BUSH OPPOSED TO GOODRICH PLAN.
lBy Fclix +. Bruner.l

There is a strong probability that the Goodrich CEN
tralization plan will not pass the legislature. at least
in its entirety. 1t is certain that it viii! be the center
OF a strong party fight and may result in the breaking
UP OF the republican party in the legislature and the
consistent defeat of administration measures, as they
come up.
Since the firing of the opening shot in this battle
by Lieut.. Gov. Bush in his speech opening the senate,
in which ne demanded that the people and not the
republican circles here. Bush's speech was a strong
and unmistakable denunciatiOn Of the Goodrich plan.
Ii followed a long and ominous period Of silence, dur
ing which republican leaders spent most OF their time
in wondering what Bush was up to.
They have now received their answer. A hint of
what was coming was contained i'm Bush's announce
ment that he would lame his own committees and
that he did not need the assistance of the republican
state ommitte This announcement was followed by
an effort on the part OF republicans to patch matters
up and make things right with Bush. They passed a
resolution deciding not 10 name the committees. No
one ever heard of a political committee openly naming
Legislative committees.
Their efforts were vain, however. for Bush took
his courage to the senate with him and told the mem
bers of that body exactly what he thought of the idea
Of making the government of Indiana a one-man gov
eminent. There were those who said Bush was not
Ing enough man to lead such a fight, but he has show
and that he, and not Gov. Goodrich, is the president
OF the sena,e.
The chief subject of discussion in legislative cir
cles here is the Bush jenunciation and the effect il
will have on the assembly. That Bush has his followers
especially in the power grab fight, there is no doubt
There is no doubt that these followers of Bush will

HOW TO RAISE AN ARMY.
Indiana Daily News.)

When America does anything, finally. it is reaIy
done. In proof. look at the American expeditionary
force, under Gen. John J. Pershing. Germany looked
or the entrance of the United States into the war. first.
as a gigantic blun-another form of diplomatic note,
Ferhaps-but when the first draft was over and the
kaiser, with all his gang and many sympathizers in
America, too. doubtless, were disappointed at there hav-
ing been no revolt. enemy criticism Of the Yankees was
turned toward the hope that as soldiers they would
make good debaters. They did make good debaters. but
their arguments We're not TO the liking OF Fritz. because
they took on the nature OF advancing. then going for
ward and. finally, pushing ahead again. The German
soldiers could not understand troops that didn't know
when they were beaten" For that very reason, instead
ct being beaten. they won.
The record Of Pershing's men included all the known
feats OF ancient armies and many that made even the
warrior chiefs Of the allied forces shudder for fear the
Yanks would be wiped out. Even when the Yanks got
there. it still was the rule for an attacking force 10
advance and rest. and not to advance again until the
enemy had shown some disposition to retreat Now, the
Americans could not understand this. To them. an
advance meant to go forward-nothing else. So. when
they started. they kept on going. This surprised the
allied chiefs; but, what is more important it surprised
the foe. as we'll and what is most important Of all, il
won battles.
The highest praise has been given the American
fighting machine. How was that army raised? Ii was
raised by the only sensible way To raise an army-that
is. by selective service, CONSUMPTION. The howl was
raised against CONSUMPTION that it was a method OF
autocracy. True; but, when we so forth TO make war
on the devil. fire is necessary. and without fire all the
prayer books in creation can not vein war. Prayer
books have their part. and it is a big part, but no gen
eral would think OF arming his men with New Tesla
ments and sending them 10 capture 42-centimeter guns
The Big Berthas were not TO be captured that way. but,
as Wilson pointed out, with force. force 20 the ut
most"
Let us lay aside all camouhage and look this thing
squarely in the face: Uncle sam won this war because
he ummone force. force TO the utmost" He won il
by being able 10 kill Germans faster than the kaiser :
Ilegions could put our own soldiers out. That was the
only way this war was won.
What. then. OF CONSUMPTION? Shall We sit down and
solemnly vow that never again Will we use a weapon
the weapon of autocracy. to gain democratic ends?
No. unless the league Of nations authorizes il under an
agreement.
That il the task of the peace conference. The peace
conference will hear Prest Wilson. Can not the Ameri-
can people leave it to his wisdom. his honesty. his
sense Of square dealing? We think 80.
