CALL REPUBLICAN SESSION A TRIGK TO SECURE VOTES The Watson-Goodrich-McCray Combination Hits Snag at Indianapolis. INDIANAPOLIS, July 2Z. One of the most famous straddles In th? legislation annals of Indiana is beln attempted by the Watson-Me-Cray-Goodrich machine which is In complete control of the republican majority In the special assembly session. The problem that the manipulators are endeavoring to solve Is how to extricate the Goodrich administration from tho taxation muddle and at the same time place th? party in a position to appeal for votes this fall. It is bein openly charged and thus far has not been contradicted by the administration spokesmen that the sole object of the special session is designed with an eye on Noven ber. regardless of beneficial legislation. Senate vs. House. The straddle Is hi in?; worked by playing the Senate against tho Hou.-e in the hope that the attendant publicity siven ihe so-called diverging views will lead the public to believe that the republicans arc actually repudiating Coodrich:s.m and are following out the o. O. P. platform pledges. One of the best instances of thiIs illustrated by the Tuthill bill passed by the house and the substitute Kipor measure favored in the senate. Th essential feature of the Tuthill bill legalizes the horizontal increases ordered by the state board of tax commissioners and which were declared invalid by thf up re nie court. The legillzatlon measure was opposed by the Indiana Farmers federation and a Kreat j number of other citizens, but it v:n an administration measure bearing the endoisemcnt of Watson and Mc1'rny and was pushed through by Speaker Jcs-m? I'schbiM h when Goodrich cracked the whip. The senate then took up the Kiper substitute which in priaciph employes the trm "validation" instead of -leg-alii-ation" and it was announced that it was a compromise b'tv.een the law favored by tho Farmers federation and the Tuthill bill. It is .asserted by experts who nre watching the procedure that both measures are s-ubstar.tially tho same in import. rni!cr PUsutMicd. Wide spread publicity was given to the claim that the farmers' bill was incori'Orated in the senate suhi titule. The real facts are that tho J executive committee of the fedora-j tion was evenly divided on the senate mendations they made to the senate nd that a few of the items desired by the farmers' at e included in th-. ' Kiper substitute. It is charged j that the periling measure as now j framed bears little resemblance PjI that favored by the farmers. ! The Johnson House bill, which! was advertised by the republicans s a liquid ition of the platform promise to restore bond issues and levy control to local taxing unitd. ! is. declared to be a neat piece ef j administration camouflage designed 1 tt give the state board of tax com-j mis.-ioners een (greater powers than: they have previously enjoyed. !

TELLS OF POWER WHICH MADE GOD GREATEST OF MEN District Superintendent of the Methodist Episcopal Church Talks. Tho power which made Christ tht outstanding figure of a'.i ages thojsrh he did none of the thing which have brought the names of other men down through time, vas the subject of a powerful sermon delivered Sunday morning by Lev. Henry L. Davis, district Superintendent of the Methodist Kpiscopal church at the First Methodist churvh. Kev. Davis tcok as his subject "The Magnetic Christ" Uiking the text front John, 12th chapter, Cist and Cnd verses. In opening he pointed out that Jesus differed from the remainder of great men in the fact that He wrote no booka nor poems, carved no sculpture, painted no picture, weilded no sceptre and were no crown yet remains to this elay tho greatest figure since the beginning of history. Two Told Power. "The secret of His pow er, ' he declared, was not In His physical greatness nor in His Intellectual brilliance-, nor in wealth, nor the force of His great personality. His power was two-fold: "First in His bringing judgment into the world for sin. That judgment was not defined as the judgment but as A judgment, the Judgment of sin in the life of every n -in. He had tho pow er to brin-; to man that of whic'.i he had never before met self-condemnation. Whenever the sinner came In contact with Christ, seif condemnation followed. We read of it in innumerable instances a-s in the case of Peter crying, "Depart From Me for I am a sinful Man." We find it with Zacchaeus whose confession comes forth before the condemnation is pronounced. Mary Magdalene comes confessing her sins when she stands in the presence of her Lord. Greatest I.oe. "The second force in the attrac-i tlvo power of Jesus Christ is His I love. The spirit of hrothei diness is I one outstanding feature in the lord's life. In trie charge 'He cateth with publicans' is packed a world of meaning. It is one thing to spea'c to the sinner and quite another to eat with hin. Put Christ does both and by his dying love compels men to own Him conqueror. "Thus Christ explains His own attractive power, first men judge their.se dves in his presence, thus men are to commit judgment unto the Lord. 13y His love he draws seif condemned men unto him. "It is well that all men leave Judgment unto Him but in turn like their Lord, to lovo the self-condemned sinner." KIW'AXIS CLUB TO PICXIC AUGUST 4 NEAR ST.

