Special In The News-Times: INDIANA FOI, IS. May 18. The democratic party of Indiana Is going to determine this week whether it wins Indiana this fall or whether it continues to be the anvil on which the republican politicians beat out their products. Two distinct courses confront the party and there must be a choice at the democratic convention. Democracy may be said today in Indiana to be divided into two camps, the one hoisting the banner bearing "no quarter" as Its inscription, the other waving a flag whoso best symbol would be the '"soft pedal" of the political piano. These two factions are going into a struggle at the convention that will not only determine the nature of the campaign but will settle, this early, whether the democrats have a chance to win in November. The militant democrats of Indiana on whose shoulders rest the only chance the democratic party has of success in the state are encountering strong opposition in their attempts to lay out a campaign that will be worthy of the name. Sott IVclalers Arc Arthe. They are opposed by the democrats who have business interests in common with the republican, who 1 ave no stomach for a llsht and who desire nothing so much as to be regarded as the democratic party without any necessity for doing that which is necessary to maintain a party. There will be three campaign speakers and one woman epeaker at tlie opening of the democratic state convention, and only one keynote speech. Vlce-Fres't Marshall will get off a lot of sophisms about the constitution, getting back to democracy and religion. Former Gov. Ralston will discuss the righteousness of the democratic i.alional party in his own inimitable style and. as usual, his learned discourse will go over the heads of the most of his hearers. Claude C. Howers, of Ft. Wayne, will strip the hide off the Goodrich administration, nail it to the cabin door a-s a symbol for victory and give the democrats an Idea of what they must deal with in event they really want to carry Indiana. McCulIoch for Governor. Howers was selected to sound a SPAMS1I SWORDSMEN AWAIT DECISION OF ARMY AUTHORITIES MADRID, May IS. Spanish army swordsmen are eager to accept the invitation forwarded through the Spanish arrbassador to the United States suggesting that they visit America next fall to content In a fencing tournament. Although the government has not yet decided whether the Invitation shall be accepted, preparations ar being made for competitions to be held throughout the country to select a team worthy to uphold Spanish traditions of swordsmanship. Some of the fencers in the Spanish army are noted for their prowess. Majs. Macapinlac and Laso and Capt. Coronte aro experts with the foil: Majs. Vara?.

Wetmore died Monday afternoon at his home, on Union st. He was born in New York state and was 76 years old. He leaves his wife and one daughter. Mrs. J. Howard Taylor, of Chicago.

keynote for the Indiana campaign because it was well known that neither of the senior speakers would do so. Following the oratory the convention will name Carleton li. McCulIoch for governor and select the other members of the state ticket. It will also li.ame delegates at large to the San FVanclsco convention and therein it will probably show some surprises. Thomas It. Marshall, as usual, has his lightning rod in the air and hopes that in its despair the democratic party will select him as a standard bearer. He knows that if the selection were left to Indiana democrats he would not be selected and he proposes to go to the democratic convention as an Indiana delegate in order to Insure being able to tell the convention what he thinks of it. There will be no opposition to Mr. Marshall as a delegate. The party in Indiana generally feels that he will attract national attention to the delegation, entertain the national convention and do no particular harm beyond "riling" William J. IJryan. Women on Delegation. As to the other members of the delegation at large there is some disp-ute. Most of the democrats think it would bo good politics to send at least two women as delegates, and both Alice Foster McCulIoch of Ft. Wayne and Julia Landers of Indianapolis agree wholly with this view. Miss Landers, howover, asserts that she is not willing to pre-empt the seat that Thomas Taggart ought to occupy, and Mrs. McCulIoch says she is going as a delegate. Hut all of this is merely interesting. The real question that will be determined at this convention is what, if anything, the democratic party of Indiana stands for. The answer thereto will be fcund in the platform. If the state convention adopts a platform that has teeth In it and affords the independent republicans a chance to express their disgust not only with Goodrichism but the republican senate and house in Washington, when they go to the polls, the democrats will carry Indiana this fall, according to the militants. The "soft pedalers" are not so optimistic. SPANISH STUDENTS AT NOTRE DAME GET OUT ANNUAL BOOK The students of the University of Notre Dame will be the publishers of two college annuals this year, the extra edition being in Spanish for the benefit of the Iatin American society at the university. The society's publication is entitled "Nosotros," which means "Ourselves." The editor in chief of "Nosotrcs" is Alfonso Anaya. Mexico, who gradvates this year from the college of law.
