Ore waa for Mrs. Helen M. Cougar, of Lafayette, and the other for Miss Mar jeet Ingels, of Paris, Ky. When the Democrats held their con gressional convention at Crawfordsvllle, Mls Insets and Mrs. Gougar were pres HALF A MILLION IN THIS IS WHAT KEPUBLICANS SAY CITY WILL NEED.

Malting CaplUl Out' of tbo City's Plight Will Not Oppose High Levy. 1 Republican politicians are laughing at the plight In which the city adminis tration finds Itself in regard to nnanciai affair, and say that whatever happens, the Republicans are ''on easy street." Events have proved, they say. that the administration's low tax levy was a campaign dodge, and now they are en Joying the efforts of the cUy comptroller to keep from making a large Increase in the levy for next year. The fact that he admits that a'TO cent levy may be needed Is, they say. evidence of Itself that the present levy was ftxed ror political purposes.

They say me ipuoucau councllmea win vote tor any ievy iiiai the administration sees fit to recommend, even if it la cents. The higher the levy for next year, they argue, the greater the proof of the administration's deceit in fixing it so low for this year, and the smoother sailing they will have if a Republican administration is elected next year. They are looking for more political capital, from the fact that the? administration will have to mike temporary loans estimated by them, at about 000 before It get lti Up to this time has been borrowed ant 170.000 more ts about to be borrowed ror August bills. September and October are yet to come before fall taxes are paid, and. this wilt mean more loans.

These loans mill jhave to be repaid out of fall taxes, and even the city comptroller admits that the end of the year wUl ttnd the treasury absolutely empty. More Loans. To meet e'x pen ses until 'next spring's taxes are paid, another temporary loan will have to be made to cover January. "February and March, the only resources without such a loan being the small receipts from miscellaneous sources. This loan, again, will have to be repaid out of spring taxes so that, whatever the levy, the receipts will not be sufficient to carry the city through, untn next year's 'fall taxes come in.

This means another temporary loan the middle of next year. Between now and the next city election, the Republicans figure, the administration will have to borrow not a cent less than half a million dollars. For this state of affairs the Republican councilmen are taking credit to themseves on account of their policy In not permitting the administration to issue more bonds. If tire department nd city hospital improvement bonds wvre issued, they say. the administration would use the roon.ey.

under the opinion of the city attorney, for current pensee, and perhaps no temporary loans would have to be made. They take the attitude that If these Improvements are found to be' needed, the administration must consent to them out of current or they will not be made this year or next year. A high tax levy, they saV. they do not object to. but the administration will not be permitted again to make a low levy and tide itself over difficulties with money borrowed for specific purposes.

He declared that Hamilton's idoAA of a strong, a just and a protective government were best for this country. Senator Davis, responding to Destiny." said in part: "'in this campaign the Democratic party and its candidates demand th reversal of every domestic anu foreign, monetary, financial, protective and which has made the administration of President McKlnley one of the most gloirlous In our history by the splendor of I Its military and naval achievements, by its revival of dying Industries, by its financial legislation, by ita maklng. the United States te first money poweV in the world, by Ita extension of our sovereignty and by our advancement to the very forefront of international Influence. The Beal Issues. "For the first time the sovereignty of the United States bveri territory held by an unquestionable title is to be abandoned and the flag lowered, and that, too.

In capitulation to a flagrant insurrection against Its authority all this, and more than this, is demanded by the Democratic party as a reason for Its Investiture with power, and Is promised to the American people In. case power Is given to do It. Such demands, such promises, such threats, such consequences will receive the mrtst considerate of the people. "Imperialism Is not the parsmount Issue of the campaign and can not be made so.

"The question for the plain people Is, do they wish, with the Instructions 'of a bitter experience fresh and deep in their memories, to change or submit to the change' of chat abounding prosperity which came with the election Af President McKlnley a. prosperity, which no Democratic platform or speaker denies nor dare not rejoice in or even 'allude to?
