Folk 93 Theodore Roosevelt 59 Thomas Taggart 23 Thus resulted the Indianapolis Star’s ballot for the democratic nomination for president. The Peerless One is still in the lead notwithstanding tbe fact that time has proven the fallacy of do many of his policies Kern is second because he is a Hoosier and has a large number of personal friends in the state. Woodrow Wilson is third because he is a national figure of prominence. Tom Marshall got 723 votes. Let’s see, he has almost that many oil inspectors and members of the Accounting board, ~ hasn’t he?
