ments in the case today which has
grown out Of the trouble Friday night

his duty he will be liable to discharge.
Attorney H. S. Walker was In confer

Walker is attorney for Roy Bartholo-
new, who claims that Fuller as
|saulted him, without provocation, and
that the patrolman failed to arrest
him.
The investigation which was car

Fuller, but not filed. in which he was
charged with reckless and fast driv-
ing. This information was not
pressed when Fuller said that he had
just stepped into his car to drive up
the street, and that he had not picked
up any speed, and that car coming
down the street, blinded him when he
started to drive north. He said he
could produce three witnesses to
prove that he had just stepped into
his car, and was just driving away,
when he collided with the other car.
The only information the police
seemed to have on this charge was

When Were First 8
Township Lines
Established Here?

At the first meeting of the county
commissioners of Wayne county after
Indiana became a state, it was deem
ed the duty of the commissioners to
divide the county into townships. Ac-
cordingly, the six original townships
of the county were selected and their
bounds defined.
The six townships were Washing.
ton, Harrison, Jackson, Wayne, Perry
and New Garden. All were much
larger than their present limits. It
was decided that Washington. Jackson
Wayne and Perry should each have
three justices Of the peace, and Har-
rison and New Garden two. Inspectors
of election were appointed, and the
place for the first township election
was fixed in each township.
At their May session, 1917, the COM
missioners ordered an election in the
townships. Washington township
held its election at Waterloo, which
is now in Fayette county; Harrison
at the house Of John Williams; Jack
son at Jacksonburg; Wayne at the
house of John Lamb, and in Perry
and New Garden, ''the most conven-
lent place for the citizens to meet"
Centre township was established
from portions Of several others, in
September, 1877. and the organization
of Fayette county in 1919 caused a
change in the boundaries of Washing
ton township, as part of it's territory
was taken to help form the new
county. Green township was formed
after popular petition at the Novem-
Der session, 1921. Clay was organized
in May, 1881; Jefferson in March,
1884; Franklin in May, 1894; Boston,
in February, 1885; Arlington, in Feb
ruary, 1897; Dalton. in 1847, and Web
ster on December 5, 1870. So Web
ster is the baby of the county's sub
divisions. --..-

Good Evening
THEY DIDN'T DO ANY REAL EAT
ING, AT THAT
BY ROY x. MoULToN

J
The following dispatch from Topeka
appears in the Kansas City Star"
We wonder what the auditor would
have thought if the gentlemen in ques-
ton had tried to do some real eating
in this village. When he wants figures
that don't lie, we will tell him that
has failed to get US as far as the
entrees:
The Kansas state auditor is not
prepared to say what an ordinary meal
in New York ought to cost but he has
an idea that $11.15 is too much for
any one man to spend on four meals
other city or town. Also $3.50 is too
much for three meals for any ordi-
nary kansan in New York. The audi
tor has just begun to receive the bills
of the state officials who went to New
York on special duties connected with
the return of the Thirty-ffth division.
and the men who made the trip are
going to find large holes cut into the
expense checks when they are re-
ceived. The auditor announced today
that he was not going to allow any
such item at $11.15 for four meals in
one Jay lot any hauSau anywhere,
and that he was going to cut down all
the big feed bills of the officials"
A few months ago we all said it was
impossible for anybody to fly over the
Atlantic ocean. Now it has been done
and looks comparatively easy. Ten
years from now 1t will be einch.
Twenty years from now they will be
laughing at US old-fashioned folks who
didn't believe it could be done.
