Cook county, has done heavy job
of hard work and hard fighting for
the people of Cook county.
Newspapers have lied, sneered and
struck savagely trying to destroy
him. Again, they have kept silence,
shut their columns to big news tell
ing their readers that this prosecu-
ting attorney is battling as powerful
a gang of millionaires as ever cheat
ed the people out of tax money.
Here's the lineup: Schools run
cheap. Teachers threatened with a
71a per cent cut in pay. Public Ii
brary run cheap, ranking lover than
New York, Philadelphia, Boston or
San Francisco in per capita expense.
Terrible shortage of tax money when
ever any scheme for unemployed
benefit or new play space for chill
dren or anything else is up for deci-
sion.
Along comes states attorney and
puts up as desperate fight as could
possibly be made to force taX-dodg-
ing millionaires to come across with
more tax money. And the trust
newspapers kept by Big Business adj
vertising lie, sneer and strike saw
agely in beittlement of an official
who is after having the revenue act
mean just what it says.
Year by year now for three years
Hoyne has forced from julius Ros-
enWald, the Sears-Roebuck head,
higher amount of personal property
tax. In 1912 when Hoyne took Office
Rosenwald paid taxes on $125,OOO of
personal property.
Hoyne said: I'm going to en-
force the tax laws up to the handle"
RosenwaId's personal property sched-
uIe jumped from $125,ooo in 1912 to
$2,51o,o76 in 1918.
Assessors found Hoyne a riddle. He
had them guessing. So in 1914 the
assessors went out and valued Ros-

HIS FIGHT ON TAXDODGERS

atty because Rosenwald didn't file a
schedule as the law requires.
Roy o. West, Fred Block and Tom
Webb, the board of review, split this
assessment, cutting it to $3,766, 464.
At that, it was a raise over the year
before.
So it's gone higher every year. And
yesterday it went still higher, the
personal property being valued at
$4,OOO,00O This is $233,626 over
1914. ...
Thousands of automobiles never
before on the tax books are on this
year. Assessor Dave Pfaelzer says
where he had only II voluntary
schedules of cars last year, he already
has 125 this year.
Exactly how much added tax
money Hoyne will pump in the coun-
ty treasury will not be known for
some weeks. On all sides it is adj
mitted, however, that there is live
1ier rush to schedule personal prop
erty than ever before in the history
of Cook county.
There's a new deal in taxes. The
big fellows who have thrown the
main load of taxes on the small home
owner can't get their taxes fixed
without court fight with the states
attorney.
If things keep moving as they have
there will come a day when an as
SCISSOR won't have the nerve to deny

as Assessor Mike Sheridan did to a

out a clearer line of explanations than
most of the other assessors, said yes

MOVIE SHOWS AFTER CHURCH
Compromise IL Reached ON Sunday
Theaters at Wagner.

Wagner, Oct. 16.-Sunday evening
movie shows, after religious services
have been concluded, is an innovation
in the amusement line which has
been introduced here as the result of
conferences between members of the
city council and Manager Nance of
the only moving picture theater in
Wagner.
There was q pronounced sentiment
against the theater being operated
Sundays, on the ground that II would
interfere with religious services in
the local churches.
The manager OF the theater and
the members of the city council met
for the purpose OF seeing what could
be done to compromise the matter.
AS a result ii has been decided that
on Sunday evenings the theater will
remain closed until the evening sery-
ices at the churches are over.
In addition to this course, the NOV
ing pictures shown on Sunday even
ings will be of a religious character.

OFFICIAL RULING.

Pierre. Oct. 16.-The total legal
levy for all purposes is is IL mills

ney general rules that the 1915 act,
having been passed for the purpose
of limiting the rates of levy through

far as it may conflict. He holds that

However, the limit of levy pre-

Other important rulings were made
by the attorney general as follows:

Indian Girls Not Idle During Summer
Vacation.

Rapid City, Oct. 16.-Kate Little
Thunder and her sister, Grace. are
Indian girl students of the govern
ment Indian school in Rapid City Of
whom the government officials are
proud. They have just returned to
school for the winter term. That
they did not spend their vacation in
idleness, as many white girls do. is
indicated by a letter which the school
authorities received yesterday from
the father of the girls. aged 20, who
is one of the best known of the older
Sioux Indians on the Rosebud reser-
walton. In the letter the father states
that the girls We're of great assistance
to him during the summer and fall.
He has no boy at home and is too old
to work. To do the work on the
farm which the family owns, the girls
operated moving machines and a hay
rake to the extent that they put up
twenty-four tons of hay. In addition,
they finished cultivating the potato
crop on the farm, and finally har-
vested the tubers, storing thirty-eight
bushels in the family cellar for use
during the winter. They also cut
and hauled sufficient wood to last
during the winter months, so their
aged parents woAld be as comfortable
as possible during the time they are
completing their education In the
government Indian school.

War SUMMARY
PROGRESS OF CONDITIONS AS
COMPILED BY THE ASSO-
GATED PRESS.

New York, Oct. 16.-Special: Fiji
ty-five persons were killed and ia
injured by the bombs dropped by the
zeppelins which raided London Wed
nesday night. Fourteen of the killed
and thirteen of the wounded were sol
diers. The remainder were civilians
men. women and children-accord-
ing to the British home office. The
English people are greatly wrought
up over the attack and are demand
ing reprisals.
Berlin says of this raid-the more
serious made so far as casualties are
coneerned-that in addition to the
London docks, the town of Wool
witch. where the great British arsenal
is situated, were heavily bombarded
and that great fires resulted.
The British have been engaged in a
new and heavy attack on the German
position around Hulluch, one of the
important sectors between LaBasse
and Arras. One of the central points
of the battle was the H~ohenzollern
redoubt, which was taken from the
Germans some time ago, and was
partly regained by them. Preceded
by a bombardment, and under a cloud
of smoke and gas, 1000 yards of
German trenches, near Hulluch, were
taken. In addition, trenches behind
the Vermilles-Hulluch road and to
the northwest of the forest, as we'll as
the main trench of the Hohenzollern
redoubt, were captured. The British,
however, were unable to hold the

the vicious artillery fire to which
they were subjected.
Along the remainder of the front
in France there has been scarcely
any fighting except artillery duels,
but on the eastern front to the north
of the Bukowina frontier, where the
Russians a few days ago pierced the
German lines and crossed the Stripa
river, the Germans have counter at
tackled and checked the Russians,
driving them back across the stream.
Farther north, along the Pripet
river, and in the region of Dvinsk, the
Germans claim further successes for
their arms.
The march of the Germans and
Austrians through Serbia continues,
but at a slow pace. The erbians ev-
erywhere are accepting the gauge OF
battle and tenaciously resisting the
Teutonic invasion. Bulgaria has
definitely declared war against
Serbia.
