Taft Will Probe the Situation in Indiana He Will Call Large Number of Republican Leaders to Washington in Next Few WeeksLocal Option Bothers the Democrats.

(Palladium Special) Indianapolis, Ind. April 12. Edwin M. Lee, chairman of the republican state committee, says the report that he was in Washington last week, fol lowing the republican state convention is not true. He left the city immedi ately after the convention, and gossips had it that he had gone to Washington to talk over the ndiana political situation with some of the Hoosier republicans who are in the nation's caital. But .since Mr. Lee's return yesterday it is given out at the state headquarters that he did not go to Washington at all but that he was in West Virginia on a business trip which had nothing whatever to do with politics. When it became known that Chairman. Lee had left the city last week and that he had started east the gos sips were not long in reaching the con elusion that he was headed for Washington, the hotbed of, all things polit ical. They could see. a good reason why he might be going there, after the i convention, but evidently they were all mistaken. i Anxious About Indiana. It is understood here that President Taft will call a large number of Indiana republican leaders -to Washington within the next few weeks for the purpose of having them tell him just what the political situation is in this state. According to reports two or three invitations have been sent out already and more are to follow. Dispatches from Washington, indicate that the president may come into Indiana later in the season, probably in June, but be will not come in May, as he had intended. It is said that he wishes to become thoroughly informed on the lay of the land in Indiana before he comes here, if he comes at all. and that it is for this reason that he will call in numerous Indiana republicans to talk the matter over and see what they can tell him about the situation. ' Things are rather quiet about the republican state headquarters just now and they will remain so for some time. There ia no reason for activity just now. ' The state convention is over, the organization of the party for the coming campaign has been made and every arrangement has been completed for a stirring campaign when it starts, about the first of September. It is said to be the intention to keep up the fight from now until election day, but up until the first of September the campaign will be confined almost en tirely to organization work. From that time forward, however, the eagle will scream and red fire will light up the hilltops. It will be a noisy and lively campaign on both sides. Local Option Question. The democrats are now wrestling with a question that gave the republicans many sleepless nights until they shut their eyes and ignored It entirely. The democratic state conven tion will be held in this city on April 27 and 28, and the big question among them now is what to do with the local option question. This question has been a bugaboo for the democrats ever since it was injected into Indiana politics, and this year taey are as badly worried over it as ever.' A large portion of the party wants the state convention to come out squarely and flat footed and declare in favor of the repeal of the county option law without any reservation .whatever. They represent the extreme liquor element of the party, and it is not at all likely that the convention will pay any attention to them. The democratic leaders realize that to do such a thing would spell ruin for their party, for there are few voters in the state who would be willing to vote the local option law off the statute books without substituting some other law sysem that would be equally satisfactory. - Favor Present Laws. There is another element in the party, and i is no inconsiderable element, that believes the present laws should remain unchanged. This class is. the temperance element of the party. The vote at local option elections shows that democratic counties as well as republican counties have voted themselves dry, so that neither party can be said to have a monopoly on the temperance vote or temperance sentiment in Indiana. . It was the temperance minority in the democratic party during the last session of the legislature that prevented the repeal of the county option law and the passage of the Proctor-Tomlinson bill- There were about half a dozen democratic members of the house who stood unalterably opposed to the repeal of the option law, and by voting with the dry republicans they were able to prevent the repeal. It Is practically certain that there will besome dry democrats in the next house also, and that they will be as firmly set In their opposition to the repeal of the law as were the ones in the session of last year. Want Law Wiped Out Then there is another element in the democratic line-up that is in favor of wiping out the county option law and passing a new law that will give local option to townships and wards, with a lot of restrictions and regulations which they believe will be better than the provisions of the present law. With all of these conflicting views and ideas existing among the democrats it is easy to see that they are go-

that will satisfy everybody. It Is also well known that Governor Marshal! and many others among the party leaders In the state are in favor of not saying a word in the platform on the temperance subject. They believe the question is one that does not belong in party politics and , that it should be left to the legislature to do with as it sees fit after it has been elected. Strenuous efforts are to be made by the supporters of the different ideas and theories to get a plank in the platform that will be in line with their views. It is equally certain that each side will object to the idea of the others and that there will be a merry scrap before anything will be accom plished in the way of a platform decla ration on the local option proposition. If the democrats should happen to win at next state election and control the legislature there is not the slightest .uestlon but that they will do some thing to the local option law. i ms seems to be an accepted fact. They declared for ward and township option last campaign, and they cannot be expected to turn around and go the other way now, so some of them say. It is only a question of what they will do to the law Instead of a question of whether they will do anything. Congressmen to Come. Most of the democratic congressmen from Indiana are expected to come here to attend the state convention. In fact, so far as is known now, only one will be absent, and he is Congressman Cllne, of the Twelfth district. It is said that he will remain in Washington. He was in Indiana last week and it is understood that he feels that he should not be away from Washington so much of the time. Word from Washington says that the Congressmen also are worried over the question of what to do with local option in the

