PARTY CHIEFS TO DECIDE Oil DATE

Republican State Committee to Consider the Time of Convention. MEETING HELD TOMORROW

WHETHER THE CONVENTION WILL LAST ONE DAY OR TWO DAY8 WILL BE ANOTHER QUESTION DECIDED ON.

(Palladium Special) Indianapolis, Feb. 28. When, the republican state committee meets in this city tomorrow it -will, as stated before in these dispatches take up the question of fixing a time for holding the state convention and the rules which shall govern the convention. One of the questions to be determined will be -whether the convention shall occupy, one day or two days. Heretofore it has been the rule to occupy two or more days, but there is a strong feeling among many of the republicans that this year the business should all be transacted and all nominations be made in one day. The rule heretofore has been that the convention would organize on the first day. The temporary chairman would be appointed and he would make a speech which was regarded as the keynote speech of the campaign. He would set forth the arguments which the party was to use in presenting the issues to the people. Then some of the other leaders also would make speeches. Then committees were appointed.

Much Done in Advance. On the night of the first day of the convention the resolutions committee, better known as the platform committee, has always met and framed up the platform to be presented to the convention. Of course, much of this work is done in advance, for the leaders of the party always come to the convention with practically a full draft of the platform in their pockets. This is true of all parties. The platform is always made in advance and the convention merely ratifies it. Anyway, the resolutions committee meets and decides on the platform. On the morning of the second day the committee makes its report and the platform is adopted. Then the nominations follow, and these generally are finished by night. It is argued by those who favor a one day session that the speechmaking should be cut out this year. Things are in a delicate condition, in the party, and it is feared by some that if too much speechmaking is allowed there will be things said that will not do any good. If one man is allowed to speak the bars will have to be thrown down to all, and just at this time, it is pointed out, this would not be wise. Of course, a keynote speech would be made. This could not well be dispensed with, but all others could. One Da Convention. In view of all of these conditions it would not be surprising to see the committee decide on a one day convention. When the committee meets tomorrow it is said it will find itself starting in the campaign with an empty treasury. It is said that there is not a cent in the coffers of the committee. Hut all bills for former campaigns are paid and the committee, therefore, will start even. State Chairman Lee will have a fine opportunity to show his ability as a "fat fryer" during this campaign, and some of the politicians are predicting that he will have a hard time gathering in the sinews of, war. But the party workers and the men who have contributed heretofore to the campaign funds are the kind of republicans that stick to their party, and there is every reason to believe that they will come across with their contributions this year the fiame as usual. Money for Democrats. The democrats this year will likely have plenty of money with which to conduct their campaign. It is believed here that the brewers and the liquor interests will contribute heavily to the democratis campaign fund. It would be a strange campaign, indeed, with no brewery money in it and since the brewers cannot expect or hope for any favors from the republicans at the next session of the legislature it is only reasonable to expect that they will dump their money into the fund of the opposition. Unless the AntiSaloon league is able to bring about the selection of temperance democrats in democratic legislative districts as candidates for the legislature the brewers would, in case of democratic control of the coming legislature, be able to have their own way on temperance legislation. They understand this situation, and this is why E. S. Shuniaker, state superintendent of the Anti-Saloon league, has made the statement that the league will do everything in its power to bring about the nomination of temperance men by both parties in all districts as candidates for the legislature. Helped by Brewers. With the financial help of the brewers the democrats ought to be able to scrape together a healthy campaign fund, and in this respect they will have an advantage over the republicans. No new candidates for state nominations on either ticket have made their appearance recently, and it Is believed that none will be announced until after the details for the conventions have been perfected. The democrats seem to be holding back to force the republicans to hold their convention first, so as to make them declare themselves on the various issues. A

good many republicans believe the republicans should do the same thing, and force the democrats to show their hand on the issues before anything else is done. In fact, it looks a little

like both sides were sparring for an opening and that each is waiting for the other to make the first move. Under these circumstances the coming campaign ought to be a red hot one.
