COLLECT ILL. CENTRAL TAXES
Charging that the Illinois Central
Railroad has lodged taxes on $780,
100000 during the last 25 years, At
torney-General Patrick-J: Lucey yes
terday filed suit against the road.
Lucey also names Roy West, Tom
Webb and Fred Block of the Board of
Review as cO-defendants.
In his complaint Lucey declares
that land acquired by the road since
1858, but particularly between 1889
and 1914, has never been listed or
taxed.
Lucey's charge is a serious indict-
ment of the manner in which big
corporations are allowed to get away
with their taxes. In addition to the
UntaXed land, the encouragement
says they were also allowed to get
away without taxation on stocks and
bonds which the l. C. brought from
other corporations.
The Board of Review will be called
on to explain their part in the pro-
Ceedings. Roy West, for years car
of the board, who has now decided to
step down and hand over his crown
to Ike Powell, who will be asked why
it is the mighty Illinois Central cor
poration can remain immune from
taxation.
Several months ago Lucey drag
ged the matter up before the Board
Of Review, but got very chilly re-
ception. The three members were
not bit impressed by his statement
that the state was getting skinned.
Finally high-priced Illinois Central
lawyers gave the board an excuse

of the window They said litigation
concerning the L c.. failure to pay
taxes was pending before the Illinois

Horses arc being purchased All

Horses are being purchased all
over the states, according 10 many Of
our exchanges, for var purposes in
the old world. While il is net a
breach or the severance of the neu-
trality pact. il is an evasion equal
unto the manner many of cur laws
are trampled under foot every Cay
La the year. If We owned a horse,
a good and gentle critter, We would
not sell him to such a fate. Better
the pillow and the harrow and the
peaceful rest in a quiet stall at even
tide than the blare of trumphets, the
shrieking of shells and the slaughter
ON foreign battle fields. There is no
longer even the traditional glory to
be won in war. it is mere butchery
and carnage, a regular shamble
where men and animals are alike
sacrificed on the altar of commercial
ism and the lust for gain and brutal
power. Oh, the shame of it.

Progressives Speak Here.

A fair sized audience greeted Hugh
McElroy, Progressive candidate for
governor, and Finis Bentley, pro-
gressive candidate for secretary of
state, at-the Fratefnal hall in this
city Saturday evening. Mr.. Bentley
was introduced by A. r. Fike, who
acted as chairman of the meeting.
Mr.. Bently stated that "the Re-
publican party was trying to belittle
the Progressives. in this campaign
through the press of the stase-8S
per cent Of the papers being owned
and controlled by politicians and
candidates who have large personal
fortunes, which gives them decided
advantages over the Progressives
who have no rich hackers and 10 a
party Of the people In every sense of
the term"
Mr.. Bentley reviewed at length
the conditions Of the Republican par
ty in Illinois, Kansas, Wisconsin,
New York, and Pennsylvania, point
ing out where it was impossible to
reform the party from within, stating
that Ia each of these states the
progressives have been eliminated

ticket this fall. referring in particu-
lar to Cannon and Mckinley Of Him
lois. Penrose of Pennsylvania and
Barnes. New York.
Afr. Bentley severely criticized
Governor Haines business admins
|tration accusing him Of playing poll
sics for reelection, and took him to
task for not acting sooner GA the
charges that had been made against
State Treasurer Allen. which had
been made by progressive candidates
tw months before any action was
taken by the governor and then not
until the bonding company sent their
examiner to examine the records.
He then asked the q nstion, eff the
progressives can uncover such a
state of affairs without being in Office
a day, what would they find if they
had entire charge of things" He
also made questioning reference to
the retention in Office of the State
examiner of records who passed
books as being all right.
Mr.. Bentley made strong appeal
for the voters to go to the polls on
5rd and vote for what
they believed vas right according TO
The dictates of the politicians.
Mr.. McElroy spoke upon state af-
:airs and stated that Governor
Haines, in making his campaign two
years ago, asked the voters to take
heir tax receipts to the polls with
hem, indicating and leading the
,eople to believe that the governor
gas responsible for high or low taxes.
That during Governor Haines adj
ninistration the tax have contin-
led to increase instead Of decreas-
ng. and that the present admins
ration has been the most expansive
NE in the history of the state; yet
Ar. Haines comes back and asks the
,eople to again support him. claim
ng that he has made good, and if
Increasing the burden of the tax
ayers is what he calls making good,
ar. Haines has certainly succeeded
hat far any way. MFR. McElroy
losed with strong appeal for the
lection of the Progressive ticket,
tating that the present administra-
ion had proven incompetent to han
lie the affairs of the state in he in
erests, or to the best advantage Of
az payers, but had been and is DOM
mated by special interests.

very important to all the people.

Steele has been affirmed in more
cases in proportion to the number
tried than any other district judge in
Idaho. The criminal laws have
been upheld and enforced, and the
civil litigation has been so satisfac-
