GRANTCOUNTY G.O.P. HENCHMEN PUT INTO DAZE

Democrats Glow as Soldiers’ Home Vote Spread Over Country.

Staff Correspondent of The Times. MARION, Ind., Aug. 7.—Members of the old guard machine republican stronghold today are wondering “where they are at.’’ And with the wonderings and musings of the G. O. P.. democratic workers and candidates arc finding a new ray of hope in the* disdainful attitude of the republican candidates, and are looking toward a grand success at the polls next November. A In the last several days an incident took place here, on orders from the war department at Washington, that has changed the whole political aspect of Grant county. For years this county has been listed among the few in the state that can be counted on to return a substantial majority at each election for the republican party. In the last several elections. with exception of 1912, when the split in the ranks iof the republican party opened wide a gap which permitted a few democrats to slip in and “cop’' a few offices in the courthouse, none hut republicans hare dared hope ever to east their eye? on the coveted county offices. One of the most important factors in holding this county in the republican lists of the state was the vote returned from the Marion branch of the National military homes.

ALWAYS WORKED PENCIL. PROPERTY. Housing abont 1,500 veterans of the Civil and Spanish-Amerlcau wars, in eluded among whonJ were many colored voters, whose blue penciled cross always went above the "spread eagle." the Soldiers’ home always has been a valuable asset to the republican party In Gran' county. Every candidate for county office, and not a "few for state offices, considers it a fatal mistake to fail to include au active canvass of the home before the election. Bui the thing that is causing all the worry and uncertainty to the politicians of the republican party and which I* bringing joy to the democratic rank and tile la the fact that a recent order ot the war department has caused the old soldiers housed in the Marion home to be removed and scattered about to other branches in the country, with orders to fill their places with wounded soldiers of the world war. The plan of the war department is to convert the soldiers’ home into a vocational training school for crippled world war soldiers of the United States. All the work of years, all the steady confidence of the republican party in Grant 'county suddenly has come to naught, like the toy balloon explodes when the small boy sticks a pin into it, with the action of the government in transferring these votes to other parts of the country. SPRING EFFORTS OF NO AVAIL NOW. The recent act of the county commissioners. John A. Frazier. .Tohn D. Williams and John W. Heavilin. all republicans, and the latter two candidates for re-election, in gerrymandering the precinct boundaries of the county last spring for political purposes, will be of no avail now. Expressions of the republican workers, such as “Nothing to it, the entire ticket will go through," have changed now, with the change of the soldiers' home vote, to sayings like, “Wonder what effect this will have on our chances?” and “Wonder how the new members of the home will line up?" In each electiop a decided air of certainty always prevails among republican candidates and about republican headquarters. to the effect that “all we have to do is to hold onr own, and the voters do the rest." ( Now they ore up against the proposition of going out and conducting a campaign lnan effort to line up enough vote* to cancel the effect* which is brought by the removal of about COO good republican votes, and replacing them with several hundred votes of “unknown intent." And all the while the democrats of Grant county are gently rubbing their chins and looking forward to November 2.

Informed Lloyd George be had com- > munioated to Moscow the Britislv* decision to'side with Poland in the new war and renew the blockade. < Kemenoff Charged the Poles were de- j laying armlstl-'e and peace negotiations, | hoping to bring about foreign intervention. He declared the bolshevik! could not halt their advance until they were assured the Poles would not take advantage of the respite to bring up reinforce, ments and thea renew hostilities. Russia will halt, he said, when th* t Poles give reasonable guarantee* that j they will partially disarm and cease re- I eruitlng. He pledged Russia to respect Poland's Independence. It was made plain the bolsheviks want to sign peace with Poland on the' fle'd of battle and then submit the pact sot ratification at the London general peace conference where they can come in a* victors, demanding worldwide reognition and trade advantages. Steports that ihe Russians had started sn army to invade Persia and that they ! were threatening British possessions in the east were received here with reserve.

BRITISH MAKE STRONG EFFORTS FOR PEACE LONDON, Aug. 7.—Tbe British government, in Its efforts to prevent anew European war, is making strong representatiows to Moscow, according to information from an authoritative source today. But it is preparing Tor any eventuality. The dangers arising from the uncheked advance of the Russians through Poland have been intensified by news of a great red invasion of Persia which menaces British Interests in India. The Daiiy News is authority for the statement that preliminary 'instructions have been sent to the allied commanders on the Black sea to co-operate with Gen. Wrangel, the anti-bolshevik" leader in southern Russia, In the event of certain contingencies. While it is not officially confirmed that any decisive steps have yet been taken to tighten the blockade on soviet Russia, reports were current today that British destroyers are on their way to the Baltic. British newspapers, in their editorial comment today, were more hopeful of peace than they were yesterday. “There is ground for saying that tbe British government is bringing pressure upon the Russians to act reasonably and to give guarantees to Poland by their own behavior that their engagements will be carried out," said the Dally Express. Thfs optimism was born out by statements of British foreign office officials. They expressed strong hopes that a complete agreement would be reached by the British and French premiers.

