MUST STICK TO FACTS CANDIDATE OWEN PLACED IN AN AWKWARD PREDICAMENT. He Mont Speak In the Presence of Captain Myers, Who ill Hold Him Down to the Cold Troth—A Joint Discussion Between the Heeds 'Of the Tickets. Grand Opening of the Campaign In Each County Next Saturday—Senator Voorhees Speaks at Home. The voters of Indiana are assured a most interesting feature of the canvass in the joint discussion between the heads of the tickets, recently arranged by Chairmen Taggart and Gowdy. j Knowing full well the matchless ability , of Captain Myers as a stumper, Chairman Taggart early issued a challeH&e for a joint discussion between him and j Mr. Owen. Chairman Gowdy was not so anxious, j What ho most desired was to get Owen j off in some out-of-the-way owner of the state where he could talk uninterruptedly and where his broad assertions of alleged facts would? go unchallenged. Mr. Gowdy ha<l mapped out a campaign of elaborate misrepresentation and realized that Owen would be highly efficient in carrying it opt if left undisturbed. Mr, Gowdy hemmed and hawed and squirmed but Mr. Taggartrwas unmerciful and forced Mr. Gowdy to either arrange a joint debate or; acknowledge that his candidate was unable to meet the issue. With much fear and trembling, Mr. Gowdy at last gavohis reluct at couseat and the following dates for the meeting of Captain Myers and Mr. Owen were arranged; DISTBJOT. I>ATt:. PLACE.

The hoar for holding these meetings will be determined by the district chairmen and announced later. The arrangement of this series of meetings is regarded as a substantial initial victory for the Democrats, for even the Republican managers recognize the superiority of Captain Myers to his antagonist as a political speaker. In addition to this the presence of Captain Myers will compel Mr. Owen to stick more closely to facts than he would otherwise, "And facts are not good Republican arguments this year.
Meetings to Be Held lu Every County Saturday, Sept. S3, Saturday, Sept. 32, will put a crimp in Republican hopes in Indiana. That day will mark the formal opening of the Democratic campaign, and from that time on till the closing of the polls the pace will be fast and furious. On Saturday, Sept. 32, the gallant Democracy will be out iu full force in every county. Such a magnificent array of orators hits never before been marshaled into service iif polit'cai battle on one day ip Indiana. Among the orators for the day will be a largo number of speakers of national repute. But it would scarcely seem necessary' to got ptoplo from outside the state, for Indiana’s Democracy has a host of speakers who cannot be excelled, who will be heard on opening day. It is impossible to name them all, but among them will be the eloquent Senator Yoorhees, the erudite Senator Turpie, the logical, argumentative Governor Matthews, the forceful, bluut and powerful Attorney General Smith, Congressmen Bynum, Cooper, Taylor, Bretz, McNagny, Brwkshire, Holman, Brown and Martin; Hon. S. M. Stookslager, Hon. John W. Kern, Hou. Charles L. Jewett, Hon. Joseph E. Bell, Hon. Henry C. Bell, Hon. Patrick Keefe and a host of others to whom the Indiana Democrats delight to listen. It w ill certainly be a great day for the Indiana Democracy. ____ Senator Voorhees to Speak. Senator Yoorhees intends to take an active part iu the campaign and many opportunities will be offered to listen to his matchless oratory. The senator will open his speaking campaign at his home in Terre Haute Sept. 18, when the Yigo Democrats will welcome their first citizen home from the scene of his arduous labors and distinguished triumphs. I _ BUT A . REPUBLICAN TOOL. Exposure of the Workings of the A. P. A. In Terre Haute. That the*’A. P. A. is nothing more nor less than an organized aid to the Republican party has long been understood by those who have given close attention to j its workings. A year ago it was j “worked” in the interest of the Repub- j licans to defeat the Democratic city; ticket in Indianapolis. This year it | controlled the Republican county nom- j inations as its reward. The history of Indianapolis was repeated at Fort Wayne last spring mid the A. P. A. is running the Republican campaign in Allen county this fal. These things have demonstrated the i re&l purpose and object of the A. P. A. j organization to those who have cared to ! lock beneath the surface. But the most complete exposure that has been made wTas that; at Terre Haute last Sunday. The exposure was brought about by the action of an official who waited upon a firm, of lawyers who are zealons Catholics and furnished them with all the records. The sensation was sprang by the Republican secretary and treasurer of the local lodge, the son of a distinguished ! citizen of national renown, w ho, getting into a row with the other officers over the disposition of fumts, furnished the original records iff the lodge to Thomas W. Harper, who imd the list copied. There were something more than 400 names uu the Iht, and all but a few of them ate Republicans, aqme of them
well known business men. All bnt throe or four of the Republican county and township candidates are members, sustaining the frequent charge that the recent Republican convention was controlled by the American Protective association. The situation in Terre Haute is like that elsewhere in the state. The management of the organization is in tho hands of shrewd Republicans. They vote their ticket straight and induce all the Democratic members who are actuated by religious prejudice to scratch the Democratic ticket. The seheme has been worked very effectively in the past. But Democratic A. P. A.’s are beginning to understand that they are being used as cat’s paws to puUf Republican chestnuts out of the fire and are dropping out of the organization as rapidly os possible. No Democrat can afford to become or remain a member of the A. P. A. The Organization is unpatriotic and unamerican and is merely an adjunct of the Republican machine. DEATH Oi A. It. DAVIS, He Expires Wednesday Sight After Au Illness of Eire Weeks. A. B.
