1929 STATUTE UPHELD
Reaching Verdict Handed Down
by State Supreme Court.

Neither judge no. jury can find
a prisoner guilty of a lesser offense
than that for which he was indicted,
the state supreme court has ruled.
Constitutionality Of a 1929 statute
was being tested in the case of Har-
ry Ramsey, appealed from Fountain
circuit court. Charged in the in
dictment with auto banditry, Ram

intent to commit robbery.
The high court opinion, written by
Chief Justice Walter E. Treanor, re-

CHAOS FACING
STATE, CLAIMS
TAX AUTHORITY
Impossible to Avert Com
mon RUM He Says; SyS-
tenn Change Urged.

Democrats are facing a state def
cit, and all the taxation measures
that they can enact at the coming
legislative session can not prevent
the state government from being
without funds, it is predicted at
the statehouse.
The representation came from
one of the leading tax authorities
whose forebodings regarding the
future of government in Indiana
were such that he asked that his
name be not used.
THE state and every large gov
ernmental unit in Indiana will be in
the same plight as Chicago within
another year. he predicted.
Burden on the Needy
Proponents of the sales tax, who
figure on it netting around $22 ,000,-
900 in revenue, will be fooled badly.
With a l per cent levy on gross
sales, not more than 100000 will
be obtained, while at least 100000
the state budget, according to board
of accounts figures.
"A 2 per cent levy in the state of
Mississippi brought in only $4,000
600. A 2 per cent levy never could
pass here and maybe any general
sales tax will be impossible of pass
age since it puts the burden directly
on those least able to pay.
Labor and liberal groups will
fight it vigorously" he asserted.
"An income tax, which at one
time in Indiana might have brought
in $6,500,O00, would not raise more
than $1,000, GOO now and possibly
not that much. Incomes have
shrunk and continue to rapidly dis
appear.
Facing Common Ruin"
"An intangible tax, good at best
for not more than 100000, would
practically be useless at present. In
tanglibles are mainly valueless, and
it is doubtful if go per cent of them
will not remain so,' he said.
The spokesman contends that the
Democrats face the greatest govern
mental problems in the history OF
the state and all they can do hardly
will prevent common ruin"
A conservative on governmental
affairs, predicts that only radical
changes in the present system can
save Indiana, American and the rest
of the world from complete econom-
ic collapse and chaos.

washington, the Man
And the Capital

In this year of the George Washing
ton Bi-Centennial Celebration every
public school, club and organized
group is interested in films that COM
memorate Washington, the Man. War
ner Brothers has filled this need in a
particular way with its excellent short
subject, washington, the Man and the
Capital" two-reel feature which has
been made with specific care and ar
tistic detail. Clarence Whitehill, a
baritone of the Metropolitan Opera
Company, because of his striking re-
semblance to the First President, was
selected for the role of George Wash
ington. He re-enacts in the picture
the historical scenes that took place at
Mount Vernon, particularly during
those days when Alexander Hamilton
was pressing upon Washington the need
of his acceptance of the first preSi-
dency of the New Republic. Students
of history remember that the Com
mander of the Colonial armies having
retired to the peace of his home on the
Potomac, was loath to accept this great
new responsibility. The scene leading
up to Washington's decision is a most
dramatic and impressive bit of histori-
cal story. The second half of this
patriotic picture presents the visioned
city of Washington as the first presi-
dent dreamed that it might be.
The film is only two reels in length,
but it is most important contribution
to any program during this year of
official celebration in honor of Wash
ington.
This picture will be shown at the
Elco Theatre, April 20, 80, and May 1st.

Again do the ranges loom up
in the scheme of earthly things.
All honors and congratulations
are due Miss Annie Govednik,
the Is year old Chisholm girl
who broke the National 100
yard breast stroke record by
lettering the previous record
made by Agnes Clarity of New
York by three-tenths of Sec
ond for time of 1889. This
record was made Friday at the
Virginia pool and her record
stands this time as three timers
sanctioned by the A. A. U. held
the watches. This goes to
show that the ranges are not
so slow even if iron ore is a
drug on the market at the
present time.

