ATTORNEY GENERAL KNOK. Who Maintains a Proper Reserve In Pending Trust Investigations. Ei-t;mate of the Ticket Nominated at Indianapolis. Cor'gessman Ja'uc.? E Watson, who was chairman cf the Republican state convention just closed, gave out the following as his estimate of the ticket nominated: ''The ticket i- one of the best, cleanest and ablest ever nominated by the Republican party in this state. Too much cannot be said in praise of Mr Hanly. He is a self made man in all that the wor t implies. He has ris- , from the ra ncz by virtue of bin ndnstry and st'.r!in qualities. His early struggles vera patheli.', and the fact . that he was able to overcomf obstacles so' numerous and great and : 'Heve success in the world speaks voJumes for tho snnlmg qualities si the rr.-n and hi manhood. i,There are no flaws in the armoi of any man whos.s name appears on he ti V i , and th .re will be no chance for personalities to ply any part in the approaching campaign. There will be no guerrilla warfare, but the battle Avill be waged in the open, and conducted on "he high plateau of principle. With the ticket standing upon such a platform thee can be no question about the result in November, ar.d especially when ve take into consideration the utter- helplessness of the Deomcracy in both state and Nation.''
