Evening Republican, Volume 19, Number 179, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 30 July 1915 — New Democratic Paper. [ARTICLE]

New Democratic Paper.

Kirby Risk, of Lafayette, candidate for the democratic nomination for governor, is to be the publisher of a new democratic weekly paper according to the Lafayette Journal. The paper will be started at Indianapolis and will be a full-sized Sunday morning paper, advocating the cause of progressive democracy. Ri§k is said to be the candidate of the Bryan faction of the democratic party in Indiana, and claims to be a real progressive democrat. He is opposed to W. H. O’Brien, of Lawrenceburg, and when the campain warms up we wifi see whether there are more Bryan democrats than Wilson democrats in Indiana. The paper will be called “The Forum,” and will be edited by Horace Herr, former editor of the Indiana Times.
