COWING TO BE ATTACKED.

Muncie, Ind., March 12. It Is believed the organized liquor dealers of Muncie are planning to enter actively Into the county- campaign this year, and to support those candidates of ither party that seem most favorable to the liquor interests. There is no doubt the saloon crowd, elated by its partial victory at the republican primary election in February, will continue In politics. It is certain that the aloon men will make no fight against the candidacies of Harry Long, republican nominee for prosecuting attorney, and J. Monroe Fitch, republican nominee for state representative, and it is doubtful if they will fight David A. Lambert, nominee for state senator, although they favored, in generaf, Mr. Lambert's opponent for the nomination. Will Try to Defeat Cowing. Upt the liquor dealers "have it in" for Lewis G. Cowing, republican nominee for representative, who, on the ve of election, defied the saloon crowd to do its worst and who published a statement showing that a committee of saloon keepers and brewers' agents had attempted to exact a pledge from him to be favorable to legislation favoring the liquor interests. However, Mr. Cowing and his friends are not worrying about this opposition, for in the face of it Mr. Cowing led all competitors for the nomination. Sickening headaches, indigestion, constipation.