SAYS IRISH

PROBLEM IS VERY GRAVE Sir Horace Plunkett Hopes For Sinn Fein-Orangeman Compromise. r.y Asioi-iate.l Tress LONDON, July Vlunkett. founder 20. Sir Horace of the Irish dominion league, nnd leader of the! moderate Irish nationalist opinion told a New Castle audience Sunday that the f-ituatlon in Ireland is more gravely alarming than it has been within his knowledge of sixty years. A similar view is reflected by tho newspapers of both England and Ireland ol" all haxles of politics. It found expression in all the-speeches of Thursday's discusisons in tho house of commons, even ir Edward Carson declaring he had never known anything like the slate of aunrchy prevailing, and that "in three quarters of Ireland, the British government has ben entirely beaten." -ir Haniar Greenwood, chief secretary for Ireland warned the country to brace itse!f against ji bitter period In Irish history. Del fast uiet. The rioting in Uelfast subsided today but there are plenty of signs that the lull is only temporary. Loth from Premier Lloyd-George's statement to the labor delcgatien Thursday and from Sir Hamar's speech, it was considered apparent that the government regards that parting of the ways as having been reacheel. Ono road leads toward negotiation with the Sinn Fein on the basis of a domnion form of government, while the other apparently leads toward the bitter period which Sir Hamar foresees. with icore soldiers and stricter laws fur repression, foremost among them one for the trial of criminals by summary courts, and the giving up of attempts to induce jurymen to answer to a summcn& Kxtrcmc Factions, -Thertfire two extreme factions' in Irelaml now. the Orangemen of tho north, who insist upon maintaining the Irish system, as it is, and the Sinn Fciners, who demand independence. Between these policies lies the middle course of dominion government with Lister excluded. which Premier Lloyd-George haaj declared he is willing to consider Sir Horace Plunkett said: "My hopes of a settlement lie far more in the organized workers of Great liritain than in any other agency." It is understood James Henry Thomas, labor member of the house of commons, and other laborites will follow the premier's plain hint to bring the Sinn Feiners into a conference. That, however, would mean throwing overboard the principal plank ef the Sinn Feiners platform, which is an independent republic. Ltlgc of Volcano. The Dublin correspondent of tho London Times, who is the editor of tho principal southern unionist newspaper, the Irish Times, Sunday urges the dominion form of government He writes: "The vast majority of Irishmen would welcome any reasonable and honorable escape from their present situation. They are standing on the edge of a volcano." The correspondent expresses the belief that the author of dominion rule for 26 counties would find favor with ail moderate Irishmen and says the mass of southern unionists are f.nxious for such an offer without delay. The chief factor operating to bring Irish affairs to a head is the latest phase of warfare that of retaliation The events of the past few tlays have shown that when assassinations occur it means an outbreak of revenge by the other party, in which peaceable people suffer. There is no prediction how far these outbreaks may go. Another battalion of soldiers arrived in Belfast Sunday, making live on the ground. Three regiments of cavalry at Aldershot have been ordered to be ready to proceed to Ireland. The lord mayor of Belfast has issued an appeal to the citizens of that city to aid in restoring order, declaring that the authorities are determined to use drastic measures to deal with elisorder.
