SIDE TALKS ON PUBLIC AFFAIRS By Old John Henry.

To the Editor: Indiana folks have been mlRhty good to Toni Marshall. They have thought of him a good deal like his home folk*—as ' Little Tommie” MarahaU iJohn Lamb calls hint the “Little Giant” I don’t know about that It remains to be seen and proved. Just looking on. and viewing things as they happen, I have been Impressed with the Idea that Marshall, instead of working at the governorship, plays a little too much at petty politics. He rays he is trying to "make good” as governor. But he has been trying harder to “make good" as a bitter, narrow, Democratic partisan He says he wws elected at a “fortuitous time. Hlgbt. He was elected, also, on a hracea “nonpartisanship” plea for vote*. I have noticed that there has been mighty little "nonpartisanship” in Govamor Marshall's conduct of the governor's office. And 1 have noticed, also, that tendency to petty political play of which I have spoken. Wben complaints poured in on Governor Marshall that Tom Taggart’s Preach Lt«k Casino wits running wide open, what did Marshall do 9 He ignored French Lick and kicked up a sUr In Lake county and Clark county. He did this In the idea that It uas ’’pretty good politics’ to ex| raceraok gambling in Republican , mmu\tt1e* and cover up the Casino games Democratic Taggart town. Nothing ry atateanianllke about that eh? And now I see that Steve Fleming's ian, George Ptttler, Democrat, it In hanye at the fortunes of public 'Hire who have been probed by the date aoooiHitlng hoard, and that he Is eferring Republican cases tot: , I), moeratic governor, and saving important Democratic prosecutions until after election. Tt strikes ms the people ought to take action to save the account! 'aw from this political menace OLD JOHN HENRY.

TO HIS RECORD in Answer to Nick Longworth's Repudiation. SAYS IT SPEAKS FOR ITSELF Upon Second Thought Uncle Joe Gives Out Prepared Statement in Answer to Announcement From Beverly and Says He Has No Quarrel With Congressional Candidates Who Do Not Like Him. Danville, 111.. Aug. 19.—Speaker Cannon, when first apprised of Nicholas Lougworth’s repudiation of him, telegraphed from Beverly, remarked: “Oh, hell, 1 decline to answer any statement which Mr. Nicholas Longworth may or may not have made until 1 see it. I do not answer auy statements I believe to he fakes that mischievous parties may make. It la enough for me to answer the president of the I’nited States if he has any sta’ement to make touching upon the Republicanism of the speaker of th« house of representatives when he makes that statement under hia own hand 1 will not fight windmills filled by breezes blown from lungs at political or personal enemies or cowards." j 1-ater, when the complete Longworth statement was submitted. Mr I Cannon culled L White Busby, his private secretary, and for the next hour they went over the matter. Mr Cannon th* n dictated one Interview after another, tearing each up until he secured one which suited him This he gave out with the added statement that he hoped this would prove satis factory. The speaker said: “The legislation enacted and the ftoord made by the party during the sight years I have been speaker speaks for itself. I have contributed what I could toward the enactment of that legislation 1 have co-operated with the Republican majority to con gresi In the effort to put on the statute books tbs policies of the party, and I have no apology to make for the part I have taken In the legisla live councils of the nation. "In the present campaign, as far as I am concerned, I will do what I can to bring about tha election of a Republican house of representatives in the Slity-first congress, and without a Republican majority In the next house there will be no Republican speaker. In the event of my election as a mem her of the house I shall attend and abide by the action of the caucus and. from his statement Mr. Longwortb will do the same, as will every RepubHaun member Therefore I have no quarrel w ith Mr. Lougworth as to who shrll be sponger of the next house. There Is no room tor disagreement to chi tic tils matter between Longworth and myself. “If any Republican candidate for congress feels that his position as can dldate on the Republican ticket would be strengthened by pledging that he will not support me in a Republican caucus. I hare no objection to his making the pledge The only lest that I would make as to the Republicanism of candidates for congress Is. will he, If elected, attend the Republican caucus and abide by the result of the same in the organization of the house and the enactment of legislation In puisuauce of Republican policies."

