fight on the question of whether
Elmore BARGE. Of Monticello. or Ed.
Simon, of Hammond, should serve
as the Tenth districts member of
the resolutions committee OF the
democratic state convention was
carried before the credentials COM
mittee Wednesday night by Simon

was ignored by BARGE, who contin-
ued TO hold his seat in the resolu-
tons committee He was upheld by
members of the resolutions com
mittee and the Lake county crowd,
supporting Simon. finally gave UP
he fight.
The controversy grew out of the
question of whether proxies should
have been permitted to BE voted in
the Tenth district caucus At the
caucus the Tenth district chairman
ruled that all legally executed pro-
xies of delegates should be voted,
but the supporters of BARGE, who
were anti-home rule men, appealed
from the decision OF the chairman
and the meeting voted that none but
delegates. who We're present should
vote. On the vote than taken, BARGE
was declared elected to the commit
tee by vote of % to H. Had the
proxies held by Lake and Tippecanoe
county delegates been voted, Simon
would have been elected, his friends
said.
SHOULD HAVE BEEN VOTED
The latter appealed to the creden-
tials committee and this committee,
after prolonged deliberation, ruled
that the proxies should have been
voted. The committee was informed
by W. w. Spencer. leader of the
home rule" crowd, that the rules
of the democratic state committee
authorized the voting of proxies.
Unable then to say whether
BARGE or Simon had been elected to
sit on the resolution committee, the
credentials committee ruled that
neither man had been elected The
committee ordered another meeting
of the Tenth district delegation
d
tions committee member. BARGE and
Simon had been called before the
credentials committee to hear this
ruling. After it had been made BARGE
returned to the room where the res
olutions committee was in session
and resumed his seat as a memlser
of that committee. despite the Gre
dentials committees ruling. The
Lake county crowd gathered a group
Of delegates together at 1880 D.
m. and held an election, declaring
Simon the districts choice as mem
Der of the resolutions committee
DEMANDS BARCE's ELECTION
Simon, learning that BARGE was
seated on the committee, went into
the committee room shortly before
midnight and demanded that BARGE
be put out of the room. The resolu-
tions committee then held a confer
ence after which the members an
nounced that BARGE would be retain
ed on the committee. They said
the credentials committee had no
authority to determine membership
of the resolutions committee.
The Lake county crowd, fighting
to unseat BARGE, said that at the
bottom of the affair. the fight was
on the wet and dry" question. They
said they regarded BARGE as a dry
while Simon. they said. was a lib
eral."
