Assessor Jefferson outlined the
legal procedure in paying dog tax.
THE time to pay is when my
deputy assessor comes around" he
said. HE carries a receipt book
If the owner doesn't pay him, it
can be paid at my office until May
10. Then turn over the books and
money to w. Fl. Evans, trustee of
Center Township, 215 E. New York
St. All delinquent taxes must he
paid to him after that.
And as soon as pup gets three
months old, no matter what time Of
year it is, the owner rlHst go to
Evans office and pay his township
tax. Also as soon as any one buys
a dog, regardless OF the date, he
must go to Evans and pay the tax.
"Then a whole lot of people have
a disease known - 'cellaritis' about
the time the assessor comes around.
They hide the hound in the cellar
and the only thing that will cure
the epidemic Is an operation on the
pocketbook performed by justice

RALSTON'S NAME

ington Farley,
By Times =. Special

BIZ Times Special
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.---Senator
Samuel NJ Ralston's name was thrown
into the presidential lists today by
Charles A. Greathouse, member of the
Democratic national committee.
Unable to obtain the consent OF the
Senator or his approval for any effort
in his behalf as presidential can
djdate. Greathouse made a statement
to the Democrats gathered from all
States in which he advanced Ralston
as d standard bearer who personities
the virtues of the old Jeffersonian
ideas of Government" and man
against whom no element within tho
party is arrayed" and clearly the sort
of man to nominate.
Ralston only laughed heartily when
the statement was brought to his at
tention and repeated he was not a
candidate and with some emphasis de-
clared he regarded himself as an i'm
possibility" In this position Ralston
has given every evidence Of sincerity.
However, with the Greathouse state
ment. there can be no keeping his
name out of the presidential consider
atoms.
While Greathouse was taking his
step Meredith Nicholson, Fred Van
Mugs, Dan Simms. Ed Hoffman and
Lew Ellingham were circulating in the
Democratic camps and preaching the
Ralston doctrine.

No Deputy Prosecutor on

in Beech Grove.

Sheriff George Snider visited the
court Of Justice of Peace Hurst in
Beech Grove town hall Monday night
and found evidence that persons were
being prosecuted for speeding without
eff an autoist pleads not guilty he
must be prosecuted by a deputy pros
ecutor," the sheriff said.
The sheriff also informed Constable
Roy Starks, who admitted his lack Of
knowledge of the limits of his author
ity, that he did not have the power
to arrest a motorist in an adjoining
county on a charge Of speeding. Three
cases were dismissed after the arrival
of the sheriff, because the parties had
been arrested I'm Johnson county.
- Better get straight on your power
as an officer Of the law" Sheriff Snider
said.
PAY more attention to sections Of
roads where pedestrians are more
likely to be injured, rather than away
over on county roads where the only
danger is to the speeder's own neck. 3"
Sheriff Snider said.
Beech Grove citizens were up in
arms over the fact a dead animal had
lain in the street for two days while
officials were in another part of the
county chasing speeders.
Eighteen cases a Saturday and Sun

night. Seven were fined, some dis
