THE UNITED STATES SENATORSUIP.

The question as to the indorsement of a candidate for the I nited States . senate having been raised, there was only one thing for ‘ the state convention to do with respect to it—<aml that was to decide it. This was lone after arguments by Samuel M. Ralston. Senator Shively, J. E, McCollough and John E. Lamb had been heard. Tire decision was that a candidate for the senate should be named, and many splendid Democrats were put before tha convention. After two ballots had been taken it became apparent that the delegates wanted to give the honor to John W.‘ Kern. Mr. .Kern was not a candidate, ‘ 11 is name had been used without his consent. He was voted for over his protest. But he could not prevent what the delegates were determined should happen. The result was that .every other man withdrew his. name and in doing so seconded Mr. Taggart’s motion to nominate Mr. Kern by acclamation. This action of the Candidates . for the senatorial honor was more than magnanii mous; it was magnificent. And no state contention has ever witnessed a more inspiring scene than was that which followed the unanimous choice of that beloved leader, John W. Kerri. While Mr. - Kern made it clear that he was not a candidate for the indorsement, the manner in which it came to him’ made Mt impossible for him to refuse it. His election is now only a matter pf electing a .DemA.' ‘ : "■ A

ncratic legislature, and this is a foregone conclusion if every Democrat in the state does his duty. And that Democrats' wil’ do their duty in this respect can admit of no' doubt or question.

. THIN DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVENTION. The prediction -that the Indiana Democratic state 'convention nf 1910 would be the largest ami. most enthusiastic . ever held in the state bv any party was verified. Never before have so many:Democrats gathered in Indianapolis for a convention as were there last week. And never before was such interest manifstcd in the proceedings of.a similar convention. , ' . , The question as to whether a candidate for the' United States senate senate should be indorsed had been much discussed, afid this fact doubtless added to the number present, but it was not the primary cause of the greatest outpouring in the state’s history. Democrats, were awake, active, and enthusiastic before that matter was mentioned, They believed that the signs of the times pointed not only to Democratic success next fall, but to the need ■thereof as well. In that belief they had made up their minds that their state convention should, in numbers, in spirit and in results measure up to the public expectation and to the rerequirements of the situation. And it did. The 1,747 delegates were in their seats promptly at every session. Thousands of eager spectators crowded the hall. Other thousands thronged the streets clamoring for admission, which the capacity of the hall denied. The convention was gathered for business, and it transacted it in order and with determination. ■ -In .every instance the majority ruled without offense, and the minority acquiesced in good nature. When the work was finished, harmony reigned and party success was assured. The Democrats of Indiana were never more entitled to congratulate themselves than they are now over the splendid unity that exists in the party.

BUCKET SHOPS

Have Taken Warning From the Government Activities. Washington, 1). C., April 30. Results , already have been accomplished indirectly by the crusade of the Department of Justice against the bucket shop business. In addition to the offices affected by the indictments against a number of principals scores of houses in the Middle West have' closed their doors, ami others are expected to follow. The Government is putting forth every effort to bring to Washington for trial the persons now under the ban, and hopes to have the cases well in hand - for the falF term of the District Courts.

Henry S. Robbins, of Chicago, who has been appointed by At-torney-General Wickershatri to assist in the prosecution’ . has had charge of the cases which- have come to the Supreme -Court as a result -of the activity of the Chicago Board of Trade. .Should the efforts' of the department toward breaking up the business entirely prove unavailing by prosecution under existing laws, it is s^ld'that new .legislation will be asked of Congress, This probably will take the form of making it an offense ■to communicate between the states by wire or otherwise information for the purpose of conducting or maintaining a bucket shop, and also making it an offense to lease wires for the purpose.
