Sept. 17 Tha election In Indiana will be a repetition cf the landslide in Maine if the democratic orators in Hoosierdom continue to mak? an issue out of the Wilaon league of nations is the confession of the Indiana Daily Times, the democratic paper of Indianapolis. Tha paper in voicing its opinion takes its cue from a statement made by Thomas Taggart. democratic candidate for United States senator. In which Y.o. commented on the Maine election and dwelt upon the assertion that the local issues in Maine transcended the league of nations Issue, which tha democrats sought to make the basis for their appeal to the voters. "There is no denying the fact that the democratic party received a eevare heating in the Maine election," the Times says. "The only difference ot opinion that can exist Is as to the reasons for the defeat. "The league of nations was made the overwhelming Issue by the democats la Maim; and practically no attention was paid to the state tesuas by either the democratic speakers or the somewhat inadequate organisation of the state. "The result was, as Mr. Taggart points out. that the local situation tran scended" the national Question and the party that made the most of all Us advantages not only won a victory but dl:T.ered a stinging defeat to Its opponents. "The present situation In Indiana Is ro different than In Maine, and, unless the democrats of this state take heed, the results will be no different than they were in Maine. "Fundamentally Indiana Is for the 3gu of Nations, but as we have repeatedly endeavored to point out, the league ot nations Issue is entirely too reraote. In the face of much closer issues,, to be relied upon for success In Indiana." This rebuke to Indiana democracy by the democratio paper in another Illustration of the harmony that doee rot exist in the party. The advice of the paper .that continual harping rn the Wilson league will not bring fjccess does not seem to . penetrate th heads of the Bosse-Hoftman directorship. The leaders in the Denies Hotel are still urging their speakers 'o preach ths Wilson league of nations and to Impress upon the women the wemfn especially that the covenant tTiat President Wilson brnught back with him. Is a document as eacred In Us corceptlon as the ten commandments. . Like the well-known person in the wa'er going down for the third time the democratic state organisation ' p-nning Us hopes that the women will swallow the Wilson league. It is w-th tenderness that the French Lick V'FS and ths mayor cf Evansville retr to the women and wit ha reverent sigh declare that the "women are for the league." i BUILDING FIGURES HIT THELOW MARK Aggregating a total of I2.621.4S3 in i cos: five hundred and flfty-two buildjlr.g permits have been issued in Gary ' since the flr?t of the year, according to figures compiled at the office of the ibJitdirig commissioner.
