CLIQUE GETTING COUNTY G. 0. P. IN DEEP W ATER Scandal Worse Than That at Jail May Be Expected From Methods. If the republicans of Marion county <io not wake up between now and May 4 to the fact that they hare been deceived for the last seven years in the character of the men who are leading their party in Indianapolis there will eventually come an expose in one court or the other that will make the jail scandal look like a mere ripple on placid waters. For the same interests and the same • oterie of men who are today responsible for the appalling conditions that xist in the county jail are planning o retain their hold upon the republican organization in Marion county and to direct the control of the county ofTices from the republican county headquar. i rs in the future as they have in the cast. Only the united effort of the republicans of this county who do not conone such things as the murder of in,:m men In the county jail can prevent she same old gang from dominating the republican party in the primaries ot May 4. Harry Hendrickson. republican county chairman, is the absolute political tool ot George V. Coffin and Charles O. Dodson, two ex-sheriffs of Marion county whose conduct of the county jail was no more human than that ot “Honest Boh" Miller, which is now being brought to light in the federal court. Sheriff Coffin fed prisoners the same foul food that Miller has been feeding them. Sheriff Coffin permitted favored prisoners to come and go from the jail in the same manner as Miller has. Sheriff Coffin perpetrated the same frauds on the United States in the collection of money for the feeding of prisoners that Sheriff Miller has perpetrated. COFFIN' SUCCEEDED BT SHERIFF DODSON. Sheriff Dodson succeeded Sheriff Coffin when that versatile gentleman retired to become Charles W. Jewett s •‘best police chief in the country." He went into the sheriff's office with an agreement to split the emoluments of that office with Coffin. Sheriff Dodson fed the prisoners the same kind of swill that Sheriff Miller has fed them. Sheriff Dodson permitted favored prisoners to come and go as they pleased, Just as Miller has. Sheriff Dodson perpetrated the same kind of fraud on the United States government in the collection of money for feeding federal prisoners as his predecessor and his successor. Today, these two men. enriched by the money they grabbed while filling public offices, are in control of the republican county chairman. This puppet of theirs in the republican organization will attempt to name the election boards that will count the votes the people of. Marion county cast in this coming primary. Already hey have decreed that no represen ratio n.pn tbtvff’ boards will be given to those republicans who. have bad the courage to oppose the re-election of lien drickson or"some other tool of Coffin and Dodson to the chairmanship. BOAST THEY CAN CONTROL COt NTY' C. G. P. Already these men have declared their ability and intention of controlling the next county organization of the republican party. They have not divulged just how they expect to control it, and from their past record in party politics it is not likely that they pttr will reveal the ins and outs of their control over indi- . viduals. - But they have the- nstmey. taken through one method -ua*t- another froth the taxes paid by the citizens of this community, and they will use what money is necessary and what other means they find advisable to elect precinct committeemen who will elc-t a county chairman who will take his or ders from them as Mr. Ilendriekson :s now taking them. Are the republicans of Marlon county satisfied with the domination of their organization by thee two men? In the last few months thousands of them have expressed disgust with it and have endeavored to form an organization to wrest control from Coffin and Dodson and the Influences behind them. These opponents of this ring control have been known among the politicians as the “anti-Jewett crowd,” They have been denounced by the Indianapolis News as a rart of the “sinister influences” that were seeking to dis credit the “good citizenship" faction, a faction represented by Coffin, Alvah J. Fucker, Bob Miller and Jim Collins, Carlin Shank and Leo K.‘Fesler, whose misconduct in the auditor’s office became so serious that It resulted In a grand Jury whitewash that smelled as foul as the grand jury reports on the jail! NEWS HOLDS COFFIN IN HOLLOW OF HAND. The News holds George AY. Coffin In the hollow of its hand. It has had in its possession a photograph of the famous check which Coffin took from Josepn Foppiano and it knows the story of how rhia check was recovered for Coffin in return for the privilege of operating a gambling house in Indianapolis while Coffin was “the beat chief of police” in. the country, according to the public utterances of Mayor Charles AY. Jewett. Whenever the News wishes to pull the reins on the county organization it has only to send word to Coffin to perform. He performs through his power over Harry Hendrickson, county attorney and county chairman. It ta through the manipulations of these men, these men who datye not stand tor decency In politics If they would, that the News retains Us control over the destinies of the repnblican party in Marion county. Naturally, any republican who ■las the conrage to speak out against such insufferable conditions is a part of the “sinister influences" which that organ of a few can not abide. The “anti-Jewett organization" is facing the fight of its life in this primary. If the republican primary is not cor--upted in the same manner that the last city election was corrupted in the interest of Charles W. Jewett when he v’a a candidate for mayor, the “antiJewett organzation” will win control o? the republican party from the ring that made possible the corruption in the je.iL But the ring has the whip hand. It controls the chairman who will appoint the election boards. This chairman has already refused to give representation to the “anti-Jewett organization." Perhaps there is no justification for the belief that the old ring expects to retain control of the county organization by corrupting the republican primary. lut why should it refuse representation on the primary boards to Its opponents?

