CITES WHITESIDE CASE IN GOODRICH PARDON CAROUSEL Democratic Candidate for County Prosecutor, Paul G. Davis , Pulls Curtain Aside on Republican Party Methods. QUOTES FROM LETTER TO GOVERNOR Declaring that George A. H. Shideler, superintendent of the state reformatory at Jeffersonville, recommended to Gov. Goodrich that the sentence of Arthur C. Whiteside, who was convicted after the horrible method in which he, as county undertaker, handled the pauper dead was revealed, be commuted from two to fourteen years to one to fourteen years, Paul G. Davis, democratic nominee for county prosecutor, denounced, in a speech in Odd Fellows hall, Hamilton avenue and Washington street, the acquiescence in the abuse of the pardoning power by Gov. Goodrich. Mr. Davis said: v

"Thre is one spot that all mankind keep hallowed —the last resting place of its dead —the grave. Whether It be Christian, Jew or gentile, civilized or barbarian, man has always held sacred the spot where all that is mortal rests .in its last sleep. To commemorate that spot mankind has always placed upon It some mark which all respect and revere. Whether that work be a costly shaft of marble or the humble cross upon which the Redeemer died, all humanity bows in silence and does homage. "EVER HAVE CREPT THERE TO MOI'RN.” ‘‘With bleeding heart and trembling limbs mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, husbands and wives, have crept to that spot and mourned in silence since time immemorial. They have placed on that spot the most costly gifts In human admiration; they have bent their knees and wept; they have poured forth in prayer and on that spot many have laid down and died in grief. So great is the natural instinct to there give vent to grief that dogs have crept to it and laid down their lives on the graves of their masters. "There is one offense at which all mankind shrinks in abhorence. There is one offense which the most depraved can not countenance. It is the desecration of the 9grave for which the human tongue has no name to adequately describe. "Vet, my friends, this is an ofTense that has been committed by a member of the Marion county republican machine, a republican officeholder, the man to whom the republican county officials awarded the contract for the burial of our pauper dead, Arthur C. Whiteside. "it is a fatr inference that the contract was given to him because he had well served Uis party. In its published report of May 14, 1919, the state board of accounts, after making an investigation of this affair, stated that Whiteside buried a dog named "Woody” with the bodies of three babies; that be put bodies In graves ranging from eleven to eighteen inches deep and such that rodents and vermin entered and made nests in them; that be collected money from the county for the burial of person* whose relatives also paid for their burial. REPORT DRAWS BACK HORROR CERTAIN. “This report says In part: “ ‘Before this grave was opened two holes were noticed running from the surface of the ground down into the coffin. 7he top and insides could easily be viewed from the surface, and It was plain to l>e seen tbat these holes ran into the coffin, and It was plain to be seen tbat these holes bad been used by vermin. " ‘We were told by a party that they had "seen groundhogs and a large snake running Into the grave.” This grave, when opened, showed a skeleton which had been too long for the coffin, as the feet had been Jammed down Into the same, and the head had been jammed to the left it was almost turned to tbe shoulder. This had evidently been a rendezvous of vermin, for to the left of tbe skull could be seen a nest made of weed stems and wheat straw gathered from a nearby wheat field. No hox was used to place the coffin In. This was grave No. 38. “ ‘We also opened a grave which contained eleven small bojy>s In which were burled the bodies of eleven babies. The*.’ boxes were exceedingly crude, hand-made lutxes, and eight of them rested on the bottom of the grave and three oil top of the eight.’ “Os the cases for which claims have been filed and allowances made against the county, th report reads: “ ‘We find eleven In which no service whatever was performed by Mr. Whiteside, for the reason that the bodies were delivered by him to the state anatomical board for distribution to various medical (Continued on Page Two.)

