Accuses Albert J. Beveridge Of Chloroforming County Option.
Francesville Tribune. The democratic editors of the state met at LaPorte last Thursday and Friday. Among the many things they did was to frame up resolutions endorsing Tom Marshall for the presidency. J)he editors were a little bit late witn their endorsement as the Model License League which is an association of brewery and distillery promoters throughout the United States, had long ago announced that the governor of Indiana was their choice because of the magificant record he had made in putting their business on a better paying basis in the state by the passage of the township and city local option law. But with all this behind Governor Marshall the republican party didn’t do much better at the last state convention where Senator Albert J. Beveridge chloroformed the endorsement of the county local option laws as a campaign issue and gave the people fiftyseven varieties of “Mary of the Vine Clad Cottage" instead.
