handsome but he is highly spoken of by the party pr?ss as biinga regular Democrat, worthy ani well qualified, a practicing attorney for twenty-five years and an instructor at intervals in the lawdepartment of Indiana university. M

You say your dog climbed a tree,' a friend Haid. 'You know that can t be trje. A dotf can't climb a tree.' ' 'Yes.' the man answfiel emphatically, 'but this dog just had to climb a Itrce.'' 'Nw, I have got to get that nomination. That's all there is to it." Miiburn has alrtadv visited forty-two counties in pushing his campaign, and ho says he has met with noch encourrgement. In 1910 he wag I candidate against Thomas M. Honan for the nomination for attorney general, and Honan only beat him by about thirty-live votes in the state convention. Miiburn says he believes he has such a wide acquaintance over the state aud has always been such a good working demo rat that he party will be willing to nominate tun.

Handsome but Highly Sjpoken Of.' January 22, 1914, had directly under Mr. Miiburn's picture the strong "likeness" of Attorney R. M Miiburn of Dubois county, for Attorney General at the coming Democratic State onvention of the Fourth Congressional District who Was nominated over plurality of only 38 votes. Like Horai Miiburn is not particularly

yer and wed qualified for the position to which he asm e. Dubois County has for years rolled op Democratic pluralities of from 1,700 to than 2,090, and yet ia its whole history hie never had but one state office " The Evaaqville Coirier iari of him "Mr, Miiburn needs no introduction to the. Democracy of southern Indiana, or iajfowd, of the entire state. He is an able lawyer, i patriotic citieu an L a lean. Conscientious man. There is no (motion of his ability, his integrity and ! 1 " " t i I. .. 4 1 ! ' ' I his fitness for the ctlice. Caiiventio Would Hake No Miatake Should It Nominate Miiburn.' The Franklin Democrat recentlsai i : "At the next Democratic S ate conven'ion ttienameof Hon. Riehard M. Miiburn, of Jasper, Dubois county, will be hefoie the delegates for the nomination for attorney. general. He made a gocd race for the ortice in UUO when Thomas M. Honan, the present inc a bent was nominated. Mr. Miiburn has esreeial fitness for the ottice, is a worthy Democrat, and ( omes from a county that for several years has given the largest Demoeratic majority of any county in 'he State. It has been represented but once on the state ticket. Tnis fact deserves consideration by the de'egates. I. From anv viewpoint there is nothing inl mm ti 1 opportnne or laappiopriaLe in jut. .unburn seeking tbts nomination anil the couventioa would make no mistake should it nominate him." Congressman Karnhart's paper The Roch ster Sentinel of Deeemb! 22, 1913 contained the following: llas Practically a Free "IIou. RiebarJ M.
