North Dakota Primary Result
Reveals President Strong
in Northwest.
IpeciaI Dispatch 10 The Star


BISMARCK, ". D., March 22.-Ti.s
primary election in North Dakota fur
nished evidence that President Cool
idge has many friends among the
farmers. Political observers who
have seen anti-Non-Partisan League
candidates start out with a big ma
jority, only to have it pulled down
and wiped out as the rural vote came
in, saw the President maintaining his
lead as the rural vote came in from
Tuesdays primary election in a manner
surprising to them.
The big vote given Robert NJ La
Toilette, whose name was not on the
ballot, showed that La Toilette has
much the same place in the estima-
tion of North Dakota farmers as Will
liam Jennings Bryan has among DEM
ocrats in many states.
The failure of Johnson to capture
the progressive or radical vote leads
political observers to predict that
Coolidge would have beaten him cas-
lily in a straightout fight, although
most of them concede La Toilette
would have outdisranced the Presi-
dent had the two been running

BOSTON, March 22.-Further COM
plications have been added to the re-
publican national and state campaign
in Massachusetts, by the candidacy of
State Treasurer James Jackson for
governor against Lieut. Gov. Alvan
T. Fuller.
The contest is bound to cause much
hard feeling in republican ranks be-
fore the primaries. at least 1t is a
complication which Mayor James M.
Curley has been figuring on as one of
the most favorable conditions for his
campaign for governor on the demo-
cratic side
There are many leading republicans
who have taken it for granted that
Fuller could not be beaten. These
men believe that a contest such as is
indicated will split the party wide
open and at a time when national
issues are dominant, and cause the
greatest overturn in the state ever
known.
jackson made his political debut on
September 4, 1920, when he was ap-
pointed state treasurer by Gov. Cool
idge to fill out out the unexpired term
of Fred J. Burrell, resigned. After a
most remarkable sticker campaign the
same year, Jackson was elected to
the Office.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, March 22-The
outstanding feature of Ohio politics
this week is the increased activity
in the James NJ. Cox campaign. Mr.
Cox expressed himself a few months
ago as entirely Indifferent regarding
the matter. Asked to give permis-
sion to a movement to obtain a dele
cation in his support he acquiesced,
approving a slate of state and dis
trict candidates for delegates.
1t seemed probable then that all
this was projected principally to keep
the Ohio delegation well in hand to

poses.
more IAN d chance that the former
governor might win the nomination.
They feel that the connection of Mr.
McAdoo with oil interests under in
yeStigation will make him unavail-
able. Senator Underwood they re-
gard to as clearly on record as too
wet. Gov. Smith of New York is even
more Objectionable on that score.
Senator Ralston they believe is too
old. With all these outstanding can
didates unavailable, the Cox man
ayers here do not see any reason
why the Ohio man would not meet
the requirements.
Republicans Stand Pat.
In spite of the developments at
Washington involving the Depart
ment of Justice and various officials
attached to the administration, re-
publicans are standing firmly back
of the movement for the nomination
of President Coolidge, and it seems
practically certain that the presi-
Dental primary will be carried out
under these conditions.
Senator Johnson will make a speak
ing tour some time in April. The
Johnson workers seem to be plan
ming to make use of the develop
ments at Washington. to help their
cause here, but there is simply no
sentiment for Senator Johnson among
the republicans of Ohio.

CANYON FEATURES
STATE, PRESERVE
McCormick's Creek Park
Contains 400 Acres.

Not far from Indianapolis is
nestled McCormick's Creek Canyon
State Park. 1t is situated three
miles east Of Spencer, in Owen Coun-
ty, southwest of the city. The re-
serve consists of 400 acres, which
adjoin that area known as "The
F1atwoods District, bounded on one
side by the west fork of White
River. very rugged and cut through
its greatest dimension by McCor-
mick's Creek.
s. This park has long been viewed
as a beauty spot and outing place.
The following is taken from the his
tory Of Washington Township writ
ten by William Richards and pub
Hsbed in 1884:
Mccormick Creek, which Joins
White River from the east about one
mile east of Spencer, is a favorite
resort for picnic parties and pleas
Hre seekers, on account of IT'S beau
tiful and romantic scenery. From
its mouth to the falls, about one and
one-half miles, it winds through a
deep, narrow, rocky valley, with pre-
cipitous sides and gray cliffs that
rise like solid walls higher than the
tall oaks The bluffs and steep sides
are covered with clambering vines
and a dense timber growth, shutting
out the sunlight and leaving the mar
row valley shady, silent and SEEM
ingly far from the haunts of man.
1.-The falls are twelve feet in
height, and the surrounding scenery
would delight the eye of an artist.
The valley is in some places rocky,
in others covered with grass and
wild HOWcrs and strewn with moss
covered bOulders. The scene is one
OF wild sylvan beauty and grandeur,
and it is perhaps the only spot the
hand Of the invading pioneer has
left unchanged. It wants only the
wild war whoop Of the departed and
disinherited 10 to wake the echoes
IN the enchanted vale and complete
the scene as it was when the In
dian was lord of the domain"
The scenic feature of the park is
the canyon from which the name is
derived. Timber growth is prin.
cipally beech, oak, ash, sugar,
walnut and popular. The best timber
has disappeared, but there were once
magnificent forests of valuable
timber.
The creek is named for John Nc

The park was purchased jointly
by Owen County and~the State from
the estate Of Dr. Frederick Denke-
walter, former property owner of
Indianapolis.
In this park are more wild flow
ers. Great masses of blooms are to
be found there. Guides have been
provided to inform tourists Of the
variety of flowers and birds.
You will find over 500 varieties Of
wild plant life. About the first plant
to appear is spring beauty, which
usually carpets the woodland with
its white and pinkish flowers. Then
come violets, crows feet, rue ane-
