THE EVENING REPUBLIC AN, RENSSELAER, IND.

WELL, WELL, JUDGE WILEY CAME BACK

Former Circuit Judge and Later On Appellate Bench Assigns Reasons For Return to G. 0. P.

Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 17.—Judge U. Z. Wiley, who for twelve years sat on the Indiana appellate bench, was one of the bigg'est figures in the Rioosevelt-Beveridge movement in Indiana in 1912. Today Republican State Chairman Will H. Hays received a letter from Judge Wiley in which he carefully reviewed the present political situation and announced that he had decided to support the whole republican ticket. In the course of his letter Judge Wile/ made it plain that the progressive party had degenerated into an ally of the democratic party and warned the voters of the state not to he fooled by the protestations of political virtue that are going up from the designing bosses of the hull moose party. Regarding the bL-partisan alliance Judge Wiley said: “The progressive party of today, through its leaders, hut not its rank and file, appears to be the bitterest enemy that the republican party has, and they are now hurling anathemas qpo'n the republican party that would put to shame a democratic ward politician, and yet this is just what is being done in the campaign of 1914. It appears to be no longer a political battle between the democratic and republican parties, but has resolved itself into a battle between the democratic party and the progressive party, as its ally, on one Side, and the republican party on the other.” Judge Wiley had the following to say regarding the management of the republican party; ‘Those who make the assertion that the republican party in Indiana today is under boss control and is being managed by machine rule are either ignorant of the facts as they exist or are purposely falsifying the truth. Never in. the;history of a political party in Indiana have the rank and file of a party had so much to do in shaping its policies and controlling its destinies. The party is not being managed and controlled by those in charge of the campaign ip the interest «! any selfish or personal ends, hut its affairs are being managed for the betterment of all the people to the §nd that good may come tci the greatest number, and that the political affairs of the state may again be put into the hands of safe and sane administrators.

“After a most careful investigation of this question, I have unhesitatingly reached the conclusion that any statement from any and every source, that the republks,n party of Indiana is under the control and dominion of political bosses, or a political machine, that such thought is father to the wish, and that the statement so asserted and re asserted, is a political bugaboo to keep in line the thousands of former progressives who are on the border line of again giving their support to the republican party, and an attempt to induce the many who have already declared their allegiance to that party to get them to return to the progressive party.”

William Chilcote, w T ho is now in the national military home at Marion, wTites to have The Semi-Weekly Republican sent to him at that place. Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Clinton, who live on a farm near this city, left yesterday morning for Custer City, Okla., having received notice of the death of his brother. Mr., and Mrs. George Gwilliam, son and daughter, John and Lillian, of Fowler, were Sunday guests of Mr. and. Mrs. Noalf Zeigler and family, north of town. Mrs. Roy Lewis slipped and fell at the hack porch of their residence near Rensselaer Saturday and fractured a hone in her right ankle. Dr. English attended her. Mrs. Theodore Sell, of Union City, and Mrs. Andrew Locker, of Portland, returned to their homes today -after visiting their brother, Howard Smith, of Barkley township. Mr. and Mrs, Thomas Clark and family and Mr. and Mrs. Charles McCashen, of Lee, autoed over to Parr Sunday and spent the day with their uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs; T F. Warne. Farmers who are interested in the dairying business can not well afford to miss the dairy show which will take place in Chicago and it is probable that a good many will go up next Tuesday, which is Indiana day at the show.

TAGGART TO TALK TO SAVE THE GANG

Head of Powerful and Corrupt Machine Goes On Platform in Effort to Rescue the Ship.

Indianapolis, Ind., Oct, ' 19—Fof tile first time in his long political career Thomas Taggart has found it necessary to go into the campaign and make speeches in order to try to save the democratic party from rout. Taggart and W. H. O’Brien, auditor of state, will devote four days of next week to a campaign speaking trip through the Twelfth and Thirteenth districts. The democratic state headquarters has anfiounced that Taggart aijd O’Brien will make speeches at the following places: Goshen, Tuesday night, Oct. 20. Kendallville, Wednesday night, Oct. 21. ' * *

Angola, Thursday afternoon, Oct, 22. Auburn, Thursday night, Oct. 22. Ft. Wayne, Friday night, Oct. 23. There was great surprise when the news became public that Taggart and O’Brien were going on the stump. Such a thing never happened before in the history of the party. Some facetious persons have said that this probably means that Crawford Fairbanks and Donn Roberts will go on the stump also for the democratic state ticket. It is pointed out that the democratic state ticke is in such a had fix just now that there was nothing left to do hut for Taggart and O’Brien to take the stump in its behalf. If they cannot save Homer Cook and the state ticket it is believed, then they cannot he saved. The cry went up from the state headquarters that the state ticket was in great dangei Taggart nominated the ticket and it was put up to him to save it if possible. The democrats had been greatly disappointed because many speakers tliat were wanted failed to show up in the campaign. It was, therefore, up to Taggart and O’Brien, his right-hand man, to jump in. Neither Taggart nor O’Brien is an orator. Taggart especially does not like to make speeches, and like O’Brien, knows little other than organization. It was pointed out that their taking the stump was the strongest possible admission they could make that the ticket is on the rocks. If it were not Taggart would would not take the stump. 4
