that unframed men were worse than
useless for military service because
they do not have the hardihood to
withstand the privations and exhaust
ing demands of campaign in the
field.
Lieut.. Coppock avoided discussion
of the dangers which confont the ma

to the fact that in Japan here are
powerful men who dream Of a day

FILED
DECREASE FOR
LAST QUARTER

Business in Richmond during the
last three months, as reflected in the
report of the county recorder, is not as
active as during the corresponding
period of 1916. The recorders office
shows decrease of twenty in the
number of deeds recorded, and a slight
increase in the number of mortgages.
The total amount of fees collected
during January, February and March,
1916, amounted to $90620, while in
1915 the fees amounted to $943.20.
County Recorder Parsons said that
he knew of no reason for the decrease
in business except a general slump in
real estate trasactions. The January
record showed a large decrease. Bust
ness picked up in March, however, and
gain was shown over last year for
that month in the number of transac-
tions recorded.
During the last three months 1858
deeds were recorded, compared with
38S during the same period last year;
244 mortgages in 1916, compared with
239 in 1915: sixteen mechanics liens
for 1916. and eighteen for 1915; sew
enty-nine chattel mortgages, compared
with 100 in 1916: seventy-three re-
leases compared with eighty-seven last
year.
The report shows further that there
were two transcripts, twenty-five as
signments; four articles of incorpora-
tion, 292 marginal releases, eighteen
marginal assignments; thirty-five mis-
cellaneous papers, totaling fees of
$906 90.

ASKED MURPHY
TO Leave. POST

INDIANAPOLIS, April 11.-Charges
that Charles J. Murphy, who resigned
as a member of the Indiana public
service commission yesterday, and
who was succeeded by Anthony Deahl
a Goshen attorney, had insisted that
the Merchants Heat and Light Com
pany, of Indianapolis, GUST James w
Fesler, its attorney, and employ the
law firm of Ryan & Ruckelshaus~
who were the attorneys for Joseph E.
Bell in the election conspiracy trial
recently, in which the mayor was &C
auitted-were the direct cause of a
demand on Murphy that he resign, &C.
eording to information available today
Governor Ralston made the demand on
Murphy, according to the information
but the Governor refused to discuss
this phase of the situation.
Murphy gave his public reason for
resigning as a new venture in business
that he intended making in the sum-
mer At his home today he said the
reasons he gave publicly included the
entire situation, as it revolved about
him. Governor Ralston, in the face of
anonymous charges against Mr.. Fesler,
today declared that Mr.. Fesler had
conducted himself with the utmost
rectitude throughout three weeks or
more of a delicate situation of which
the Murphy resignation from the COM
mission was a climax.

ing the necessity of the nation making
adequate preparations for defense, re-
/ marked that in event of war, "a mil
lion men would spring to the defense
of the country over night"
Just what it means for an unframed
civilian, fat and flabby from indoor
work, to spring to arms over night"
was illustrated to over one hundred
members of the Twelve-Six club at
its weekly luncheon today, the Illus
tration being given by Lieutenant
Coppock, Second United States caval-
ry, who is in charge of the Indiana
recruiting service.
How far do you suppose, any one of
you, mean, could march tomorrow as
an infantryman, with sixty-pound
kit packed on your back?" casually
remarked Lieutenant Coppock.
Auditors Draw Picture.
Each of his auditors instantly view
ed a mental snapshot of himself try
ing to participate in a forced march
along rough roads, under broiling
sun, with sixty pounds of luggage
slowed away on his back-and not one
of them got much enjoyment out of
gazing upon said mental picture.
Lieut.. Coppock didn't get 20 tell the
one hundred Richmond business men
all he wanted to about the helpless
condition the nation is now in and the
imperative necessity of preparing
against war The war department will
not permit army officers to discuss
this question, perhaps fearing that if
army officers were permitted to speak
their minds frankly to the American
people congress and the national adj
ministration would be kept busy for
some time trying to explain why pork
measures instead of defense bills had
been written upon the statute books
while the nation was confronted with
crisis.
Describes Summer Camp.
Liuet. Coppock told of the civilian
training camp which is to be held at
Fort BENJAMIN Harrison, indianapolis,
this coming summer and he urged
Richmond men to attend this camp.
He pointed out that if every American
citizen of military age would prepare
himself to defend his country then the
country would itself be prepared. He
assured his auditors that those who at
tended the camp would return to their
homes Gin the pink of condition." with

MISS WHITE GIVES
VIEWS ON CONTEST
IN FRANCHISE BODY

There are always a lot of people
round the state to be jealous of Ind
annapolis" said Miss Esther Griffin
White, chairman of the Sixth district
today, land that is one of the reasons
for the candidacy of Mrs. Gill, of
Muncie, for the presidency of the
Franchise league to displace DR.. Anne
liza Keller.
Chiefly, however. the candidacy of
Mrs. Gill is matter of Franchise
league politics as Mrs. Gill is being
backed by Mrs. Stimson of Terre
Haute presum; bly, to get. even with
the state board of the Franchise
league in last autumn, requesting her
resignation from that body as she had
dragged the Franchise league into a
Federation of Clubs row with which
the Franchise league had nothing to
do. This request was, however, later
withdrawn, and Mrs. Stimson is still
a member of the board. But Mrs.
Stimson, who is a pretty good poll
tician, wants to do some bossing on
the state board so she's working to
GUST the present administration Mrs.
board, has not been conspicuous in
Franchise league activities, save
locally, and, in addition, is not located
in Indianapolis, where the state presi-
dent should be located and where the
state headquarters must be placed i'll
order to effectively administer the
work of the league during the sessions
of the legislature.
Favor Mrs. Keller.
while the suffragists of this city
are not taking any particularly active
part in this matter, the majority of
them regard DR.. keIler's reelection,
for the coming year at least. as neces-
sary as this is the year of national
election and the Indiana legislature
meets the coming winter Therefore,
1T is not thought advisa Bile to change
executive heads at this time, since. no
matter how efficient a new president
might be, her inexperience would
count against the effectiveness of the
work of the league the coming season.
AT a meeting of the county chair
men held in this city few weeks ago
to elect district chairman for the
coming year, it was recommended that
Sixth district delegates be instructed
to vote for DR.. Keller for the reasons
set forth above"
Representatives from this city to
the fifth annual convention of the
Woman's Franchise league of Indiana
to be held in the Claypool April II,
Is and ID, are: Mrs. Nellie Barnard,
