FORTUNATE INDIANA
(From the Middletown Newsl

I |.
The state of Indiana, like the ma
tional government, has been fortunate
during the past few years, in that it
has been in control of men whose pur-
pose was to reduce taxes, pay debts
and practice economy in the expendi-
ture of public funds. During the past
six years the state debt has been re-
duced from almost sS,00O,000 to less
than So, 200, 900, and all this time there
has been a gradual reduction of the
tax rate. This is creditable not alone
to the men in charge. but to the party
they represent. In national affairs an
equally gratifying record has been
made. Such administrative policies
have been adopted and such legislation
enacted as not only contributed to gen.
eral prosperity of the country. but
resulted in the payment of large blocks
of the national debt. This has been
done. too, in spite of the fact that an
expensive war has been in progress
during much of the time. The com.
mercial and industrial interests of the
country never were In such prosper.
Gus condition as during the past four
years. Farmers have been especially
benefited in that the prices of such
products as they have for sale are
commanding a higher price than has
been known for quarter of a century.
Labor has also been we'll paid. Money
has been plentiful and obtainable
upon the easiest terms, and there is
no discrimination for or against any
particular kind of mCney-the gold
the silver. the paper dollar, all being
of like value. Such a record cannot
be excelled in the history of this or
any other government. and the peo
pie are satisfied and are not likely to
take the chances of reversing these
conditions by turning out the rarty
thta has accomplished so much.

President Lewis, Secretary Wilson and
the president of each district which is
taking part in the convention. There is
little doubt that the committee will
urge the adoption of the recommended
tons of President Mitchell and the
levying upon the members of the
union of an arbitrary assessment Of
81 per week where there are no check
offices. and of 10 per cent per week
In localities where there are check
offices, and TO use all the funds raised
for the strikers in the anthracite dis
tr;ct.
Motion to Spread the Fund.
AT the opening of the executive ses-
sion Nive President Lewis took the
floor and delivered an energetic speech
on the amendment offered by Delegate
Haskins in the morning to the effect
that the fund to be raised for the aid
OF the anthracite miners be extended
to all of the striking miners where
their strike has been sanctioned by the
general organization. President Mitch
ell then took the floor to speak for the
adoption of the recommendation made
in his speech Of Thursday. He told
the convention that the strikes in West
F.. Virginia ard elsewhere were being
protected by the general organization
under the regular assessments of the
union. but that the assessment which
was under discussion was necessary
fer the support of the anthracite strike
alone and should not b. diverted from
its purpose.
Amendments Are Swept Aside.
After considerable argument pro and
con Haskins' motion was rejected.
Amendments to the motion to adopt
Mitchelrs plans were offered-that the
assessment should be 10 per cent. of
the net earnings: 10 per cent. of the
gross earnings; that in some districts
the percentage basis should be used, In
others the 81 week basis. Then came
the motion 10 refer the matter to the
highest national and district officers,
which prevailed.
VIII Cost Half a Million Weekly.
At the conclusion of the session Sec
rotary Wilson said: 1T will cost $780,
coo weekly to support all the men now
on strike in the various districts. An
assessment of 81 per week upon each
member of the union will bring in
$3.50. An assessment of 10 per cent.
will bring about the same sum. This
will leave us S250.000 to raise each
week from outside sources, and from
the promises and offers that have been
made us we are confident that we Will
be able to do this"

Taking Little Rest.
Senator Beveridge Is off for a two
Mountains and the Pacific coast.
The senator needs rest and will
return physically fit for the active
speaking campaign in which he will
engage Immediately upon his return to
Indiana. Senator Fairbanks will
watch the development of campaign
in which he is vitality interested, at
closer quarters, dividing his time be-
tween his farm in Illinois and his Office
at Indianapolis, with the Indiana state
capital having the advantage in the
division. 1t is considered not unlikely
that he will speak ON public occasions
before the formal opening of the state
campaign. The speaking campaign
will not be long one. but it will prob
ably be possible for one of the Indiana
senators to be heard in every county
in the state before the election, and
in some of the larger centers of popu-
lation it is possible that both of them
will speak.
Governor Durbin has just returned
from vacation enforced by the

man throughout his lifetime, seems to
find 1t difficult to act on the advice of
his friends and take an occasional
rest, but he was finally induced to
make a trip to the north somewhere,
fishing with his friend Bob" DePauw.

NO RENEWAL OF THE STRIKE
Freight Handlers at Chicago Conclude to

Chicago, July 21.-There will not be
a renewal of the freight handlers
strike in Chicago. This decision was
reached at Il special meeting of the
Freight Handlers union last night to
consider report that four of the
roads are discriminating against the
old employees who went on strike
two weeks ago. After a careful inves-
tigation the committees appointed to
investigate the supposed grievances
reported that all the railroads, with
the exception of the Panhandle, arr
living up to their agreements.
While the Panhandle people have
been unable TO place all the strikers.
it was reported that all the old men
would be back at work in the course
of a few days, or as soon as the con-
tracts of the nOn-uniOn men who had
been engaged during the strike, should
expire.
