Taggart At Indianapolis (United Frees Service) Indianapolis, Ind., July 18 —(Special to the Dally Democrat)—Democratic campaign plans for Indiana [were taking definite shape today with another visit of Thomas Taggart to Indianapolis. One of the results of his present activities is expected to he in the early announcement of the candidacy of Dr. Carteton B. McCullough for the nomination of governor. McCullough will ho the Taggart candidate. It is generally understood among the Democratic workers. It McCullough does not get the nomination It will be because Taggart has less influence on the party than he had in prevlons years. Taggart is not talking politics for publication, but is mighty active. There are still other gubernatorial booms, but they are "unofficial friends of William M. O’Brien of.

July 18—(Special to Daily Democrat)— Resignation of the Philippine cabinet was believed today by political observers to mean the end of hope for independence of tlie islands in the immediate future. Whether not: cooperation hinted by those resigning would spread beyond government circles was an interesting question. < 1 The political upheaval is the greatest since American occupation of the islands and was due. according to the retiring cabinet members, to General Wood’s alleged interference with civic matters. In accepting the resignation of the eight members Wood said he considered their action as challenge of his authority as governor and hinted martial law may follow-.

OPPOSE FIGHT IN THIS STATE 1 Governor McCray Refuses t Permission For DempseyGibbons Battle Here r . — . (United Service) Indianapolis, Ind., July 18 —(Spec- . lai to the Daily Democrat)—There I will be no Dempsey-Gibbons fight in Indiana on Labor day or any other day for that matter, as long as Gov. , McCray lias the say. The governor refused to give his permission for the bout which is being sought by a group of local promoters, headed by J. L. Baugh, of the Union Wire and Steel company. Following McCray's stand against i the fight, tlie promoters appealed to the war department at Washington for permission to hold the fight on the military reservation at Fort Harrison, which, they believe, is outside the, 'jurisdiction of the governor of Indiana. ' McCray, however, will call on the attorney-general for an opinion in the * event the promoters gain permission from the war department to hold the i fight on the military reservation. •— RED MEN MEETING TONIGHT A meeting of the Red Men lodge will be held this evening at 7:30. o’clock at the Red Men hall.
