward looking programme for
labor, for business and for the farmer"
The platform also reaffirms the be-
tariff and the rehabilitation of pri-
vately owned, but government aided

1918 WHEAT TO BE SOLD ON
BASIS OF TERMINAL CHARGES

'Millers are expected to buy wheat
on basis of terminal prices,-$2.26 at
Chicago and Milwaukee and $2.215 at
Minneapolis less freight and ham
ding charges, Magnus Swenson, Food
Administrator for Wisconsin, answered
inquiries made to the Food Admins
tratiOn.
THE price of wheat per bushel at
elevators based on federal grades
should be slightly less than the Chica-
go and Milwaukee price of 1925 or
the Minneapolis price of $2.215. The
slight decrease is allowed because of
the cost of handling at country eleva-
tor, the freight charge to terminal
market, the terminal charges includ-
ing commission, switching amounting
to 21ac per bushel and the profit to
the local elevator.
No excessive profit will be permit

the price offered by the miller or ele-
vator, he may ship his wheat to the
