Assembly Defeats Fellom
Bill For Revision of
Primary Ballot.
EXPENSE OPPOSED
Farm Bloc Succeeds in
Preventing Additional
Burden to State.
BY United Press Leasel Wire

number of sponsors for the candi.
date. In addition, the declarations
of each candidate would be mailed
to every registered voter in the

Objection of the farm bloc cen
tered around the expense of mail
ing out the declarations. Although
this was made an expense upon
counties under the original bill it
was later amended in the senate to
be made an expense to the state.
The opposition to the phase of
the measure, however, was not over

house.

on the bill by Senator j. I. Wagy

Though known best for his elo-
quence which stirred political gath
erings in Indiana for more than
score of years, Albert J. Beveridge
will be remembered longest as the
author of a book which, while it did
not attract widespread attention at
the time it was published, has be-
come a classic among the contribu-
tions to American political history.
| Beveridge's s "Life Of John Mar
shall'' is his strongest bid to fame
that will last after the political
campaigns in which he was a spec.
tacular figure have long been for
gotten.
Albert Jeremiah Beveridge was
born in Highland county, Ohio. Oc-
tober 6, 1852. His parents moved
to Illinois soon after the close OF
the Civil War.
His early life was one of priva.
tions and hard work. At ~ he was
4 plowboy, at II he was working
on a railroad section gang, and at
10 he was a teamster, studying at
home during the long winter even
ings.
Beveridge attended De Paw Uni.
versity, Greencastle, Ind. and. COM
Ipleted his college course in 1885.
Even before he was out of school

speeches in the Blaine campaign of
1884.
After graduation Beveridge read

mitted to the bar in 1884 and For

a bitter fight over an amendment
