TELLS OF
Meeting At Normal Hall Held In the Interest of War Stamps Campaign.
An audience at Normal hall Saturday night heard the most wonderful and enlightening speech on the war situation yet given in Terre Haute. The speaker, Hon. Frank Heron, vicechairman of the Indiana State War Having Stamps committee, eloquently told with cold facts the conditions of the countries at war in 1914 and today FO that the audience could ascertain what must be done and what wi!l be tione when peace la finally declared. He said: "Alsace-Lorraine Is the key to the whole situation and we will win when we take the iron fields of that providence. Food, men and munitions are necessary to warring nations. Germany has food and men and will continue to have iron and munitions if she holds Alsace-Lorraine. The war 'will last five years at least. It is up to
America to win the war." "We do not live as individuals," said Mr. Ho ron. "Eternal principles alone live. Mercy an dliberty will live, and we are the instruments of God to see that it. does live."
The speaker told of some of the most horrible of German atrocities, and asked the question, why and how did Germany ever come to commit them? He took the organization and origin of the German people and told their history up until the present day. He Explained that the German people (stood back of the kaiser because the principle of might makes right had Wen Instilled Into them since birth.
!Sohools
and churches, controlled by
the kaiser, polluted the people's minds. The epcact conditions in England, !FVance, Russia, Italy and other European countries prior to the war were (described. These exposures of the Inefficiency and fragility of the allied armies and navies prior to the war completely set at naught Germany's •charges that she prosecuted the war Itn self-defense, and that England wanted war. "Germany's doctrine consists of Darwin's theory and Maxmillian's three itnaxlms. She believes In the survival .of the fittest and that Germans are Jthe fittest. In her "selection of species" (she is killing the men of Belgium, Servia and Armenia. Darwin's theory may work with plants and animals but Dar*wln never acoounted for the soul. MaxlTnllllan's three maxims (the kaisers ^blble) are,—kill all collateral branches, •o that there is no opposition to your power If Internal trouble arises, start k war so the people will forget, and 3ast but not least, never attaek a istronger nation than yourself, always attack a weaker nation or form alliances so that you will be stronger than the other on*., This policy has been followed by all German emperors.
Every country in Europe has had a 'successful revolution but Germany. .^That is the thought has changed from monarchy and autocracy to democracy

and liberty. The kaiser saw the writing on the wall and followed the second maxim. "There are two kinds of Germans in the United States," said Heron, "the Carl Schurz and Fritz Sigel kind who fought with us in the civil war for freedom and the ones that are stabbing us in the back. The United States German is giving his life in the service of the United States for his hatred of the Junker policy and German kultur is beyond belief. The few others should be lined up in the noon day sun and shot down like the dogs they are. and we should Insist that congress pass such a law."

The total receipts for the spring assessment exceeded by $290,000 any receipts taken In before. The total amount collected was $1,255,245.75. One reason for the Increase in tax returns is that the rat© has been raised 14c on the $100, to make up for the loss in liquor licenses.

Fighting In Picardy.
Renewal of active cannonading in the region of Picardy and Mailly-Rameval, in Picardy, was reported by the French war office. A minor operation by the French in Moreuil wood gave them 39 prisoners and several machine guns. Various raids southeast of Montdidier and in th^, Woevre region netted some prisoners and material.
DISMISSAL IS ASKED.
Motion Filed In Circuit Court to Free Men Under Indictment. Attorney Louis Reichmann went before Judge Pqlliam in Circuit Court Saturday and fllec\ a motion for the dismissal of the case against Russell Kennedy, who was indicted with Buster Clark and Eddie Gosnell on four counts charging conspiracy to commit burglary, on the grounds that the defendant has lain in jail during two terms of court without the state talcing any action in the cases. A plea of guilty was withdrawn prior to the filing of the motion.
Like motions are to be filed in the cases of Karl Jeffers and Chester Brandon, who were indicted by the sume September term grand jury, Jeffers on ten counts and Brandon on six counts of the same charge as Kennedy. The men have been in jnil nine months. Harry Barker, another defendant in the alleged canspaacy and •'fence" cases, is out on bond and similar action will follow in his case.
When questioned on the matter, Prosecutor Horsley said he had nothing to do with the cases up until Friday when Special Deputy Prosecutors O'Mara and Piety were dismisped. He says they have all the evidence in the cases and as they had complete charge of the matter including the securing of the indictments. Attorney Piety says he has nothing to say, that the defendant entered a plea of guilty and he does not believe the accused can now be discharged.

