Thou Shalt Not Steal
Today in Indiana, and for the nest few days before, you go to the polls, keep that phrase before you. Ask yourself who is stealing from the American people and how it is done. The old cry of "turn the rascals out" has failed. Men have come face to face with the proposition that one party as a party is pretty much like any other party as a party. And you have only to go back in your minds and look into the evidence. ... As long as the machine which binds crooked men together for crookedpurposes holds sway in both parties and an understanding exists between them, so long we shall believe that party government is a farce. To older men who knew the times of Morton and Hendricks in Indiana when party was party the party stood for something.. Not a breath of a great scandal was breathed about the erection of the state house in Indiana. Why? Why was there no story such as has disgraced almost every state like Pennsylvania? It is because the bi-partisan machine had not yet been formed in Indiana. A Republican was still a Republican and a Democrat a Democrat they watched each other. They did not meet those organization men the heads of the organizations the bosses and make a "frame-up" trade here trade there so that the machine men could have their way and honest men be defeated. This is done today in Indiana.
Governor Marshall represents the leadership of the freeborn Democrats in this state. He had to fight Taggart to be nominated. He has in most cases fought Taggart since. This is a task. We admire Marshall to the extent that he has fought the Taggart machine for we admire him to the extent he has fought dishonesty. We admire him to the extent that he has not compromised with the Taggart machine and only to that extent. In spite of the fact that the election of the Democratic ticket means a redlstricting of the state of Indiana which will be redistricted for Tom Taggart's own purposes we hear men talk about the success of the Democratic party when it means Taggart's success.
Who was it who appeared before the credentials committee in Indianapolis at the time of Marshall's very nomination and had the free Democratic1 delegation of Indianapolis thrown out of the convention? Who was it who was the tool in having Taggart's slate put through? The "attorney" who represented the Taggart forces was John Kern. We are told that Mr. Kern is not a Taggart man his record has been otherwise. Kern is a machine man of machine men. This year represents the struggle of the state of Indiana in throwing off the bi-partisan machine, in throwing out the machines of both parties.
Take the city of Indianapolis. It is common scandal a scandal that has become shopworn that Marion county politics is corrupt, that elections are manhandled and that whichever way the election goes, it is the bosses who always win. We have Joe Keating on the one hand and Tom Taggart on the other apparently but in reality Tom Taggart and Joe Kealing are on the same side. They will be found with an intangible understanding which' becomes tangible when the returns come in. . If Tom Taggart wins, do the people of this state have to be told that the bi-partisan machine the old gang wins in Indiana?
Why is it that the old organization men higher up in the Republican party, the men "who have always done things in Indiana," are not busy working for Beveridge? Why is it that they are hanging back and giving aid and comfort to the enemy does that look like a party fight? No. It is a bi-partisan fight against the people and the man who has stood by them. It Is the same fight that has always been put up against Beveridge. The politicians say that Beveridge has no "organization" and he has not, the politicians say that Beveridge has no "money" and he has not. They say the people will not back him up. Those are the men who think that people must be bossed and given a piece of money before they will vote for him. They say that because those are the methods of the machinethose are the methods of Taggart and they say Taggart will win. t , We do not know whether or not Beveridge will win against the greatest odds that have been against him ever since the days when he first began his career. The Organization never intended that Albert J. Beveridge should be senator in Indiana. Any man who, remembers that far back remembers the general surprise nay confusion, when the young man, then only thirty-six, beat the ''old guard" of the Republican party the bosses the organization. They feared him then and with reason. They remember that when he first went to the senate the senators who composed the "millionaires' club" of that day walked out when he made his first speech. They tried to freeze him out;. to muzzle him and to cover him with contempt.' Does anyone suppose that they would have done that If he had been 'bne of the old guard"? Nay he would have been feted. lie would have been banqueted. Beveridge has had to fight for his lie, in' his own party against the organ!aation and he has fought. - 1 . ' Ttras mS" novel experience he who led the fight against the meat trust in Roosevelt's day. He was one of the small group of men that Roosevelt could count on to fight his battles in the senate it was such stuff that lafer showed up when the tariff fight came on. - No "boss" in Indiana could send him a hurried telegram to sidetrack his vote. He had but one obligation to the people of Indiana.
