COMPLETE CONFIDENCE in a Republican victory in Indiana this fall was shown by the organization meeting of ward chairmen here last night at which patronage was the main theme 'stressed- by District Chairman James L. Bradford. ~ Political leaders don't start worrying about Patronage this early unless they figure the election is in the bag—as Mr. Bradford said it was in this county with the election machinery completely in the

hands of the G. O. P. organization. Mr. Bradford, who is busily en-

most powerful political machines ever erected in this state, did everything but make G. O. P. Gubernatorial Nominee Ralph Gates sign on the dotted line to deliver a proportionate share of state patronage to Marion county Republicans. Friends of Mr. Bradford said that the reason he did this was because he had reason to believe that Mr. Gates had been promising jobs pretty freely and he

Ostrom. “Our budget for the fall campaign will be around $100,000 to $125,000 for this county alone, the same as in the last campaign, with more for the state and nation, I think we'll have enough money.”—Mr. Ostrom. “Our opponent in this campaign (Governor Schricker) is a New Dealer.

I earned my spurs in the Republican party. If elected governor, there will be no bipartisan dealing. I'll be re-
