TO OBREGON, DEAD
Mexico's Secretary of War
Passes Away After an
Operation.

MEXICO CITY, Dec. 15.--Gen. Benjamin
@. Hill, the Secretary of War, died early
this morning. He had been critically III
for several days.
The death of Gen. Hill caused great
excitement here. In official circles II

important factor in the consol dation OF
the various factions which made the
election of Gen. Obregon to the Presi-
dency possible. Gen. Hill had an
especially strong following In the north

For hours preceding the general
death crowds collected outside his resi-
dence. When word was received from
the sick chamber that he was dead sew
eral members of the Yaqui guard wepi
and wailings and lamentations went VI

made for the funeral as yet, but 1t is
not believed the body will be taken to
Sonora. Gen. Hills former home.
Gen. Hill was the staunchest sup
porter of Obregon during the period pre-
ceding the revolution against the late
President Carranza and later was Obre-
CONS chief military aide. When Mex
leo City surrendered he assumed charge
of the forces in the Valley of Mexico
and the Mexico City garrison. Obregon
appointed Gen. Hill Secretary of War
on December I, and he arose from a sick
bed to be sworn in.
Gen. Hill was taken i'll with a stomach
ailment just before the inauguration and
planned to go to Los Angeles for treat
ment His condition became worse,
however, and his recovery had been de-
SPARED of for several days. Tuesday
night an operation was performed In a
| final effort to save his life.
Gen. Hill was a Constitutionalist
leader during the Huerta regime. later
engaging in operations under Carranza
against Villa and Zapata. He became
attached to the Obregon party and left
Mexico City with Obregoh last April,
when the latter fed the capital, return

Disher and Other Men
Caught in Westcott Gaming
Raid, Plead Guilty; Fined

A. c. Disher, manager Of the West
cot hotel, arrested on a charge of
keeping a gambling house some time
ago. and James Braxton, A. Bishop
and Herbert Haustetter, charged with
visiting a gambling house, were fined
in circuit court Saturday. Disher was
fined $50 and costs and the other
three men received fines of $25 and
costs each.
An attorney for the men entered
pleas of guilty for them.
The affidavits against Arthur Brown,
hotel clerk, charging him with keeping
a gambling house, and Henry 'Ganter,
charged with visiting gambling
house, were dismissed by Prosecutor
Freeman. The prosecutor said that
Brown was merely acting in the ca
pacity of hotel clerk, and that the
evidence collected against Ganter
tended to show that he was in the
hotel at the time for strictly bust
ness purposes.
The alleged crap tables taken by
officials were ordered confiscated

TAXPAYERS MUST
MAKE OUT BLANKS,
ASSESSORS DECIDE

Assessors OF Wayne township in ses.
sion Saturday decided to follow close
~ the ftemized lists on page four of
the tax blanks in making their assess.
ments.
Ihe decision is expected to stop all
discussion in Wayne county in re.
gards to filling cut of the itemized
nianks. A number of assessors in the
state have been confused over the
itemized lists.
The action follows closely the an
nouncement made by the state tax
commission that all assessors in the
state should require the taxpayers to
I'LL out the itemized blanks.
David l.. Reid Wayne township as
SCISSOR and acting county assessor.
SAID saturday that he had received no
autnorltatlVe notice from thes state
board to that effect, and that the
action taken by Wayne township as
SCISSORS was the result of their own
decisions.
The statement, issued by the state
tax commission follows in part
Some misapprehension has arisen
In regard to the use of the supple
mental list of household goods and
farm implements on the fourth page
or the personal property schedule. All
assessing officers are instructed that
these lists are intended to assist the
taxpayers and the assessing officers
10 arrive at the value of classes of
property that previously have been
much eglected-especially when val
ues have been considerable.
Heretofore in many sections of the
state separate supplemental lists on
cards nave been used, but there has
oeen no uniformity in same. 1t is
provided this year that all shall deal
with the subject alike to the end that
there shall be equality of assessment
with the minimum of error, and that
these items in the supplementary lists
snall De used as a means to an end,
ana that these classes of property
shall be returned as all other classes
of property, at their true cash value.
Assessing officers are required to
take an oath that they will assess all
property at its true cash value, and
the responsibility of this work must
he theirs.
II the assessor agrees with the tax
payer and he is informed of the facts
and knows the amount agreed upon to
be true cash value. then he may use
discretion, as the lists were prepared
and intended to aid him and the tax
payer, but the responsibility of the
assessor can not be waived under his
oath, as it only permits such discre-
tion as will enable him to ascertain
the facts which should be known in
order to make correct returns"

"Cheep" Say Chicks Sent

Going Higher, Anvwav
Theepo" Not noticeably so!

Cheep?" Not noticeably so!
A sure sign of spring, and a sure
sign that the High Cost Of Living is
not going to be materially reduced. as
far as poultry is concerned. for some
time, has been sounding through the
Richmond postoffice for the last
week.
Newly hatched chicks are being
sent to poultry raisers throughout the
country by parcel post. The chicks
are keeping the postoffice cheerful
with their continual chirping and are
apparently perfectly contented in their
specially constructed cases, under the
care of Uncle Sam.
Their value has increased about 400
percent in the last few years as we'll,
as the chicks are now listed as being
worth 90 cents apiece, whereas they
were formerly sold for five cents.
Chicks are the only living things that
can be carried by mails, as they can
be left for 4S hours without food or
water, without injury.

EVERY REPUBLICAN
CANDIDATE INVITED
TO CITY IN APRIL

Wayne county Republican leaders
were busy Saturday preparing for a
district love feast to be held here in
April.
Candidates seeking nominations,
from that for the presidency of the
United States down to township Off
Gals in Wayne county, will be invited
to attend. Each will be given an op-
portunity to show why he believes
he should represent the people.
Invitations will be sent to the can
didates for the presidential nomina-
ton, and Republican leaders were
sanguine of attracting them.
Candidates for Governor, Also.
The candidates for the governors
chair and for other state officers prob
ably will be here in large numbers
Aspirants for county office and posts
OF smaller Importance, it is believed,
will not overlook an opportunity to
present the merits of their candidates.
Delegates from the counties COM
prising the district will be entertained
by Wayne county Republicans. .Senti-
ment elsewhere in the district favors
the big meeting, which rs expected to
be one of the most important in
Indiana.
So far no district or county has
tried to bring together on one day and
in one place all the candidates for the
Republican nomination for president,
all candidates for state offices, and all
candidates for county and township
positions.
Nesting to be Spectacular.
The meeting probably will be one of
the most spectacular in the political
history of the Sixth district. Interest
centers in the coming of the presiden-
tial candidates. The presence of one,
if all the others should find it unable
to attend, would give the love feast a
mark of distinction.
Republican leaders said they conf
IDENTIFY expected every candidate for a
state office to be present. The guber-
material candidates, it is believed, will
hardly overlook the opportunity.
The Coliseum has been selected for
the meeting ana the program will be
SO arranged that every candidate will
be given an opportunity to speak un-
der time limit.