POWER HOUSE AND BRIDGE AT STANDSTILL

County Can’t Sell Bonds— Await Report of Attorney.

The failure of the eourty to sell at.- j proxlmately SIOO,OOO worth of bonds td | complete work on the new power house at Sunnyside and to bujld anew North- j western avenue bridge and approach has i caused the work to come to a standstill. ' This situation finds Sunnyside With an uncompleted power house on its hands and winter approaching. “The power house has been practically completed, but there are no funds available for equipment," explained County i Auditor Leo K. Feeler. The county council some months ago authorized the sale of $350,000 worth of bonds, of which SIOO,OOO was to have been immediately sold. As the statutes fixed a 5 per cent limit to the tuberculosis bonds, It has been Impossible to sell SIOO,OOO worth this summer, Mr. Fesler states. TRY TO SELL CITIZENS BONDS. Because of the immediate need of funds to equip the power house, an effort is being made to sell SIOO,OOO worth of the tuberculosis bonds to citizens on a public spirit basis. So fnr this has failed, the county auditor states. The failure to dispose of the bonds at 5 per cent also holds up the work on the erection of extra buildings to accommodate approximately fifty new patleuts. The county council is awaiting the result of an investigation of the county attorney and the county engineer on the Northwestern avenue bridge situation. This made necessary because of i the request of Merle Walker, attorney for William H. I’rlce, receiver for A. J. • alker. attorney for William H. Price, receiver for A. J. Yawger & Company, who holds the contract for the bulldlug j of the Northwestern avenue bridge. At a meeting of the county' council a few days ago Mr. Walker, asked the' council to authorize the increase of the' bond Interest from 5 per cent to <1 pfer cent on the Northwestern avenue bridge bonds. t The bonds have never been sold because of an errhr in advertising them and au opinion of the county attorney. Mr. Walker now asks the council to in- j crease the interest to C per cent, and In i this way it is thought that the bonds can j be sold. * . MR. PRICE MAY “SIT TIGHT.” If no . Mr. I’rlce, who holds the con- j tract, expects to 'sit tight" and wait until the county produces at least $275,()00. County Auditor Fesler is of the opinion that if the bond rate Interest is raised new bids for the erection of the Upidgc should be made. That plan would result lu litigation in the courts, because Mr. Walker states 4 that the people he represents have u valid contract. Mr. Wsik.'r points out the price of materials has advanced over $29,000 since , the contract was drat awarded, and that < new freight rates will soon go into es- j feet. There la still another problem involved j In the Northwestern avenue bridge situ- j r.tlon which is giving the council and the commissioners much concern. The commissioners first authorized the j Sheehan Construction Company to In crease and Improve the road or np-N proaches leading to the present small and Inadequate Northwestern avenue bridge. v NEW BRIDGE 18 HIGHER. Tbs new bridge will be much higher j than the present one and this necessitates Increasing the grade. The company which Mr. Walker representa will liavj* to build au Improved roadway to the bridge upon part of the work completed by the Sheehan people. Mr. Walker explains that the com pany he representa has assumed the obligation to increase the grade approaches. y * * The county council will meet In special session to consider the request to raise the interest on the bridge bonds as soon as the county attorney and the county engineer are ready to make recommendations.

‘KID’S ALIVE; QUIT YOUR WORRIN’ ’ " % Suspect’s Admission in Coughlin Case Gives Ray of Hope.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 7.—Aguato Pasquale. alleged to be the “erank” In the mysterious case of kidnaping of Blakely Conghlin. Norristown (Pa.) baby, had his first night’s, sleep In five days last nlgbt. Tbe man was completely exhausted after constant questioning since his arrest on Monday. When he promised to tell all he knew at 5 p. ra. today unless the child was turned over to its parents by that time, authorities agreed to permit him to rest during the night.

Coughlin, father of the kidnaped baby, was bappy when he was told of “the crank's” admission. Norristown itself was confident that the child would be home soon and preparations were made for a real home-coming celebration. While the prisoner has not revealed th# Identity of the woman whom he claim* has the child, polibe said they were working on important clews which they believed would lead to her apprehension.
