TIMES BUREAU, AT STATE CAPITAL,

inaianapoiis, ind., Feb. 17. By this time next week the state of Indiana will have a new constitution, as far as

under the whip of a democratic gov

ernor, to make one. And when the bill

for the new constitution passes the two houses of the general assembly and is signed by the governor the issue for

the campaign of 1912 will have been

drawn and the lines of battle laid.

inaoufrtedly the question that will

be uppermost In the campaign nex year In this state will be: shall Indi

ana submit to having one man dictate

what her constitution shall be? All other Issues will be sidetracked ' and this one will come to the front and remain there until the question has been settled. This is the prediction made today by one of thebest posted men In Indiana on politlear affairs. He says the people will be called on to determine whether they shall make their own constitution or whether they shall accept one ready made and handpicked for them by one man. ' "I look for the campaign of 1912 to be the hardest fought campaign that has ever been seen in the Btate." said this man. "It will be unique In the history of the country. On one hand

will gather the democrats, or the bulk of them,, .and . along with . them there will be all of the radicals in the state. The proposed new constitution provides for the recall, the referendum, the initiative, and all of the other socialistic ideas and Isms that have been argued and preached in Indiana by the social

ists and other radicals for years. The

only radical idea that will be absent

from the new constitution will be state

wide prohibition of the liquor traffic.

ine constitution win not contain a word about that, and this fact Is going to cause the democrats a great deal of trouble In the next campaign when the

constitution will be the issue.

''I predict that when the democrats of this state have framed their new

constitution and it is presented to the people at the next election, the very fact that they are playing to the radi

cals and socialists will cause the pee

pie to take notice, and that there will

be such a resentment of the proposition

as will cause the conservative, patriotic people of the state to rally under an anti-constitution banner and defeat the

proposition.

"All else will be forgotten in the campaign of 1912 in this state and the

question of the adoption of the constitution will be the one issue on which the people will divide. Undoubtedly the present constitution ought to be revised. It is out of ate In many respects. Indiana has outgrown It. But I do not believe the people of Indiana will admit that there Is any one man in the state who possesse senough wis

dom and statecraft to make a constitu- I 'tlon to. bring one complete out of his own mind. - I "The proper way -to handle . - this question would be for the people to hold a constitutional convention and' frame a constitution in that way. The' delegates to this convention would be selected for their peculiar fitness to

deal with, such a momentous question and there would be 150 men Instead of one to draft the document' Of course, It Is admitted that there Is danger even

In this plan, for the Interests would undoubtedly seek to elect delegates to such a convention who would frame a constitution to suit them. It Is likely that a constitution prepared at such

a convention would be full of Jokers '

and or provisions that would be in the Interest of the corporations and other special interests, but the constitution would then have to be put up to the people for a vote to ratify or reject It, and the people could either adopt It or vote It down. But the . constitution would at least have the virtue of be

ing the product of the minds of 150 men Instead of one man, as is the case now.

But all -of this is mere talk. The

one-man constitution is going through. !

The democrats have made It a caucus

measure and they are going to support It and pass the bill. The only thing left for the people to do is to go Into

the campaign next year and vote It

down. And I believe that is what

they will do."

This man pointed out that one of

the strongest factors in next year's campaign against the new constitution

will be the temperance forces of the state. These people have for several years been trying to reach the point where they could get a vote of the

people on the question of adopting an amendment to the constitution of the state to prohibit the manufacture and sale of Intoxicating liquor in this state. The liquor people have been strong

enough to defeat every effort thus far

made. And the proposed new consti

tution does not say a word along that

line. The temperance people feel that If a constitutional convention was' held

they would be strong enough to elect a majority of the delegates who would

be In favor of a state-wide prohibition clause In the constitution, and then they would win their fight. But In this Instance the new constitution will be

adopted by a wet legislature and sub

mltted to the people. The temperance forces. - under the leadership of the

anti-saloon league, already has started

Its machinery to working for the de

feat of the constitution at the election next year. They say they will not quit

until the last vote Is in.

So it looks like the campaign of 1912 will be the hottest seen in this state in

many years. Every condition points in

that direction.

Another thing that has caused talk among the politicians is what effect this

new move will have on the chances of

Governor Marshall as a ' presidential possibility in 1912 or any other year.

In his new constitution he fairly out Bryans Bryan when it comes to radical

ism. He has put into the constitution

about everything that Bryan has ever stood for, and has gone further in that

he proposes to give Indiana a new

constitution whether the state wants

it or not. Persons who are opposed to

Marshall as a candidate for president

are saying that he would not be a safe

candidate because of his radicalism

When the bill carrying the new constitution comes on for consideration in

the senate and the house it is certain

that the republicans will oppose It as

It stands, and that they will offer many

Important amendments to it. Of course none of them will be adopted because

the bill has been made a party caucus

measure, and there are sixty ' demo

crats and only forty republicans in the

house.

It is expected that the bill will pass

the senate either today or tomorrow,

and that it will then pass the house by Wednesday. If this plan Is carried out Governor Marshall will probably sign the bill next week, and the work

1 will be done.

One politician pointed out In conver

satlon last , night that the republicans

themselves are to blame for the bring

ing forth of a new constitution. He

said: "The republicans could have pre

vented it if they had gone to the polls

last fall and voted their ticket instead

of voting to put the democrats In con

trol of the legislature. I have no doubt

but that there are many republicans In

the state today who are sorry they

voted the democratic ticket last fall

They defeated Senator Bevertdge for

re-election and they made the repeal

of the county option law a certainty

but they did not realise at the time

lust what else they were doing. Few

of , them ever thought that the demo cratic legislature would ever under

take such a thing as this- If they had

they probably would have voted differently.

84 V4 percent. The fact Is further revealed, that while the growth of the city of Gary

has been truly remarkable and has made the population of Calumet town

ship Jump from 1,408 in 1900 to 17.983 in 1910, yet Calumet township Is still far from being the center of population of the county. That honor is held by North township, which has within its borders 48,861 people, two and two-thirds times as many as in Calumet. It Is safe to say that more people have been added to the population of North township in the five years since Gary located than

have been added to Calumet township in that time. Big Growth la North. This Is easily demonstrated. The population of North township was 21.020 in 1900. The figures of the 1910 census show that It now has 48,361. This is an increase of 27.341 in ten years. It Is a fact that most of this growth has taken place in the last Jive years, but dividing the increase for the ten-year period by two, the increase in North township Is shown to have been at least 16,670 in the last five years. The increase In Calumet township as a result of Gary's coming has only been 16.674 in that time. The agricultural townships of the county have either stood still or have lost population. The town of Lowell has lost forty people in the last ten years. Cedar Creek township has lost ninety-five people in the same period. Center township . gained 230 people In that time.

"I will save you the trouble," and with this he took' the purses and helped himself to the contents, which amounted to a total of 65 cents. Luckily the two young ladlos Intending ' to take enough money to pay for their monthly tuition, but had put it off until the following week. The highwayman, upon finding so small amount of money, uttered an

oath when he handed the bags to the

girls and made his way down the tracks, where he later disappeared In the woods to the north. Misss Hason and James, without looking back, ran nearly the entire distance to Gary, where they later telephoned to their parents, who in turn notified the police.