Today Is the Day! Mr. and Mrs. Voter , Get Busylßegister! Have You Registered? In order to vote next November you must register. Registration places in each precinct will remain open until 9 o’clock tonight. You will have only one more opportunity to qualify as an elector —on October 4—so it Is best to make certain and register today. If you move between now and October 4, the second registration day, you may re-register on that day. J Indiana women, for tbe first time In the history of the state, registered for an election today. Registration places in each of the more than 3,000 precincts in Indiana ■were opened at S o'clock and voters, men and women, visited them in a constant stream. The efforts of political managers and leaders were centered on getting out a large registration, as they realized that on the registration depends the strength of their parties this fall. In Marion county the registration today and next month is expected to list about 150,000 voters. Women especially turned out in large numbers to register at tbe first opportunity. While registration places were busy, due to the large number of new voters, the crowds were reduced somewhat by the fact that a large number of voters registered In advance, seeing to It that their registration blanks were transmitted to tiieir respective precincts today. Mrs. Edna C. Pauley became the first woman inspector to servo in Indianapolis when she was appointed in place of T. Ernest Maholxn as inspector tn i-he Eleventh precinct of tbe First ward. LOOK INTO RAIL STRIKE CHARGES Federal Officials Investigate Sabotage Complaint. CHICAGO, Sept. 4. Federal officials today started investigation of charges that "outlaw” railroad strikers are de liberately carrying out a campaign of sabotage in an effort to frighten loyal employes into quitting their Jobs. The charges are made by railroad executives.

SLUSH FIGURES ARE UPHELD BY FINDING HERE Indiana G. O. P. Committee Received $94,202 From National Body. BACK UP_COX CHARGES Disclosures that the republican national committee in the 1916 campaign actually paid a total of $94,202.42 to Frank D. Stalnaker, as treasurer of the Indiana republican state central committee from March 14 to Nov. 15, 1916. were found today in sworn campaign reports which j have been on file in the office of County Clerk Richard Sipe. The report also discloses that the total receipts of the republican state central committee for the 1916 cam paign in Indiana were $258,838.29, which includes the $94,202.42 from i the republican national committee, as well as a balance of $650.54 which was on hand March 14, 1916, and | various large sums of money “borrowed” during the campaign. This total of $245,992.66 Is in addition to unpaid bills totaling $23,595.86 at tbe time the report was made. The report of former Treasurer Stalnaker throws much light on tJio charges of Gov. Cox that the total Indianapolis allotment In the conspiracy to buy the presidency this fall Is $123,0U0. LIGHT THROWN ON REPUBLICAN SYSTEM. The republicans contended recently be fore the senate Investigating committee tbat the Indiana allotment for the 1920 campaign was SIOO,OOO, of which $13,000 actually had been raised. Stalnaker's 1916 sworn report also throws considerable light on the system used by the republicans then in swelling their campaign fund. * The report discloses that the state central committee used two methods of getting the cash to put over Charles Evans Hughes in 1916. One way to get the coin In those days, the report reveals, was to receive the money from contributors and tbe other method was to “borrow” It from Will H. Hays, wlio was state chairman, but now is national chairman, and who Is directing the raising of money for the national campaign. According (o the report of Stalnaker. the Indiana republican state central committee obtained “loans” from Will H. Hays on the following dates. Ang. 17, 1916—Loan from W. 11. Hays -$2,084.40. Nov. 4. 1916—Loan from W. 11. Havs, SIO,OOO. Nov. 4, 1916—Loan from WUll 11. Hays, $15,000. LOANS FROM MR. HAYS TOTALED f27.9M.40. The total loans from the accommodating Mr. Hays amounted to $27.!.34.f0, the report indicates. This surprising generosity on tbe part of Mr. Unys is one of the several mysteries of Stalnaker's report. The report shows clearly there were uumerous contributors who were not given a chance to “loan" their money to the republican state central committee in 1916 but gave it out with no otrlngs tied to it. None of these comes under the SI,OOO limit contributions of which the repubiContlnued on Page Two.) BARNS ARE FIRED IN CAR STRIKE Sympathizers Attack Employes and Police. NEW YORK, Sept. 4.—Two surface car* were destroyed and four other* badly damaged by fire In the Ridgewood car barns, Brooklyn, today and s<*> strike ibreakers boused on the floor above the burning ears .were forced to l!ee Into the street, where strike syrapa. thlzers attacked them. Firemen were hampered in putting out the fire and police reserves were forced to fire many ahois before order was -estored. The disturbance followed a meeting of 3.000 strikers at 3 a. m. when Federal Judge Julius Mayer’s "surrender terms’ to tbe strikers were hooted down. Officials of tbe Brooklyn Rapid Transit company declared tbe fire was started by strike sympathizers. When fifteen police began to escort, the strikebreakers from their quarters, strike sympathizer* appeared as if by magic on the top of adjacent, buildings and be gan hurling bricks, torn from chimneys, at the strikebreakers. Both policemen and their charges were injured by missiles. The police began firing Into th air and their shots were answered by the attackers. No one was wounded by gunshot.

