That Marion county has in William

general assembly In Columbus, n man
who is not content to sit idly by,
answer to roll call and vote when his
name is called is shown by the fol.
lowing article taken from Tuesdays
Cleveland Leader Accompanying the
comment upon Mr.. Smiths fighting
proclivities is n cartoon which pictures
him in bulldog chin and unruly hair
so characteristic of men with fighting
blood in their veins. The Leader article
follows:
"Ohio had her "Hell Roaring Jake ;
Smith wearing the star of q general
in the United States ARMY few years
ago. Today she has a Hell Raising
"Bilr" Smith in her own legislature
"Bll' Is as strenuous and as hard =
fighter In the halls of Legisla
ture as was "Jake" on THE field of
battle. One always KNOWS where
Bill Smith stands on every question
He's n Democrat, but he doesn't
crawl down the stone stairs OF the
State House to the executive Office to
ask Governor Harmon how to vote On
any question. He follows his own
Judgment and speaks his own mind
He doesn't seem to care whether he
hits partisan friend or foe, so long
as he thinks he Is right. He is called
William II. Smith in the Legislative
roster. and is n manufacturer at Ma
rion He isn't afraid of union labor
not the biggest corporation. He isn't
antagonistic to either, he declares, but
he insists neither shall tread on the
toes of the people. He got union Ia
Dor by the ears when he introduced Il
bill giving employers the right to hire
as many apprentices as they desired
He had his bill referred to the com
mittee on manufacturers and labor be-
fore which he fought for n favorable
report against the representations N
the trades unions. He was the first TO
lift his voice against the bin of his
Democratic seatmate, Representative
Elson, to permit telephone compan
les to consolidate In way that would
kill the effect of the Valentine anti
trust act. He Is q leader In the fight
to slaughter that measure and was
one of the few Democrats who signed
the pledge to vote against the passage
In any form until the Woods public
utilities bill was passed so that water
couldn't be poured into the stock OF
consultations which would follow the
enactment of the measure into law.
"He is the Democrat who wanted IL
favorable report on the utilities bill
from the committee on railroads and
telegraphs and he, Is for that measure
now. Mr.. Smith Is an impassloned
orator and fights cleanly. He roars
loudly when defending or opposing
measure before the House; smiles
when victorious and looks sour when
defeated
He is popular with his colleagues
on both sides of the House but all
dislike 1t when he takes part against
them in debate"

NEW lDEAFOR TAX FERRETING
Chicago Officials Watch Society Col
umns of Newspapers.

Chicago, July S.-Social leaders who
have been conspicuous for dress and
jewelry displayed at the grand opera
and other public functions may have
to enrich the county treasury material
ly if plans of the board of review ma
terialize. Summonses will be issued
for their appearance before the board
of review to show cause why they
should not be assessed on the gowns,
diamond tiaras, pearl dog collars and
necklaces that they are known to wear
at balls and festivals.
The reviewers have discovered a
unique method of ferreting out the
personal property of some of the
wealthy social leaders now taxed
nominal sums. Their method is to
read carefully the news in the society
columns and to file it away for future
reference, or until taxing time comes,
then it comes in handy in raising per-
sonal assessments.
