BEVERIDGE FORCE PROMISE HOT FIGHT Indiana Senatorial Campaign to Receive Nation-Wide Attention. NEW’S FRIENDS PREPARE Activities of Mayor Shank of In- dianapolis in Opening Skirmishes Stir State. Special Diepateh to The Star. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., February “The flag is unfurled. Go to it! Keep sweet and God bless every on With these words, pronounced from the dooryard of his own home, Albert J. Beveridge, in his announcement of his candidacy for the republican nomination for United States senator a few days ago, turned loose the Beveridge adherents who had jour- neyed from many counties of the state and started a political fight that will attract natiog-wide attention. On the other side of no man's land is United States Senator Harry S. New, who will battle for renomina- tion, and, according to word that comes from the camp of Senator New, he is just full of fight as can be. On the night before Mr. Beveridge made his announcement the lieuten- ants of Senator ew to the number of several hundred were in a meeting in Indianapolis, declaring that Sena- tor New, ving served only one term in the Senate, was entitled to six years more, and referring sarcastically to the manner in which Mr. Bever- idge had been brought into the cam- paign. Causes Indignation. One sentence in Mr. Beveridge's speech of announcement was particu- larly irritating to the keyed-up nerves of the friends of Senator New. Addressing those who journeyed to his home. Mr. Beveridge said that the formation of the Beveridge-for- Senator clubs which they represented constituted “a mandate which no man can ignore.” Just how much ' indignation this poise of Mr. Beveridge caused caan be understood when it is known that the supporters of Senator New assert that there has been no spontaneous de- mand for the Beveridge candidacy and that the whole mess of “Bev- eridgeism” has been cooked up by a dozen or so of the personal lieuten- ants of Baveridge. “What,” they ask. “has Harry New done or failed to do to justify any ade in his own party against ng a second term?” And the Beveridge people, they add, are” at- tempting to mzke a crusade of it, for afrer Mr. Beveridge said, “God bless every one!” did not Lew Shank. the mayor of Tndianapolis, and a promi- nent figure in the crowd. lead in the singing of “Americg.” and did not gome woman high ftrung with emo- tion, cry out: _“The nation needs Beveridge, for God knows the prob- lems of reconstruction are greater than those of war!” The supporters of Mr. Beveridge, of course, even if they do not say o .in So many words, infer that Mr. Bev- eridge is a far bigger man than Sena- tor New, and that the republians of the ‘state, wisely sceking the most able senator at this critical time, should cast precedent aside and de- cline to send Senator New back for a sccond term. Expect Merry Fight. It-can casily be seen from the state of mind on hoth sides that the fight is going o be o merry one. Already leaders of both sides are making protestations of d and the Reveridge state publicity representa- tive has come out with a statement in which he says that the Beveridge fighters will keep away from per- sonalities and trv to conduet the kind of campaign that. regardless of who is nominated, will not inter- fere with republican victory at the election next fall, The Beveridge publicity represen- tative had no sooner made his decla- ration than Fred I. King, the state manager for Senator New. in another public statement. asked the Beveridge man why. if he proposed to conduct such a diznified campaign had Lew Shank, the mayor of Indianapolis, been going over the state already, making speeches and attacking the e Colds Toothache - REFUSING TO SUE, GIVEN LIFE JOB AFTER INJURY By the Associated Press.

Piso has been rewarded by Henry Ford, owner of the road. - Piso was badly crushed and bruised in a crossing accident While employed by the railroad. Ford ordered him taken to a hos- pital, where he remained until fully Tecovered. Ford's representatives then made a proposition to pay all his ex- penses while he was disabled, al- low him full pay with a bonus and give him a life job as crossing watchman here. Piso accepted.

As a matter of fact, a great many republicans, including the friends of Senator New and friends of others who expect to seek state offices, are considerably worried about Mayor Shank, who is regarded as one of the main orators of the Beveridge cam- paign and who made speeches for Mr. Beverldge in many parts of the state |even before Mr. Beveridge had an- lnounred his candidacy. Connidered Terribly Blunt. Shank is such a terribly blunt and plain-spoken fellow. Recently Shank, enraged by certaim action that had been taken by the state public service commission, ied a protesting crowd of 10,000 to the statehouse and asked Gov. McCray, a republican, to” come out of his office and defend the agts of his service commission. When the governor did not respond, Shank made a speech in which he referred to the governor as a “bull merchan from the northern part of the state.” a phrase that was particularly apt and cutting, because the governor is tone of the best known livestock dealers in the country. | Then. a few days later, Shank gave out a statement. which was published in the newspapers, in which he re- ferred to a member of the state tax board as “a big stiff,” and advised the tax board member that if he would cut off his whiskers he would not “have the dyspepsia so bad.” Since the tax board member referred to is an appointee of the republican governor, republicans were much put out with the mayor's plain state- ments. “You don’t know what a fellow like that will do,” said one repub- lican, “when he gets out over the state, making speeches in a senator- ship campaign. If he will call a re- publican governor a bull merchant there is no way to tell what he may say about a United States senator.” Another republican referred to Mayor Shank as a bull in the political china shop. Wom Attitude. It has been the contention of the Beveridge people that the republican women of the state will net support Senator New to any great extent. This assertion does not seem to be borne out in the early stages of the campaign. Some of the most active and best known republican women have announced that they will sup- port Senator New and are working for him. Several women have lined up actively for Mr. Beveridge. It does not appear that either candidate will have a monopoly of the support of the women, although seemingly the wives of active organization re- publicans will, for the most part, be for Senator New, this being true be- cause the republican organization largely is 'supporting New. Another thing obviously In favor of New is the strong and open support he is re- ceiving from Indianapolis business men. On the other hand, Mr. Beveridge will have the support of those who are not pleased with the way things have been going since a republican administration took charge at Wash- ington. Democratic leaders are observing the beginning of the New-Beveridge fight with great interest, and, it is said, will not make any move in their campaign until it; has been thor- oughly died léaders. Democrats believe that en- mities may be stirred up in the re- publican party that will result in democratic victory. Democratic lead- ers from all parts of the state have just held a conference in Indianapolis and decided to bring out the strong: est possible tickets in all congres- sional districts.
