LISTEN TO MR. MURPHY.

Has Carried Business Around With Him—lt’s the Life, It’s the Life. Indianapolis, Oct. 2s.— Charles J. Murphy, democratic chairman of the Tenth congressional district, and a member of the public service commission. Monday, announced that he bad been considering the Vincennes water rate case, one of the more important cases before the commission, while he had been engaged in political duties that took him away from the city much of the last two months, Mr. Murphy said that some persons in his district, who did not know the exact status of the work now being done by the public service commission, bad criticised the district chairman for his alleged political activities at the expense of the conimssion’s time. He said that to these . critics >he desired to say that his time since e campaign began had been given to the work of the commission in as great ratio as reasonably can be expected of a state officer.

He said that both he and Chairman Thomas Duncan, who has been touring the state in the interests of the democratic party for weeks, have been working at nights on the commission cases and have been devoting their. Sundays to the commission work. He said that since the cdmpiission was appointed business has piled up on its shoulders so quickly that every member of the body has averaged as much as sixteen hours a day in the work since he was appointed; ■ • He said that since the campaign started he has been unusually careful to give more than an ordinary day’s work to commission business each day. He said he has carried the evicase with him wherever he has traveling on political business and that Chairman Duncan also has carried commission business with him to work on at odd times when he was campaigning. Mr. Murphy also sat to hear evidence in the Gary lighting ease two days last week.

WILLIAM H. ADE Progressive Candidate for Congress

PLOT TO KNIFE WILSON.

Suppose Taggart wins in Indiana; suppose Sullivan wins in Illinois; suppose Murphy wins in New York; suppose the Harmon crowd wins in Ohio— does any sane and reasoning Wilson-Bryan Democrat imagine that the Taggart-Murphy-Harmon delegates to the 19 16 Democratic national convention will be Wilson-Bryan men? 1 hink what those four states, working together, will mean in the national Democratic convention. Add Michigan, under Ferris, and a few others of like note, and it is easy to see that the victory this year of these combined state bosses means in 1916 the overthrow and retirement of Woodrow Wilson by action of the bosses in control of the convention of that year. The plot is now being worked out by the machines in the pivotal states. The bosses today are trying to induce voters to believe that a vote tor the state boss and his machine power is a vote to back up Wilson. The cold truth is that a vote for Taggart in Indiana and a vote for Sullivan in Illinois, the Harmon Ohio crowd and the Murphy crowd in New York, is a vote to strengthen the anti-Wilson conspiracy for 1916. .If the Wilson-Bryan Democrats wish to see the one-term plank enforced by the bosses against Wilson, then the Wilson-Bryan Democrats will vote for the Taggart machine still greater power than it now has. If the anti-machine Democrats wish to destroy the cabal of the crooked bosses against Wilson, then the Wilson-Bryan men will rally as they are doing, to elect the Progressive ticket and to rebuke the machine politicians who would displace Wilson with one of their own favorites.

- /Leading standpat piachine meh are saying that voters ought to vote against a constitutional convention. Ihe standpat platform “favors’’ a constitional convention. Rank and file Republicans actually do want a constitutional convention. Rank and file Republicans naturally resent the public repudiation of their party platform declarations. It is up to Hugh Miller to call to account the standpat machine men who are making a mock and a by-word of Republican integrity and good faith. Is Mr. Miller for a constitutional convention, with the rank and file, or is he with the tsandpat machine and

against carrying out the party platform? Of course Miller can nob be with both sides on this fundamental thing. Of course Mr. Miller can not dodge the issue nor escape from the consequences of the perfidy and dishonor of the standpat machine.

Bynum Hits Bosses.

\\ illiam D. Bynum, formerly a Democratic member of congress and for many years a leared on the stump and in Democratic councils, has taken his place quietly as a supporter of the Progressive cause, and has published in the Indianapolis Star, a Progressive paper, a splendid letter in which he denounces the I aggart machine and its mismanagement of public affairs. Mr. Bynum, in a convincing way, shows the voters that the Taggart machine must be overthrown. ,He appeals especially to anti-machine Democrats to vote against the Taggart ticket, lie proposes on his own part to vote with the Progressives and against both the Taggart machine and the standpat Republican machine. He wishes to keep the evil standpat machine from regaining power. He knows the standpats are discredited and unable to win the confidence of the voters. He knows the Progressives have the confidence of the voters.
