MR.. ovERsTREET's WORK.
He Is Visiting Precinct Committee
men-ROugh Rider Regiments.

Representative Jesse Overstreet, accom-
panied by County Chairman Akin, A. A.
Young and Cyrus J. Clark. spent yesterday
visiting with the Republican precinct
committeeman of Warren and Lawrence
townships. Mr.. Overstreet expects to have
talk with every Republican committee
man in the county before he gets through.
He has already seen number of city COM
mitteemen, and feels much elated over the
enthusiasm shown in the meetings called
for this purpose. In this city ward meet
ings are being held, to which every COM
mitteeman in the ward Is invited. Thus far
all the meetings have been well attended.
This work which Mr.. Overstreet is doing
is part of the general plan for conducting
the Republican campaign in this county,
and 1t Is believed II will be of much benefit
to the ticket. Within short time the Re-
publican county committee will be ready
for active operations. The committee,
which is composed of the precinct commit
teemen of the county, has been somewhat
disorganized on account of the work of re-
districting the precinct boundaries. This
work was recently completed by the County
Commissioners. As result there are 2l0
former system of boundaries there were 229
The new system adds eleven precincts to
the list. Three precincts have been added
in the First ward, two precincts In the
Second ward, one in the Third ward, three
in the Fourth ward, one in the Sixth ward
and one in the Fifteenth ward.
The Rough Rider feature is to be an i'm
portant element in the Republican cam
paign in this county, as IL will be in other
counties of the State, and all over the
country, in fact Cyrus j. Clark, 1t is
Rough Rider forces I'm this county. Mr.
Clark has already been elected colonel of
the regiment of Rough Riders which was
recently organized. Secretary Elliott, of
the Republican county committee, said yes
terday that 200 signatures have already
been received at headquarters for the
Rough Rider lists 1t is expected that
many more will be secured 1t is the plan
TO make a special feature of the Rough
Rider organization of the county on the
day that Roosevelt visits indianapolis. On
in the crowds in this city. As many of
the members of the Rough Rider clubs as
can procure horses will be expected TO ride
during the campaign. Those who cannot
get horses will be organized into infantry
companies.
The Marion Club will not have Rough
Rider organization, although some of its
members may join some of the Rough Rider
clubs. The Marion Club is organizing a
marching club which. when completed, will
have in the neighborhood of three hun
two hundred. The members of this organi-
cation will have a uniform which will in
clude a Fedora hat, a double-breasted blue
serge coat and white duck trousers.

A Willy OLD PRISONER.
Police Strategy Not Successful with
John Davidson.

John Davidson. the old man who drove
thirty-seven sheep to the Interstate Stock
yards for which he could not give proper
accounting to the police and for which ne
was locked up on a charge of grand lar
oeny, has been the objective point of all
the strategy known to the police and de-
tcctives. In Police Court yesterday morn
ing he maintained his defiance and self
assurance and his case had TO be con-
tinued until more whence is found against
him. Captain Kinney, of the detectives, and
Captain Kruger, of the police, tried In
every way to get statement out of him.
but he was too wary. Taylor Groninger. the
Police Court prosecutor, was called in con-
sultation yesterday morning and IL was de-
Cided to try a ruse. Groniger feined drunk
enness and was locked up with Davidson.
After awhile he became "chummy" with
the gray-haired prisoner by telling story
of his checkered life, but all he got out OF
Davidson was some ''fatherly advice, "
which was to the effect that the less a
man told in jail the better off he would be.
Groninger then asked Turnkey Taffe If he
could telephone a friend" and he was let
out, after two hours imprisonment.

Many Points OF Difference Between
Companies and City.

The members OF the Board of Public
Works and representatives OF the Green
field and Greenwood interurban lines met
IN the Office of the city attorney yesterday
afternoon to discuss the franchise which
has been prepared by the Board of Works
for the interurban companies. Charles l..
Henry, OF the Union Traction Company.
was not able to be present. owing TO an
accident on Wednesday evening in which
ne broke one of the bones in his leg. c. f.
CONN represented the Greenwood company
and Attorney Harding and Secretary Nc
Donald the Greenfield company.
The companies objected TO several sec
tions OF the franchise. The franchise, as
prepared. practically prohibits the lines
from carrying freight and unloading it in
the city. and. should IL be done, the fran
chise states. they shall have depots for
the purpose. To this the representatives of
the two companies objected. as they de-
sired 10 haul freight and have the control
of the business instead OF the Board of
Works. They also objected 20 erecting a
depot There was an objection raised TO
the section of the franchise which stated
that the companies must sell 20 local pas
sengers indianapolis Street-railway Com
pany's tickets. The companies willing
20 take the tickets OF the Indianapolis
Sfreet-railway Company in payment for
fares. but object TO the conductors being
compelled TO carry several dollars worth
OF the tickets. They suggested that pas
sengers expecting to the interur ba n
cars buy their tickets from the conductors
on the indianapolis Street-railway Com
pany's cars.
strong objection was raised 60 the tax
of 800 on each car and the representa-
fives stated that the companies could not
possibly afford 10 pay such a revenue TO
TO- tn sfET4 half
hour schedule which will require a large
plumber of cars. and they requested that
the tax be reduced 20 s. a car.
There was nothing definite accomplished
At the meeting and the matter will not be
taken up Tor final action until Mr.. Henry

Railroad, left for New York city yester-

look after the capitalization scheme Of the
company while in the East. 1t is expected
that work will begin on the road In about
thirty days. The company has been voted
subsidies in eighteen townships through
which surveys have been made. The towns
of Ferdinand, Paoli. Brownstown, Salem.
Grand View, Rockport. Nashville and
Owensboro have agreed to build free of
cost to the railroad handsome passenger

been figuring largely on the natural re-
sources OF the country through which the

be an excellent one for freight traffic.
