MRS. LOUISA KINDLE
DIES LAST NIGHT

Mrs. Louisa Dramstadt Kind1e, one of

ness OF two and one half years of a
cancer.
The funeral VIII be held from the
family residence Sunday afternoon
from the family residence at 1 O'Clock.
The remains will then be taken TO The
F'riedens' vangelical church, 2S9 Indi-
ana avenue, where services will be held

WHAT THE NORTH
SIDE WANTS BADLY
Who Will Take Initiative
and Run Risk of Being
Called Glory Seeker?

The people of the north side who
would like to see that section of the
city grow and prosper along with the
rest of the town are becoming i'm
patient for some activity
There are a number of important
matters which must be taken up and
settled, and yet there seems to be no
one to take the initiative. Any one
who does get active according to a
well-known business man, rs regarded
as glory seeker and is turned down.
The north side wants:
1. A deep sewer that will adequately
drain the whole north side.
2. The school board to purchase an
entire block of ground for school pur-
poses before the ground becomes too
expensive for a playground park.
). The parking of Chicago avenue so
that the beauty of the north side will
come 60 be recognized and it viii no
longer be considered the eyesore OF the
town.
4. The opening of Johnson street and
the building of a viaduct connecting 1t
with Sohl street and Oakley avenue.
5. The south shore line to extend its
Indiana Harbor cars to the north side
at once
1t is understood that a meeting OF
citizens is likely to. be called in the
near future to take up these matters.
If the North Side Improvement asso-
citation does not take the initiative, an
Independent lot of citizens will.

CONFERENCE IS

A conference between union labor
leaders and the city council, sitting as

viding for bridge ribhts for the COM

should be. The clause is the one that
was embodied in the franchise by the
board of public work at the request OF

News
Who IS responsible for the condi-

the caption under which the Financial
News arraigns Judge Gary, the head of
the steel trust, for pleading to improve
conditions of humanity, in an address
made last week at New York dinner.
But who has furnished these den1a-
gogues with their ammunition? Have
these denagogues plundered the mass
es? Have they created oppressive
trusts? Are they the same men who
for years have defied and circumvented
the laws Of the land? Have they en-
riched themselves enormously by rop-
ing money-savers into fraudulent cor
porations and stocks of fictitious value?

pany, on which the manipulators made
fortunes and the investors last them?
Were political and newspaper dema-
gogues behind the watering of the
United States Steel corporation to the
extent of several hundred million OF
dollars and was ii they who for years
went on making additional millions by
marking the steel shares up and DOWN.
Did these demagogues, whom Judge
Gary arrafgns. wreck the Could rail-
roads and caused the public losses that
go into several hundred million of dol
lars? Were those demagogues the men
who within a few years have become
many time millionaires by exploiting
credulous public?

frank as to answer these questions?

HONAN GIVES
HIS OPINION
Rules on Question Of Audit
| ors Who Want Extra Pay.

Attorney General Honan has given
an unofficial opinion to A. B. Easter
ling, county auditor at Kokomo, Ind.
in which he declared that it was not
the intention of the Legislature that
the county auditors should be paid ex-
ira for making out assessors books. 1t
is expressly the auditors duty to make
out the assessors books in regard to
lists OF lands and similar properties In
the year when the real estate is as
sessed, the opinion declares, while 1t
probably is the duty of the assessor
to make out his own lists in other
years The opinion asserts that the
law is not clear on that point.

evidence by the large amount of busi-
