John Sharp Williams has sounded a warning- to the effect that if the Republicans do not do something, the Democrats will.

As soon as congress adjourns and order has been restored in California, President will begin to lay this season's crop of cor nerstones.

From force of habit, the pub lie naturally expects an early announcement of the history of the San Francisco fire by Murat Halstead.

Maybe the Senators should have larger salaries, as J. Adam Bede says, but the fact remains that some of them would come high at any figure.

TRUSTEES TAKE NO ACTION.

Future of the Association Still Hangs in the Balance.

Uneasiness still' prevails among members of the Action Park Association. The trustees failed to report anything favorable at the May meeting, held Tuesday at Action Park, and asked a continuance until May 17 to make a final report.

It is now thought that the #5,000 indebtedness will be raised by May 17 and rebuilding begun immediately after. Several of the trustees favor the sale of the property and the disbanding of the association, but the stockholders are determined to raise the debt and hold the camp grounds. The anxiety to rebuild brought the larg attendance of any May meeting for a number of years and many old trustees signified a willingness to take stock in the camp ground at $100 a share and it is probable this plan will be adopted to raise the indebtedness.

The plan to hold an old time camp meeting this summer meets with universal favor among the old timers. "We are going to have an old time camp meeting this summer and let God have His way said an old time tenter yesterday. "This up-to date Chautauqua isn't what we want here," Even the younger tenters are enthusiastic at the hopes of a "real" camp meeting.

Members of the association who do not pay their ground rent as in previous years will thereby forfiet their leases, and will not be given the privelege of rebuilding on the same location those who do pay ground rent may use tents on the camp ground this summer without ex tra charge.

Dr. J. W. Dashiel, who is now president of the association, was elected fop the thirteenth time last August, and has been untiring in his efforts to keep the association in existence.

Further. Complications -Arise Among Sixth Democrats.

A few days ago the Jacksonian announced that the Sixth district Democratic congression al convention would be held at Greenfield on May 30th, says the Rushville Republican, and also published the official call, signed by Sylvester Meek, chairman of the district. The same announcement was made in other papers.

County Chairmans Ryan, of Decatur county, refused the call for that date, but the Greensburg ^iNews says: "District* Chairman Meek says that there' was a mistake in calling any] meeting at Greenfield, and further says that the mistake has been rectified and that the convention will be held on May 31."

It seems a row is on in the Sixth district Democracy, and the fight is simply a reflection from the fight that is bein waged over the State between the Taggart and anti-Taggart Forces. Chairman Meek has said that the meeting for May 24th was a "misunderstanding,'' and now he says the meeting of May 30th was a "mistake -1^

MAYOR'S MENACING MISSIVE.

He Deceives Letter in Early Death is Predicted.

1

Which

Mayor Bookwalter, of Indianapolis received a letter yesterday purported to be from an Italian who was planning for the mayor's death. But the city's executive was not frightened.

:I would like to know." he said, "whether the man intends to use a knife or a gun. It would be interesting to know in advance."

The letter was written on what appeared to be a piece 'of a paper bag and was written with a pencil. Evidently complaint was made because the East Market site was to be used for the proposed auditorium^ the writer having the impression that the market was to be done away with. The letter was: ft" "Charles Bookwalter: Your doomed, in 2 weeks or 3 you will be shot you lied to us italions. You take away our market and you lied when we did elect you all the Peoples in the city wanted market, but you take money and put in your pocket and now your brains will be blowed oud hope you are ready to meat God be on your guard." "M i."

Amusements.

Since Texas Sweetheart was produced over two years ago, other plays, similar in title, have appeared. However, this is the original, City Scenic Production, with those splendid artists, Alan Villair and Pearl Lewis in the leading parts. They have made a big hit wherever they played and managers, press and public all agree that this an attraction worth seeing. It is now playing return engagements to larger receipts than ever and is good for seasons to come as a money maker. The story is intensely interesting from start to finish, interspersed with rich, clean comedy and refined specialties. You laugh, cry and applaud. This is the only company presenting this play and the leading parts are in the hands of the leading people for whom they were especially written and consequently they are played consistently and naturally. Alan Villair as "Jack Harvey" is splendid and Pearl Lewis as "Texas Raymond" is as clever as she is pretty, ^nd with her luxuriant hair hanging loose, about her shoulders she is about as "stunning" as any on the American stage. This splendid attraction appears for one night only at the opera house, Saturday, May 5.

TAX PAYERS

•-&

Please Take Notice of Orders from the Auditor of State and act accordingly, Please see copy of Letter:i V1*

Dear Sir:—There is a custom on the part ol the County Treasurers in some of the counties of Indiana to continue to collect taxes after the First Monday in May and after the First Monday in November, without adding the penalty provided in Section 8570, Burns'Statutes, Revision 1901, and acts of 1897. paije 162

This custom is wrong, and after this date all County Treasurers must close their duplicates for the collection of the lirst installment of taxes after the first Monday iu May, and for the collection of the second installment after the first Monday in November and take no taxes thereafter without adding1 and at the same time collecting the penalty as provided in the above named section.

It is the intention of the State.Auditor to have this section enforced and any County Treasurer, in the future, violating this law will be forced personally to pa}r the penalties which he has failed to collect, as provided in said section.

After the first Monday in May and after the first Monday of November in each year, the Treasurer will as soon as possible, turn over the duplicates to the County Auditor, so as to enable him afeonce to prepare his settlement sheet for use of the Treasurer in accounting to the State. The Treasurer will be required to make settlement with the State by the loth of June and by the 31st of December of each year as provided by law, .. Very Respectfully,

*1 V" Auditor of State.

Are Well Pleased.

The Richmond Palladium today says: "The commissioners of Hancock count}' are well pleased with the action of the I & E. Traction Company in appealing their case in regard to the annulling of the company's franchise to the United States court. The decision in the case will fix the limits of their power as commissioners of Hancock county over tlfe National road. The commissioners are the representatives of the people, an$ are working for their best interests. The people want more accommodations in the way of better local service and want the drains and crossings properly constructed, and to secure these benefits the commissioners have taken the course that seemed to them the best and surest."

Remember, Monday, May 7th, is the last day for paying taxes, Do not hold us responsible if you go delinquent, as we are compelled to close the books on that day.

WARREN BIGLER,

T. N. JACKSON, Treas.

Demand That Check Be Paid.

Rushville Republican,

Attorneys MeGee & Kiplinger and J. M. Stevens, of this city, have filed another suit that is an echo of the old Arlington bank failure. The attorneys are still trying to settle up the affairs of the bank and they have brought suit against the Nation al Exchange Bank at Anderson to compel payment on a check for $1,250 given* by W. .lones, of that city, an uncle of Oliver O.Jones, the ex cashier of the^ bank, who is under indictment* for embezzlement in the Rush circuit court, and who broke jail's here last year. Jones gave the check in order to assist his. nephew to cover the shortage in the bank's accounts, but afterwards repudiated it. The suit against the bank was filed this week and the complaint alleges that the bank had no right to receive back the money.
