Fuckers injunction suit charges
that in September. 1924, Ed Jack
son, then Republican nominee for
Governor, conspired with McCardle,
Samuel insult, Martin insult and
Harley L. Clarke of Chicago; David
C. Stephenson, then a Republican
boss; Harry Reid, president of the
Interstate Public Service Corpora
ton; Robert 1. Todd, pesident of the
Indianapolis Street Railway Com
pany and of the Terre Haute, Indi-.
annapolis & Eastern Traction Com
pany, and others whose names are
unknown to plaintiff.
The conspiracy, the corporation
counsel charges, was to the effect
that in consideration of $4,000 to
be paid to McCardle, Jackson and
others for JacksOn's campaign
fund, jackson was to retain on the
public service commission only
such members as 'would be I'M
duly and illegally favorable and

The complaint charges that the
Governor specifically was to retain
McCardle on the commission and
that there should always be one and
preferably three or more members of
the commission who would unduly
favor the utilities.
Rucker charges the $4,000 was
paid in November, 1924, Jackson was
elected Governor and in May, 1925,
appointed Clyde Jones on the COM
mission and reappointed McCardle
pursuant to the exact terms of said
conspiracy"
The corporation counsel makes
the additional charge that Com
missioner Samuel II. Artman, in
order to procure support of the
Clarke and insult utility interests
in his race for Republican nOmina-
ton for Supreme Court Judge,
agreed to vote for McCardle as
chairman of the service commits
sion and that, by reason of Art
mans vote, McCardle was elected
chairman prior to the Republican
State convention i'm which Artman
was a candidate.
Artman now is DESTROYS of remain
ing on the commission or being APP
pointed to the State Industrial board
and thereby is compelled to and
does favor the said public utilities at
the cost and injury of the public
for the reason that he now fears his
removal by said Governor should he
not vote in favor of said public utili-
ties" Rucker alleges.
The complaint takes occasion to
state that Commissioner Frank
Singleton being a member of the
minority faction" is impartial be-
tween the public and said utilities"

FARMERSPRESENT
DRAB PICTURE OF
STATE CONDITIONS
Banks Get Lands Because
Owners Are Unable to
Pay Loan Interest.

A drab picture OF the lot Of the
farmer in Indiana, Illinois and Mich
igan was painted by farmers, bank
ers and business men today at the
opening session of a regional agricul-
tural conference under the auspices
of the Chamber of Commerce Of the
United States and the Indianapolis
Chamber Of Commerce at the Lin
coin.
Farmers, IL was asserted, are aban-
doning their farms and turning
them over to the banks because they
are unable to pay interest charges.
Two hundred are in attendance.
Frederick E. Schortemeier, Secre-
tary of State, presided.
Informal Talks
The conference is held in the form
of informal discussions by the mem
bers, the talks lasting not over Ave
minutes. It was the concensus of
the delegation that more credit would
not solve the problem Of the farmers.
1--WE farmers are more interested
in paying off the credit we have than
in getting more" said l.. X. Wyckoff
of the Porter County Farm Bureau.
THE farmer has not increased his
credit because he is afraid" c. S.
Masterson of the Indiana Farm Blu
reau said. 1.-THE average farmer
knows he has all the credit obliga-
tions he can assume"
John i Brown State tax hoard
chairman, said that farmers are
turning their uand over to the banks
and offers by the latter to sell bring
no response.
1.-THE economic condition in Indi-
ana is such" he said, that, not
withstanding that many farmers
have employed good business prac-
tees, they are unable to pay off their
interest"

day. Wheat opened II to IA cents

Wheat opened Is to Il cents lower.
The Liverpool drop, together with
