eliminated, but no one can tell what i else ''may take : place. Although the Taggart fellows are still claiming tho , election for Korbly, there is in the air ' a spirit of : compromise between the

j two warring elements, and there Is "a good possibility' that such a plan may T?fVq be followed, and some other man than j either - Korbly or Hoffman be chosen.

: Just how this will come about, howi ever, if its comes at all, cannot be told J at this time, but there are some moves jon .the checker board of the game that ' Indicate that it may happen, i No one can tell who may be the comj promise candidate. He may be an Inidianapolis man, or he may come from some other part of the state. But the -fight has reached the point 'where the .Taggart men would . give a. direct ! affront to CSovernor Marshall by elect-

a statement made not long ago by W H. O'Brien, state auditor, is not ,a Democrat but is in politics simply for business reasons. Fairbanks poses as, a Democrat, and is generally accepted as the real power behind the Taggart throne. So, in view of rViis situation, and in view of the strained relations existing between the two factions, the Idea of a compromise has taken some root among the politicians. Some of tho conservative Democrats, who Sire looking for a Moses to lead them out of their wilderness, believe that such a plan would afford the means of their salvation. ! These who talk compromise mak another objection to the candidacy of ; both Hoffman and Korbly on another ground, and that is that both are re1 garded as brewery candidates. They say that Korbly would be the repre-

WHO WILL THEY ELECT CHAIRMAN? CContlnued from Page l. the answer is as elusive as the answer to "How old is Ann?" Who will they elect state chairman tomorrow? If any man could answer that question today he would be counted as one of the wonders of the modern age.
