QUIET FOLLOWS A
NIGHT OF R|0TING
Disorders At Salem, ILL.,,
Were Caused BY Assault
Made Upon a Girl.
(Na tional News Association)

SALEM, ILL.,, March 15.--With state
troops, commanded by Adult General
Dickinson, who arrived at 2 o'clock
this morning, patroling the streets
here, quiet today followed last nights
riot1ng. Every precaution has been ta-
ken by the civil and military authori-
ties to prevent fresh outbreaks. A
heavy guard has been thrown around
the Jail where Thomas Sullens, accus-
ed of attacking the daughter of for
mer Judge c. n. Holt, and Ernest Har-
rison, said to have melted the attack,
are incarcerated. In the tenderloin dis
trict of the city where rioters last
night raided blind pigs" burned pro-
perty belonging to Harrison and emp
tying whiskey and beer into the gut
ter a special guard has been establish
ed.
number of persons who took part
in the raids are nursing injuries to-
day. At one time set on fire by the ri
oters barrel of whiskey exploded and
number of those in the crowd were
burned. A mans arm was broken by a
flying hoop. Although the crowds have
not gathered on the streets this morn
ing. there is an undercurrent of ex-
citement here that has given the au-
thorities cause for worry.
Feeling against Harrison and Sui
lens has been intensified and it is fear
ed that even in spite of the presence
of state troops an attempt may be
made to rush the Jail and lynch the
two men.
The cause of the outbreak was in
dignant at the act of Sullens who ad-
mitted attacking Dorothy Holt, Is
years old. The girl told her father of
the affair. She said she was seized by
Sullens as she started home from a
moving picture show, dragged her
nearly two miles to the slaughter
house and then attacked her. The next
morning she escaped and made her
way home.
Sullens asserted that he had been
urged to the deed by Harrison who
promised him SIS and bottle of booze
Sullens also asserted that Harrison
told him of a plan to kidnap Holt's
young son.
When the news of the attack be-
came known a mob started to the Jail
and demanded that the sheriff surren-
der the prisoners. A request for troops
was at once sent out and they were
rushed to the scene. During the even
ing men from nearby towns arrived
to help the lynchers. Rev. c. L. Peter
son, pastor of the Salem Methodist
church, led the mob toward the resort
district and aided in the raids on
blind tigers"
Harrison was angry at Holt, who is
prosecuting attorney, for his efforts to
unravel the mystery of the murder of
Robert Miller. The investigation is
said to have implicated Harrison
Holt was i'll in bed when told of the
attack His daughter is in a serious
condition.
The rioters finally were dispersed
by the troops.

Asserts School Board Would
Commit objectionable Act
If They Rejected Teachers
Retirement Plan.
ANSWER is GIVEN
BY THE PROFESSOR
No Local Instructor Would
Take Advantage of Retire
ment Provisions in the
Law, He Declares. y

That the members of the Richmond
school board would be committing an
objectionable sin if they rejected the
teachers pension law as applied to the
Richmond public schools is the opin-
ion of Prof. D. D. Ramsey of the
Whitewater school.
Whether the law will apply to the
Richmond schools has not been deter
mined, as yet, as attorneys are now
working on the proposition of finding
out with whom it is optional whether
it is accepted here. or not. The subject
will be broached to the teachers of the
schools at their meeting to be held
next Saturday. The meeting will prob
ably be held in the high school build
ing.
Not To Take Advantage.
Prof. Ramsey does not believe the
teachers will take advantage of the
fact that according to the law, a per-
son who teaches in the local schools
for twenty years can retire from the
service of the local schools, receive a
pension, and move to another county
and be employed in the service of an
other county as a teacher. The teach
ers who are employed here are resi-
dents Of the city who will always
make Richmond their home, accord
ing to Prof Ramsey.
According to the indianapolis pen
sion law the teachers are compelled to
retire after they have taught a GER
tain number of years. The teachers of
Richmond can teach for life unless
retired by the school board, according
to the act which affects this city.
The bill is far from satisf | tory to
the members of the local sIrd and
one member believes it will tend to
rid Richmond of some of it's most USE
full teachers. The teachers would be
foolish to teach in this city, the mem
ber believes when they can retire on a
pension of $400, their salary being
$500.
Citizens Object.
Some citizens have demonstrated to
the members of the board against the
tax which will be imposed for the
maintenance of the retirement teach
ers fund. Though no united action has
oSCh euhCd Ny any ldA PdySiS VI tuC
city, individuals have objected very Sc
riously to the law. The law imposes
tax of two and one-half cents per $100
which will provide approximately $3,-
250 annually to be paid by the tax pay
ers for the fund. The teachers will pay
approximately $1,000 each year toward
the fund. The indianapolis law pro-
vides that the teachers pay two-thirds
of the fund while the law as provided
for the cities of the size of Richmond
the tax payers pay three-fourths of the
fund.
Prof. Ramsey explained why the In
dianapolis law was not amended to in
clude cities the size of Richmond. The
Terre Haute bill which was passed
was thoroughly understood by the leg
islators while it would have been nec-
essary to explain all the provisions of
the Indianapolis law to them he said
They decided to pass the Terre Haute
bill believing that it would remedy
the situation in smaller cities The bill
passed is inferior in every respect to
the Indianapolis law members of the
local school board believe.
