"We, the republicans of the Eleventh Congressional District of Indiana, desire to congratulate the party, and the country on the auspicious beginning of the administration of President William H. Taft Upon his assumption of the presidency he at "once called congress in special session to redeem the pledge of the republican party for tariff revision, and after four months of labor and debate congress passed and the president signed a tariff bill, which, though not perfect in all its schedules, yet embodies the republican idea of the policy of protection, to which doctrine we affirm our steadfast adherence. "Under Its operation sufficient revenue la derived for the support of the government, and we are entering on an era of unprecedented prosperity, such as the country only enjoys under the administration of republican policies.'

CHIEF WILL RESIGH

Marlon, IndT, April 15. At the meeting of the Marlon police board tonight

it is expected that the resignation of

the present police superintendent,. J. Bert White, will be placed in the hands of the board. Mr. White has been police superintendent eight , years. A

mass meeting of citizens, held a month

ago, demanded his resignation. Since then the town has been rid of alleged

gamblers and a number of "blind tigers" have been found and the oper

ators arrested and sometimes fined.

' Hospital nurses, when assisting at a delicate operation, have their own way

of suppressing a cough or a sneeze.

Marshall Is Dodging the Responsibility Governor Does Not Want to Have Anything to Do With Placing Declaration on Liquor in the Democratic State Platform.

Palladlum Special) Indianapolis, April 15. Governor

Marshall Is seeking to avoid the responsibility of having anything to do with placing any declaration of the

liquor question in the democratic state

platform, in spite of the fact that strenuous efforts are being made to drag him Into the fight over the kind

of declaration which shall be made.

The governor says he has not been

able to make up his mind on just what the platform ought to say on this subject or whether anything at all should be said.

It has been learned that some of the

leading democrats of the state have

been Imploring the governor to ac

cept a place on the resolutions committee at the convention, but he has declined to serve. The plan was to put him on the committee as the representative of the Seventh district the Seventh being the district in which Indianapolis is located. This

would put the governor in rather an awkward position, in case he should decide to accept the place on the

committee, because he was elected

from Whitley county, and he has nev

er announced his renunciation of his

residence in the Twelfth district So

far as is known he is still a citizen of the Twelfth and not of the Seventh.

Anyway, the governor will not serve

as a member of the committee and

has let the democrats know it who

have called on him and asked him to serve. The fact is that he does no propose to be dragged Into the fight over the liquor question, which promises to be the big fight of the conven

tion. .

Since it has become known that he

will not serve on the resolutions committee Democrats representing all

shades of opinion on the liquor question have called on him and asked for

his views on the kind of a plank

which should be placed in the platform, but to all of them he has given

the same answer that he has no opinion to express on that subject, at least, not at this time.

Governor Marshall does not know

yet whether the subject of temper

ance legislation ought to be mention

ed in the platform. It is the belief of many who know him that he would a little rather nothing at all be said on that subject This would leave the members of the legislature free to take any action they might prefer and none of them would then be bound by any platform pledges. The governor

is not much for binding legislators to any certain policy on any such question. ' He regards the liquor question as a moral question rather than a political question. There is such a wide diversity of opinion among the democrats on the temperance proposition that it seems an Impossibility - for them to get ' together and agree on a plank for their platform that will satisfy all of them. Some of those who have called on the governor to seek his views have favored a new law that would repeal the present county option - law, and leave the Moore law in force to govern the saloon business. Others . think there should be an open declaration in the platform in favor of repealing the county option law and substituting a ward, township and city option law. Still others believe there should be, a ward, township and city law, but that it should be supplemented with provisions for strict regulation of the saloon business. Those who believe the latter way seem to be becoming more numerous, too. They take the ground that in addition to the local option feature of their proposed law there should be a provision - which would restrict the number of saloons according to the population of the city, ward or township. However, they say that the law should be so drawn as to not Interfere with saloons In existence at the time of its passage, but that whenever a saloon quits business for any reason no new license should be issued to a new saloon until the number in the district affected is reduced to the number allowed under the law, based on the population. - It is understood that this is the plan which the brewers will favor. If they go Into the fight at alL But the report is that the brewers prefer no declaration In the platform of any kind. They want as little said as possible, for they fear that agitation of the

hiqnor question again this year may

do them mucn harm. Leaders of the party on all sides

of the Houor fence agree that whatever Governor Marshall says on the subject will have great weight and that is why they are trying to drag him into the fight over the platform declaration. It is believed, however, that the governor, is just foxy enough to keep out of It The governor has already started work on his keynote speech which he will make at the state convention. He "took bis pen . in hand" yesterday afternoon for the first time, and it was

said last night that he had already outlined some of the things he will say. Persons who are close to the governor say ' his speech will - fairly sizzle, but no one knows exactly what he is going to say. . . There is a belief that he will not devote much of his time to his senatorial scheme. - About all he will do with this topic, so it is said, will be to reiterate his. former statements that the' state convention ought to nominate a man to be the democratic candidate for United States senator and give his reasons for taking this position, and then let it go at that. It will then be up to. the- convention to adopt It or leave It alone. But it is pointed out that If he does adopt this course and he finds that he must fight to carry his plan through he will depend on his able and husky , lieutenants on the floor of the convention) to do the work for him. Judging from what he has said before, he will in his speech, take the position that it Is the business of the people to rule themselves and" not their -place to be ruled by the interests. This has been the ruling thought In his speeches all along, and it Is hard to teach an old dog new tricks.

That he will denounce the present

tariff law, goes without saying. New interest has been added to the talk about Tom Taggart as a candi

date for United States senator by the fact that , Taggart has reserved four

ropms for his own use durins the con

vention. : The question Is what he would want "with this number of rooms at the hotel if he did not expect to carry on a red hot campaign of some

kind. No other candidate has reserv

ed as many rooms as Taggart Some

of the others have .reserved one or two rooms, and even three rooms, but no one else has taken four. If Tag

gart is not, a candidate for senator, and he has not said that he is not

he would not have use for this number of rooms as convention headquarters unless he was boosting some oth

er candidate or slate of candidates for nominations. It may be that he has engaged the rooms to use as a headquarters from which to manage any

campaign which the brewers may en

gage in, because he has for years been the head and front of the brewery political forces. But they say they are not taking any part in the campaign this year, and that they do not Intend to enter the game. It does not seem likely that Taggart would take a lot

of rooms for the purpose of boosting

any other candidates, so it Is figured

out that he is a candidate for senator and that he may make the t announcement at the time of the "convention. If the convention should happen to adopt the - governor's plan

and nominate a candidate for senator,

Taggart .probably wants to be on the ground ; ready . for the lightning to strike him. - . It is understood here .that Senator Steve" Fleming, of Fort Wayne, will come to the convention ready to indorse the governor's plan for the nomination of a senatorial candidate,

and that he will bring with him the boom of Edward G. Hoffman, of Fort

Wayne, to present to the convention

in case Governor Marshall's name is not presented. Fleming wuld be for

Marshall first and Hoffman second.

One gf the - possibilities that has been pointed out here Is that Taggart

may have such complete control of the

delegations to the state convention

that he will , be able to prevent the

convention from having any -'choice

about whether a senatorial candidate shall be nominated. It is said that

if he gains control of the committee

on rules and order of business he will be able to do this, for this committee is the one that decides on what business shall be done by the convention. This committee may decide that there

shall not be any nomination for sena

tor. If this committee maker such a

report and the report' Is adopted by the. convention Taggart would win his

point and the governor's plan would be defeated.

markable in' ring history, and the pic

tures are excellent in every respect In addition to the rounds of the fight the

training quarters of each man are shown, together with - the various

modes of training.
