No Talk of Others

There is little talk now that the
convention will select anyone other
than the six candidates VINO were in
the primary race.
Friends Of Albert Stump, Indian.
apolis attorney, say he demonstrated
considerable strength by running
second in the primary without or.
ganiza ton support, and contend his
oratorical ability would be an asset
TO the. party.
Although l.. Ert Slack, IndIanapo-
lis attorney, expended little effort
In campaigning. he scored a large
primary vote. according to his sup
porters. Slack, they say, has a bril-.
liant party record.
George w. Rauch, Marion attor-
ney campaigned In only three coun.
ties during the primary contest. A
letter from his campaign headquar-
ters declares he made little effort in
the primary because he was certain
the final appeal would be to the
delegates in the state convention.
Modification of the Volstead Act
is the chief plank in the platform
of L. William Curry, indianapolis
lawyer, a candidate.

Possibility Seen for Primary

Platform. md

Whether hackers OF william A.
Cullop OF Vincennes will be able TO
turn the Indiana Democratic party
back to its time-honored conception
Of the tariff from which leaders have
shown a tendency to depart prob
ably will determine who will be Dem
ocratic long-term senatorial nomi-
nee, politicians said today.
The State convention, which will
decide the issue, will be attended by
1913 delegates, who will assemble
at Tomlinson Hall. Thursday.
Cullop, former congressman, is
70 years old and represents tho nth
degree Of low-tariff thought In the
party.
Cullop In Lead

Cullop led the FIVE other candidates,
but the margin was SMALL lie con-

Culloch had led in the primaries OF
