- " - " wiin m give o 11 the story. He says that the Idea of the Tagge 1 "crowd In bringing about the establu y aent of a press bureau Is to be it Governor Harmon, of Ohio, for t e -democratic presidential . nomina'.! a nd to kill off whatever chance Cf f 'ernor Marshall may have to land t e tfomination for himself. He says th t this will begin to crop out 'within a short time, and that then It wll. : 0 aeen that Tom Taggart la still tie same old wily politician that he has always been and that ho will make a desperate effort to lead Indiana ino
such a strong following in the
1 ate that any" effort to throw the Ue to Harmon or any other candied te will cause a party rumpus. The vernor'a friends would not stand for
t5!l for a minute.
In every presidential campaign Tagrt is the Indiana head of a movee ent for the nomination of some cand late. The boom which Taggart rep-
rats in each campaign originates in v. York, as did the boom for Parker : -ears ago. Taggart was the head ' front of that boom in Indiana, as vell remembered. fhe Democrat who was talking yes-
rday, said it was certain, from all
pearances, that the same old game
being worked this year, and that tie by little It, will became apparent it the Democratic preta bureau la lie used for that purpose, and that
t a Democrat state committee and ths I emocratlc editors of Indiana will foot t ie bills. It is learned that the press bureau matter was not the only one that
caased the members of the Democratic
the Harmon column when the tin e! state committee to mop their persplr-
comes 10 mane n nomination for president two years hence. This Interesting situation has bee 3 liscussod to some extent but it wjh not until yesterday that anyone could be found who would say that such a Jlan was being worked out by the Ta,Tfait crowd. "It is a fight between Governor Marshall and Tom Taggart for the control of the party organization in the tate," said thla democrat. '"This Is
the situation and both sides know It. Taggart does not propose that Governor Marshall shall run the party, and the governor la apparently equally determined that Taggnrt shall not continue to run things. And there you re. You will remember that a few week ago Taggart went to Washington and contracted with a pres3 bureau there to send political letters to nil of the democratic papers In the tate. The letters came apd Taggart Is said to have pnld for them out of
lug brows at yesterday's meeting. It was given out before the meeting that there was nothing of special importance to come before the meeting, exCt pt the press bureau matter, but when the members got together they found another question that they scartely knew what to do with. It was learned after the meeting that they talked alwut the temperance question, and
jthat it puzzled them. It was learned.
too, that they called Samuel M. Ralston on the green carpet and asked him to explain why the Boone county Dem ocratlc convention adopted- a resolution declaring against the repeal of the county option law, when the Democratic state convention declared In Its platform for the repeal of the law. This unprecedented piece of Insurgency on tie part of the Boone county Democrats has puzzled the old timers moro than any other one thing that has happened thus far in the campaign, for It was a direct break-away from the
in favor of a tariff commission, for a protective tariff baaed on the difference
in the cost of production by American labor and by foreign labor, and indorsed Senator Beveridge in strong terms. There was some stand pat talk and a move was made to force the resolutions committee to declare in direct terms for the Payne-Aldrich tariff law, but this was thought to be Inadvisable and It was not done. It was one of the most enthusiastic and largely attended congressional conventions ever held in the Fifth district, and the Republicans feel that they can carry the district this year.
At Local Theaters
Ms own pocket. - The editors did not! policy laid down in the state platform.
know how It was being done, but they used the stuff. Just the same. Then Taggnrt came along with a proposition
tnat tne state committee arrange to
establish a press bureau of Its own in this state. A sub-committee was ap
pointed 10 loon alter it. This com
mittee was composed of Samuel M. llalston, of Lebanon. Edward Hoffman
of Fort Wayne and George Beebee, of
Anderson.
The democrat went on with his de
tail of how the committee met and discussed the press bureau scheme
and how to carry It on and pay for
It. Then he said: "Governor Marshall and his friends were opposed to the plan, as I am told, and If they could have had their way It would not have been carried out. They saw where It would lead to. The governor's friends declared that the press bureau would become a Taggart Institution and that It wai not at all likely that Governor Marshall or his administration would get much recognition out of it. But the real secret back of the whole business is that it Is a part of a scheme to nominate Governor Harmon of Ohio for president. Yoa will see It yourself before long." It is said that there was considerable opposition In the state committee to the plan for starting a press bureau, but that the opposition was confined to a very few members. The state committee is so completely dom
inated by Taggart that the plan went
through. It is known that some of
the most Influential democratic edl
tors In the state did not favor the plan because they feared that it would not be much more than a Taggart annex. Yesterday before the final action by the committee was taken Edward G. Hoffman, of Fort Wayne, committeeman from the Twelfth district and a member of the sub-committee to estab
lish the press bureau, had a long con
ference with Governor Marshall.
