ROUTE INSPECTION
TO BE UNDERTAKEN

On next Wednesday the committee
on the proposed new traction line
will inspect the proposed route which
is to run from Portland, south through
Richmond, Liberty and Brookville to
Harrison, O. At this time the neces-
sary data IS to the prospective amount
of business, and arrangements for
meetings in the various towns along
the way will be arranged.
One of the important matters to be
decided on the trip is whether the line
will pass through Winchester or In
ion City. The rivalry between the two
towns is very keen, both being anxious
to be on the route Union City has
manifested the most interest. The Fed
eral Club at that place as we'll as sew
eral other organizations are diligently
at work arousing interest in the pro-
ject
The committee is very hopeful as
to the result of the trip. Up to the
present time $4,000 has been sub
scribed in stock, and just as soon as
preliminary plans are made and a
prospective rightof way secured. the
present capital will be greatly increas-

EXCURS|ON|STS IN
FIELD FOUR HOURS
G.. & 0. Travellers Disem-
barked by One Train Wait
in Stubble for Relief.

COURAGEOUS, objectionable" were
some of the mild statements address
ed to the c. & o. of Indiana by the ex-
cursionists who were "stung" yester-
day in an excursion to Cincinnati.
Last night as over three hundred men,
women and children were returning
home from a gay time in the Queen
City their train was halted three miles
south of Newkirk, where they were
notified that a freight train had been
wrecked DISSEMINATING from their
train, they were told that another
train on the other side of the wreck
would bring them to Richmond. The
conductor proceeded to take his train
back to Cincinnati, leaving the eXcur-
sionists stranded in oats stubble with
rag weeds for company.
But alas, no train. After making
themselves comfortable with oats
sheaves and bonfires the many pleas-
ure seekers kept their lonely mid
night vigil for over four lonely hours,
until after one o'clock, when the other
train hove in sight. They arrived in
Richmond at an early hour this morn
ing, tired and disguised with the
treatment which they had received.
No one was injured in the freight
wreck and the only damage was the
bursting of an oil tank on flat car.

O'Redr Approves Raise in Taxes.

One of the most fragrant viola
tions of campaign pledges was the
raid upon the taxpayers, organized
by Governor Wilson to cover up
his extravaganza, and carried into
effect under his orders, by his
Board of Equalization. Having
wasted more than one quarter of a
million dollars of the peoples
money in foolishly exploiting the
State militia, he paid the piper by
increasing the taxable value of
farm lands in two years, 500. 029,-
431.00. The burden, as usual,
fell upon the farmers, the very
people to whom Judge O'Rear is
now appealing for help, although
Governor Wilson's administra-
ton which was responsible for
this increase, meets with Judge
O'Rear's hearty commentator.
Governor McCreary asked
Judge O'Rear the direct question,
if he approved this raise of nearly
one hundred million dollars on the
farm lands of the State, and it
must be said to Judge O'Rear's
credit, that he was frank enough
TO admit that he did approve of it..
He said that his political advisers
had told him that it would be a
dangerous thing to endorse, but
that he thought it was lawful, and
and that he believed the Republi-
can officials acted honestly under
their oath of office.
1t logically follows that if
Judge O'Rear is elected Governor,
and runs the State in debt, as all
his Republican predecessors have
done, he will follow Governor
Wilson's method of emptying the
pockets of the farmers, because
his Board of Equalization has the
authority under the law to put any
burden on them that is necessary
to support the eXtravagances of
the administration.
