THEY TELL Me

here, whether i'll or we'll founded.
Yet it is hardly possible that so
astute a politician at Ellingham
will involve his own future in fight
for the nomination for Governor,
such as apparently threatens for
next June, without making sure
that his horse has better than d
mere outside chance to win.
It well may be that the Fl. Wayne
publisher, through some aid, did
SOW the seed in Isenbarger's mind,
but it is certain that Ellingham
stands in a position where he can
disacow the Elkhart attorney when
ever necessary.
There also is the probability that
Rudy Alderman and Chester Mont
gomery in the breathing intervals
of their Chinese war with Mayor
w. R. Hinkle, over the question of
who's grafter?" may have
sponsored the Proctor candidacy.
After all, Elkhart is only hop
and a skip from South Bend, and
Elkhart county is one Of the three
in the new Third district.
Being close neighborS and having
maintained friendly relations, what
could be more natural than that the
big-hearted pair from South Bend
would like to Sc home town boy
make good?"
But the Greeks bearing gifts need
never to be watched as closely as
the Hoosier Odysseus and Ajax, for
instead of giving a horse to Mr..
Proctor, the pair will, no doubt, put
a horse on him.
