Hut Mr. Taft, if he so minds, can show a multitude of promises made by Roosevelt which he did not keep, whatever may have been his intent. Doubtless Charles S. Hernley, former chairman of the republican state committee, who has come out as an independent candidate for representative in Henry county against the Beveridge candidate, thinks it no worse for him to be independent than it is for the Beveridge candidate to be in- ( surgent. Mr. Hernly may also consider himself much the more “regular” candidate of the two since he

stands by the party record while the other merely stands for Beveridge. There is no good reason why Mr. Hornly’s example should not be followed by other stalwart republicans. Under its present leadership in this state there Is no chance for the republican party to succeed next November and tho time is propitious for settling all of those little disagreements between the factions that have ben so much in evidence. The best way te have a test of strength is for a regular to become au independent candidate in every legislative district where there is an insurgent candidate and an Insurgent to run indpendently whereever a regular was nominated. This suggestion is offered with a view to determine which sac- ; tion really is to be the republican party in Indiana. Miss Genevieve Berling, fifteen-year-old daughter of Mrs. Helen Berling, left this morning for Fort Wayne, where she will enter the academic department of the Sacred Heart academy conducted by the Sisters of the Holy Cross, at the completion of which she will enter St. Mary’s college at Notre Dame. Genevieve will also devote some time to her piano studies in which she has made an enviable record, being considered the most skillful of the younger musicians in the city. Her many friends wish her a continuance of the success th»t she has had, both in her class work and musical studies.

Assn., No. 151, TO OPEN CAMPIGN Governor Marshall Will Make Opening Speech at Indianapolis. TO BE THE KEYNOTE After That the Fireworks Will Get Fast and Furious. i DEMOCRATIC NEWS BUREAU. 325 Pythian Building. Indianapolis, Ind., Sept. 7 —(Special to Daily Democrat)-Governor Marshall will open the Indiana campaign for the democratic party. The opening speech will be delivered in Indianapolis, in Tomlinson Hall, between September 15th and 25th, the date not having yet been decided. These plans have been determined by the democratic leaders, U. S. Jackson, state chairman, having had a conference on the matter with Governor Marshall last evening. Governor Marshall’s speech will be in the nature of a “keynote,” and will present the issues of the campaign in a forceful manner. The governor’s popularity and his ability to present his ideas in a clear and convincing way make him admirably adapted to the task that he has accepted. After the governor's speech the speaking campaign will be on in earnest and will reach every corner of Indiana. John W. Kern and Senator Shively will get into the campaign immediately following the governor’s speech and will be kept busy by the speakers’ bureau of which Bert H endren is chairman. They will have the assistance of many able speakers and it is certain that democratic views of the present issues will be presented clearly and logically. The dates for Mr. Bryan’s Indiana speeches have not yet been set. Chairman Jackson, is, however, expecting every day an annoui -.nent from Colonel Bryau, telling juut when he can most conveniently come. The county meetings, which come in the wake of the democratic district meetings, are progressing well and the ihterest shown everywhere by j democrats in the approaching election is n.anifest in the large attendance and enthusiasm in the various counties. In nearly every case most of the county candidates and practically all of the precinct committeemen have attended and have avowed their willingness and intention to put forth every effort to carry their precinct and county to victory.- ‘When the precinct committeemen show such enthusiasm and a disposition to work,” said Chairman Jackson yesterday, “there Can be no doubt of the result. 1 Their activity is a guarantee that a full democratic vote will he cast. With this guarantee democratic success is assured. Success is in their hands. If there is a disposition to be indifferent or over-eonfident, there is danger ahead. But this is not the case with the democratic committeemen. They realize the responsibility that rests upon them. They are eager and willing—and they are not over-confident, Over-confidence is a fatal error—and it is not going to be one of our faults this year. We are confident that we will win, but we know we must work —and work we will.” o NOTICE. I have for sale a hog cholera remedy, and guarantee it to cure the worst cise.

Arriving at the home the party found that the Japanese lanterns, forming a twinkling network under the trees on the lawns, provided a cheerful setting for the party, and outdoor games of all kinds contributed to the enjoyment. Miss Bates of Fort Wayne, who is an accomplished vocalist, sang to her own guitar accompaniment, and music by others also proved delightful. Supper was served on little tables set on the lawn under the trees, and all were unanimous in saying that the party was one of the most delightful ever.
