Judge Walter Olds, of Fort Wayne, Withdraws From Race.

Another political bomb wsa dropped Thursday, when Judge Walter Olds, of Fort Wayne, announced his withdrawal from the race for the republican nomination for senator and, in a public statement, announced that he would support Harry S. NeW for the nomination. Olds said that he is more interested in the welfare of the republican party than he is in his own aspirations. He tells of his acquaintance with New since early manhood and recommends his intelligence and ability. Old's also stated that business reasons entered in and the democratic primary law demands that each candidate advertise, finance and perfect an drganization as completely as does each party in case an election would put the nomination out of the reach of a man with only ordinary means.
