LLOYD GEORGE IN
APPEAL TO PEOPLE

him in London and upon his arrivel
here the former premier is conf
dent that he has the support of the
people.
1t is understood that Lloyd
George holds A. Bonar Law mainly
responsible for the wr acking OF the
Coalition government. Law was
formerly a member of the Lloyd
George ministry. He is now Lloyd
Georges successor as premier.
On account of the shortness Of
time which must elapse before a
general election is held 1t is re-
garded as certain that a new party
will not be formed. 1t is believed
by Lloyd Georges adh orents that
there would not be sufficient time
in which to arrange the details OF
a new working organization.
The lineup in the next election
probably will be as follows:
Liberas-Led by Lloyd George.
Die Hard" wing of Conservatives
Led by A. Bonar Law.
Moderate" faction, of Turtles
Led by Austen Chamberlain.
There is possibility that the
'Moderates" among the Tories may
make some kind of bargain with
the Lib erals which would mean the
speedy downfall of any government
that Bonar Law may set up.

PREDICTS
SWEEPING
VICTORY
Finds G. 0. P. Active And
Militant in All Sections
OF The State


CROWN POINT. ina, Oct. 21-At
the Masonic Temple here this aft
ernoon at O'Clock. and at the
Lowell opera house at s D. m. Gov
ernor Warren r. McCray is sched-
uled to make his first appearance
in Lake county in the present cam
paign- Governor McCray. who is
making tour Of the state. is in
fine fettle and much pleased with
the political outlook in Indiana and
expects the Republican party to
win sweeping victory In the No
vember election.
The governor, in commenting on
the political situation today, said:
SIGNIFICANT OBSERVATIONS
i am much pleased with the po-
litical outlook in Indiana. The Re
publican party will win a splendid
victory in the election. have
found the Republicans active and
militant in many sections OF the
state which 1 have visited recently"
The governors observations on
the political sitaution have much
significance. both on account of the
accurate information he receives
from CONFIDENTIAL reports from va
rious parts OF Indiana and from the
executives own Investigations made
while speaking for the Republican
ticket. For the past two weeks the
governor has been on the stump
for the Republican ticket and has
delivered addresses in many parts
Of Indiana. The governor will con-
tinue to devote a part of his time
to the Republican speaking cam
paign until the election.
WANTS REPUBLICAN MAJORITY
Governor McCray is interested in
the election of Albert ]. Beveridge
as United States senator and speak
ing from the same platform with
the Republican senatorial nominee
several times recently mas urged
unanimous support of Beveridge.
The governor is also especially in
terested in having Republican ma
jorities in both branches of the
General Assembly in order that the
state administration legislative
program will have strong party
support at the next session Of the
legislature.
The governor. in his campaign
speeches. has devoted considerable
attention to the high spots OF his
administration ana has given the
| facts Of the Republican record in
Indiana to the people. Attemps OF
the Democratic party leaders to
focus attention on the state issues
in Indiana have signally failed on
with the regime Of Governor Nc
| Cray.
Governor McCray. during a num-
| Der of trying times during his ad-
ministration. has so conducted the
state affairs as to win the approba-
tion OF not only Indiana citizens but
representative citizens OF all Sec
lions of the country
1t is interesting to note that the
political writers and Democratic
propagandists in various parts OF
| the country are making no claims
| to Indiana. While it Is reported in
various parts of the country that
this state or nat state is going to
| leave the Republican fold, no such
| comments are being heard concern
| ing the Hoosier state. This situa-
ton is taken to mean that even the
| Democratic leaders hold out little
hope for capturing Indiana from the
| G. o. P.
