EXPRESS DISGUST
With LEGISLATURE
Township Trustees Pass Res
olutions at Meeting
Today.

At meeting of the township trus-
tees of Wayne county this morning a
motion was unanimously passed con-
demning the action of the legislature
in failing to pass laws which would
remedy the present conditions of the
townships about the state.
The following resolution was pass
ed: THAT we, the trustees of Wayne
county, express surprise and acknowl-
edge the misplaced confidence in the
achievements of the state legislature
trustees"
Many bills were presented to the
state assembly which would have rem
edied the present conditions in Wayne
county as we'll as other counties
throughout the state The officials
have failed to provide new road laws
which the officials want and are con-
templating the passage of laws which
will be more detrimental than the
present one, the trustees believe.
Wayne township trustee Howarth
presented resolution, filled with ac-
rimony, to the trustees which was
later amended to the resolution passed.
The resolution read: Resolved that
the trustees of Wayne county go in a
body to Indianapolis, March 10. and
extend vote of thanks to the legisla-
ture officials for the kind attention
that was shown them by the members
of the executive committee now in
session"
80
to Indianapolis for the purpose of at
tempting to influence the legislature
to pass bills which will change mat
ters to more satisfactory condition
in the county.

Sixty-six men were drowned early to-
day when the German torpedo boat de-
stroyer S-178 was rammed and sunk off
Helgoland Island by the cruiser Yorck.
Fifteen men and two officers were res
cued.
The disaster occurred in the North
Sea during night maneuvers of the
German navy. The ships were maneuv-
ering in the dark without lights.
The SITS was cut in two and sank
Immediately.
Emperor Wilhelm, who was at Will

er amidships.
There was a crash OF steel on steel
ately afterwards the shouts of the
crew of the destroyer rose upon the
darkness. The York Immediately flash
ed signals that an accident had hap
pened and turned her searchlight upon
the damaged destroyer which was all
but submerged. Lights sprung up all
over the fleet and wireless messages
were sent to Cuxhaven giving notice
that a disaster had occurred.
Boats were lowered from the nearby
warships but before they could reach
the scene of the disaster the river tor
pedo boat had disappeared and only
bits of floating wreckage marked the
graveyard of the vessel.
Several dead bodies were picked up.
From the suddenness of the accident
it was evident that many members of
the crew of the SITS were caught and
drowned like rats in trap.
Word of the disaster was sent to
Emperor William and Admiral Won
TirpitZ, imperial minister of marine.
A rigid official inquiry was at once
ordered.

GOVERNOR ANSWERS
A CARN|SHEE BILL
Characterizes kilograms as
"Bulldozing" Taken
No Part.
National News Association

INDIANAPOLIS, March 5.-Govern-
or Ralston today issued statement
concerning the Weidler garnishee bill.
A food of kilograms were received by
the governor, stating that if the garni-
shee bill was defeated he would be
blamed for it. The governors state
ment declared that he had taken no
part either for or against the bill until
a few days ago when he told Speaker
Cook that it was a serious question
whether under present conditions the
garnishee bill should be handed down
on that particular day. The governor
stated that while he has his own opin-
ion regarding the bill he does not want
the house members to be influenced
thereby. He characterized the tele-
grams as "bulldozing" and said that
the spirit was not calculated to secure
his support of the garnishee measure.

Progressive Party in Rich
mond Will Shortly be Or
ganized for Coming City
Campaign.
MEMBERS OF PARTY
OPPOSED TO FUSION
Would Weaken the Organ
ization, is the Belief of
Rank and File-Plan for
Good Ticket.

