Of the hulf dozen states of the union which arc classed as politically "doubtfuT, lndliiMH Is perhaps next to New Tork the most fickle. In Its partisan allegiance. Although the dominance of the republicans has been almost entire In the lust dozen yenrs, the Hoosler have not yet reached the stage where they may be t reckoned upon as a CI. O. P. asset. The staunch old-line democracy of Hendricks and Voorhees continues to exert a great Influence In Indiana po litical affairs. This year the com monwealth of Hooslerdom is declared by political wiseacres to bo tho -bat tlcground of the two great parties and beyond doubt the most uncertain state of tho unloa. Campaign managers of both great parties understand this and are pre paring for a battle royal In their en deavors to secure the Hoosler vote Six Ticket in the Held. Six parties have tickets In the field and all arc making extravagant claims of coming victory. That Pehs Is a Hoosler will help the socialist party, while the populists also have an Indiana n on their national ticket as vice presidential candidate. Add ed to this the selection by the demo crats of an Indiana man for second place, and It will be perceived that many personal considerations will play a part In the result. The republicans, after a decade of unbroken supremacy, ridicule the Idea that they will not again sweep the state as In 1896, 1000 and 1904. The democrats proclaim that their party has not been so united nor Its prospects so bright since 1892, and that victory In November Is as good as certain. The prohibitionists now less than ever a negligible factor In Indiana politics expect to make the most vigorous campaign In their v history and believe that for the first time they will break Into the state, legisla ture. The populists, stimulated by the nomination of a Vlncennes man for the vice presidency, are confi dent of making the best showing since the organization of the party. Tho socialists, with an Indlanlan at the head of their ticket, are similarly optimistic. And the Independents avowedly re gard the Hoosler state aa. one of the most promising fields for their prop, aganda. If the plans and projects now being given shape In the councils of the various parties come to realiza tion, Indiana may well feel, as Henry U'atterson predicted, more than any other state In the coming campaign the agonies and throes of political combat. There are, at any rate, half a dozen factors tn tho nltuntlnn nrrtiical to make thefight hotter and the out come more uncertain than In any campaign of recent years. For one thing, there Is the candidacy of John W. Kern. Everybody understands that Mr. Kern had no particular claim to his party's consideration except in so far as his nomination might be expected to help democratic prospects In his own state. At Mr. ISryan's Instiga tion he was placed on the ticket at Denver for this express purpose, and the responsibility for the carrying of Indiana lias been laid absolutely upon his shoulders. Mr. Kern Is admittedly an able, honest man nnd a pleasing orator, an cnuiusiasuc campaigner and a master of political craft. There is no man, unless It bo Bryan himself, who Is more popular among the democrats of the state than he; and outside the ranks of his own party he counts his friends by tho thousands. He stands In close relations with the party forces that were accustom ed to win victories In the eighties and enrlier nineties. It would seem that If any Indlanlan' could be de pended upon to attract Hoosier votes for tho national ticket, that man was John W. Kern. Yet Kern has never been conspicu ous as a vote-getter. The mere fact that he has been twice defeated for the governorship of Indiana does not, perhaps, mean much, for those de feats came in the overwhelming re publican years of 1900 and 1904. None the less, In 1904 his oppon ent was supported In but a half hearted fashion by large numbers of republicans, and though Mr. Kern made a fight which will not soon be forgotten In the state, he was defeat ed by some 86,000 votes and ran barely ahead of the national candi dates, Parker and Davis. It would seem that he Is one of those unfortunate politicians whom everybody likes, but who, more or less unaccountably, is never quite able to convert this pleasing popularity In to a preponderance of votes. The candidacy of Mr. Kern will ungues-1 llonably add z. st to the democratic i HOtT.WVS JI.IVK t'HAXtJKI) S Fli TIFT F. F. Stelnmlti. M. L.

Y., Sept. 2. That governor Hughes may be selected to head the state ticket of the prohibi tionists is the statement of some of the party leaders here today. Others oppose such action, declaring that the prohibitionists should preserve their Independence. It is alleged that pro hibition sentiment has extended by lears and bounds in the Empire state during the last few years and that I'hafln will receive the largest vote every cast in New York for a prohi bition presidential candidate.

Mr. Bryan mayi as well retire from the race and save' trouble and expense. Governor Green MeCurtain, chief of the Choctaw na tion, says so. And what Governor MeCurtain says goes Among the Choctaws. In past elections, the Choctaws have been consistent democrats and have always voted the ticket straight. Disappointed by the alleged failure of the democratic state administra tion to keep Its promises to the red skins, MeCurtain has come out flat footed for Taft, and declares that the men of his tribe will vote the repub lican ticket from top to bottom. It is alleged that the bad feeling against the administration extends also to the Chickasaw tribe and that tho latter will Join with tho Choc taws In supporting the republican party. Republican politicians of tho new state are Jubilant at the reported ac cession of the redskins, but the dem ocratic leaders are Inclined to take the reports with a grain of salt. They say that MeCurtain cannot control the vote of his tribesmen and that even should he succeed In doing so the 5000 or 6000 Indian voters will not be sufficient to overcome the white democratic majority in Okla homa.
