TAX COMMISSIONERS
TO DECIDE MATTER
G. & 0. Railroad Contends
That Taxes Are Too
High.

The state tax commission held con-
ference with County Assessor Math-
ews, Trustee Porterfield and Boston
Township Assessor Walter Dill, rela-
tive to the objections of the Chesa-
1eake & Ohio railroad officials to in
creased taxes placed upon the road
The meeting was held at Indianapo-
lis. No definite action was taken by
the state officials. 1t is commended by
the railroad officers tina the assessed
valuation of the road is too high.
County Assessor Mathews believes
the valuation has been too low, and
after a personal investigation last fall
raised the tax valuation on the road
in Boston township $4,000. It was
appraised by railroad officials and the
statement handed to the assessors last
year, the appraisement showing less
than one mile of track in the township.
According to the measurement of the
assessors there are over three miles
of road in the township. A decision
will be handed down by the tax COM
mission within a few days it is ex-
pected.

WASHINGTON, D. c.,

WASHINGTON. D. c.. May s.
Viscount Chinda, the Japanese ambas-
sador. today visited Secretary Bryan
at the latter's residence and presented
to him the formal protest from Toxic
against the passage OF the alien land
bill in California. The representatives
of the two governments were closeted
together for more than an hour. Sec
rotary Bryan promised Viscount Chin
da that his objection to the bill would
receive full consideration at the hands
of this government and that 1t would
be brought to the attention of the
president and his cabinet. Later in
the day Secretary Bryan informed the
president that he does not think there
is any use of appealing to Governor
Johnson not to sign the bill. Mr. Bry-
an states that there are flaws in the
bill which the courts can cause to
nullify its provisions, and thereby pre-
vent any difficulty with Japan.

There shall be no mutual understand
ing and working agreement between
party organization men, as has been
the case in the past.
Every candidate in the coming city
primary, regardless of party, can be
assured that the entire board will
count his vote and that he will get
exactly the strength that Is rightly his.
1t has been easy in the past for the
organization men of one party and the
organization men of the other party
in the primary to separate when II
comes to vote counting, and for each
organization for itself. to fix up re-
suits to suit the desires of that or
ganization and to fix the organization
states, Republican and Democratic
THAT game is all off this year With
three parties represented on the
board, and with Progressives insist
ing, as they will insist. that the whole
three-party election board must count
every vote cast and report 1t as cast,
there can be no collision of organiza-
tons for slate making purposes. 1t
means simply a square deal for all at
the primary"

HONEST PRIMARIES
Fair Play Wanted By Mem
bers of oBard.
BY 3. r. iNmAN.

INDIANAPOLIS. May S.-That the
primaries in different parts of Indiana
during recent years have not been rep
resentative of the honest vote cast for
the several candidates, is too well
known to require comment here. The
fragrant frauds that have been perpe
trated in indianapolis, Terre Haute and
other municipal centers by the two
old parties, have been revolving to
the sense of honor and common de
cency of men of all parties who have
been in close touch with the situation
1t is not claimed that Progressives
are necessarily different from other
men on general principles, but ii is
we'll known that the Progressive party
was founded as a protest against cor
rupt primaries and boss-ridden con.
ventions. The Progressive party ad
vocates the rule of the people through
fair and honest representation. In
every state in the union the Progress
sive party stands for honest primaries
and representative conventions. The
party has taken fair stand in favor
Of these needed reforms. Progressive
members of the primary and general
election boards, knowing that these
members are pledged to an honest
count and fair play for every one who
is connected with the several boards
The words of Elias d. Salisbury
who was recently made a member of
the primary election board of Indian,
apolis by order of the court after the
Republicans had made An effort to
dominate the board in defiance to the
statutes, will be read with eager inter.
est by all who appreciate honest pri-
maries.
Mr.. Salisbury says:
Each voter is entitled to one vote
and to no more, and each voter is en-
titled under the law and in justice to
have his vote counted and reported as
he cast it. This means that at the
coming city primary the election board
in each precinct will sit together and
act together in the county of the votes,
and that all the members Of each pre-
cinct election board will act together
in the counting of all the votes cast
for all Of the candidates of all the
parties.
This is the clear intent Of the pri-
mary law. Otherwise it has no safe
guards at all. It is to be the policy of
Progressive judges and clerks on the
primary election boards in the pre-
cincts to insist and to see that the
law is carried out fully and fairly This
is plain Progressive first principle.
There shall be no drawing of into
corners in the polling places the night
OF the primary, men of each party
counting that party's own vote and
reporting to suit its board members.
There shall be no careless or evil &C
quiescence by one political party in
the fraud and cheating of another.

"O'Hara and another man with two
women were in a Chicago hotel for
three days"
The names under which they are
alleged to have registered were found
ton. Mr.. o'Hara was in Chicago at the
time and asserted today that he could
prove by competent witnessed that he
was not at the hotel mentioned in the
affidavit.
The charge placed against Sullivan
today was made by b. NJ. Coan. chief
investigator of the white slave commit
tee. 1t alleges that Sullivan had threat
ened to produce affidavits rejecting
on the lieutenant governor and mem
bers Of the vice committee IL the inves-
tigators invaded Springfield. Coan tes-
titled that Sullivan said, your commit
tee had better stay away from Spring
field. If you don't we will put IL out of
business and the senate will be minus
a lieutenant governor. There are 9TH
er places besides Springfield. We have
affidavits made by women against
members of the committee"

Crushed by 4 caddie.

1T is not always safe TO fish for
compliments" says a Washington
man. who travels quite a bit, and !
recently learned a lesson in this regard
from a caddie attached to a golf club
near this town.
Il was going round the links one
afternoon and making a dreadful ex.
hibition of myself. I cid not. how.
ever, know that my caddie was fully
aware of this, as he seemed so bliss
fully unconscious that anything was
wrong. He was a nice. freckled little
Irishman, and took quite a fancy to
him, especially as never a hint came
from him that was doing badly. At the
end of the round, in the hope of .
Jolly from the lad, ! ventured TO OBJ
serve:
I've been travelling for the last
two months. and am dreadfully out oi
practice. That's why I'm in such bad
form today
ITO which the caddie calmly re
piled: "Oh. then ye've played before

LED HORSE AND DREW BUGGY.
Three Lads Upset on Guilford Road
and Went Down Embankment.

Three youngsters who were driving in
ID Concord buggy were upset down a bank
on the Guilford road Sunday, when their
horse took fright at a passing automo-
bile. The entire outfit went down the
bank, breaking the harness, but the horse
was not hurt and the buggy was not
damaged. A few scratches on the face
of the smallest of the three boys was the
extent of the injuries. The harness
was. so damaged that they could not
hitch up the horse again and they had a
long walk home, two of the boys drag
ging the wagon and the other leading the
horse.
