But the assessors and the executive
council who raise the valuations do
not seem to have any understanding
with the city councils, school board
and board of supervisors relative to
cutting down the levies. Hence any
plan to raise valuations in Iowa to
their proper standing, and to make
assessments according to state law
has been opposed. The property
owner cannot be blamed. He has no
fine-haired theories about taxation
The only interest he has is the
amount of cash he must hand over
If all property in Iowa was assessed
this year at it's actual worth and the
levies made just big enough to raise
the same amount of taxes raised
in 1912, or even reasonable in
crease the people would have no
cause to object. Most people would
be paying less taxes. But to boost
valuations and not lower the rates
is bound to result in a revolt.

Rioting in Indianapolis Continues
Business Men Asked to
Help.
ATTORNEY PEARSON FILES SUIT
Alleges Failure to Run Cars Since
Friday Violates the
Franchise.

indianapolis, Ind, Nov. 4.--The
third day of the strike of employees
of the Indianapolis Traction and
Terminal company ended last night
with no attempt to move the cars
which have stood idle in the barns
since late Friday night. Charges
that partisan politics caused the po-
lice to fail to give the traction COM
pany sufficient protection to run it's
cars were made by candidates for Of
flee at today's election, while an Or
der of Sheriff Portteus, a democrat,
to swear in 200 citizen deputies re-
suited in the charge being made that
he had summoned the men chiefly
to keep active republicans from
working at the polls.
The strike situation was further
complicated late yesterday afternoon
when a suit for the annullment and
forfeiture of the traction company's
franchise and the appointment of
receiver for the company was filed in
the circuit court. The suit was filed
by Attorney Albert G.. Pearson, act
ing as taxpayer and alleges that
the company by it's failure to operate
cars for the last three days has vio-
lated it's franchise contract with the
city. The summons in the suit was
made returnable Nov Is.
After day in which numerous
minor riots were reported, Thomas
Carlton, chauffeur, was shot and
fatally wounded while watching a
crowd of sympathizers making an at
tack on the Louisiana car barns
where the strikebreakers are housed
President Todd, of the traction
company, Superintendent j. j. Ma
honey, and Martin Hyland, superin-
tendent of police, were bruised by
missiles near the terminal station
and later Todd and Mahoney were
attacked while passing the state
house and forced to take refuge in
street car to escape shower of
bricks and stones until mounted po-
lice cleared the state house lawn.

Two Eeroines.

Times Republican: A girl 10
years old slew a panther away in
the Canadian backwoods not long
ago and her picture and that of the
panther have been running through
the newspapers ever since. 1t was a
big thing for modern girl to do. 1t
takes nerve to face panther alone
and come out of the meeting victor
ious.
There is another girl who never
has had her picture in the paper
whose nerve and whose victory de-
serve recognition even more than
the Canadian. She has defended
herself successfully through even
greater danger and against animals
quite as cruel and cunning and
bloodthirsty as any panther that ev-
er prowled the woods of Canada. She
had her own living to make and made
1t. Without protection she start
ed through a jungle as deep as any
northern forest. Grey wolves and
panthers trailed her. She saw eyes
glazing from every side. Motherless
and worse than fatherless she held
her way and won. She worked at
domestic service among the panthers,
did office work among the wolves,
and she son through safe and sound.
Her trail ran through the streets of
city but was more dangerous and
called for Greater courage and stead
fastness than the long trails of the
northern woods. ...
There are thousands of girls whose
pictures never adorn the front pages
Of the newspapers whose bravery
and unfiinching purpose deserve the
highest recognition. Thousands of
these girls who have successfully de-
Tended themselves against wild
beasts Of whom neither pictures of
the beasts or the heroines have been
printed. Courage and fortitude are
not confined to the wilderness of
Canada nor are all the dangerous
and predatory beasts denizens Of the
big woods.
The girl who defends herself is
heroine wherever her fight is made
and won.