Household Linen for the Bride

While it is the duty of the bridegroom to provide all articles of furniture for his home, it is customary for the bride to give all necessary house linen. And so tablecloths, napkins, towels, etc., are usually the gifts of the bride's mother. Now, while the selection of these linens may seem easy to the uninitiated or to a woman who has plenty of money to spend, the actual work of purchasing an entire outfit for, say$oO, is a difficult task. When buying such : linens I would suggest to the inexperienced that she go to reliable stores, not necessarily high-priced ones," - but places where moderate sums are charged. r.-.t v. Suppose one can spend half a hundred dollars, the amount might be apportioned thus: One best tablecloth, $4.30. Eight yards of damask at $1 a yard will make four tablecloths. Different designs may be chosen for each cloth. " - As the damask at this price is seventy-one Inches wide, the cloths will be about square after being hemmed. One dozen nice table napkins, measuring 22x22, may be bought for $3, and $1.50 wilj purchase a second dozen, 20x20 for common use. These prices are for pure thread linen. Bedroom towels : could take next place on the list Of these two dozen will be sufficient. One dozen may cost $.1. - Six of these may be hemstitched huckaback, with or without damask border. Both measure about 20x38 inches. The other six could be damask with knotted fringes bordered in white, red or blue. The size, 20x 42. Twelve smaller plain hemmed huckaback towels will cost $1.50, and six bath towels, with or without borders, ready for use. measuring 21x42, may be bought for the same amount There will probably be two b-ds, so three pairs of sheets for each should be bought A dozen pillow slips will be needed. For the larger bed the sheets will cost about 65 cenvs each (the lowestt. sheets for the smaller bed a little less. Sven " dollars should purchase them all. Six pillow slips can be bought for 00 cents and six smaller ones for 75 cents. One pair of all-wool blankets, warp and filling, pink or blue borders, OOx ? inches and weighing four pounds costs $3 a pair, and fine white cotton warp, with mixed wiil filling, blue or pink borders, 00x80 inches is .'. A larger size, 70x80 Inches, is $3.75 a pair. - A Marcelles bedspread nicely hemmed and finished, double bed size, may be bought for $2.75. while a spread for a single bed will cost only $1.50. To furnish the kitchen : drawer six dish towels at 124 cents should be provided, also the same number of glass elothB. These cost 12Vj cents a yard. Ready hemmed the glass elothB are 14 cents each. Three chamoisine dusters at lO cents each should be purchased, also two dish cloths at 6 cents each. Paint cloths and scrub cloths cost 3 cents; one of each kind is enough. How the remainder of the money shall be spent will depend upon personal' needs. There is the suggestion for. buying fancy linens, such as sideboard cloths, doilies, bureau scarfs and pillow shams. WtntsmO.:

platform. They are divided on the

subject, so it is said, but most of them are of the opinion that the question f should be ignored in the platform and; that no mention should be made of it at all. It is pointed out that this course would leave it open to the legis-1 la tu re to do what it pleased with the local option law next winter. Word comes from Washington, too. that the democratic congressmen from : Indiana are divided on the subject of Governor Marshall's plan for the nomination of a United States senator by the state convention. It is said that only one member of the delegation is in favor of the plan, and that is Congressman Moss, of the Fifth district All the others are Opposed to It, so it is said. Just what effect this may have on the action of the convention is not known, but the congressmen are generally men of Influence in their conventions, and if'they undertake to knock the governor's plan, it will probably get some hard raps. They Are Not Talking. The democratic congressmen are not saying anything on that subject for publication, but it is said that- most of them feel that it , was unfortunate that Governor Marshall should bring that issue into the fight at this time. That I about as far as any of them go in discussing it. The sub-committee of the democratic state committee, consisting of Peter Foley, of the Fifth district Charles Murphy of the Tenth, and Peter Kruyer of the Thirteenth, will meet in this city tomorrow to complete the details of the arrangements for the democratic state convention. It Is said to be the plan now to have Governor Marshall for temporary chairman, in order that he may make the keynote speech, and that Senator Shively will be the permanent chairman. However, there has been no definite announcement of the arrangenient. A second choice could be a comfort able, supposing the outfit were to be provided for cold weather, and a third an asbestos mat for the dining room table. The last named, however, costs $5, round or square, in sizes 48x54 Inches. All linen must be marked with the bride's maiden name or initials. .
