CASTLES ASSAILANT
ARRESTED YESTERDAY
Frank Russo, Rival Ped
der, Is Taken on Charge
of Attempted Murder.

Suspected of having attempted to as
sassinate Leonard Castle of Hammond
early yesterday morning as he was
driving along 14Sth street. on the East
Chicago line. Frank Russo. fruit ped
der, residing a SAT State Line street,
was arresed yesterday afternoon by
Officers Bunde and Einsele on charge
of assault and battery with intent to
Kill and placed under 81. 000 bonds. The
murderous attempt was made by firing
ten shots from Savage automatic
pistol nine Of the steele capped bullets
whizzing by young Castles body, while
one took effect in Castles hand, cut
ting off one finger and decorating the
others.
So far Russo positively refuses to
say anything that will implicate him
in the shooting. but suspicion rests
heavily upon his shoulders and the po-
lice are confident that they have the
right man under arrest Although
Castle is only 19 years old he is also
engaged in the fruit business. and 1T
is said that the jealousy existing be-
tween the two men caused the shoot
ing 1t also developed that the men
had quarrel about five weeks ago
and at that time Russo threatened to
10 the lad harm.
The shooting was done from ambush,
and although tho revolver is not In
possession of the police 1t is a positive
fact that no other gun could fire zen
successive shots than a Savage auto
matte. Castle was driving along 14Sth
street in a covered delivery wagon and
when the first shot was fred he saved
himself from death by leaning back
on the seat. All the shots struck
within a radius Of nine inches. which
proves that the v-ould-be assassin was

1t will be seen that this department
has been made almost self-sustaining
during the first year of my administra-
| ton. Its receipts have been increased
more than fourfold and its expenditures
only IL per cent. The receipts of the
Mining Department for the last six
months are estimated, but the estimate
| is based on work already done.
In this connection the significant fact
may be noted that all receipts in this
department come from fees for the in
spection of mines, which indicates that
the mines are being inspected as never
before, and every effort made to protect
and preserve human life.
So much for the prisons and the agr-
cultural and mining departments which
collect revenue. The other departments
under my administra ton, such, as that
of the Superintendent of Public lnstruc-
ton and the Adjutant Generals office,
which collect no revenue, have been ad-
ministered with the same high degree
OF economy and efficiency, by men espe-
cially trained for the work of their re-
spective offices.
Yod may therefore set it down as a
fact that the man or newspaper who
makes the assertion that my administra-
ton has been eXtravagant is either an
ignoramus OF common campaign liar.
Legislative Appropriations.
Occasionally you will hear it said that
the Legislature was extravagant in the
appointment of junketing committees
and the raising of official salaries. Very
true, but | advocated the raising of only
two salaries in the general appropriation
bill, those of the two chaplains of tie
state prisons, whose niggardly compen-
sation YVES reproach to the state. In
special BILL drafted by myself, the sal
airy of the Shop ard Factory Inspector
was raised $500. One of these increases
was for the benefit of the unfortunate
convlcts and the other for the men,
women and children working in the fac
tories of the state. More work has been
done and greater results accomplished
by the Shop and Factory Inspector under
my administration than any other in the
history of Tennessee. As to the other
salary raises, some of them were de-
served, most of them were not, and none
of them was necessary, and l so said IN a
message to the Legislature. Not another
public official in the state lifted his voice
against these salary increases.
The Comptroller, that mogul of Regular
Democracy, whose representative was the
sole financial adviser of the Legislature
when the appropriation bill was passed,
showed himself to be true economist In
the matter of salaries. Note the salaries
in his office fixed by the Legislatures OF
1909 and 1911:

office, and part of his political ma
chine During the last Legislature the
Comptroller wanted the proposed auditor
made a part of his force. Then, of
course, the Comptroller's office and the
record of the back-tax attorneys would
have been automatically whitewashed,
and this is exactly the reason why Nc.

administration. The superiority of our
showing is not, therefore, due to a diff
terence in conditions.
Another thing to remember is that
every ton of coal taken out of the mines
has been hauled further than any ton
taken out during McNiillins and Patter-
sons terms, and the haulage is big
part of the cost of production. We are
not hauling coal three miles, and our
average haul is about one mile and a
half.

They raised everything but Oue clerk
and the office cat. This must have been
a hasty oversight.
twill be recalled that the Comptroller
had already tried to give an unlimited
raise of salary to his back-tax cOllectohs
in bill which | vetoed.

Mining Department
There is only one other department
under the control of my administration
that collects revenue. This is the Min
ing Department. Comparing its receipts
and expenditures for the first year of my
administration and the last year of Pat
terson's administration shows the fol-

lgregone conclusion that little or nothing
could be paid on the bonded debt during
the current two years. Senator Nc
Alister was entirely correct in this state
ment.
December 90, 1906, just at The begin
ming of Pattersons first term, there was
valance in the Treasury of $1,163,-
1908, and December 20, 1908, at the
beginning of his second term, there was
a surplus of $1,132, 900.40 AT the end
of his second term there was only $317,-
900 in the Treasury, and 100000 of this
belonged to the Normal Schools.
During the last term of Patterson the
sinking fund payments were partially
discontinued under the suspension reso-
luton already referred to, but the
amount of $3.50, 3S6.63 was paid into the
sinking fund and applied to the bonded
debt. The surplus which had been in the
Treasury for two years before his first
term began made this possible, for, as
matter of fact, there was expended
during his last term SS15,630.S1 more
than was collected. The surplus went
into the bonded debt and the various APP
preparations made by the Legislature.
There being no surplus at the begin
ming of the present biennial period all
appropriations must beSpaid out of the
current revenues.
The general and miscellaneous appro-
priations made BY the last Legislature,
while extravagant in some particulS rs,
DID not greatly exzee5 ncoss Of 1904

Without this increase it is evident
that several hundred thousand dollars
could have been paid on the bonded debt
The Legislature evidently concluded that
it was better to have the reformatory
now, before any more little children
were sent to the penitentlary, and to
care for the old soldiers now, before the
white horse and his rider had carried
them all away. If Governor McMilhn
takes a different view of these matters,
let him say so. If not, let him cease to
misrepresent the facts, and admit, as
SeDator McAlister did, that nobody was