Fiscus was employed by the company to deliver coke, and is said to have sold a load of coke and became intoxicated on the money.
Killed--By Pershing
PARIS, April 10— (By Mail.)—The French papers delight in anecdotes of the good relations oetween the American soldiers and the peasants. One of these stories, with which General Pershing's name is coupled, is printed this week. "A big American military automobile tore through a French village on its way to an American camp," says s Lyons paper. "Unfortunately, a pig belonging to an old peasant woman strayed into the path of the car and was killed. The old lady was heartbroken. But a few days later a letter came for her, enclosing a check for a hundred francs, and saying how sorrj the writer was for the death of th Pig. "The signature was that of General Pershing." c-s

I am going to consult the city attorney immediately, and do as much to stop the Mormons' work in Terre Haute as my authority permits me to do."
Mayor Hunter was incidentally an interested spectator during the trial of Lewis G. Elsworth, the young Mormon elder who was recently convicted of disturbing a meeting held in the Central Presbyterian church by A. C. Latimer, the reformed Mormon high priest, who is making a tour of the country under the auspices of the National Reform association.
Book Teaches Polygamy.
Rev. W. L. Ewing, pastor of the Centenary Methodist church, chairman of the Terre Haute Ministerial association, and chairman of the social service committer of the church federation, said in regard to the matter, "I have an exact copy of the Mormon Book of Covenant which is their only bible. In this book it plainly states that a Mormon may have as many as ten wives if he so chooses and desires. The activities against the Mormons should not be looked upon as restrictions of religious liberty, but as restrictions of the promotion of an institution that teaches polygamy and immorality, which is also contrary to' the laws of the land. These meetings have been stopped elsewhere the same as in Anderson and why should they be permitted to run here?" "In the articles on Mormonism which I have in my possession the quotation taken from the Book of Covenant is as follows: 'And again as pertaining to the law of the priesthood: If any man espouse a virgin and desire to espouse another, and the first give her consent then he is Justified. And he may have ten virgins given unto him by this law he cannot commit sin for they belong to him, therefore he is justified.'"
Pastor Quotes Evidence.
Another local minister who does not care to be quoted, sent the following testimony of Frances M. Lyman, given during the trial of Joseph F. Smith, who" was tried before Judge Richie at Salt Lake City, on a charge of polygamy

Now is the Time lor You to Open a Charge Account
Hundreds of Terre Haute's best dressed women use our modern charge account system. They prefer it to the thirty-day/account .of the cash stores, where they want their money the first of each month, whether convenient or not. Our system is used by the women who will not tolerate the exorbitant prices of the regular installment stores.
tlier, "If the teaching of polygamy is not taught in the Mormon Book of Covenant then I am unable to read. Why should Terre Haute be made the] goat in this matter. Why not let our' children live clean and be taught the things that 'we know are right.'
Rev. Richmond Talks.
Rev. L. O. Richmond, of the Central Presbyterian church, in which the disturbance was precipitated during the exposure of Mormonism by A. C. Latimer, and which resulted in the arrest of Mormon elders for disturbing the meeting, says in 'regard to the. holding of the meetings and the prac tice of permitting the Mormons to cir- i culate their literature and teach thei.' doctrines in Terre Haute: "My objection to Mormonism is based upon information received from three sources. First, the Reed Smoot trial. The information gleaned here is quoted in the congressional record and may be read by every one. My second reason is that ex-Senator Cannon,1 of Utah, was at one time a member and possibly an official of the Mormon cl'urch. Next, A. C- Lattijier, who lectures under the auspices of the National Reform association, in which association I have implicit confidence, made the revelations ne did while here. "I cannot see where our community will be benefited by the Mormorv propaganda or by permitting them to hold sway here with their presenoe or meetings."
BOYS IN TROUBLE.
Three West Terre Haute Lads Arrested on Serious Charge. What is believed by Marshal Frost of West Terre Haute to be a gang of youthful burglars was taken into custody Saturday night. James Wright, 18 years old, and Oscar Elliott, 16 years old, were arrested early Saturday evening on a charge of burglarizing several West Terre Haute stores recently. When brought to the local police station and examined by Captain Jones, the two boys at first denied all knowledge of the robberies, but later broke down and gave the names of several youths who had assisted them in the work.
Harland Beck, 15 years old, was irt^ plicated by the two boys and arrest jf l.»y Frost. When brought to the police station he denied their story. Several other boys implicated by the pair had not been apprehended by Marshal Frost early Sunday morning, but it was announced that several other arrests would follow. The boys arrested Saturday night were sent to jail, charged with burglary.