JEWETT CROWD FORCED TO MAKE BUDGET CHANGE Efforts to Prevent Public Inquiry Only Partly Successful. C. C. MAN PUTS QUESTION The efforts of the Jewett administration to prevent any general public luqnlry into the estimates contained In the 1921 city budget, recognizable In the failure of officials to advertise anything but the appropriation ordinance containing only the most general of totals and In their failure to prepare more than three complete copies of tbe document, only partially were successful at the public hearing on the estimates before the city council last night. Robert E. Tracy, director of the bureau of municipal research of tbe Chamber of Commerce, who was the only person outaide of the official family to rc- | celve a complete copy of the budget, came to tbe meeting chock full of inquiries. But Mr. Tracy was tbe only citizen who asked a question, aside from one woman who inquired about a matter not contained in the budget and two men who asked one question each. However, Mr. Tracy's work was productive of some beneficial results, for. In the face of tbe fact that almost 100 representative business men and fifteen newly enfranchised women were present, there was nothing left for Mayor Jewett, who was at tbe meeting, and his department heads, to do but to make tbe changes suggested. HAD VERY LITTLE BASIC INFORMATION. Lacking the Information on which to base questions, the business men and women voters were forced to refrain from taking any part In the hearing, other than that of listeners. With one or two exceptions there was nothing vitally interesting to listen to. One of these exceptions waa an illuminating series of questions by councilmen and answers by board of works members and employes about why A. O. Meloy, street commissioner, is permitted i to use a city car, not marked with the city embiAu, ou Sunday. The other exception waa tbe frequent questioning by Mr. Tracy of the advisability of lumping the autna needed for the purchase of new equipment In tbe same fund tn the appropriation ordinance with tbe stuns needed for maintenance and supply. Practically all departments followed this procedure.

An a result of Mr. Tracy’s pointing out that It would lie possible for department heads to upend all of their maintenance and equipment fund for maintenance without spending a cent for equipment, and vice versa. City Controller Robert H. Bryson said he would agree to amend the ordinance go ns to make separate funds for equipment ant maintenance and supply In each Instance.

wear ribbons next week. Really ? Yes, the gang told me so and soma of the pigs are said to favor the blue tibon, but souk* may have to be satisfied with red and white ones. There will be hundreds of pigs ou view at the fair next week, i And before I forget it, let me tell you that the pigs, these classy, highbrow pigs, are still following the rule of their ancestors—they are eating at the samt old hog trough. Even the high price of pork has failed to banish this primitive method of eating in the hog family. I said “goodby” and the answer was “oi-eek.” Meaning the “same to you." ©✓. O'-UKf f , jit

