NEW IS COMING.

sen Harry New is TO come back 70 Indiana for
the final days % his primary fight That il good
news for he will not have 70 depend upon the air
and the decadent party machine give the voters
the facts which they should know about him.
The truth f. that the New campaign Is sagging.
The old organization wheel horses find the voters
and members Of their party sadly apathetic towards
MS "v1ndicatIon" for his stand for Newberry The
voters seem more interested in the speeches OF Mr.
Beveridge and in his challenge to New to take
stand for decency OF the ballot
The efforts 20 arouse interest in New the old
tricks tried often IN the past but too showroom 70
work with dead a load
There Is tho whispering campaign, whose pattern
ity 1s not acknowledged by the New machine but
which IS distinctly It's offspring. which tries to say
that Beveridse was a Hun during the war. that he
was disloysl and that his is proved by
writings printed BY such journals as the Saturday
Evening Post. Golfers and Review OF Reviews.
Thus far has madness led them 20 their foul pur-
poee Of SANDER. the Righteousness Of which is
proven by the character Of the publications in which
his writings we're printed. II Beveridge Hun
then these great national magazines even more
guilty OF treason and should be suppressed.
Then comes the beIated effort 10 the name OF
Roosevelt and. ~ indirection show that New was
the chosen friend and admirer of the late leader.
That argument for him is really laughabe when it
Il remembered that the great crime charged by these
PARTISAN workers against Beverage is that he fol-
LEVIED Roosevelt in his efforts cleanse the repub-
Mcan party and TO make Il stand for all the people
II the republicans were to choose their candidate
in the reflected glory OF Roosevelt then the voters
OF this state will their votes because Of any
special friendship which either Mr.. Beverdge or
Mr.. New may boast.
They Will not vote for New because he claims to
have a special grip upon the Harding hand will
they vote for Beveridge because he happened TO be
a leader in the battles Of Roosevelt.
They will select their candidate comparison
Of issues ability and the rower to best serve. If
elected
on that basis they Will remember with indignation
that New brought disgrace upon the name Of In
diana when he voted keep in the senate a man
whose methods OF getting there were such that
even New voted to condemn them q menace to
all government. They will recall that 1t was Bev-
eridge who forced from that body Lorimer whose
offense was very similar and whose methods that of
purchase.
They will remember that Mr. Beveridge
ator was known over the nation for his fight for
decent meat for homes for his law against child
labor IN the factories for his leadership in things
which meant better homes and better and
They Will look in vain for any important piece
OF legislation which was either fostered initiated
or appreciaby helped by effort OF the present
senator-and between these records OF leadership
and mediocrity the choice will be made.
It is time for New to come back to Indiana. It
is time for him to explain boastingly approve
his vote for Newberry.
