four flushing I'm the opinion OF f. l.
Turner, prosecuting attorney OF
trankln county. the man who sent
tbS etate house Erafters TO prison and
VINO n q candidate for the Republi-
an nomination for attorney general.
In Q speech at a Republican Progress
stve get-together meeting at Della
ware. tonight. Turner said that the
attempt TO collect taxes from Rookie
Teller was part of proceedings un-
der general code 5373 enacted years
ago and which he as prosecuting at
torney and many other prosecuting
attorneys and county auditors In Ohio
resorted TO long before Cox dreamed
Of the Warnes act. Turner charged
that the Warnes law has been put In
tAe special keeping OF w. l. Finley.
Gov. cox's political manager. and
act Ffnley's initials. although he was
not an official OF the state. had TO
appear on every voucher before the
states funds could be expended TO
fight the referendum. Turner further
charged that as dispenser OF Demo-
cratic pap Finley is paid $500 month
and he wants TO know where this
clared that by backing up with Iegis-
lation Mayor Bakers fads In Cleve-
land, Gov. Cox has compelled the
people OF Ohio TO pay thousands OF
dollars which they should not be
asked TO pay. The tax spenders are
running amuck." said Turner. and
the peoples hope lies In reunited
publicans and Progressives TO get to-
Rether. make every political pirate
walk the plank and name an I'M
bossed and independent ticket that.

The rule OF silence at the Ohio
penitentiary was lifted to-day by
Warden Preston Thomas and prison

while working. This rule had been

tablished years ago. II was believed
that n prisoners were allowed to talk,
hey would plan escapes.

DR. ". w. Carpenter. aged 70. a
former mayor OF Lancaster, died at
his home in that city to-day. He was
well known.
John ID. Fackler. a tax collector OF
Cleveland. to-day conferred with the
attorney general in regard to the Ell
ling bill. which amends the Warnes
tax assessor law by restoring the old
date. April !, as the time personal
property Is to be listed for taxation,
instead OF February I. Fackler was
afraid that this change would pre-
vent him collecting the taxes which
he says are due the state from John u.
Rockefeller. as Rockefeller has left
the state and would not be here for
taxation purposes on April l. Fackler
was convinced after much argument
that the Etling act cannot become eff
tective this. year and that property
listed on February I for taxation
stands. N necessary. Gov. Cox may
hold back the EtlinE amendment un-
I'll after the first OF April. The change
IN dates back TO April I was caused
by complaints made by farmers. who
preferred to have their property list
ed April ! instead OF February I. as
on the latter date they usually have
large number of horses on hand for
market purposes. which they bought
with notes. and which they have dis
posed OF by April 1.
