‘STEVIE'S’ CRONIES FEAR HIS SLOGAN Sign 'All Bearers of Evil Tidings Shall Be Slain’ Worries Many G. 0. P. Leaders Now.

“All bearers of evil things shall be slain.” Under these phophetic words, written on a sign above the door of the private office of D. C. Stephenson on the third floor ,of the Kresge Bldg, have passed many of the present Republican leaders of Indiana. They were the political cronies of “Stevie,” who today have deserted him and who are fearing that the light of day will be turned upon their past connections with the former Ku-Klux Klan leader. Guiding Genius For “Stevie” was the guiding genius during the 1924 campaign when Ed Jackson was elected Indiana’s Governor. Stephenson the day after the election explained his theory of that campaign to a Times reporter. “Yes, it takes money to win campaigns; it’s the old hard cash that counts,” he said in his flag-decorated inner office. “I used plenty of money in this campaign, too. It takes it to line up these fellows. “Why did Jackson get the foreign vote in Lake County and why did

HE HAS TOLD MORE INVALIDS HOW TO TREAT THEIR TROUBLES THAN ANY MAN IN THE COUNTRY A. G. Payne of Kentucky, Known as “The Miracle Man of Science,” 1 Now at Haag’s Drug Store Introducing “Husky,” a Remarkable Medicine Which Is Relieving Thousands of Indianapolis Citizens of Stomach, Kidney and Liver Ailments.

New Jersey St. Woman Had Kidney Trouble for Five Years. Back and Left Side Painful; Could Hardly Walk Up Stairs. Health Restored Quickly. Day after day throngs of people call on A. G. Payne, who is at the Haag Drug Store, 114 N. Pennsylvania St., with his private secretary, J. W. Gray, explaining and medical preparation known as “Husky.” Yesterday Haag’s store was the shrine of hundreds who testified that they had been relieved of stomach, kidney and liver ailments by Husky. Mr. Payne comes from Lexington, Kentucky, and he has made a lifelong study of roots, barks and herbs that grow in the fertile bluegrass region of his native State. During twenty years of public life, lecturing before large audiences, often reaching well in excess of 5,000, Mr. Payne has told more people how to treat stomach, kidney and liver troubles than any man in the country. He is now here for the purpose of instructing everybody how to feel well and be vigorous at the age of sixtyfive. The herbs that grow in the eastern part of Kentucky, like hay, hemp and tobacco, possess superior qualities and that is one reason why Husky is such an unusual medicine. An example of what Husky has done for many is embodied in the statement of Mrs. Parsetta Summers, 1014 N. New Jersey St., this city. Mrs. Summers says: “I suffered with kidney trouble for five years and during all of that time I couldn’t find anything to relieve me. My back ached most of the time and my left side was so

he do so well in Vanderburg County?” was the query. Walb Figure Head , “Money, money—l sent them plenty,” replied the best sales manager of the Ku-Klux Klan ever had. During the 1924 campaign State Chairman Clyde A. .Walb was viewed by those in touch with affairs at Republican State headquarters as a figure head. “Walb is just a nice old man,” an attache informed a writer for the Independent magazine. “Stephenson is the brains of this campaign.” Whether or no, Daily McCoy, who then was State committee secretary, has been seen to scurry into Stephenson’s office with papers. Fred Was During Them Later when Jackson took office the sight of Fred Butler, Stephenson’s secretary, carrying portfolios of documents int othe office of Governor Jackson at the Statehouse was familiar to those who w'aited in the anteroom. Stephenson was the acknowledged teacher of George V. Coffin, Republican county chairman. “When Stephenson was told meth-

A. G. l’ayne sore that I could hardly lay my hand upon it. I couldn’t walk upstairs without getting short of breath and suffered untold misery. I felt tired all of the tjme. I became so nervous that I hardly knew what to do. I didn’t sleep soundly and often woke up with a headache. My appetite had dwindled away to about nothing. “I heard about Husky and tried it. I now feel like a different woman. My back and side do not hurt me. It is easy for me to go upstanrs. I don’t get short of breath and I’m not nervous. I have a good appetite and enjoy my food. I don’t tire out like I did before. It’s simply wonderful how Husky helped me.” People who don’t feel well should call on Mr. Payne. Either he or his secretary will be at 114 N. Penna. St. to receive you. Husky may be obtained at any of the Haag Stores and at all other well stocked drug stores everywhere.—Advertisement.

ods employed by Coffin in unseating Sepublit.an precinct committeemen ected by the Jewett-Lemcke faction were e. bit high-handed, Stephenson said: “I told him to do that. We’ve looked up the law on it and found we can do it. That’s why I have all these lawyers working for me.” “See Steve,” was the permanent direction to all those who wished favors from the 1925 Legislature. Early in the morning before the legislature was called to order, Stephenson lieutenants from both the Senate and the House would assemble at Stephenson's office to receive the orders of the day. In "Steve’s” office, Coffin one day expressed his belief concerning women in politics. Women Don’t Fit. “They just don’t fit in,” said Marion County’s political boss, “It’s a man’s game.” Stephenson said Coffin and Jackson often were his hunting companions and that Jackson was “a pretty good shot.” The stage machinery of the Stephenson headquarters was most elaborate. Private bell signals were transmitted from the inner office to his secretary in the anteroom. Private doors led from one inner office to another. Dummy telephones would permit the "Old Man” to hold alleged telephone conversations with the great when Stephenson wished particularly to impress his visitor. "You tell Jim Watson that I don’t want Harry New to do that," was a remark Stephenson uttered in the telephone "receiver” one balmy day during the 1924 campaign in the presence of a Times reporter. Pointed to Slogan "My organization is composed (of some of the leading men in every town,” Stephenson elucidated. "When I want something done I tell them to do it.” When the atmosphere and mystic bearing of the “Old Man’’ failed a bit with a member of his organization, “Steve” would call his secretary. “Did y°u show Mr. Blank the sign?” he would ask, referring to the inscription concerning the fate of those Who bore bad news. Many politicians today are fearing the prediction will materialize.
