PRESIDENT TUFT AVOIDS A FIGHT WITH BEVERIDGE

It Is Understood That Chief Executive Cancels Indiana Engagement So Not to Antagonize Senator. SUCH POLICY WOULD BE CRUDE POLITICS Temperance Statement of Indianapolis Paper Causes a Surprise Prohis Rap Antisaloon League. (Palladium Special) Indianapolis, April 7. The announcement that President Taft has canceled his date to come to Indianapolis on May G. is understood here to be a move in the interest of republican harmony in the coming state campaign. When the first word reached here yes terday afternoon to the effect that the president had decided to not visit this city, it was said that he was angered over the action of the republican state convention in ignoring in the platform the Payne-Aldrich tariff law, and be-i cause of the insurgent speech which ! Senator Beveridge delivered. However, later in the day it was stated that such was not the case. Nothing was heard at the White House so far as hasxbeen learned, that would bear out such a conclusion. On the other hand, it was said, the president made the statement that he did not believe it would be wise or good politics for him to come to this state at this time and make a speech in which he would be obliged to set forth his views of the tariff question, and especially of the Payne-Aldrich law, when his views are known to be so different from those held by Senator Beveridge. In a Wrong Light. The president said it would put him in the light of antagonizing a republican senator, and this was something he did not care to do. In fact, the president was said to be anxious to avoid anything that could be construed to mean that he was antagonizing a senator. Of course, if he were to come here and make a speech he would not be able to side-step the tariff issue, because that is the great question in the minds of the people of the state at this time! He might talk about everything else also, but he would have to say something about the tariff. It would not be possible for him to talk on the tairiff without disclosing the fact that he entertains views which are exactly opposite those held by Senator Beveridge. This might make an embarrassing situation, and the president, so the information from Washington says, recognized this sitnation and then made up his mind to remain away from Indiana. This announcement, taken in connection with the other announcement a few days ago that Senator Aldrich also had canceled his Indianapolis date, encourages republicans here to believe that there will not be any serious trouble in the party ranks in this state this year over the tariff proposition. If Taft and Aldrich have decided to not make any open fight on Beveridge, it is believed that their followers on the tariff question in this state, will also not make any fight, but that all will fall into line and cast their vote so as to return Senator Beveridge to the Senate, even if they do not get out and do a lot of hard work in his behalf. A Surprise Sprung. Surprise was manifested here- yesterday, when one of the leading Indianapolis newspapers, a republican paper, printed an editorial on the republican state platform, in which it said that "to ignore the local option question was a cowardly thing to do," and the prohibitionists who are holding their New Murray Theatre APPROVED VAUDEVILLE WEEK OF APRIL 4TH.

state convention in the same hall in which the republican state convention was held, have had this statement painted on a big banner which stretches across the stage. The prohibition convention opened yesterday, and in all of the speeches thus far, have taken a shot at the failure of the

republicans to declare-in support of the local option law. They profess to believe that this is a weak spot in the republican line up for the campaign. Felix T. McWnirter, of this city, who was a candidate for Governor some years ago on the Prohibition ticket, and who is the prohibition can didate for United States senator, made a speech yesterday in which he denounced the anti-saloon league as the enemy of prohibition. He said the anti-saloon league was composed of a few salaried men who came In and made themselves a self-constituted league with no members except themselves. He asked the audience if anyone could name a single member of the anti-saloon league in his county and no one .answered. He said that the league stands in the way of the prohibitionists in their fight to rid the country of saloons. . The turnip 13 supposed to be a native of Asia and Europe. It has been cultivated for centuries. The wild Indian turnip is said to be remotely kin to the edible turnip. It is the size of a walnut and first tasted is sweetish, but in a moment the taster's tongue feels as though it were pricked by a hundred hot needles, and he feels like expectorating for . hours after. It is the country boy's favorite medium for a joke on the visiting town boy. The members of the Women's Christian Temperance Union in Wisconsin are receiving congratulations from almost every country on the globe because of their success in getting the faculty and students of the state uni versity to sign an agreement whereby they pledged themselves to stop treat ing to intoxicant liquors. There are said to have been nearly four thousand signatures. . Nothing I can say about my new line of Spring Goods is half as convincing as what the line says for itself, and also the patronage that has been shown me this season. All the latest weaves, patterns and cuts are combined to convince you. $18 Upward Roy W. DENNIS 8 N. 10th

Ar nold, an irrigation farmer In Stevens county, Washington, hauled to the United States district court here on complaint of D..C. Corbin, millionaire railroad builder and beet sugar manufacturer of Spokane, charged with stealing water from Loon lake to the extent of lowering its surface fully 30 inches. Arnold is charged with opening the gates and wasting the water. He and his wife have been cited to appear before Judge Edward Wnitson in Spokane to show why they should not be fined for contempt of court In ignoring its orders. The lake has its chief in Sheep creek, and residents in the district say there will be a water famine if the main body is lowered much more. Springdale, a thriving town, secures its water supply from that source, and several irrigation companies have laid plans to draw water from the lake, but have been restrained so far by orders of the county and district courts.
