STATE CONVENTION IS ON AT INDIANAPOLIS.

Lively Time. ln Prospect In Passage of Resolutions Which Will Endorse Beveridge and Declare foj| the Tariff.

A. A. Pell, of Carpenter township, U- W. Marble, of Wheatfleld, Moses Leopold, George Murray, R. B. Harris and G. E. Murray, of Rensselaer, are in attendance at the statb republican convention which will be held in Indianapolis Tuesday. The convention will doubtless he a lively affair and It is thought some dispute may arise when the resolutions are ofTered, and It is probable that there will be some evidence of dissatisfaction with Beveridge by the republicans of the state who think there is nothing materially wrong with the Payne tariff bill. Some will probably want to endorse the bill and others will favor a reaffirmation of the belief in a system of protection adjusted to meet the needs of the country at various times. Beveridge and his followers will probably favor a statement favoring reduction. That they will get together very amicably, however, there seems little doubt, and there is no reason why the republicans should not carry Indiana, as there U really very little difference In the way they believe on the tariff issue. All know that the tariff is the cardinal feature in the republican party and not many are willing to let the democratic and mugwump papers talk us out of keeping it well to the front of our party, both national and state. Here’s hoping.
