JOHN P. CARR RACK IN EDITORIAL HARNESS
|le la Likewise Back in Republican Party and Will Support The G. O. P. This Year. Indianapolis, Ind., May 13.—While at republican state headquarters In the Hotel Severin today, John P. Carr, who as publisher of the Republican-Leader at Fowler, Ind., supported Roosevelt and Beveridge in 1912, announced that he would •soon begin the publication of a republican newspaper in Fowler to be known as the Fowler Tribune. Mr. Carr is ohe of the best known newspapermen in the state. After the election in 1912 Mr. Carr sold the Fowler Republican-Lead er, which continued Progressive. A short time ago this paper for lack of popular support suspended publication, and Mr. Carr, who had retired to bis farm, at once began laying plans for the establishment of a newspaper to support the republican party. In 1393 Mr. Carr established the Fowler Leader and some time later he purchased the Republican and combined, the two under the name of the RepublicanLeader. “The republicans of Indiana at the recent comention adopted a great platform,” said Mr. Carr. “There is now every reason wby one who ever believed the principles of tbe republican party should support the party and its ticket. Democratic mismanagement of affairs is rabidly crystalling sentiment in favor of the republican party.” Mr. Carr announced that the first issue of the new republican paper would appear next week.
