THEY TELL Me

I ty-two miles of city streets, built a
$4,000 city hall, $4,000 business
block for the light company and
established a city park with a lake.
And last week the citizens of
Washington, so well pleased with
public ownership of their light
company and street car line, voted
overwhelmingly in a special election
to authorize their mayor to buy the
$650,000 water company for their
city.
This is in the face of opposition
of those interests to whom the
spectacle of successfully public
ownership of utility is both a
bogie and a specter.

Public ownership of utility advo-
Gates believe they have their man in
McCarty.
If afforded the opportunity
through a deadlock in the conven-
ton, his supporters may enter his
name.
But McCarty's candidacy would
present one problem to his party.
From political standpoint, and po-
liticai only, and peculiarly indigenous
to Indiana politics, he labors under
handicap-the same which count
ed against Al Smith in Indiana, and
it is not his attitude on prohibition.
Were it not for this, Washington's
progressive wonder mayor" would
easily be the outstanding contender
for Governor.

Casting about for candidate for
the Democratic nomination for
Governor in 1882 who views the
public utility problem much as they
do, many members of that party
are discussing the availability of
Mayor John w. McCarty of Wash
ington.
Dapper, sartorially almost the
Beau Brummel, Mayor McCarty is
easily an outstanding figure in Hoo
sier Democracy, yet he never takes
an active part its broils and in
trigues.
For twenty years mayor of a Re
publican city and still the first
choice of his townsmen, McCarty
has led in the fight for municipal
ownership of public utilities and
has succeeded where others have
failed.
His first success was public
ownership of the electric light plant
and street car line in Washington.
Using the profits derived from
this utility, Mayor McCarty re-
duced the city's tax rate from SLIP
to 40 cents and expects to slash it
further to 4415 cents next year. De-
spite this tax reduction, the plant
has been built up from a 5O0-kilo-
watt outfit to a modern utility
valued at 100000.
And again, despite the tax rate
slashes, mccarthy has paved twen-

NEW YORK, Sept. 16.-Clarence

good-naturedly at first, was seen
to brush away few tears before

CITIZENS FIGHT
BOOK DEAL IN
RURAL SCHOOLS
GLADDEN. Backs Principals in
Refusal to Sell in
townships.

Complaints from Marion county
school patrons that their children
are forced to go long distances this
year to purchase text books, when
last year they secured them at the
school buildings, were answered to-
day by Fred T. GLADDEN., county
superintendent.
GLADDEN. said the system had been
changed because several principals,
who lost text book money in bank
failures last year, have declined to
handle books this year"
Although we approve handling
books at the schools in each town
ship, there is no way to force this
upon principals" GLADDEN. said.
The county board of education
selected Crawfords book store, at
8l3 North Delaware street, as the
county book depository, where pupils
are buying books, GLADDEN. said.
About half Of the schools are
handling their own books this year,
he further declared. In Washing
ton township, the Parent-Teacher
Association has taken responsibility
for selling books.
"I heartily indorse the latter
method and think it a good sug-
gestion for all Parent-Teacher
groups to follow" the superintend-
ent stated.
Other schools handling textbooks
this year at the buildings are: War
rem Central high school, Perry
township school No. 4, New Bethel
high school and Acton schools.

schools announced today by Glad

Joker Is Found in Ban by

ST. THOMAS, Ont, June %
American beer gangs within the last
seventy-two hours have reorganized
forces on the north shore of Lake
Erie and have sent several ship
ments to the United States under
full Canadian governmental author
ity, it was reported today.
The beer runners are reported to
have obtained legal sanction for
the expectation of their cargoes to
the United States with revelation
that the liquor export ban does not
include restrictions on wines and
beers.
A test run was made by q rum
runner Saturday, the reports saw.
Aboard a re-conditioned speed boat.
the cargo was said to have been
checked through west Of Port Stan
ley with every formality required
under the new Interpretation Of the
export ban.
other tests were made at different
points along the north shore and
always the shipments received Off
cial approval, it was said.
Officially designated liquor ex-
port docks have been done away
with and it is now unnecessary to
check shipments of wines and beers
through customs officials. In some
OF the test cases, beer was taken
from the breweries on trucks and
run to the lake shore, where it was
loaded into speed boats without
making contact with any Canadian
custom officer
