MICHIGAN CITY, Ind, June o..
The curtain was rolled up today
for the 1880 Republican campaign
on a scene set perfectly by the In
diana Republican Editorial Associa-
ton, but for the absence Of three
star performers.
Neither Senator James E. Watson
nor Senator Arthur r. Robinson will
be able to be present, according to
informal notification received from
Washington, while Governor Harry
G. Leslie is in Salt Lake City at
tending the national conference Of
Governors.
Through the irony of fate, how
ever, two men who dominated the
scenes in the years past will be with
in few miles of the gathering.
On the edge of town behind the
grim gray walls of the Indiana
State Prison is one man, at whose
nod few years ago Republicans
hopped and skipped-D. G. Stephen
son, "the Old Man.
Jackson to Go on Stand
And twelve miles away at La
Porte will be the Governor Stephen
son helped make, Ed Jackson.
The former Governor is to take
the stand Saturday morning and
tell whether he lied or the state
prison records have been written
falsely.
During the last few days of his
term Jackson granted Edward L.
Bunch parole, which was refused
at the prison, because Of alleged
errors. The parole set out that ap-
prevail had been granted by the
trustees while the prison records
show that such approval had been
refused three times under Jackson,
and twice since Leslie assumed Of
flee. HabeaS corpus proceedings will
be held at La Porte and Jackson is
to testify.
Eliza o. Rogers, Republican state
committee chairman, and Harry
Fenton, committee secretary, were
on hand to greet the candidates
and editors as they arrived today.
Visitors Taken on Trip
The visitors were taken on a trip
through the state prison during the
afternoon. Following a band con-
cert in the prison chapel, they we're
to inspect the Dunes state park and
the new pavilion there.

ACQUITTED OF MURDER
Frenchman Freed of Charges of
Killing Attractive Painter.

BU United Press
PARIS, Jan. 20.-Whether the
death of Olive Branson. attractive
English painter, was the result of
lovers quarrel remained a mystery
here today. A jury acquitted Fran
co.'s Pinet, son Of a hotel owner at
Les Baux of a charge of murder
growing out of the death.
The body of Miss Branson, A,
was found at the bottom of a els
tern in the hotel yard last April,
a bullet through the head. The
theory of suicide was questioned
when it was revealed she had been
the mistress of Pinet and had
signed a will leaving him a large
fortune. The verdict of not guilty
followed the inability of the prose-
cution to present clear cut evidence
of Pinet'S guilt.

OH TRIAL FOR
KNIFE Staying
Man. SO, Is Faced With
Charge of Numbering
Stenographer.
BY GORDON X. SHEAI:ER

| AUSTIN, Tex, Jan. 20.-The second
appellate court judge in Texas to go
on trial within six months charged
with murder, faced the bar today
when John w. Brady, former assist
ant encouragement of Texas
former counsel for the state banking
department and former judge OF the
third court of civil appeals, was ar
ranged here.
Last November at Weathertord
Tex, a jury found former Judge R
H. Hamilton of Amarillo mot guilty"
of murder in killing his son-in-law
Tom Walton, after secret college
wedding.
Visibly Aged
Brady, SO, white haired and visibly
aged, sat within the grimy railing
of the same dingy Travis county
courtroom where he began a bril-
liant public career as county attor-
ney, prosecuting others. Today he
heard himself charged as the knife
slayer of Miss Lehlia HighSmith,
state supreme court Stenographer.
Both were well known in Texas
official circles. They had been &C
quainted more than six years. 1t
is said that Brady helped obtain the
young woman's court position for
her. She was only half his age-a
mere mite of woman weighing less
than 100 pounds. p
Nov. 9, last, Brady attended a
football game between the Univer-
sity of Texas and Baylor university
Friends say he had been drinking.
After the game he went home.
Walks to House
From his home in the fashionable
residence section of the Texas CAPT.
tai he walked several miles to the
downtown boarding house, where
Miss Highsmith lived. She was not
there. Brady fingered and eventu-
ally had fight with a roomer. The
dignifled judge emerged from the
fight with a blackened eye.
He remained until Miss Highsmith
returned with an escort Parking
her automobile at the side of the
house she came to the front en-
trance and met Brady. There was
an argument.
She was picked up with three
knife wounds. Brady had cut on
his hand. A knife taken by officers
was nine inches long when opened.
