TERRE HAUTE MAY BE FREED FROM BOSSISM Fpeclal to tho Indianapolis Journal. TERRE HAUTE, Ind.. May 2.-The most remarkable municipal campaign in the history of Terre Haute closed to-night with the Republican managers confident of carrying the city by not less than l.Ooo. The betting is that way. The common Impression Is the same and there is no attempt on the part of the Democrats to disguise their fear that it will so result, although they are working hard to the last and saying that outward indications are not always reliable. Mayor Steeg was elected for a second term two years ago by a little more than 1.000 majority, but since then the Tammany organization, which was then only well started, has been using- the city for the benefit of the bosses an-3 the public has become tired and disgusted with conditions.

Ilepuhlirnns llxpeet Victory. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. WASHINGTON, Ind., May 2.-The Republican city ticket is strong, but the city Is Democratic by a small majority, but a Republican victory is expected to-morrow because of the vigorous campaign that has been conducted. The Socialists have candidates for city ofTces. but not for councilmen. This Is believed to be beneficial to the Republican ticket, as most of the members of that party formerly were Democrats. Edward F. Meredith, candidate for mayor on the Republican ticket, carried the city Fcveral years ago. when he was a candidate for city Judge, and he is expected by many to he elected and probably help to carry the Republican city ticket with him.

UPLAND. Ind., May 2. With impressive services Dr. C. W. Winchester was this afternoon inaugurated as president of Taylor University, a Mithodis.t school located at Upland. Grant county. The charge to the new president was given by the Rev. T. J. Rassctt. D. D-. L. L. U. who is president of Upper Iowa University. The services have been in progress for the past four days, but the formal inauguration did not take place until 3 o'clock this afternoon. In his inaugural address Dr. Winchester spoke against interscholastic athletics. After reviewing the value of a college education and pointing out that the great men from ancient times until now were those with a college education, he said briefly:' "We magnify the college because God has magnified it. We believe we speak according to His mind wh-n we say that every young man and woman who aspires to the highest character and usefulness should pursue a college course. "In a first-class gymnasium, under rigid control of a skilled matter of that science, a student should take daily exercise. Beyond thl3 all the time that a student gives to athletics and physical culture is worse than wasted unless he intends to become a professional gymnast, a prize fighter, a hotel porter, a baggage smasher or a circus performer. Interscholastic athletics are no part of a legitimate work of college. They are an excrescence which should be cut off. They engross time and thought which ought to be given to study. They hold out a temptation to gambling, drunkenness and often Involve Sabbath-breaking. "Tho mission of Taylor University Is unique. Taylor stands for all that is highest in intellectual culture. It stands for primitive Christianity 'for the faith once for all delivered to the saints. Taylor stands for primitive manners. Her students cannot touch the wine cup, practice the social dance, frequent the playhouse br handle the gambler's tools. That may be narrow, but so it is. No tobaco smoke or Juice can pollute these grounds. Taylor stands for refinement no brutality, no brutal sport3. We may seem prudish, but we are content to wait until all colleges come and stand by our side, as they surely will." . 1 In concluding Dr. Winchester said: "I accept this trust reposed in me. I did not seek this office; I did not desire it. I believe Gol has called me. I am here to do His work as best I can, and with His help and yours, as long as He shall will." The exercises to-day opened with sunrise prayer meeting In the college chapel. Today was the birthday of Rishop Taylor, now deceased, who was the founder of Taylor University. Memorial services In honor of Rishop Taylor were held this morning. The memorial address was delivered by Dr. I.. A. Reeks, pastor of the First Methodist Church of Rluffton, Ind. He reviewed the life of Rishop Taylor, spoke of the founding of Taylor University and its rapid progress since its establishment. A big reception was tendered to-night to President Winchester. Members of the alumni and the student body attended the reception In large numbers.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal. HARTFORD CITY. Ind., May 2. The window glass industry, always beset with complications, has broken out in a new and unexpected place. A few weeks ago President Paul St. Peter, of old L. A. Sou. announced that his association would lease a number of idle factories and start them in operation to give employment to the Idle membership of his organization. It is understood that the manufacturers who employ woikmen of the St. Peter organization have made it known that when the labor organization starts into the manufacture of window glass and becomes an active competitor in the field of the windowglass market that they will no longer cmploy St. Peter's workmen. A strong pressure is being brought to bear upon the officers to abandon the scheme and it is believed that the labor organization will not engage in manufacturing. Last week it was announced that the St. Peter organization had leased the thirty-six-blower tank at Rrownsville, Pa., but it is denied positively at this time. It is positive that not a factory has been leased. A committee of officers and members of the executive board of the WindowGlass Workers' Association, L. A. 200, visited the headquarters of the American Window Glass Company last week and had a long conference with the officials of the trust. It is understood that the labor organization made it plain to the trust that if it would start Its Idle plants the plan of engaging in business would be abandoned. It is also reported that the new organization of window workers which was recently formed at Cleveland. O., Is making rapid strides, and that In point of membership has already outstripped the Denny branch. John rhlllips, jr., who retired as president of the Denny association Saturday night, is really the power behind the new organization. The Denny union Is scheduled to go over to the new union, bag und baggage, In a few weeks. STRUCK BY SPEEDING CAR, BOY IS NOT HURT
