'''-''''" TRAGEDY

The second death in less than one
week b. railroad accidents in the Lake
Shore at Indiana Harbor occurred last
night when Ciderscio Abunugo. residing
at 1905 Waiting St, was instantly kill
crossing the tracks near tho bridge at
the Mark plant.
Abunigo who was employed BY the

work, in company with two Mexicans
Upon reaching the center of the eros
sing all three men stopped, 1t is al
legged that the two Me5lcans struck
Ahunigo on the head with some instru-
ment as he was seen TO fall just before
the train approached.
Tho train which was coming at fair
rate of speed usually slows down al
this particular spot. The engineer
of the passenger upon seeing the man
living on the tracks. Immediately ap-
piled the brakes, but was unable to
stop the train before striking the dead
man.
This is the same scene or the fateful
accident of three days ago. when tho
body OF Charles Olson. who was found
badly mangled. One or his legs. and
both Of his arms are stll missing and
it is believed that they were thrown in
the canal
That both deaths have in the begin
ning been the work Of foul play is tho
opinion of the police, is accounted for
BY the fact that the Mexfcans had been
seen with both Of the dead men prev
ious to their deaths.
No trace has been found of the Mexi-
cans. who are believed TO have fed
from the Harbor. Immediately after the
accident.

State Tax Rate Lowered

The State tax rate for 1921 will be
35t cents and 1922 35 cents. This
represents saving from the present
State tax of something over l cent for
1921 and near II cents for 1922. This
is very slight increase over the rate
contemplated when the budget was
submitted The increase is due to the
$3.50, 900 bridge loan, the addition of
500 900 to the general construction
loan and to an amendment to the Road
bill which provides for the issue of the
entire 81, 800, 600 in August. 1920, in
stead of only $750,00o, an amendment
which seemed necessary to assure suttlc
,ent funds in hand f1r forthcoming
road work All may take just pride
n this lowering of the tax rate, in the
face of the excessive high cost OF llv'

The County Levy

The county tax for the ensuing year
will be $1.34 on the 500; sanitary
tax will be cent on the 500. Last
year the county tax was 81. O8 and the
sanitary tax one and one-half cents,
making an increase, therefore, this
year, of 264 cents. The State rate 36
81 " is the same as last year. The IN
crease is on account of additional pay
for school teachers: 10 cents additional
levy for roads work. and levy for pay
ment of county indebtedness. 1t is I'M
derstood $4,000 for the schools and
additions in the school budget was not
allowed, otherwise the county rate
would have been much higher. The
commissioners figured that new build
ings would be taken care of by the pro-
posed 5000, 900 bond issue.
The assessable basis shows an in
crease of practically million dollars,
including re al and personal property,
household goods, stock and bonds, etc.
The recapitilation of the levy is as
follows

ORGANIZATION

One Of the decisions reached 1t the
meeting Of the II v. A. just closed
was to extend, Is far rs possible, to
the entire state the plan Of organise
ton which has already been applied
with most satisfactory results in a
good many localities, namely, otsani-
cation by precincts. That seems like \
wise decision.
Political action is in most cases the
result Of we'll organized work. And
the smaller the unit Of organization
the better. The general organization
is necessary, and useful work is often
done by appealing to large groups.
But votes are cast by individuals, and
the closer the organization can get to
the individual the more effective it
will be. The precinct Organization b
about the nearest approach to the
ideal that is possible in . general Poe
litical campaign. A good precinct
committee is well versed in the affairs
of. the precinct, and it provides the
best working medium for keeping the
people Of a given locality in touch
with the spirit of the campaign in
general.
In the approaching campaign there
is plenty OF work for both precinct
and general committees Townleyisn
Is losing ground. For some time it has
been losing supporters faster than it
has been making converts. But the
Townley machine will not let go its
grip without q struggle. The loss OF
control in. North Dakota means the
crumbling Of the whole machine, and
no measures, 10 matter how desper-
ate. will be omitted which give prom:
ise Of avertins that disaster. Hence
It Is imperative that the friends OF
real democracy bestir themselves. and
see to it that the opportunity which
now preaents itself is not frittered
away.
