RECALLS DAYS OF 18T7

[Special to The Indianapolis News) GREENFIELD. Ind.. April 27—Interest in the arrest of counterfeiters here more than forty years ago. and their subsequent sentence to prison, after they had flooded Indiana and other states with some of the best half-dollars ever made was revived recently by the finding of molds and other equipment used by the counterfeiters, in an old house they occupied in 1877. Alfred Teal and his son William lived In this house during the seventies. They were expert jewelers and owned a shop here. Alfred Teal also owned a plant for the manufacture of school desks and. with George Puterbaagh did an extensive business. They laid out Teal’s addition to Greenfield, and always took a part In local affairs. The son had charge of the jewelry store. Cfttse** Raided Hesse. Counterfeit half-dollars and nickels appeared in places visited by the men and suspicion was attracted to them, but it was many months before they were trapped. At'that time Indiana was ths scene of operations for another gang of counterfeiters, and the Teals plied the trade while federal agents were running down the other crowd. Suspicion that the Teals were making spurious coin at their home was caused by unusual acUvity night after night tei an upstairs room. One night men hid in a school building, across the street from the Teal home. Their observation convinced them that the Teals were making counterfeit money, but they obtained no conclusive evidence. Later Joseph Baldwin, at that time a business man here, climbed a tree in a yard adjoining the Teal home and saw the men at their work. This resulted in a ra^d. the arrest of the men and the confiscation of molds, counterfeit coins, batteries, and other equipment. Alfred Teal died in prison, but his son served bis term.

means that for the first time in the history of the Wilson administration the Democratic party force* in the senate are to be directed by a man who is and has been a successful leader of broad vision and of con-

servative policies.

Two interesting features of Underwood’s selection stand out, in addition to the fact of general recognition of his qualities for leadership. One Is that the Democratic minorities in both houses are now controlled by former opponents of President Wilson for the Democratic nomination for President, and the other is that although Underwood is an out and out “wet,” he was elected because Senator Hitchcqck. of Nebraska, withdrew in the face of defeat following defection of his “dry” supporters because of his stand fa-

voring light wines and beer. Underwood Changes Front.

The fact that Underwood has been an opponent of the President for the presidential nomination does not mean, however,# that there are to be radical differences of opinion'botwen the «n regard to Democratic policies. Underwood, in fact, has come from a [wsition of opposition to fhe treaty of peace to a position* of absolute support of the President’s position and there is no question but that Underwood will continue to work with Senator Hitchcock to have the treaty desires of the President carried out. While Underwood is a strong conservative, he seldom has permitted this mythical connection to interfere with his work for the best

interest of his party.

When the Democratic administration came into control in 1918 it found Senator Martin, of Virginia, as Democratic leader of the senate and Underwood as leader cf the house. While Underwood was still in the house some of the most constructive legislation of which the Democratic party can boast was enacted into law. principally through Underwood’s efforts.

Succeeded by Kltckia.

When Underwood came to the senate he was succeeded by Representative Claude Kitchin, whose proclivities toward the provincialism of his home towh, Scotland Neck, N. C., caused him to attain to .the unenviable position of a liability to hts party because of his unreasonable and unfair attitude on many questions. Kitchin remained leader in the house but Martin was succeeded by Senator Kern, of Indiana, in the senate. Although Senator Kern was liked, and well liked, by every man In the senate, he was never regarded as a great leader and the Democrats, therefore, went through a period of mediocre leadership at a time when they needed big men most. On Kern’s death Martin again succeeded to the leadership, and when Martin died, Senator Hitchcock became active

leader.

But neither Marlin nor Hitchcock was in the class with Underwood as a leader, and the belief is here that much of the unpopularity of the Democratic congt-ess wks due to the Inefficient leadership of this period. Now that Underwood has again become a leader the belief here is that he will do much to rehabilitate his party if he has his way, although there always will be some question whether Underwood will have his way, for he 4*\ a strong conservative and many of the tendencies of his colleagues and of the administration are toward radicalism.

IS OHIO PRIM ISSUE

Continued from Pago One. forenoon served to keep voter* away from the polls. As was expected, the heaviest vote was being cast by Republican*. the contest between Senator Harding and Leonard Wood having aroused considerable interest among voters. A very light Democratic vote was reported, the absence of contests on the Democratic ballot serving to allay Interest. “Writiag la” of Names. Reports from Youngstown are said to indicate that many voters contemplated writing in the names of candidates whose names were not on the ballot. These reports did not indicate whose names voters contemplated “writing in.” Supporters of Leonard Wood have been saying for several days that an organized movement was under way to have the name of Hiram Johnson written in, the purpose being to aid Harding. Friendly feeling between the Harding forces and Johnson’s managers was demonstrated early in the campaign when, after conferences, Johnson went on the ballots as second choice to Harding in certain districts. This was a privilege that was denied Leonard Wood except in the First and Second districts (Cincinnati) where it was evident that Wood was in reality the first choice of the voters. It has been apparent for some time that certain voting elements would be lost to Handing unless a “half victory” could be won for Harding by throwing them to Johnsoff via the “written in” ballot. 354 OF 1.50# PRECINCTS IN.