Highway Department Asking
For Bids on Paving, Grad
ing and Crawling.

Bids on seven paving projects total
ing 62.l mills and calling for the laying
of 730,943 square yards of concrete will
be opened May 3 at the State Highway
department, according to announcement
by Commissioner C. NJ Babcock.
Five of the projects were among those
listed for opening of bids on April 5,
and were rejected, and two were re-
jected at the opening of April 10.
Bids on nine grading jobs requiring
the movement of 2,505 900 cubic yards of
dirt have been asked for to be opened at
the highway department on May 18th.
In addition to the grading projects,
bids are also asked on one crawling and
two shoulder jobs, and on 400, 900 lineal
feet of guard rail material and in
stallation and the resetting of 87,400
feet of guard rail.
There has been considerable comment
in the newspapers of the state relative
to the high cost of pavement in Min
nesota and statement is made to
clear up some apparent misunder-
standing on that point.
While the bid prices received on
December 22nd were extremely high no
contracts were awarded and the state,
therefore suffered no loss except the
minor one of having to readvertise and
again receive bids. In view of the fact
that the prices received at that time
were excessive the department was
somewhat hesitant about again read
vertising for bids until definite assur-
ance could be given that more favorable
prices would be received.
In any event the state has not
suffered any loss on account of the
high prices received at lettings of
December 22nd and more recent dates
as no contracts were awarded until
satisfactory prices were received. It is
anticipated that he average price for
paving to be constructed during 1882
be considerably lower than that re-
ceived during the past years and Min
nesota has always enjoyed an enviable
reputation among other states, both for
the quality of its highway construction
as we'll as for the low prices which it
has received for the work.

SAVED HONOR OF GIRL

FORT WAYNE, IND.-A new ex.
ample Of Abraham Lincoln's humanity

1t was contained in a letter to the
martyred president from a young Phil

in which she poured out her heart to
Lincoln and told him the story of her
troubles. She had been engaged to a
young man who in 1861 enlisted for
three years in the army. After few
months service he was sent 10 hos.
pital sick. After his recovery he, with
some ether soldiers. was permitted 20
return home for the election. Tha:
was in October. 1863. The young won

the objections of her father. the sol

man. The young woman confessed Ia
the President that there had been in

coin to send her fiance back home so
that they could be married and pre-

pressed it. In conclusion she wrote :

FIRE Hazard
STRESSED
No Camp Fires Permitted in
Seagull Lake District With
out Permit.

The United States Forest Service has
announced that, on account of the
serious fire hazard which exists in the
vicinity of Seagull and Sagenaga Lakes
of the Superior National Forest, no
camp fires will be permitted in that
area except when camp fire permit
has been secured giving permission for
such fire.
The specific area covered by this re-
striction consists of all the Superior
National Forest lying in Townships
IS and sc North, Ranges and S West,
4th Principal Meridian, this area i'm
mediately surrounding Seagull and
Saganaga Lakes, and being at the
northwest terminus of the Gunflint
Trail.
This action restricting camp fires in
this area was taken by Regional
Forester Tinker under regulation TIE
of the United States Forest Service, and
the restriction will be rigidly enforced
from May LIST to october LIST of this
year.
Permits to build camp fires in this
area may be secured from any officer
of the United States Forest Service in
Grand Marais or Ely, or from any Of
the following named cooperators within
the restricted area:
Seagull Lodge, on Seagull Lake;
Windago Lodge, on Seagull Lake;
Chik-Wauk Lodge, on Saganaga
Lake;
Saganaga Lodge, on Saganaga Lake;
Bouman & Mayo, on Seagull Lake.
In past years numerous islands and
tracts of land in this area have been
burned over by fires caused by care
lessly watched camp fires. During 1881
campers and smokers caused % of the
43 fires on the Superior National Forest,
most of them in remote and inacces-
sible regions.
Camp fire permits were required in
the Seagull and Saganaga District dur
ing 1881, and 100 permits were issued.
The cooperation secured from the
camping public was greatly appreciated
by the Forest Service, and it is hoped
that the assistance of the public will
enable the Superior National Forest to
go through the 1892 fire season with
the minimum number of fires.
