G. O. P. HOLDING BREATH

WASHINGTON, May 4.-From
coast to coast the G. c. P. today is
holding breath and clinging with
both hands to its seat in the grand
stand while it watches the hair-rais-
ing finish of the two big fights in
Indiana and California.
According to reports coming in at re-
publican headquarte here no political
battle has taken place this year half way
equalling I'm thrills the presidential pri-
maries being held in these two states to-
day.
National committee officials believe
both decisions win be close.
In California Senator Hiram Johnson
and Herbert Hoover. both of them native
sons, will he voted on as party standard
bearer, while In Indiana, four candidates
are in the field: Major General Leonard
Wood, Senator johnson, Gov. Lowden of
Illinois and Senator Harding.
THE BETTING ON
INDIANA RESULT.
The betting here is that these four
aspirants viii come out Of the Indiana
primary In the following order:
johnson. Wood, Lowden, Harding,
without a majority for anybody.
This would mean an uninstructed dele
cation to the Chicago convention, the
Indiana law being that the presidential
preference must be indicated by ma
| tority OF the votes cast otherwise the
states delegation goes without instruc-
tons.
I The battle in Indiana has been the
: hardest fought in any state since the
beasnning Of this campaign

nomination has been up and down and

JOHNSON CHOICE
IN HOOSIER BALLOT

Hiram Johnson is Indiana's choice IN
the republican presidential primaries to
day.
This fact was conceded by republicans
who are close observers Of politics, with
the exception of those who are directly
connected with the campaigns of Senator
Johnson's immediate opponents.
Gov. Frank o. Lowden of Illinois is
expected to make a good showing and
Gen. Leonard Wood is also expected to
be counted among the three leaders.
Senator Warren g. Harding is expected
to trail far behind
Zell c. Swain, Indiana manager for
Senator johnson, expressed his confdencs
in the ability Of his candidate to win.
Harry G.. Hogan, manager for Gen.
Wood, made extravagant claims, declar-
ing his candidate is in a better position
than he was several days ago.
At Lowden headquarters claims that
the Illinois governor would be among
the leaders were made.
1t was also claimed that he would be
the choice if the Indiana delegates re-
gardless of the outcome of the primaries.
Although interest centers in the re-
publican presidential primary race, In
diana voters were expressing their choice
for nominations for governor, members
The vote was expected to be light, es-
pecially in the rural districts where farm
ers are far behind in their spring work
and are taking advantage Of the fine day
to catch up, rather than going to the
polls to vote.
Numerous votes were expected to be
thrown out because OF the writing in OF
the names of candidates.
The state board of election commissions
ers ruled at the last minute that the writ
ing OF the name of candidate on a bal
lot constitute mutilation Of the ballot.
The ruling was made after various
county election boards had ruled that
names could be written in.
This ruling was expected to reduce the
democratic vote considerably.
No candidate for the democratic nomi
nation is entered in Indiana. and for this
reason number of democratic voters
were expected to write the names of their
favorite candidates on the ballots,
1t was feared that the ruling of the
state board did not reach voters in time
to prevent the mutilation on hundreds of
ballots.

FEW COMPLAINTS
ABOUT SUPPLIES.
Only in a few instances were there any
complaints about election supplies, and
these concerned blue pencils used In
marking the ballots.

the pencils were missing from the sup
plies.
The necessary election euuipmsnt was