kitera In thla »ttif4 this year TM> Aw tborltatlre statement can be made that Tail has expressed the opinion tuat If a Republican president is to be slaab e4 In 1912 it will be necessary to hawe harmony in this state, and he has more than once assured thus* from this state who have talked with him on conditions here that he will do every* bing in his power to briug about snob harmony. One of the men who worn with Roosevelt said, and be said la making the statement that hs was ixpresatng the colonel's feeling, tiiat whatever differences of opinion Mr. Roosevelt might have with Mr. Taft on national matters, there was certainly no difference between th'm on matters concerning the Republican situation In this state. A HISTORIC PARALLEL TO PRESENT INSTANCE WisRIngton Draws Comparison With Situation In 1892. Washington. Aug. 19.—An dr of gloom pervades Republican circles la Washington Republicans who have an Interest In the national success of their party freely express the opinion that the organization has not (men in snofi a desperate plight since the gloomy period immediately preceding the renoculnstion and defeat of President Harrison. Each day the situation takes a gloomier view from the Washington standpoint. The leaders now foresee a split in their party, and there Is not one In ten but believes that Roosevelt will he a candidate for the Republican nomination In 1912. Whatever the outcome of the light In New York may bs, Republicans here expect that the rent in their party will become nation wide and ttia r even if Roosevelt’e friends fail to prevail in the state convention over the organization. his friends in the we«t and in the middle west will take up the fight for him and a situation may be created similar to that in 1892 when the Democrats throughout the country forced the nomination of Grover Cleveland down the throats of thv Democratic organization in New York, which had declared for Hill and which protested to the very last against Cleveland. Such a situation would Impair the chances of Republican success In 1912 There are a large number of Republicans who believe that Mr Taft could be renominated, even if Roosevelt Is a candidate, just as President Harrison wm* renominated in 1892 Ofay the rwj formidable opposition which was cJnjuring with the name of Blaine But the Republicans who take this view of It feel that the very thing that happened to President Harrison in the national election that followed would happen to Mr. Taft. Tin* dlsgruntlement following the disappointment of Colonel Roosevelt’s enthusiastic followers would probably lead to the defeat of the Republican national ticket

MAINTAINING SILENCE Nothing Given Out at Beverly Regard Ing Reported Political Dea 1 . Beverly, Mass . Aug 19.—If Mr Taft entered into any combination with the Shernian-Woodruff Ward - Wadsworth wing of the Republican party In New York to defeat Roosevelt for the temporary chairmanship < f the state convention the executive offices will not admit it. The president himself has had nothing to say and the secretary to the president will add nothing to that silence. The report, however. Is discredited In other quarters. So far as rumors that the president was to get the New York delegation's vote in the 1912 convention, there is no ground to stand upon. Friends of Mr Taft know that he Is not seeking renornination; in fact, they say he is hopeful that h« will not have to be a candidate H* has been told furthermore by advisers who stand close to him not to antagonize Colonel Roosevelt. His attitude on state fights has been one of nonintervention. but it is possible that he did tell Lloyd Griscom that he favored Mr Roosevelt for temporary chairman If he did so Beverly says It Was because he thought the colonel could be nominated. To one of the highest of his political friends he is known to have said, “For God's sake, avoid a fight.” Reflecting the views of the administration. It is generally believed Representative Nicholas Longwonh of Ohio has given out here a statement In which he says he will never support Speaker Cannon again and that he does not believe Mr. Cannon ever can be re-elected speaker. This is regarded as the actual beginning of the »«al fight on Mr. Cannon There may be further stgnlflcsnos in the fact that Representative I^one worth it going to Oyster Bay 'mnorrow to spend several days with Mr. Roosevelt, which is taken here te mean that a close understanding between Beverly and Oyster Bay as to recent ■agents In New York is to be reached. Gaynor Continually Gaining, New York, Aug. 19.—It was announced at St Mary's hospital that If Mayor Gaynor's condition continues to improve ru It lias during the naet three days, by the beginning of next week the physicians will believe their patient well out of danger and oo the quick road to recovery Today he WM allowed to sit up In bed, propped by pillows, for a brie' period.

