THE GOVERNOR IN CHOSinS MAN Within Short Time After Dem ocratic Member of State Election Board Named there Was Split-up. HAVE A FALLING OUT OVER ELECTING CLERK R. C. Houston. President of the Prison Board, Denies Report He Is a Candidate to Succeed J. Reed. " (Palladium Special Indianapolis,' Sept 9. Within a short time after M. M. Batchelder had been placed upon the board of elec tion commissioners Thursday, the two democratic members. Governor Mar shall and Mr. Batchelder found them selves voting against each other. It was through the vote of Charles Roemler, the republican member, Governor Marshall was able to elect Everett W. McGinnls as chief clerk of the commission. When the vote was called Batcheld er declared he would not vote for Mc Ginnls and persisted in casting his ballot in favor of another man whose application had been filed at the gov ernor's office. It is not known wheth er Batchelder was acting under in structions from the democratic state committee In withholding his support from McGinnis. ' It Was a Surprise. It was a surprise to him when Charles Roemler, the republican member, came to the aid of the governor and elected the man whom Governor Marshall considered best fitted. McGinnls Is a member of the local Typographical Union and president of the Central Labor Unkm. A. E. Butler, clerk of the state bureau of printing, who was elected assistant clerk, is a republican. Governor Marshall's plan is to award the men a fair amount for their services after the work is done. The regular salaries granted are $900 for clerk and $300 for assistant clerk. It is asserted by the republican state committee that in former years when the republicans controlled the election board the work of that body was half done at this period before election. The delays encountered may call for almost daily meetings of the board until the work is under headway. Denial of Houston. . R. C. Houston, president of the In diana prison board of control, has entered a vigorous denial of being a candidate for warden of the prison to succeed the late James . Reid. Mr. Houston Is a newspaper man of Frankfort and an appointee of Governor Marshall. Political Talk Turns. Political talk of republican pros pects lnlndianah as taken quite a turn In tone among the men, who last spring, declared Senator Beverldge and the progressive movement would split the party and end Its hopes In defeat. Since the Insurgent victories In Wisconsin, Vermont, New Hamp shire and Georgia, most of those who clung to this small coterie of stand patters have had their eyes opened to the real forces at work in politics. A good many men who formerly looked upon the professional politician as the whole thing In the campaign have awakened to the fact, that the people and not the politicians are playing the game this time. These few to whom the name of Beverldge was so bitter are talking this week frankly and openly in the firm conviction that the senator is the salvation of the party in Indiana. They can look back with a good deal of pride now to Indiana being the first state to go on record with a progressive ' platform In its convention of April 3. A few professional politicians who have been pouting about Beverldge, while perhaps slightly defective In vision through prejudice, are nevertheless not unmindful of the sentiment which has come to the leaders from the people through the sixty day polL From now on It looks like a rush and a tumble to get on the Beverldge progressive republican train , which , is getting unheadway with a rush. : - HE JQIIS HIS MATE Within two weeks of the death of his wife.

The bridge is a necessity and the South Slders are determined it shall be built. By g special bridge tax levy a sum of about $40,000 has been raised for the purpose of building a south side bridge.. Some of the county officials claim that a bridge would be Impractical south of Main because the gorge Is too wide. They say a . structure would cost over $60,000, but President Bllckwedel says It would not cost that much. Ho believes that the $40,000 on hand now would bo sufficient to start with and that enough - money to pay for It could be raised btfore the bridge was completed.' - Resolutions were adopted against the annexation of Beallriew, every member voting in favor of them. The southsiders claim that both the city and association would be harmed by the extension, the tax levy being tocreased for the association and additional expenses pot onto the city.

Only a few: people were at the Pennsylvania station when the train having the ex-president on board arrived."

' However, if it ' had been generally known that Mr. Roosevelt was to have been In Richmond .this morning it Is probable that he would not have received such consideration because, undoubtedly, there would have a large and demonstrative crowd at the station. - OPEd AIR SEOOS American News Service.) : Montreal. .
