How Citizens Feel.
Others lean to the opinion that they can make better headway attacking the administration for not making greater headway with the war plana, especially j-ith airplanes and such.
The two issues are incompatible of course, and the republican leaders are not quite sure which the public would feed on more readily. They have tried out the "constructive criticism" idea, but the people of Indiana who have boys tn the war seem to have no stomach for this line of politics.
The republican headquarters here had hopes lately that they would carry the Fourth district which Is strongly democratic. The republicans have a farmer candidate for congress In the Fourth district in John S. Benham. He ran very well in the republican primaries and he proposes to limit his campaign almost entirely to the farming communities. However, the report that came from the counties in the Fourth at the North Vernon conference Indicated clearly that the Democrats will irry the district, re-electing Repre-

member of the Ways and Means committee, and a staunch Wilson man. The sentiment as expressed by many republicans who attended the conference at North Vernon indicated that they have not found among the democrats any disposition to bolt their own ticket. Some of the well known republican leaders admitted that there are no indications that there will be any material change In the democratic vote. There are several thousand German democrats in the Fourth district but they have all turned Liberty bond buyers and win-the-war patriots.
Second District Outlook.
The information brought to Chairman Van Nuys at the meeting in Vincennes confirmed the reports that /the democrats more than likely will regain the Second district which they lost two years ago on account of a factional feud in their own party. Fred Bays, of Sullivan, the democratic candidate in the Second, has made a very good impression, and his election Is being predicted by a majority of at least fifteen hundred. The Second is normally democratic by more than one thousand, and while the republicans had hopes of re-electing Representative Oscar Bland, it is apparent now that the odds are against Bland, and that he will not be re-elected unless there are unexpected developments.
The situation in the second is the same as it is in the Fourth. The democrats in the Second are lining up solidly for their own candidates, as no reason has been given them for joining the republicans. What Is worrying the leaders of the republican organization is the fact that In every district ther* axm bundre4? o£ mem

bers of thetr own party who ar® convinced that the best results in the prosecution of the war will be obtained by the election of men who are known to be in sympathy with the president.
In fact, it is apparent at this stage of the campaign that the republicans in every district consider it good polities to go before the people and declare that their candidate for congress will stand by the president if they are elected. It is no longer denied by republican leaders that there is no hope for re-election of their congressmen except from the pledge of active and unbroken support of the president on all measures for the, prosecution of the war.
No Time for Bias.
It Is on this account that members of the republican organization probably are proceeding very carefully in discussing the issues of the campaign. They do not want to come out and publicly endorse the president, but at the same time they realize that it would be suicidal for them to make an attack upon him. At the headquarters of the democratic state committee it is insisted that Senator Harry S. New rendered the democratic party a very valuable service when he delivered his speech at the recent republican state convention. The democratic campaign managers say that such criticism of the president as Senator New indulged in not only has aroused the democrats, but thousands of republicans, who do not feel that this is the time to criticise the president in a vindictive manner.
Under the circumstances, the republicans seem to have concluded that the beat thing they «aa do is to con

There are rumblings of discontent among the Republicans on account of the report that Secretary of the Treasury William G. McAdoo will inaugurate. the fourth Liberty Loan drive in October. It is conceded at the head-
What is worrying the wise leaders is their belief that the Democrats at these meetings will take advantage of the situation to emphasize the demand that now is the time for every one to stand by the President. Many of the Republican leaders who nave te?n making^peeches at war meetings have refused op to this time to mention the President's name or to urge the people that it is their duty to stand back of the President in the prosecution of the var, They do not propose to mention

duct a vigorous organization campaign in Indiana for the next six weeks. By that time they hope that there will be developments that will point the way for the remainder of the campaign. Chairman Edmund M. Wasmuth, who seems to be making a very good impression among the republicans, is urging them to exercise care in seeing that every voter is registered, and not leave unregistered any of the soldiers and the voters who are absent from the state.- He has asked that the county organizations take a more careful poll than ever before, in order that the registration of the voters may be more thorough.

his name at any meeting unless they are obliged td, but many of them are wondering how they can get around the situation if the Liberty Loan drive is Inaugurated during tne last month of the campaign. Some of the Republican leaders are saying that McAdoo has purposely planned to open the Liberty Loan drive in October in order to help the Democratic campaign for tjie election of congressional candidates representing their party. Wh'.-ther there is any ti*uth in this charge does not change the situation from the viewj.tint of the members of the Republican organization, who are inclined to concede that the Liberty Loan drive rot only is liable to interfere with their line 9f campaign but more likely may result In causing many voters to conclude that the best thing to do is to elect a Democratic congress.

the state than it was two years ago at this time and apparently is in better condition than that of the republicans. Everywhere in the southern Indiana counties the democrats are on their toes and are going into tne campaign Imbued with a winning spirit.
Two years ar" the Indiana democrats were licked before they started. They began and finished the campaign in 1916 with the idea that they were going to run second. They determined to run as good a second as possible. This time they are beginning with the thought that the drift is with them and that they will carry the state. Van Nuys undoubtedly is responsible for a feeling of optimism among the democrats. He Is showing that he is an aggressive leader and he has changed

the situation greatly to the advantage of hlr party. Representative Denton of Evansville declared at the First district meeting this week that the logic of the situation favors the democrats because the people, regardless of pw*ty. desire the election of men who afe known to be in full accord with the President In the program for the prosecution of the war. As'far as the southern half of Indiana is concerned, the drift is so clearly with the democrats that there is no use denying it.
A change ha« come among the Germans in that part of the state. The German families now have their own sons in the service of this country and they are going to the front rigorously in all of the vtar activities and are enthusiastic in their work. Predictinos ere being made in the southern naif of the state that the German vote there will divide in politics just as it did prior to the 1916 campaign, which means a substantial gain for the democrats as It is well known that many German democrats voted against their own party two years ago.
If the republicans elect any congressmen in Indiana this year it will be in some of the northern Tndiana districts. They more than likely will lose the Second. They will do well, indeed, if they hold the Fifth. The republicans will carry several districts where their majority is too strong to be overcome, but in the close districts the outcome is going to be in doubt until the votes are counted. Many republicans seem determined to throw aside politics for the present to vote with tbe President, not because they agree with him politically, but because
