At the present time there is a pol.tical deadlock in the Indiana senate, there being 25 Republican and .55 Democratic senators. In the event Chambers was elected to congress ami a Republican was elected hia successor in the state senate the Republicans would have the control of that, body, and Chambers refuses to take such a chance. There are now only two announced candidates for the Democratic congressional nomination, former Congressman Finly H. Gray, of Connersville, nd Louis Federmann, of Brookville. With only Federmann as an opponent Gray would. It is generally believed, have po difficulty in securing the nomination, a situation not entirely pleasing to many Democratic leaders. Right now the Shelbyville Democrat, a very influential party organ, is ac.Hyp in its efforts to Induce some proraInpnt Shelby county Democrats to en- , ( t 'Kti against Gray. The Demf ociat f.ug.;t'iiions that Shelby Democracy support either Judge Alonzo ! Blair, Charles A. Hack, E. K. Adams " or Herbert C. Jones.