Wnlle It Is not given out that they
discussed the opposition to the plan, It is known that Hoffman personally was not In favor of It because he Is
one of the strong friends of Governor
Marshall. But Hoffman was not In
position to head it oft and had to see
It go through.
Now, If the press bureau finally
should happen to show up as a Tag
gart scheme to help nominate Har
mon It will cause a lot of hair pulling In the party. As the matter now stands the Indiana democracy Is for Marshall for president. And Marshall
Ralston, so It is said, told the committee that neither he nor anyone else
could have prevented the adoption of the dry resolution In the Boone county
convention. "It was the sentiment of the Democrats of the county," he is quoted as saying, "and nothing could have prevented it in the face of such sentiment." It is understood that Ralston's explanation did not satisfy the members of the committee, although it was believed that he had sized up the situation correctly. It is said that the Democrats are confronted with a similar situation in numerous other counties in the state, where the same sentiment exists, and that it is causing them a good deal of worry. In arranging for the campaign press bureau the committee selected Guernsey Van Riper, an Indianapolis newspaper man, as its manager, and then
appointed an advisory committee con
sisting of State Chairman Stokes Jackson, Sam Ralston, Edward G. Hoffman and George Beebee to advise with Van-
Riper as to the manner of conducting the bureau. i The Republican congressional convention in the Fifth district, held at Martinsville, yesterday, nominated Frank Tllley, of Vigo county, for Congressman. It also adopted resolutions In which praise was given to President Taft and his administration, declared 4
A Ventriloquist's Tale. In an interview with Miss Nan
Akers, who is playing this week at the Murray in the sketch, "On the B. and O.," she says: "Long before I ever attended a theater or knew anything about the stage I had a little neigh bor, Nattie Gill, who could give a wonderful imitation of a phonograph. For miles around when there were friends to be entertained Nattie was called upon. "Cne evening we were giving a birthday party at our home, Nattie as usual was expected to contribute his share to the entertainment, but when the time came for his part he was not to be found; he had eaten too much ice cream and had been put to bed. That evening I surprised my friends while attempting to give them some idea of Nat's cleverness. I too, gav. a phonograph imitation, but later when I began to throw my voice, the fun began. "One day while seated on the porch reading, I saw an old colpred man coming down the street carrying a large turtle. Without raising my eyes from the book I sent my voice in the direction of the turtle saying 'Put me down! Put me downT The darky almost turned white and as he let the turtle fall to the ground and stood looking at it the same voice said, 'Pick me up; pick me up!' This was too much for Rastus. I raised my eyes just in time to see the tails of his Prince Albert turn the corner. "At another time our cook, who had only been with us a week, was baking bread. After she had placed the loaves in the oven, turned to attend to other duties, (I was in the yard watching her through an open window at about five feet from the range) when I sent my voice softly yet distinctly to the oven with the words, 'Take us out or we will burn.' This was repeated a second and a third time when to my astonishment the cook started for the range and as she started to open the oven door, the words came louder, 'Take us out or we'll burn.' Well, cook weighed about two hundred and fifty pounds, and when she hit the floor with that unbaked bread in her lap there was such a mix-up I became frightened and ran away. When father came home that night and was told what had happened, I like little Nat, found myself in bed at an early hour. I too, had had more than my share of something, but it wasn't ice cream."

EUD SUMMER WORK
Final Meeting of Associated Charities Board, Until Fail, Was Held.
SMALL SUM IN TREASURY
Work for the summer was discontinued yesterday by the Associated Charities, when the board met and considered the monthly reports and reviewed the work done during "the past eight or ten months. The treasury of the organization showed a balance of $10O and a few unpaid subscriptions which, when paid, will give the association a good working capital for the first few weeks next fall. Excellent work was done during the year In the judgment of the officials. Assistance of all kinds was given to the poor. The greater number were given such supplies as fuel, groceries
and clothing. Others were provided
with positions.
That the work may be carried on In
an effective manner next fall and winter, a more practical means of raising money will be devised. Although the method of personal pledges is not entirely satisfactory, it Is probable that this course will be followed in replen
ishing the treasury. About $2,000 an
nually is the amount which is spent by the association. Mrs. Elizabeth Candler, the city missionary, will continue her work during the summer in all cases where it is necessary.
