j. W. RiERN~ N~OMNATED. Xr. Taggart Would Rather See Kern hi the Senate Than to be i !ore Himself. Indianapolis, Ind., April 29. -Open ing in riotous discord and closing in enthusiastic harmony, the Indiani Democratic convention adopted Gov ernor Marshall's proposition that it should endorse to next year's legisla ture a candidate for the United States senate and named John W. Kern,: who Was the party's candidate for vice-president in 1908. This action means that Kern should be elected to succeed Senator A. J. Beveridge, provided the Demo rats have a majority in the next tate legislature and that a majority eres to the endorsement made to The opposition to the plan of en dorsing a candidate wanted a State primary to select a senatorial nomi .nee. The opposition made a grim fight under the leadership of Thomas Tag gart, formerly chairman of the Dem ocratic national committee and him self a candidate for the nomination for senator, but defeated, it joined heartily with the element headed by Governor Marshall and John E. Lamb of Terre Haute, vice chairman of the national committee, also aspirant for the senatorship, in a shouted accla mation of Kern as the party's candi date. This issue overshadowed the adop tion of a platform and the naming of a State ticket. "The Taggart machine is on the scrap heap," said Mr. Taggart to the ,convention, giving up the struggle with a broad smile. "I am going to say something most of you won't be lieve, but I would rather see Kern in the senate than to be there my self." Ve then delivered the 183 votes of the Marion county (Indianapolis) delegation to Kern in the second bal lot, though Kern declared in the course of the first ballot that his name has been ' presented without arrant and "he was in no sense a candidate." The voting proceeded, Kern gain ing more and more, until the fourth ballot when all the other eleven can-j -didates having withdrawn, he was nominated unanimously. During the vote on whether the vention should endorse a sena candidate, the delegation from county and Indianapolis, Tag-' ome, cast 180 votes against' e votes for the plan., -There; ' pute and the negative vot e to be counted. An enthus upporter of Lamb pressed his rough the crowd to shake s with the Indianapolis "insur " but he was met with a blaw~ e face before he reached themn. general fight between the * o dele tions impended, but the police frc their- way 'between them and or er was restored. A full State 'ticket, except Govor nor and lieutenant governor, was' nominated without much excitement.I GEN. E. P. ALEXANDER DEAD. Distinguished Confederate Officer Passes Away in Savannah.