1t is probable that some time next
week VIII Robbins, Progressive coun-
ty chairman, will issue call for pre-
cinct meetings, to be held probably on
the evening of March 20 or March 21.
At these meetings precinct commit
teemen will be elected, who few days
later will meet and elect city chair
man, vice chairman, secretary and
treasurer, and chairman for each of
the eight wards. All these officers
elected by the precinct committeeman
will compose the executive committee
of the Progressive city organization
and they will make arrangements for
the primary nominating election the
party will hold this coming spring
probably in May, to place a municipal
ticket in the field.
Chairman Robbins stated today that
he did not believe there was remote
chance for the Progressives of Rich
mond merging with another political
party to elect e. municipal ticket, nor
does he believe there is any chance of
the Progressives deciding not to place
ticket of their own in the field for
the purpose of supporting an independ-
ent ticket.
Every Progressive I have talked
with has informed me most emphati-
cally that he favors a Progressive city
ticket" said Mr.. Robbins. PERSONALLY
] believe it would be great mistake
if the Progressives fused with any
other party or kept out of the fight for
the purpose of lending support to an
Independent ticket. In the first place
either action would tend to weaken
our organization. In the second place
We could place splendid ticket in the
field and we are powerful enough to
insure it's election"
Mr.. Robbins stated that he would
have issued call for precinct meet
ings last month had it not been for
the primary bill pending in the legis-
lature. He said he was not familiar
with the provisions Of the bill passed
by the house and now before the SEN
ate, in consequence, does not know
how it provides for the calling of ward
township and precinct meetings. THE
only thing that l do know about the
bill is that it is not what the people
want" said Mr.. Robbins, who believes
that the Democratic legislature by its
reactionary legislation has been driv-
ing thousands of people into the ranks
of the Progressive party.

DR.. Stotelmeyer, of Hagers-
town Says He Has Had Or
ders Countermanded by
County Health Officer.
STRICT QUARANTINE
SHOULD BE ORDERED
Trustee Gives Many Instan-
ces in Which State Board
of Health Has Upheld His
Decisions in Cases.

Richmond is not alone in it's trouble
with the health officials in attempting
to have them enforce the laws of the
state board of health and Trustee
Charles |. Stotelmeyer of Jefferson
township believes County Health Off
Ger DR.. J. E. King is not enforcing the
health laws in Hagerstown.
At meeting of the, trustees this
morning at the court house, DR.. Stot-
elmeyer stated that Dr. King, as coun-
ty health officer, had disapproved OF
the appropriation asekd for by Stot.
elmeyer as city health officer of Ha-
gerstown. Stolelmeyer believes that a
strict quarantine should be maintained
in all cases of contagion and that
houses should be disinfected after per-
sons having the disease are dismissed
from quarantine.
According to the state laws as ex-
which patients with contagious dis
eases including measles, scarlet fever,
diphtheria, tuberculosis or typhoid fe-
yer should be disinfected after the re-
covery or death of the patient.
Acting according to these rules of
the state board of health DR.. Stotel-
meyer ordered two houses where per-
sons were living who were afflicted
with measles, disinfected after the pa
tients had been pronounced cured. A
bill was then presented to the town
board by the official to pay for the
work. Dr. Stotelmeyer believes that DR..
King interviewed, some members of
the town board and told them that the
bill was unnecessary and that dis
infection of houses where patients had
been living was unnecessary. The
board acting on the suggestion of the
county health officer then refused to
pay the bill.
Another instance which the trustee
cited was that the hackman which
hauls large number of children to
school has five members of his family
confined to their home with scarlet
fever. DIR. Stotelmeyer ordered him to
disinfect his clothes each day or stop
driving the hack. The driver did this
for two days and then appealed to the
county physician who is alleged to
have said it was unnecessary.
The Hagerstown physician commu-
nicated to the state board of health
what conditions were prevalent in the
township and received word that he
was doing right by having the houses
disinfected. The board upheld Dr. Stot-
elmeyer for his action, he maintains.
1t is alleged that DR.. King did not de-
mand a disinfection of any of the
houses where patients were maintain
ed suffering from measles.

himself requested the interview. The
presidnt expressed regret that he was
obliged to announce that il was his
duty to decline to see applicants for
office except where he himself invites
them, but stated that il was his pur-
pose to devote his time earnestly and
constantly to the business of the gov
ernment and the large questions of
policy that effect the whole nation.
The statement caused a great deal
of interest because ii is a contradic-
relative to maintaining an "open door"
