Have a Grievance Against
Gov. HanIy for DiIatory
Tactics Displayed
POLICE BOARD VACANCY
MANY APPLICANTS FOR THE
PLACE, BUT THE HOOSIER Ex-
ECUTIVE REMAINS OBDURATE
APPOINTMENT COMING SOON

Richmond Democrats, or at least
some of the leaders, are still in a
huff over what they term the dilatory
tactics of Governor Hanly in persist
emily refusing to name a member OF
the Richmond police board to fill the
vacancy caused by the resignation OF
Clifton Merrill, Democratic member
last summer.
1t is said that some OF the Demo
Gratis have written to Governor Haniy
asking an explanation. Other Dem
ocrats have also written, not for an ex-
planation, but for the appointment.
In the meantime, the two Republican
members are at the helm and affairs
of the police department are running
along as smoothly as if the third mem
Der were sharing in it's deliberations.
1t was reported yesterday that on
January j, at the farthest, and posi-
bly, before that date, Governor Hanly
will name a police commissioner for
Richmond. Yesterday he reappoint-
ed a number of commissioners for va
rious Indiana cities. but no allusion
is made to Richmond.

HIGHER COURT RULINGS CITED
TO SHOW THAT COUNCILS
RIGHTS ARE LIMITED TO CON-
SIDERABLE DEGREE.

The proposition to establish more
hitching racks in Richmond for the
benefit of the farming classes. will
il iS understood receive favorable
action from the city council and
Board of Public Works and relative
to this question a citizen who has
been looking up the rights of proper

ties the following to the Palladium:
Editor Palladium: At the present
time the city council is discussing
the hitching rack problem, or in 9TH
er words, the occupancy of the
streets in several localities in a man
ner to blockade travel and to create
nuisance. Primarily, Council can.
not pass an ordinance or resolution
authorizing such occupancy that will
stand the test of the Supreme Court,
for the State statutes clearly provide
against such occupancy and nuis-
ance.. Neither has an abutting prop
erty owner the right to authorize
such for his rights to the streets on
ly include his right to free access
to his property and like the rest of
the public, Alright to travel upon

officers sworn to protect such laws

tion of the right of Council, presum

us investigate a little.
What experience has the city had
upon like questions and what has
been the cost of such experience. In
1897 the City Council saw fit to au-

Blame for Trouble.
SOME FIGURES ARE GIVEN
GREAT RAILROAD SYSTEM GIVES
TO PUBLIC THE DETAILS BY
WHICH "TAB" is KEPT ON THE
CARS.
IPublishers. Press.l

New York, Dec. 22.-From the 10
cal Offices of the Pennsylvania rail
road there was made public tonight
the following statement:
in the face of the present remarkable
Offering of freight the Pennsylvania
railroad has made use of every ex,
pedient to secure the fullest service
of cars which are actually in hand
The geatest difficulties encountered
have been with consignees who have
detained cars for an unreasonable
period. The records of national car
service managers show that during
the quarter, July-September, 1906
the thirty-six car associations handl-
ed 7,741,673 cars. The average de-
tention of 5,690,934 cars for which
records are available was 1.S3 days,
divided as follows: Railroads, .3S
days; consignees, 145 days. The
railroads only earn money by moving
cars; consignees often save money
by using them for stoGehouses pend
ing reconsignment or other disposi-
ton.
The Pennsylvania railroad has
sent letters to shippers and general
agents repeatedly pleading with them
to return cars as promptly as possi-
bic. 1t has about thirty men now on
the road urging station agents and
traffic managers of the large corpor-
ations to hurry back cars. They de-
clare that if each shipper will save
one hour in unloading it will place
ten thousand more cars in service.
THE journey of freight car from
shipper to consignee is now watched
and speeded by the Pennsylvania
freight officials with extraordinary
care, in order that it may reach its
destination without delay, discharge
it's load and be ready for the use of
another shipper.
The superintendent keep their
own records, which show the arrival
and departure of engines, the num-
ber of cars as well as their engine
numbers, the date of their arrival
and departure and in fact furnish a
complete account of the movement
of every car through freight yards,
and the length of time it has been
there"
