POINTS TO INDIANA ELECTION

Wave of Opposition Throughout the

Country to the Trade Declared ' To Be Receding.

ACTORS' FUND BENEFIT. New York, Dec. 11. As large an au

dience as ever crowded the old Broadway theater filled that playhouse this

afternoon on the occasion of the annual actor's fund benefit. The entertainment was furnished by William Gillette, John Drew, Blanche Bates, Ethel Bar-

rymore, Miss Billle Burk and other well known players now appearing la New York, together with, a number who came over for the occasion from Bobton and Philadelphia. The proceeds of

the performance will provide Christmas cheer for the inmates of the actors' home on Staten Island and for other

members of the profession who. are ill or out of work.

Washington. Dec. 11. The National

Liquor league of the United States, in

session here, crowded lustily of the

present democratic victory in Indiana and sarcastically denounced Governor

Hanly and Judges Samuel Artman and Ira Christian. There were present men

from all parts of the country, who hnadle liquor ove rbars or sell it in wholesale quantities, including sever

al Indiana delegates. The league ex tracted special comfort from the In

diana situation, and at intervals mem

bers would slip away, from the meeting to a nearby bar, where they drank

to the everlasting discomfiture of Gov ernor Hanly.

It was the first meeting of the league

since the election, and its members

went on record officially in regard to Indiana. A statement which was unanimously adopted prepared by the

secretary, under the caption "Defeated

Prohibition Statesmen,'- says: Points Them Out.

Look at the slain: Governor Hoke

Smith, for renominallon In Georgia

Governor Beckham of Kentucky, for United States senator; Govertor Car-

mack of Tennessee, for Governor; Gov ernor Harris of Ohio, for Governor

Governor Folk of Missouri, for United

States senator; for Governor, Watson

of Indiana, defeated; Governor Jacob

son of Minnesota, defeated; Senator

Hemenway of Indiana, for re-election John C. Stockton of Florida, for Gov

ernor; Congress Hepburn of Iowa, for congress; Senator Rose of Ohio, father of the local option bill; Senator Sietes of Ohio, sponsor of the local option bill; Senator Mack of Ohio, chairman of

the temperance committee; Senator

Berry of Illinois, father f the local

who declared - the liquor business 11

legal; Judge Christian, who said "me too," and a host of smaller fish not worthy of mention that have gone down

to their political defeat clutching the

broken reed of prohibition.

Like the leaves of the forest when summer is green, that host, with their

banners at sunset, were seen; like the leaves of.the forest when autmn hath

blown, that host on the morrow lay

'witfierea'ahd strewn. """ Hanly Blamed for Defeat.

The statement of the liquor men, fol

lowing the first outburst of mingled sarcasm and poetry, declares that the

new legislature of Indiana is demo

cratic as a result of Governor Hanly palline- a soeclal session when he

forced through county option. Then comes the following under the subhead, "Indiana Repudiates Hanly' Probably the hottest contest over the prohibtion question was in Indiana, because of its pivotal character in the national election. Governor J. F, Hanly, republican, is a well-known prohibition advocate, and secured control of the republican state convention. He secured a county option plank in the platform. The democratic party platform advocated village and township option. . ' ' Governor Hanly, however, was not satisfied, and, as the campaign progressed, called a special session of the legislature, which was republican and procured the passage of a county option law. In this step he was ably assisted by the republican nominee for

pftTnmor. James Watson, and United

States Senator Hemenway.

The action of the governor caused much criticism, and- in the campaign

county option became the issue. The state went republican on president by 10,000 plurality, but the .republican "candidate for governor, Watson, was defeated by Marshall, democrat, by over 18,000, while the republicans also

int the legislature, which will now

elect a democrat as United States sen

ator to succeed Senator Hemenway, Governor Hanly's associate in the coun

ty option fight.
