THE EVENING REPUBLICAN. RENSSELAER. IND.

WILSON WILL BE A CANDIDATE IN 1916

▼ice President Marshall Authorises Statement That President Will Ask for Re-Election.

Washington, Sept. 2.—Vice President Marshall authorized a published statement here today that President'Wilson would be a>eandidate for reelection. Secretary Tumulty Said the white house knew nothing of the statement and would not comment upon it. The vice president’s statement was made in- the course of an authorized interview on the present situation, which concluded thus: “The democratic party will have but one candidate for president in 1916, and his name happens to be Woodrow Wilson. He will have the entire and unqualified and united support of his party. Fair minded democrats will recognize that he is entitled to a chance for a second term to prove the utility of his policies. Lightning rods already up may as well be taken down and preserved for future use; democratic lightning will not strike a rod in 1916.” The renomination of several senators and representatives who have supported the president on the Panama tolls, the Mexican and other questions have encouraged democratic managers. In this connection particular attention was paid today to the nomination of Representative Hardwick for senator from Georgia. The praise of the president’s Mexican policy in several of. the democratic state platforms recently also has been received with pleasure by the president’s adherents.

Simon Leopold Will Go To Sanitarium Monday.

Simon Leopold, proprietor of The Model Clothing Co., accompanied by Mrs. Leopold, will leave next Monday for the tuberculosis colony of Aurora, 111,, there to take the sanitarium treatment for his lung trouble. Mr. Leopold had a thorough examination made by a Chicago specialist a week ago, and was advised that his right lung was involved in a manner that demanded that he get out of his store at once and he has hastily competed arrangements for closing out the stock and expects to spend at least two months in the sanitarium and hopes thereby to overcome the trouble which threatens his life. Mr. Leopold contracted a severe cold some time ago and this he was unable to throw off. If he relieved' it the relief proved only temporary and gradually it settled down until he contracted a hacking cough, which was his first signal for alarm. An x-ray examination of the lungs disclosed the extent of the infection and his right lung is involved to an extent that demands immediate treatment in the best tuberculosis hospital.

Late War News Summarized.

The seat of the French government is to be removed frqm Paris to Bordeaux, which lies 358 miles southwest of Paris. The proclamation announcing this action refers to it as a temporary arrangement. Regarding the progress of the battle which the Germans arfe waging on French and Belgian soil, both French and British governments are virtually keeping silence. The movements of the troops are meagerly reported and it has been impossible through these reports to form any adequate idea of how the tide of battle is flowing.

Direct advices from the Russian capital give the official report of a battle lasting seven days between the Russians and Austrians near Lemberg, capital of Galicia, in which the Russians werf successful, forcing the Austrians to retreat and seizing heavily fortified positions. The Russians captured 150 guns and the Austrians are said to have suffered enormous losses. In this battle three full Austrian army corps and parts of two others were engaged. French aviators have pursued a German aeroplane over Paris. There was an exchange of shots in the air, but the German succeeded in getting away.

Russia admits a serious defeat in East Prussia at the hands of the Germans. In this battle two Russian army corps were badly cut up and three generals and a number of staff officers were killed. An official report from Paris says that a German cavalry corps, marching toward the forest of Compeigne, engaged the British and the British captured ten guns. Japan has landed thousands of troops at the Chinese port of LungKow, 100 miles north of Tbing-Tau, and the German legation at Peking has protested to the Chinese foreign office against the alleged infringement of China’s neutrality. The United States cruiser Tennessee Is to be utilized for the transportation of Americans from Havre to England.

Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Eger have jctumed from a ten days’ sojourn at Ghewano, Wis. John M. Qtt and fatally, of Remington, are here today to attend the carnival. Mr.s Kate Billings, of Chicago, who has been visiting in Remington, came here today to visit Lyman Zea and family

DEMOCRATS LOOKING FOR GOOD EXPLAINERS

Tom Taggart and Bernard Korbly Would Like to Secure Some Explainers for Campaign.