THE COLONEL IS SAYING NOTHING fittosM to Discuss Breach Between Hlmsall and Tail. n DOUBT AS TO THE BREAK

Lweq Powwow at Sagamore Hill Lends CowOematloa to Stories That Have Beoowie Current as to the Irreconcilable Confilot That Has Arisen Between Roosevelt and the Administration. Oyster Ray. N Y . Aug. 19.—Present tedlcaMons frq® Sagamore Hill point to either a M-Uer light against the admlntstsatlnn at (ho Saratoga con wtjntlon led by Roosevelt, or the complete absence of the colonel op that occasion If there had been doubt as to the break between Tftft aud Roosevelt It would have vanished yesterday afternoon when severat Important political vlsltons rushed to the HH1 aud held a long powwow. The colonel him•elf had little or no comment to paj*s upon the stories printed in the newspapers. He beamed and beamed. ft was very evident at the departure at County Chairman Lloyd C. Grlsoom, Collector William Loeb, Jr., Congressman Cox, Naval Officers Frederick H. Kracke, and Representative W. M. Qalder, that there had heaa big doings on the Hill. Mr. Loeb said goodby a good many times before he atepped hale a motor car that carried the whole crowd hack to New York. He whispered and looked worried The oolonel was mighty calm and contiaued to smile Mr Rooaevelt Is In sn odd position He Is not anxious to buck the admintstaation, because he wants to wait until later on, when the national situation will loom up so much greater than the New York situation is now. He has said that he Is pleased over the action of the state committee in turntog him down as temporary chairman, Ibr if he had beer forced Into the ohalr be might be held responsible for the defeat that appears to be imminent unless there are swift and unforeseen changes. No one here is wiser to the fact that the Republican party In this ••ate Is torn by factional dispute* than the ex-presldent. Tt has been printed that the oolonel would make no attack on the administration. Judging from the events of the past twenty-four hours he may have (4 do eu a good d*>a) •oomit than he expected. Vice President Sherman In Hewer!r, when he was asked if a “dean cut. progressive platform” would be adopted by the convention, replied that “a clean cut Republican platform" would be adopted, with the loud pedal on Republican. This did not conduce to make the colonel shout with glee He scowled. As a matter ct fact. Mr. Roosevelt believes that Mr Sherman as a representative of the administration, stands for a clique that the colonel cannot stand for. This la on* cause of the breach. Now that It is settled without a shadow of doubt that the oolonel Is goltig his way and the administration tt» way, Sagamore Hill promises to be the scene of many conferences like that of yesterday. So far aa the state situation goes, Mr Roosevelt hae not mad* up his mind as yet. In case the old guard goes to Saratoga anil tdes to undo what It has already done, which Is mighty doubtful, they might realize that with New York lost the colonel would he a good man N> captain the sinking ship and go down with It, The colonel Is pretty "oagey” when tt comes lo matters of this sort. For that reason he believes that he had better wait and make his on slangbt of a national character which will be effective In 1912. It Is by no means settled that the colonel will not be a candidate in 1912. He has not said that he would refuse the nomination If he got it. If he goes ahead and expresses his views independently and lines up with the progressive wing of the party It is generally believed here that the munination will be forced on him, but he will wait and see what happens IBs tacit indorsement of the fight made by Hiram Johnson against tb* machine in California shed some light upon his attitude He oppressed much pleasure upon reading the news of the progressive victory on the ooa*t. The colonel has received 4useos of telegrams from all pa its of lh« country seeking to have him discuss the breach between him aud Ta#t. This he refuses to do. Mr. Griscom refused to say anything ooucerniug the talk he had with Roosevelt. He explained that when he left th* Hill the understanding wa* that anything to be given out for publication should come from the colonel. Griscom. however, it may be stated, ha* the idea, as a result of hi^ talk with Mr. Roosevelt, that the stories which have come from Oyster Bay stating that there has come a break between the colonel and Taft are not well founded. The Information by tbose who were in conference with Mr. Roosevelt was to the effect that so far a* the situation in the state Is consented the two an 1 in entire accord. Mr Taft. It was asserted, is not opposed to a direct primary plan in the state platform; he is not In opposition to the plan of the progressives to reorganize the state machine, which inoidentally would mean the dropping of Chairman Woodruff, and he is strongly opposed to the stirring up of faetion-