Tho tense moment came at the closo of a hypothetical cross-examination ?n which the republican national chairman figuratively sat in tho prisoner's dock and Gov. Cox played the role of prosecuting attorney. I want to put Will Hays on the stan.l today,” tbe governor began, “and ask i him these questions: I “You say there was no quota assigned I anywhere and yet In the official bulletin of Aug. 16 telegrams are quoted stating that ‘Cincinnati business men have underwritten quota.' “ ‘Steubenville, has nearly completed quota.' ‘Toledo actively soliciting to complete quota by Aug. 15.’ ‘Tbe atate of Maine has oversubscribed Its quota 95,000.’ ‘Chattanooga oversubscribed its quota this week.’ “ ‘Large qqotas assigned to Twelfth Indiana congressional district.’ '* ’Northern counties In Colorado have practically raised their quotas.’ “Now, coming more concretely to the question of responsibility, you deny any knowledge of quotas and yet Fred H. Upham, treasurer of the republican national committee, in the official bulletin, Aug. 16, says that; Amounts sought In each community' j were a part of ’the campaign of general | subscription initiated by Will H. Hays and carried through by tbe treasurer'* office.' “If you told tbe truth on the stand under oath, then Mr. Upham in his offi clal capacity misrepresented you. This contradictory circumstance shows that. you are either a perjurer or Mr. Upham is a falsifier.” i Tbe governor paused a mement, then continued with the manner of a judge pronouncing sentence: “If the latter be true, then It 13 your duty to discharge him as treasurer. If you do not do so then the American people can draw their own conclusion.” Senator Harding also came In for a grilling at the hands of the democratic candidate during his discussion of tbe league of nations. Declaring It was possible for Harding, ns senator. to escape 1,161 quorum and roll call*, Cox said: "But you can not do | cither as candidate or as president,” and called upon the republican candidate to I explain tbe meaning of the latter's giate- [■ tbat be •would put teeth” intn tt * I Hague tribunal. "Senator Harding.” said the governor, “in your speech of Aug. 28. you say. i'M hat then becomes of the argument that congress, not tbe prealdent, might keep us out of war?’ "Technically, of course. It could do so. Morally, with an equal certainty, it could not do so, nor would it ever do so. The American people would never permit * repudiation of a debt of honor.” FITS TWO DIRECT QUESTIONS TO HARDING. “‘Congress would never dare make this nation appear as a welcher. as It would appear and would be in such au event before the eyes of the world.’*' “Answer to this. Senator Harding, yes c-r no: % “Do you mean that you are opposed to our assuming any moral obligation in our International relations?’ “Then, in the same speech, yon say: “ ‘lt is not uncommon for the advocates of the league of Versailles to contrast unfavorably The Hague tribunal, upon the ground tbe tribunal lacks teeth. Very well, let's put teeth into It.’ “I’lease answer, yes or no in. the face of your statement, to this question,” said Cox. "Docs tba putting of into it mean the assuming of an obligation to exert moral or physical force, or both? "Iu one part of your speech, you say that this nation will not be able to appear as a ‘welcher’ because no obligation will he assumed. How do you reconcile this with your program of ‘putting teeth’ into The Hague tribunal? "This approaches tbe very crux of the whole argument and the American people are entitled to know your mind. There can be no evasion. “It was possible In the senate for you to escape 1.161 quorum and roll calls, but you can not do It either as a candidate or as president. You must answer yes or no. “Executive duties, unlike legislative, make either absenteeism or clear evasion Impossible." Gov. Cox lauded Theodore Roosevelt as one of the original supporters of the league of notions' idea, and quoted from the late president's oratios before the Nobel peace prize committee in 1910 to prove his contention that Roosevelt favored a league of nations whose membe/s should not only agree to keep peace themselves, but should also use force to compel other nations to respect its dictates. En route to Milwaukee, the governor spoke from the rear platform at Kenosha and Racine. As the train pulled out of Kenosha, he said: “I leave you with this parting injunction : ‘Vote as our boys shot —to end the war.’ ” Eneournged by a series of sixteen en tbuslastic receptions in Michigan yesterday, Cox said be was eager to invade all states usually considered republican strongholds. Despite his sixteen speeches the governor finished his last address at Kala<Continued on l’nge Eleven.) OPEN LETTER TO ALEXANDER TAGGART, Member Board of Safety.