Washing-ton, D. C., Sept. I.—Tom Taggart and Bernard Koibly, chairman of the Fairbanks-Taggart democratic machine in Indiana, arrived in Washington today and, almost distracted, seached here and there Tor “speaking talent” to rush into Indiana to try to save the Fair-banks-Taggart state ticket from an overwhelming defeat at the hands of the republicans, who are said to be making things hot for the democratic machine, politicians over Indiana state issues. It is understood that Taggart is now anxious to divert attention from state issues by importing into Indiana a lot of democratic congressmen who will discuss any national issues. Taggart and Korbley, almost frantic, are determined to go their limit in an effort to cause the taxpayers of Indiana to quit thinking about the scandals connected with the democratic management of the last legislature as well as the reckless democratic conduct of the state’s financial affairs, the wholesale increase in the number of offices, commissions and boards as well as the very material increase in the state tax levy. It is said that Taggart md Korbly realize the embarrassing situation that Governor Ralston occupies at the present time. They know that his effectiveness as a stump speaker will be reduced to irreducible mininimum as long as he refuses to take vigorous steps to locate and send to the penitentiary the “consummate scoundrels” responsible for the state’s greatest disgrace. It was whispered about here today that there is a possibility that Ralston may not take a very prominent part in the Indiana campaign, after “opening” it. With the arrival of Taggart and Korbly the Indiana political . pot began to boil at a fierce rate. The excitement increased when the caU was sent out to the members o‘s the congressional delegation for a conference that was held tonight. Summons to the conference were sent out by Representative Korbly, who is a brother of the state chairman. “I wonder if we are being called in to be ‘touched’ for a campaign assessment?” said a member of the delegation, in a doleful tone of voice.

The threatened shortage of campaign orators 'and consequent dearth of oratory came up for prayerful consideration. Some time ago September 15th was fixed upon as the date for the opening of the Indiana democratic state campaign. At that time it was thought there would be no difficulty in securing orators A national reputation from among the members of the house and senate.

Since then the coils have tightened around members in orddr to hold a quorum here, and those who promised to go cannot fill their speaking engagements without making themselves liable to be docked $20.50 for every day they are absent from Washington. The situation is one that gives concern to the Indiana democratic leaders, who had hoped to secure the cream of oratorical talent for the Hoosier campaign. It is understood Chairman Korbly will try to persuade President Wilson to make at least one speech in Indiana for the benefit of Senator Shively, who is up for re-elec-tion.

“HUNKIES ATTACK SECTION FOREMAN

Tom Stephenson Assailed by Half Dosen Roumanians at Laura is Badly Beaten Up.

“Hunkies” working on the Giftord branch of the Monon railroad at Laura severely thrashed their foreman, Tom Stephenson, of MeCoysburg, Wednesday evening, according to a story which The Republican received today. The foreigners are Roumanians and they have been causing more or less trouble during the summer, l it is stated. They keep a supply of liquor on hand and indulge in drinking after the working hours. Wednesday evening it is reported that they took the handcar and made a trip to Gifford. They had not asked Mr, Stephenson for the privilege and he told -them not to take the car again. He boards at the home of Henry Doan, a half mile from the’station, and when he reurned from there in the evening he found several of the “Hunkies” ready to start the ear to Gifford again. He stopped them and they took after him. He tried to run into Wallace’s store, but one of them locked the door. He then started for the Doan home and a half doze? of the laborers after him. They -.vertook him and gave him a terrible beating, leaving him badly bruised and scarcely able to get to the home of the Doan’s. He got into communication with Sheriff Hoover and asked to come there and arrest the men who had beaten him up, but the sheriff informed him that he could not make the arrests without a warrant. Work on the road suspended today. Stephenson was able to take the train to McCoysburg and there was no foreman to manage the obstreperous foreigners. Whether arrests will be made or not is not known. Most of the foreigners are married and their wives live in Roumania. Notwithstanding the fact that they drink considerable booze they are said to send almost all of their earnings back to their families.
