Up With Faction in
Primary Contest.

national committeeman from Indiana,

supremacy In Marion County between the
g. O. z. factions today began taking on
a new hue
Mr.. Healing Is giving personal assist

Of the city hall faction. William Fl.
Armitage is operating from the second
Of English Hotel, handling the slate and
the workers supporting the city hall slate.
This combination was brought about
for the purpose of combating to better
advantage, the Lemcke-Jewett and Coffin
Dodson, combination.
Leaders OF the combination hope to put
Senator Harry New over for re nomina-
ton and what is more important, capture
the Republican county organization.
When the Lemcke -Jewett faction began
making oyertures to George V. Coffin,
Cardn Shank, whose influence resulted
in Mr.. Coffin being selected TO serve the
unexpired term Of former County Clerk
Richard Y. Sipe, there were indications
that Commissioner Shank in time. would
break with Coffin, as the latter failed 70
