HICKS PREDICTS FOR MAY.
Says the Month Will Have Bad
Weather and Some Frost.

May is to be a continuous perform
ance of tornadoes, thunder storms,
hail and frost Rev. Ira r. Hicks
has hung out the danger signal N his
long distance forecasts for the month,
and trouble is feared by those who
have faith in his representations.
The merry month is to open with a
series of violent thunder storms, APP
preaching tornado violence in the
west, especially on the 3rd and
4th. Low barometer. sultriness, fitful
south winds and restless clouds indi-
cate an almost positive danger at
this time, says Mr. Hicks. The
country at large is to be visited with
heavy rains and hail, followed by late
snow squalls and sleet Frost will
be natural and much probability of
seismic disturbance

perature, daily rains and thunder
storms, with probable tornadoes, is on
the menu from the 18th TO the 10th
and floods over wide sections follow
Immediately. Much cooler weather is
due from the 10th to the 10th From
the 10Th to the 22nd is not seriously
threatening. but look out for lorna
does, says Mr.. Hicks.
Quiet and calm and much warmer
until the cath will usher in the most
dangerous period of the month, and
Monday, Tuesday and Wedne sday, the
25th, 26th and 9th, storms may be
expected TO become very threatening,
if not tornado The 27th is the
twelfth anniversary of the st. Louis

over the central and western parts of
the country The month is to end in
comparative peace, although seismic
disturbance is possible from the 9th
to the 31st.

HOUSEHOLD GOODS
MAY BE TAKEN
ATTY. GENERAL BINGHAM
ADVISES STATE & COUNTY
OFFICERS OF THE Sc
VERIFY OF THE
PRESENT TAX
LAWS.

You must pay your taxes. 1t you
do not pay them, the tax officer has
a right to come into your house and
take your household goods, even
though they may not be worth more
than $l5-yea, whatever may be their
worth, the tax officer hasa right to
take them. This, in substance, is the
official opinion given to the state
board of tax commissioners by James
Bingham, attorney general.
1t seems that law passed in 1897
exempted household goods not ex-
| ceeding in value 500 from the levy
and sale to satisfy delinquent taxes.
| Another law was passed in 1903. 1t
has been understood that the law OF
| 1908 makes it possible to seize house
| hold goods of any value whatsoever
TO satisfy delinquent taxes. But 1t ap-
pears that the conscience OF some OF
the taxing officers out in the state be-
came troubled and they asked the
state tax board for a definite opinion.
| John c. Wingate, of the board, wish
ed to handle the affair just right, so
he got an opinion from the attorney
| general
And according to the opinion OF the
attorney general. Mr.. Taxpayer has
no escape. Even though he may
have nothing more than a cook stove
and bed in his house, the tax col
lector may take them away in the
big wagon 10 satisfy the wants of the
great state OF Indiana, its various
counties, townships and other civil
divisions and the great-capable and
trustworthy public servants
The attorney general holds in BRET
that Section 81 of the tax act OF 1903
directs the county treasurer TO levy
and sell household goods worth even
less than 500 when it becomes nee
essary to satisfy delinquent taxes.
Then the attorney general declares
that since the act of 1903 is later
act than that of 1897 and since i
covers the same subject matter as the
act of 1897, adds new provisions and
makes changes, it was intended by
the legislature to be revision and
to take the place OF the old law and
therefore it repeats the old law by
implication. And then, that Mr. Tax
paying Citizen may understand even
more thoroughly how it is, the at
torney general presents an array OF
high court decisions to show that
such cases and under such conditions
the law first enacted is always repeal
ed by the later statute.
So the last barrier has been remov.
ed and the FAX collector unless he be
unusually modest and sympathetic,
may go into the poorest home and
; remove pots, pans and skillets with
ont the slightest embarrassment to
his conscience.

LOCAL OPTION
LAW IS VALID
ILL. SUPREME COURT SUS-
TAINS CONSTITUTIONALITY
OF ACT-3OOO SALOONS
TO REMAIN OUT-FORE
SHADOWS LAW IN
INDIANA.

The supreme court of Illinois
Thursday by unanimous vote sustain
ed the local option law of Illinois,
under which in a years time 5000 sa-
looms have been voted out in Illinois
The decision sustains the law in its
basic principles and finds that the
legislature has the power to create
anti-saloon territory as it has created
under this law Twenty-Five objec-
tons were raised by the liquor inter-
ests, but all were overruled by the
court One of these is the right of
a municipality to vote itself wet after
its township has voted dry. The pos
session of an excise stamp is made
prima facie evidence of guilt under
law.
The decision is a crushing blow to
| the contentious of the United Soci-
cites, the state organization of liquor
men, and foreshadows a county OPP
ton law by the next legislature. The
court has decided that a township
may vote the cities and villages with
in its boundary dry. If this is valid
then it would be valid for a county to
vote on the subject and make all its
towns and villages dry.

OLD RULES MAY
BE REPEALED
METHODISTS OF UNITE D
STATES TO SEEK FREEDOM
FROM CHURCH LAW PRO-
HIBITING DANCING &
OTHER AMUSE-
MENTS.

The general conference OF the
Methodist Episcopal chruch will be-
gin May at Baltimore and remain
in session for practically the remand
er of the month of May, and it is
probable that some Plymouth people
will be among the thousands who
will be in attendance constantly and
participate in this great law-making
conference OF the church. which
meets only once every four years.
A number OF important questions
are to come up for consideration. One
of these is proposition to restore
the tine limit of pastors Eigh,
years ago the time limit was removed
1t was then and has since been uni
versally endorsed by the laymen OF
the church. Ambitious ministers,
however. who think that the best pull
pits will not be open TO them because
the congregations will elect 10 keep
pastor as long as he suits them,
are opposed TO the removal OF the
time limit Nothing will probably
stir up so much interess and feeling
as a proposition to restore the time
limit.
Another question that will come
up for action, is whether or not the
presiding elders shall be elected by
the annual conference or be appointed
by the bishop as is now the case
The main objection lodged against
this. is that it leads to church poll
tics and favoritism
Another question. which has arous-
ed a great deal of discussion and wide
interest, is whether or not bishops
shall preside over the same confer
ence for a period of four years IN
stead OF presiding as now over COZ
ference and departing 10 another,
perhaps not returping to preside over
the conference for years.
Race bishops IS another question
that will come up for consideration
though if seemed to be doomed in adj
vance to be answered in the negative.
While Methodism in the South, es-
oecially. has favored colored bishop
for presiding over the coiored confer
ence. yet they would not submit TO
colored bishop presiding over them.
An effort will also be made to re-
peal the forbidding amusements- An
effort was made along this line at the
last conference, but although IT was
defeated then it is said that 1t will be
stronger this time than before. 1t is
argued that it has become an inoper-
at:ve rule, Mehodists the country over
attending theatres, dancing and play
ing cards, just the same as members
of other churches do, and therefore
il is argued, the rule against these
things ought to be abolished.
