the state prison, one time friend of to
Senator Beveridfce and always a rriend of Elam II. Neal. Mad Place For Lee. Shideler it was who accompanied Neal to Senator Beveridge's office after the former had received a telegram from the senator calling for his resignation as revenue collector, in order to make a place for Kdwin .M. Lee. It was at this conference that Shideler told Senator neverldge no one could
ay in the fights he had made and in
he routs he had suffered, he had left
Jiis wounded upon the battle Held. There is the barest likllhood that Shideler welcomed the chance to Bit in a .meeting in which Senator Beverldge ihad an interest. In any event, he arose in the meet-
ling to speak on the time of effecting
the reorganization. Samuel Thomas tfcad moved that April 1 be the date and this motion was seconded by Hen)ry W. Bennett. George Cromer moved 'to amend by making the date of electing delegates Jan. 26 and 27. Shidefler spoke at this time. Has Its Hands Full. "If I ever get up at 7 o'clock in the Ciorning," he said, "it is when I have big day's work to do. The Republican party has its hands full this time, iff we are to believe the interviews given out by Chairman Lee, and I am therefore in favor of a very early organization." Dr. Stalker of the Third moved to amend the amendment by making the time, the first week in February. This notion was lost by a vote of 9 to 3, Stalker, Bennett and Thomas voting In the affirmative. Cromer's motion carried 9 to 3 and the original motion as amended passed unanimously. The precinct meetings are to be held Jan. 26 and 27; the meetings for the reorganization of the county committee, Jan. 29; the district conventions, Jan SI and the meeting of the new state committee, Feb. 2. In the discussion upon tho question of time, Will If. Hays of Sullivan, upon whom Senator Beverldge has counted lnt he past. Insisted that the reorganisation be made at once. Bennett, Stalker and Thomas, although the latter moved to make the date April 1, insisted on the first week in March. Durre of the First and Peck of the Fifth preferred the middle of February, they said. Both have been identified with the Beverldge organization In the past. Beverldge held a conference with Jacob Bauer of the Fourth Tuesday night at which he insisted that Bauer stand with Lee. Bauer refused absolutely, it was said. Stalker and Durre also were called to Senator Beveridge's office but the latter apparently did not agree to stand hitched or If he did agree, he ignored his pledge under the hypnotic power of Harry S. New, Fred A. Sims, Elam Neal, Winfield T. Durbln. Jim Watson, George Lockwood, et al. Jim Goodrich Active. James 1. Goodrich, former state chairman, was active throughout the
day in a variety of capacities. There was said to have been a movement to expel Lee from the state committee but this was thwarted by Goodrich. Harry S. New was charged late In the day with having tried to start a stampede to expel Lee but New said in explanation that he was angered by Usee's Interview Wednesday morning and had stated while all "het up" that "if I were a member of the state committee, I would vote to expel the state chairman." Winfield T. Durbln. also was accused of working to oust Lee, summarily. Elmer Bassett of the Sixth was active in the maneuvering against State Chairman Lee. Bassett had the moral support of James E. Watson who circulated through the hotel lobbies durthe day. Jim Henry who was expected to line up with Chairman Lee deserted him altogether and voted with the regulars on every proposition. Jacob Bauer, Fourth district committeeman, who announced Tuesday night that he would not be a candidate for re-election, changed his mind Wednesday and stated after the state committee meeting that he might be a candidate after all. He said he had discovered since coming to Indianapolis that both the Beverldge wing of the party and that wing led by Col. New are for him. His sudden popularity appears to have effected a change in his political program. While it had been decided at noon Wednesday to complete the reorganisation of the new committee by Jan. 25, the meeting held at the suggestion of Col. New Wednesday at 1 p. m., to determine what should be done in the way of chastising Chairman Lee also decided to make the date one week later; partially as a sop to the Bever-Idge-Lee crowd,-and partially because It was thought better not to hold the meeting during the week of the banquet ot the Republican Editorial association. James P. Goodrich argued that "every concessions possible," should be made to the progressives. No one has been mentioned seriously as the probable successor of Edgar Durre, First district committeeman. Durre is not a candidate. He caid yes terday that First district Republicans are in good fighting form with litle factional trouble and that they should carry the district next year. Will H. Hayes is expected to succeed himself as chairman ot the Sec-

