POLITICAL “DOPE BUCKET"DENTED BY REPUBLICANS 'COirriNVKD EHOM PAGE ONE) sixth ballot, but these votes and many others stuck to Leslie instead of returning to their original home ami the Ixjslie baud wagon rolled in to victory on the seventh ballot. After the tumult and shouting had died, it was discovered that the score stood, as follows: Leslie, 825; Landis, 473; Schortenieier, 34; Jewett, 5 and Lesli, 1. Only 670 votes were required to obtain the necessary majority. Schortemeier had been within 200 markers of that goal on the third ballot after his whirlwind start and Landis had been nearer still on the sixth ballot with 552% votes. Adams Shows Weakness One of the surprises of the convention was the weakness in delegates of Thomas H. Adams, the fiery Vincennes editor who started the Indiana I'o’.itical corruption investigation. His maximum was 69 votes on the first ballot. Adams had finished third in the primary election with nearly 70,000 votes. The ‘‘new deal” delegates seemed to rally to the Landis standard and to remain there throughout most of the voting. The Logansiwrt man had been second to Schortemeier and just ahead of Adams in the primary count. Seldom had a more picturesque convention been staged in Indianapolis. It was the culmination of the first general election since nearly a score of Republican officials had been indicted for various types of political corruption. Adams had repeatedly scored bath Leslie, the nominee, and Schortemeier. He had charged that Leslie blocked Jiis proixised legislative investigation of Governor Ed Jackson's alleged cbmfptloii and had termed Schortemeier, ‘'The crown prince of Stephcnsonism.” Democrats Optimistic Democratic chieftains here said that they would find Leslie an easier man to beat in the fall election than Landis. They pointed out that the Democratic issue of political corruption could have been nullified, if Landis had been the nominee. Years ago J«tndis was a congressman, but had not been in political life during the last few hectic years. Leslie, on the other hand, was speaker of the house of representatives during the entire, term of Governor Jackson, the Democrats recalled. However, Leslie supporters said that lie had never been involved in the political mire of recent date and denied that he was essentially an "old guard” candidate. They said they were cheered by the hearty indorsements of the nominee by the defeated candidates, Landis, Jewett anti Schortemeier. Landis Makes Speech W hen the result was apparent Landis, in political sportsmanship, as he moved to make the election unanimous, said: "I came here intending to make an entirely different kind of a speech. But the difference between Central America and this country is that we support the ticket that is nominated. In Central America the loser indulges in revolution. In the fight to come Harry Leslie will have everything 1 have in my Republican system.", Schortemeier said that he would make as many speeches for Leslie as ho would have if he had been nominated, and Jewett spoke in similar vein. But Adams could not be found. Other Nominees Chosen After the gubernatorial ballot, the weary delegates remained until 9 p. m to nominate the minor state candidates. In only one race, that for lieutenant governor, was nominated one ballot taken. In that contest, Edgar D. Bush, of Salem, a former lieutenant governor, asw nominated on the second ballot over State Senator .1, Monroe Fitch of Muncie, State Senator L. G. Bradford of South Bend, ( om J. Richards of Terre Haute and Charles O. Williams, of Fountain City Marion county political factions had their oustomary warfare on the con vention floor when Indianapolis city clerk William A. Byce Jr., protested the report from that delegation during the gubernatorial balloting. He withdrew the protest when the report wns corrected after a period of shouting and gavel poundfug. I lie spirit of the "old guard” politicians seemed to be “anything to slop Landis.” a Landis parade through Cadle tabernacle, the convention hall, headed by a l>and. Was halted by the Marion county delegation. It was necessary to dispatch city po-

licemen to the scene to quiet the disturbance. Leslie A Football Star I<eslie will be a picturesque candidate. He is a forceful speaker with the ability to launch bi illiunt replies in debate on sudden call. The nominee is married and has three children. While attending Purdue University, Leslie was one of the stars of the gridiron. He was injured severely in the famous 1903 train wreck that killed most of the football eleven of that university. Leslie was removed to an undertaking parlor because rescuers thought he was dead. But he recovered after a long illness. Today he bears the scars of that harrowing experience. Leslie, who started his career as a delivery boy for a grocery, worked ' most of his way through college. While still delivering groceries he! became ambitious to be town clerk. I His courtesy to housewives earned j him many votes and he was elected. I After being graduated from Purdue, | Leslie attended the Indiana Law School ai Indianapolis and began the ' practice of law at Lafayette. In 1907 ; he was named United States commis-
