Entered at the postofflee tn Decatur, Indiana, as second class matter. Senator Beveridge wouldn't but he did. Cheered for sixteen minutes and urged on by cries of "we want B- veridge" he finally consented to become the bull moose candidate for senator. He will make a six weeks’ campaign attacking the Wilson administration and paving the way for the campaign of 1916. Whatever else Bev«ridg<» may be, he lias one redeeming quality, he believes in advertising. It looks as though Huerta preffs to take his chances with the l_ni.ee, States rather than with the r j bels of his own country. The taxing over of that country by this is thr only chance for Huerta and his cabinet for eventually they are doomed to capture and death at the hands of Villa and his followers or some one else if he should fail. It looks like a deliberate plan on the part of Huerta to force the United States to take part iu the affair. LOST—Motor Cycle number plate and j rear light. Reward for return of articles.