ond and there is a content in the Third between Bob .Morris of Madisor and Dr. Hodine Stelker of Borden, present committeeman. If Jacob Bauer decides to ask tor a re-election in the Fourth District, there will bo three candidates, John M. Lewis of Seymour and V. G. Oliver, mayor of Franklin. Thad Peck is a candidate to succeed himself in the Fifth and Will Risk is pitetl against Linas Merdith in the Sixth, so it is said. Iewis is a lawyer and former circuit judge by appointment. Peck is a lawyer, formerly with progressive leanings, while Risk of the Sixth is Henry county chairman and retiring county auditor. John Rucklehaus is the only avowed candidate in the Indianapolis district and no one has announced against Dr. C. S. Culbert in the Eighth. Charles Wheeler, former Hamilton county chairman, and custodian of the State House, by virtue of eleventh hour work in the campaign of 11)08, has no opposition in the Ninth. W. O. Thomas a young lawyer of Monticello is mentioned prominently for chairman of the Tenth. There is a spirited contest in the Eleventh with no indications at present of the probable successor to F. M. Stults, postmaster at Huntington. Perry Smith of Warsaw, wants to succeed Jim Henry in the Twelfth and Fred Woodward, a young lawyer at South Bend, has been selected in the Thirteenth as the candidate of the old guard. Charles C. Coleman, Brazil superintendent of schools, is canvassing his friends in regard to a prospective candidacy for state superintendent.

of the county organization, then
feating him for district chairman. Sample of Boss Rule. Perhaps the most glaring example of boss rule came when the quest ior. as to the method of naming tha deic-
te:itfn arrise. Snme wanted a committee
appointed by the chairman to telect j delegates, others to allow Beck to name his own delegates, while others
wanted the convention to make the choice. The Bayer crowd favored the first method. When this plan wjs put up for vote, there was a question in the minds of some as to whether the convention really wanted a committee to name the delegates, but not i-i tho mind of the chairman, who declared "The ayes have it." He then named Ben G. Price, Fred Krone and Frank Macke as a committee to select delegates and alternates. During the argument on the best method of selecting the township delegation the two factions spit fire it each other, the chairman accusing his enemies of being afraid of him and the Study crowd impunged the methods of the chairman. All the past unpleasantries in the party locally were recalled in the brief space of time the committee was making its nominations. The turn down of Bayer for the
mayorality nomination, also George r?.
Harris, for district leader and numerous other unhealed political sores were exposed. The delegates named by the nominating committee, include Hans Koll, Mike Kelly, Benj. Price, William Smith, Charles Shafer, Andrew Hoover, Harry Daub, Adolph Bliekwode', Henry Elstro, Lou Ashley, Anton S'olle, William Schutte, Mark Penneli. Orla McKee, Samuel Dunlap, and 13. F.

Origin of an English Custom. Parliament's custom of assembling for a new session on Tuesday instead of on the first working day of the week originated in the religious scruples of legislators of a century ago. In 1S09 it was proposed that Monday should be made the day of meeting, but William Wilberforce, member of parliament for the county of York, pointed out that for himself and many other members this would involve Sunday traveling, a thing he abhorred. So the day was changed to Tuesday, and a Sabbatarian scruple has ruled the action of parliament to an era which sees more motor cars on Sunday than on any day of the week. London Spectator.

Miss Sarah Biffen was a conspicuous example of the skill which armless people sometimes acquire tu spite of their affliction. She was miniature painter to tjueen Victoria, and her work was widely known for Us beauty and delicacy. She was born without arms, but as a girl, having a great wish to become an artist, sne worked earnestly for years until sbe could paint by holding the brush in her teeth, in 1821. according to the Raja Yoga Messenger, the judges, without any knowledge of the means sbe was compelled to use. awarded her the gold medal of tbe Society of Arts, a prize sought by hundreds of others. M. de Mentbolon and Bertram Hiles were other artists who were deprived ot the use of their arms. The former bad only one foot, which be used to paint with. Mr. Hiles lost both his arms In an accident, being run over by a street car when be was only eight years old and when be was just beginning to acquire skill in drawing.
