A meeting was called for Wednesday at the cilice of Voris & Stilwell in the Crawford house block of the stockholders and those interested in the new Crawfordsville Gun Club. The room was completely filled, lifty interested people being present and a great deal of enthusiasm being manifested in the proposed club. All the stock of $2,000 was subscribed) it being divided into four hundred shares valued at $5 per share, and more could have been sold.

The building will stand about where the present amphitheatre stands and besides four living rooms for the attendant and his family, who will keep the club house always ready for occupancy, there will be several rooms for club -members, toilet rooms, an office, and on the north side next to the shooiinglstands will be a large observationjporch.

Engine Broke Down.

The north bound Vandalia passenger train, due here at G:28 m., arrived here Wednesday at midnight. As the train was leaving New Market the fire box fell from the engine and the tender and baggage coach were derailed. Bad the train had time to attain speed, there would have undoubtedly been a disastrous wreck, as the fire box offered an obstruction that would have sent the whole train into the ditch. Several traveling men hired rigs and drove here, being almost frozen when they arrived.

A $20,000 STATION.

That Is What The Big Four Will Give Us If a Real Estate Deal Can Be Closed Up.

It all depends now on the ability of the Big Four to secure the property of Robert Larsh at a reasonable figure whether or not ttiat railroad will erect in this city a handsome new $20,000 station.

Through Ben Crane the road has secured options on Dr. E. H. Cowan's property on south Washington street and the old Bassett placq on south Green street owned by M. Crawford and hope to be able to closo with Mr. Larsh in a few days. This would give the road a full half block in the very best part of the town close to the business center and on a street which doubtless will be paved in the near future. It is proposed to remove all the buildings from this half block and erect thereon a handsome station of brick and stone costing in the neighborhood of $20,000.

It will be thoroughly up-to date in every respect containing in addition to the waiting rooms a restaurant, toilet rooms, a baggage room, etc. The station will be located near Washington street, and the grounds not occupied by the building will be beautifully plotted in grass and flower beds. Fountains will add to the general attractiveness of the place. The city will be asked to vacate the north side of Franklin street from Green to Washington, which part of the street the company 'rill pave with brick and as an offset will make a forty foot public roadway on the north side of its property. It is hardly necessary to state that this proposed improvement would be deeply appreciated by the people of Crawfordsville, and if it goes through we will all have a warm place in our hearts for General Manager Barnard who is taking a very lively interest in the matter

THE CRAWTORDSYILLE WEEKLY JOURNAL.

The Big Four Station Is a Go.

The Big Four station will bo built in the half square between Washington and Green streets, fronting on Franklin, the last option, that on the property of Robert Larsh, having been secured last Monday. It is understood from outside parties that the cost of the real estate will approximate $15,000, $6,500 for the Cowan property, $5,000 for the BaBsett property and $.3,550 for the Larsh property. It is not known when work on the new station will be

beguD,

but it is expected that it will be early in the spring.

Are on a Strike In Clark.

Trustee JohDZimmerman was up from Clark township Monday and said that afternoon in speaking of the order Issued by the county board of health: "That vaccination order has just about broken up our schools, thirty per cent, of the pupils being out in the Ladoga schools and seventy-five per cent, in the schools outside of Ladoga. They refuse to be vaccinated and state that the vaccination is worse than the disease, they having heard that many of the people of Crawfordsville have lost their arms and legs from being vaccinated, and that several deaths have also resulted. They don't believe that there is any danger of the disease ever reaching Ladoga and are therefore op posed to being vaccinated. They came near mobbing me Saturday until they found out that I had nothing to do with the order."

Without an Assessor.

Clark township is without an assessor. Robert Manners, who was elected to that position, has gone to Milo, Iowa, to live, and, although he has not resigned, Attorney-General Taylor has advised that the county commissioners declare a vacancy and that the auditor select a successor. There, is a petition on file for the appointment of John Harris, who was the Republican candidate

for

assessor aeainst Mr. Manners.

A New Freight Depot Too.

It is expected that in addition to the new passenger station the Big Four will erect a freight depot either on the site of the present structure or on land yet to be secured. If the passenger station is a go it is settled that Will Endlcott will have charge of the restaurant to be operated in connection with it.

Comment and Storyj

John C. Wingato: "i was greatly disappointed that there was not a larger attendance at the meeting of township assessors last Saturday. We had a very profitable session and nearly everyone present had one or more questions to ask, the answers to which cleared up doubts that perhaps have existed in the ininds of many assessors on certain points. The object of the state board of tax commissioners in holding these meetings for townships is the same that called the state and district meetings of county assessors in existence, that is to bring about a more equitable assessment of property in Indiana. These meetings have been extremely beneficial but in my opinion those of the township assessors are far the most important. The township assessor is the most important officer in the whole state in some respects and his work is the foundation of the entire taxing system. More attention should be given to the quality of the men elected to this position. "I wish you would impress upon your readers the fact that the state board is paying particular attention this year to the delinquent taxes. We are urging upon county treasurers the importance of making every effort to collect up as close as possible as by their oath they are bound to do. Here is another defect in our taxing system bccause the greater the delinquent tax the higher the rate. You would be surprised at the number of young men in every community who hold responsible positions, draw good salaries and who are held in general esteem, who never pay thoir poll taxes. There are a lot of them right here in Montgomery county and If their names were published the public estimate of several prominent young gentlemen would be changed decidedly."
