STEVE SILENT AS LESLIE
ENVOY IN SENATOR STRIKE
IN 1925, SAYS PUBLISHER
George Sanders, BIuffton,
Blasts Nominee for
Trying to SideStep.

D. G. Stephenson, former Klan
dragon, carried authority of Harry
G. Leslie, Speaker of the House OF
Representatives, now Republican
nominee for Governor, and Lieu
tenant Governor F. Harold Van Or
man when he asked fifteen "strik-
ing" Democratic Senators to return
from Dayton, Ohio, during the 1925
legislative session. This was the
charge hurled at Leslie today.
George L. Saunders, State Senator
from Adams, Blackford and Wells
Counties in the 1925 session, pub
Usher of the Bluffton (Ind) Ban
ner, today SO answered Leslie'S
charge that it was Stephenson who
returned the boiling Senators.
Promised Bill Killed
"The Democratic Senators at
Dayton, in communication with
Van Orman by telephone, were as
sured that he and Leslie were in
accord that the Penrod gerrymander
bill would not become a law"
said Saunders in a statement issued
from State Democratic headquar-
terS.
The Penrod bill, which provoked
the STRIKE" would have reShaped

sending was Omer Hawkins" !"
Saunders said.
Hawkins is Marion County sheriff
and Marion County Republican
chairman. Saunders said he did
not remember who the other mes
senger was.
ivan Orman assured the Senators
that the bill eventually would be
killed. He said this might be done
in one of several ways that the bill
might not come down in the Sen
ate, that it might come down there
and not be passed, that if passed
there 1t might not go to the House
or if it did it might be pocketed by
Speaker Leslie. In the extremity,
Van Orman assured them the House
wouldn't pass it, or Governor jack
son would veto it.
Leslie Kept Promise
And LeSlie'S promise, relayed
through Van Orrnan was kept. He
stuck it in his pocket after it passed
the Senate.
1.-THE Democratic Senators didn't
like to deal with Stephenson but ac-
cepted him as the representative
of Van Ornan and Speaker Leslie.
"They sent Stephenson and the
Democrats had to make terms with
him as Leslie's personal representa-
tive"
