"I love Indiana,” he said, “And we will clean Indiana of her political sins. If one party dosn’t do it, the. other party will. And in purging our State of her sins, we must redeem the Republican party that was so dear to James-Whitcomb Riley, George Ade and Williaip Henry Harrison. “While we look at this drizzle of political depravity we wonder if Indiana has a monopoly on political iniquity.

Watson of Indiana was one of the Senators who permitted his picture and indorsement to be used on cigaret ads.” STATE BOARD GETS TWO PROTESTS ON TAX RATES .““5 Remonstrances of Taxpayers Association Certified by Auditor.