Speeches are Interesting and no doubt important. Platforms end political beliefs are likewise important But before all else comes honesty the fight against stealing. Before all else comes the question as to whether the people of Indiana are going to allow this state to be stolen for the benefit of the bi-partisan machine masquerading at, this present moment under the name of Democracy. A vote for the legislative ticket of the Democratic party means a vote for the bi-partisan machine Taggart. It is the same fight everywhere. In California against the railroads, against Bossism in New York, where Roosevelt is fighting Murphy Garfield against the bosses and the machine in Ohio Beveridge against the bosses of both parties In Indiana. Why are these forces lined up against him? Do you suppose if he had sold you out that there would have been war against him? He would have been "safe and sane." The same fight! Here Is Henry's letter to Beveridge: "The campaign you are making is not confined to Indiana. You are leading in a great -nation-wide battle which has equal significance in every section of the country. "The awakened citizenship of all America hasa full knowledge of the scope of your work in the United States senate in 'behalf of the people. We all know how steadily and fearlessly you fought for the meat inspection law, how "patiently you labored to emancipate the child from a toil that was fast deteriorating the race and how bravely you stood in the forefront of the battle to thwart the greedy interests in the mighty struggle over tariff revision. "Every good citizen, no matter wheher be lives in CaHfornio, Indiana, Maine or Florida or whatever his party alignment may have been is equally interested in your re-election to the offlce you have so highly honored. Here In California Johnson for governor and Kent for congress are fighting the same, enemies you are so valiantly facing there. As in your state it is not a question of partnership. It is the people against privilege. , .. "It is only duty to my own state in the great crisis that keeps me from going to Indiana and assisting you in any way I could. I feel sure, however, that the cause for which you stand will triumph and California with all other progressive states will rejoice to know that your great services to the American people have been appreciated. ' "FRANCIS J. JEIENEY.1 That's the man who unearthed ad fought the graft la San Francisco; that Is the man that fought the graft in the great Western timber steal; that is the man that the bi-partisan machine tried to kill in the court room when the trial of a man higher up was going on. That is the man who stood behind Glavis In fighting the Alaska-robbery. . Heney knows.
What do you suppose he would do la Indiana. He Is not a party man the organizations of both parties would knife him just as readily as they sent a man to shoot him. . TOON SHALT NOT STEAL! - - - What are you going to stand for? . ,, - or. .f - s - :' . i a
Because Beveridge would not stand for steals In the national government we are told that he should be defeated, that other things of greater importance are before the people and that the representative of big business the attoftiey and agent of Taggart should be sent to the senate. YAU HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY ABOUT THIS. AND THE RESPONSIBILITY IS YOURS. YOU CANT ESCAPE THE RESPONSIBILITY BY STAYING AT HOME! This is your fight on November 8.
This Is My 44th Birthday

AUTO VERSUS HORSE
Garages Are Made Out of Livery Stables in Southern Indiana.
GOOD ROADS MOVEMENT
Owensville, Ind., Nov. 1. The advent of the automobile into rural towns and communities is causing livery stables in 'southern Indiana to be converted int garages. The stalls formerly occupied by livery "nags" are now furnishing shelter for motor
cars,,., t ' - t fit some of the liveries In Gibson and Posey counties from two to four cars are kept in constant running order, and even the liverymen cannot accommodate all who ask for machines in preference to the horse and buggy. The adoption of motor-car ser. vice has been a paying investment. Drivers employed by the liverymen have charge of every cad that goes out, which eliminates . "joy rides" on the part of those who hire the machines. Traveling men have found the motor service a great time saver enabling them to make more towns in a day than formerly. The liverymen as a rule were earnest workers for the improved roads before the coming of the automobile, but since its arrival they promote good roads with more energy than ever. Their work is meeting with fruitful - results. The improved roads are being extended in every direction
Ex-Governor George H. Utter is the Republican candidate for Congress in the Second Rhode Island district. - As was generally expected. Governor Donaghey of Arkansas , has announced his candidacy to succeed United States Senator Jeff Davis. A. J. Houston. Prohibition candidate for governor of Texas, la a son of Gen. Sam Houston, one of the most heroic figures in American history. Mrs. Ella Reeve Bloor of Waterbnry has been selected by the Socialists of Connecticut as the candidate for the office of Secretary of State. As in the cases of Grover Cleveland and Charles E. Hughes,'the father of Governor Judson Harmon, of Ohio.was a preacher. Governor W. W. Kltchin has announced his candidacy to succeed United States Senator F. H. Simmons, whose term in the senate will expire March 4, 1913. In Minnesota every candidate for congress on the Republican ticket has formally declared himself opposed to the re-election of Mr. Cannon as Speaker. Warren G. Hardtng, Republican candidate for governor of Ohio, was a school teacher and a lawyer in hia early years, before he became a newspaper editor. According to a canvass made by a New York newspaper, there are sixty-one congressional districts in which the results of the coming election are apparently doubtful. , The American party the party in opposition to the Mormon church is expected to be a prominent factor in the election in Utah next week. The party is already in control of Salt Lake City. Two amendments to the constitution of West Virginia will be voted on at the coming election. One provides for an increase in the number of supreme court Judges and the other is designed to enable women to serve in minor positions in the public service. r Of the six Democratls members of the United States senate whose terms expire next March Senator Frazier of Tennessee appears to be the only one in danger of losing his seat. The other Democratic seats then to be vacant are those of Texas, Mississippi, Virginia, Maryland and Flort-' da. William S. Kenyon, who, it Is said, may be appointed United States Senator to succeed temporarily the late Senator Dolllver of Iowa has made a reputation as a lawyer, and is now an assistant to the Attorney General of the United States, occupying the position recently held by Wade H. Ellis. At the coming election Florida is to take a vote on the question of State-wide" prohibition. The anti-saloon leagues and temperance organizations are working hard to put the state in the "dry" column. If they succeed it will mean that virtually the entire South will be prohibition territory. . ' .By the death of Ex-Governor Broward, (whose success against Senator Taliaferro in the recent primaries made hini Democratic nominee) the position of United States senator in Florida is now open to candidacy, -and while some of the voters are inclined to leave the issue in the hands of the voters, many others advocate the holding of another primary.' 1
