Watson and Beveridge Edge Toward Senate Picture
Indianapolis dispatch reports James E. Watson and Senator Beveridge share a clear understanding on the Indiana senate race. Watson says he will not run and backs re election.

Betting boards show Watson momentum, with local money from country districts, and a Rushville rally set for Saturday. An Y M C A youth election yielded a mixed ticket and a prohibition tilt.