STATE PAYS HIGH FOR POOR PAVING (Continued From Page One.) county obtained for $921) more per mile than was paid by the state: 1. A road pavement two feet wider. 2. A pavement reinforced with steel. 3. A pavement consisting of a first course the equal if not better than that obtained by the state. 4. A paTenient with a two-inch top service course of hard material capable of withstanding more traffic than any highway yet built by the state commission. This vast excess cost of paving when it Is done by the state over the cost when it is done by the county can be attributed to plain inefficiency or worse on the part of the highway com mission of Indiana, whose expenditures are ail subject to the approval of Gov. James P. Goodrich. It might lie argued that state highways are less easy of access than those in Marion county and the costs of transportations of material Is greater, but this argument will not hold water because: 1. Marion county has long been known ns a county In which road building costs are higher than in any other county of Indiana. 2. In many places whore the state roads were built the sources of material art' more accessible than in .Marlon county. 3. The state offered trucks at a rental of $5 a day to contractors in which to transport their materials. 4. Labor gets a lower rate for road work in any other county than Marlon. 5. The whole cost of transporting material on the state roads was not equal to the $(5,191 difference a mile between the state and county roads.

WOMEN DEMAND JAIL REFORMS (Continued From Page One.) mation concerning other county officials in connection with the jail scandal. Miller Informed Marshal Storen that he was not the only one responsible for the Jail mess and that he did not intend to take all of the responsibility. It was brought out in federal court that there was a shirking of duty ou the part of county commissioners at the Jail and they are said to be in some measure partially responsible for the shocking conditions. Under the statutes the commissioners are required to inspect the jali nt least once every three, months, but there is no record of such an inspection having ever been made. Efforts of republican leaders to get Miller to withdraw from the party ticket and thus enable them to dodgo the responsibility of the jail scandal were met with decided opposition today, and Miller insisted that he would continue ta make the race in spite of efforts to shake him off.
Miller's attitude in federal court during the Jail Investigation was considered, in a way, as a plea of guilty to the astounding charges made against 1:1m by federal prisoners. Neither the sheriff nor his attorney, Charles S. AA'lltsie, made any attempt to present a defense, although given several opportunities to do so. After the first day’s hearing Judge Andersou asked the sheriff If he had any defense and if so to present it. but nothing was offered to offset the stories of cruelty, robbery, graft and lawless ness in the Jail as told by federal prisoners. Again, nt the close of yesterday’s session of court, Miller was Invited to present a defense, but had none to offer. He said, outside of court, that he was not responsible for all the deplorable conditions as exposed, but mused to offer testimony in his own defense in federal court. The grand Jury, which goes into a session next Tuesday, will probably take up the scandal and make a thorough investigation of Jail conditions. The testimony yesterday of William F. AA’ilson. former jail guard, threw a bomb into the republican political camp and caused a great deal of pussyfooting and worriment today. AVilson guve some “inside information" on the system of Marlon county politics that brought to light methods of “helping the boys” along, and also told of threats made in an effort to keep him from talking to federal officials “I have been shadowed nud threatened until I am afraid to go out of the house at night," AVilson said, “and 1 am afraid they will try to get me.” The investigation, which bus been delayed indefinitely, will be resumed or. receipt from .Washington of a copy of the contract with Sheriff Miller for keeping federal prisoners in the jail, which hat been sent for by District Attorney Frederick VanNuya. The contract is said to be on file in the office of the United States attorney general and its provisions will boos great Imihsgjtiiire In developments of the federal probe. The Investigation may go even deeper than has yet been revealed, when it is again taken up and It may reach eounty and state institutions.
