THE Lincoln Republicanism
l. hypodermic has been in great
use this week, as usually is on the
occasion of the Great Emancipation
birthday in an election year.
The two big Lincoln dinners of
the year, however, will be staged
tonight, when southern Indiana
and state Republicans gather at
Evansville, and Second district
workers at Logansport.
Charles w. Jewett, former mayor
of Indianapolis, is to be the prin-
cipal speaker at the Lincoln Club
dinner. A candidate for the nom
ination for Governor in 1929, Jewett
has assumed a watchful waiting at
titude, wit rain bucket" handy,
IN event of a deadlock in the Re-
publican state convention.
the Evansville dinner will, how
ever, be the cynosure of attention,
as all factions of state and district
Republicanism will be present to
gauge sentiment and send up trial
balloons.
For several campaigns the bien-
NAL dinner there has been seized
upon as an suspicious moment and
place to sound out sentiment.
n
Among those present at Evans
vile will be M. Bert Thurman, ma
tional committeeman, so far the
outstanding contender for the gov
ernorship, and representative of the
candidates.
Thurman is expected to make
formal announcement within a few
weeks.
Although Senator Leroy j. Dick
inson Of Iowa is to be the principal
speaker, more interest is expected
to be shown in the aspirants for
state Office.
Steve Cook of Evansville is to an
nounce as an applicant for TIE
nomination for secretary Of state.
They don't need Cook down there,
but they do need the increment of
his father, Wallace Cook, who has
been a candidate for congress from
the old First to the material bene-
fit of "the boys"
They tell me that when the local
papers carried stories about Steve
being urged" to become a candi-
date for secretary of state, his
father bought up the remaining
issues of the editions to send to
friends.
That displays the right kind of
sentiment to the Republicans of the
Pocket, who have been hard hit
financially with the Democrats in
control of the city hall and court
house pay rolls.
There will be lot more interest
ing political gossip down at the
Evansville meeting, which you will,
no doubt, have relayed in the near
future.

WASHINGTON, June 6. = The middle west, chief battle-ground of the Democratic-Rspuolican wars, is expsl.ed to be the setting again fer some of the fiercest fighting for Presidential votes.
 ss Congressional and Gubernatorial : victories of 1880 and 1881 in nor mally Republican 9trongholds have spurrsd Democratic hopes of ob- ? Ptaining large blocks of electoral votes in an agricultural-in industrial empire whose citizens are strug- eling against fallen commodity pric- es or unemployment.
 To turn back this tide" mani fest in by-elections which often have been a precursor of change in National administrations, Re- publican strategists are counted up- on to throw powerful forces into . those Western states where Demo- cratic threat runs strongest.
 Democrats Make Gains
 Democratic triumphs, the most conspicuous since 1912, when the ABull Moose movement split the Rs- spublican ranks, have been regis Etered in Indiana, Illinois, Kansas Ohio and Michigan. Republican insurgency, headed by Senators from Nebraska, Wisconsin, Minne- sota and Iowa, presages significant |. campaign developments in those states
 But all politicians look for a stiff fight everywhere.
 Leaders of a third party move ment probably would look just as they did in 1912, to middlewestern states for their greatest support.
 Roosevelts bolt in 1912 success fully split the party to the bene- fit of Woodrow Wilson. But La Follette's attempt to do the same thing in 1924 failed to stop Cool idge. If there are to be in insur- gent moves their course is vague at present.
 New York, traditionally a pivotal state because of it's huge electoral vote, of course is seen as a crucial sector in the 1892 battle lines. So is Massachusetts which went for Smith in 1928 New Jersey, Rhode Island and Connecticut also are rated as close contest states.
 Prosperity Pledge Wins Votes
 The liquor. religious and Tam many issues brought defection in the Democratic party in 1928 when , its standard bearer was Alfred E. Smith, a wet But rated above all these as a factor in the Hoover led Republican landslide was that old reliable vote-getter of Mark Hanna, the prosperity pledge. Neither convention in 1928 was exciting. Hoover and Smith were nominated with virtually no op- position. But the Happy War rior" was unable to win from Hoo- yer despite a valiant fight. i, This year the Republicans al- most certainly will choose Hoover immediately As for the Demo- crats the betting odds are pretty wide.
