MAY RAISE SQUAD
BILE OVER TAFT
The Present State Chairman Does
Not Think the President Can
Carry Indiana.

| indianapolis, Ind, Feb. IA lively
squabble over the denomination of
President Taft is expected to develop
at today's meeting of the republican
state committee of Indiana. A state
chairman will be elected. and the
friends of Taft will seek to GUST Ed
win M. Lee, who recently declared
that he had canvassed Indiana and
had ascertained that President Taft
could not carry this state. Lee is a
Beveridge man and the state commit
tee as at present constituted was sup
posed to be a Beveridge organization,
but at its meeting on December 27 a
resolution was passed declaring that
Chairman Lees statement was not to
be taken as representing the senti-
ment of the committee as whole.
This apparent reputation Of Bever-
idge by his own organization caused
joy in the Taft camp, but it is prob
able that another attempt will be
made today to uphold Lee in his anti
Taft declaration. In his statement
Chairman Lee said:
President Taft can not carry In
diana. If he is the republican nomi-
nee our fight will be lost before gun
is fired. AS one of the original friends
of Taft, who labored for him night
and day, have been driven to this
knowledge with extreme reluctance
In answer to this statement the
state committee passed the following
resolution:
rResolved, That the republican state
central committee hereby disclaims
that Chairman Lee in his recent inter
views on political conditions in In
diana was speaking for the COMMITTEES
as an organization or the individual
members thereof"

She flooded and sank, drowning the

SIXTY THOUSAND DOLLAR
FIRE IN AAVAs0TA
Our NeIghbor Suffers Heaviest Loss
by Fire In Several Years.

At 3:15 this morning fire was dis
covered in the Brosig hardware build
ing on Washington avenue. Under the
same roof the Palace Pharmacy drug
store had front space, and up to
this writing 1t is mooted question
as to where the fire originated. First
ones on the scene said the smoke was
pouring from upstairs windows. yet
none seemed to be quite sure where
the principal blaze was located.
This is one of the principal blocks
in the city and the damage is exceed
ingly heavy to a number from smoke
and water, etc.
The Brosig building and contents
and the Palace Pharmacy were total
loss. The T. E. Bowen Drug Company,
next door, occupied the Vaughan build
ing. The stock is almost a total loss
and the damage to the building will
be considerable. The marlborough
building, further east, was occupied
by Fortt Bros. The building probably
sustained damage to the roof and the
awning was torn away.
The big plate glass windows Of the
Citizens National Bank, one hundred
feet across the street, were shattered
by the heat and explosions from vola-
tiles and bursting shells and powder
in the hardware store and drug store.
The fire was also hot enough to set
fire to the banks awning several
times.
By heroic efforts the fire boys
stopped the progress of the flames at
the Vaughan building. Mr.. Vaughan's
store building in rear of the hardware
store also stopped the fire from eating
its way to the Lindley stable, which
seemed doomed.
While this fire was the worst for
years, much luck attended it. Had the
building been constructed of brick
there is no question but what the
whole of North Washington avenue
would have been wiped out to Nations
store. The solid rock walls held the
flames in check and gave the fire COM
pany a fighting chance, though two
thirds of the time the water pressure
was not strong enough to throw the
water to the second-story windows. 1t
was luck, pure and simple, that saved
that entire street from destruction.
Bosig's loss will probably total
s35, 900. building and stock. DR.. EN-
ory perhaps was caught for $4,000.
The Bowen Drug Company's loss is
hard to estimate, likewise the damage
TO the Vaughan building.
DIR. P. Ward Caine and DR.. J. S.
Hooper had offices above the Brosig
building and both lost all their instru-
ments and office fittings. Mr.. Barber
and his father-in-law roomed in the
building and their loss was also total.

County School Books

We frequently hear complaint
about the heavy cost of school
books. The following facts shown
by the records of the auditor Of
this county should relieve every
fair. minded man and woman of all
worry on this subject. The books
used by all the rural schools and
about half the town schools of the
county are ordered by the county
auditor and distributed to the var
ious stores that sell them. The
auditors records show that during
the past five years there has been
ordered by the county school books
to the amount of $4754.36. At
the time of the last annual settle
ment ION Jan. 31st 1912 with the
book stores there were over $3.50
worth of books on hand. Very few
books are sold after that date and
before Sept. LIST. So it is very
safe to say hat not more than
$4,000 worth of books have been
sold for use in the rural and town
schools using the adopted books
the past five years. Allowing Tor
the 1919 profit which the book
stores receive for handling, the
total cost of these books to the
parents of the children was not
more than $4,000 for the entire
county for five years. The records
Of the county superintendent Of
flee of this county show that the
average enrolment of the schools
of the county each year is about
5000 pupils. 21O0 of these are en-
rolled in the rural schools and
about half of those of the town
schools use the regularly adopted
books, making a total of $500 pu-
pills in Bon Homme county who
have been supplied with text books
the past five years for $4,000. This
means that the average cost per
pupil for text books in this county
for five years has been $1.75 or an
average of $0.35 per pupil per year
To many this may seem almost
unbelievable, but nevertheless it is
a fact as shown by the records of
the county. Of course this does
not include pencils, scratch paper,
tablets, etc.
