and bloodshed at the polls. and climaxed
by Interference on a grand scale by the
United States district court, citizens OF
this city today pledged themselves 10
cleanse Terre Haute OF its biackened

This resolve was spffened by the
knowledge that. from the mayor down

fraud the United States Government at
the polls. and that Vigo county's judge
and sheriff were similarly indicted. In
all ITO Terre Hautians have been ar

ment who are under Federal indictment

dent OF the board OF works: George En-
mer z. Talbot, city controller; Edward
Holler, chief of police; John Nugent,
former night police chief; Thomas
Smith. Judge of the city court: police
men and other employees of the city.
Circuit Judge Eli II. Redman, OF Vigo
county, and Sheriff Dennie Shea did not
escape the Federal dragnet.
Standing out as the principal fig
ure in the big probe Is Frank c. Daley,
recently appointed United States dis
trict attorney for the Indiana dis
trict. He personally conducted the
Investigation before the grand jury
applying to the Terre Haute situa-
ton. the conspiracy clause. under

in the indictments. The complete list
to approach 100.
The bad state of affairs at Terre

than. twenty-five Republicans.
