M’CULLOCH FOR BETTER ROADS Tells Renton County Folk About Goodrich. ' Special to The Time*. FOWLER, Ind., Sept. 17—Dr. Carleton B. McCulloch, Democratic candidate for Governor, discussed State issues here this afternoon, paying particular attention to the Goodrich tax law and the extravagance shown by the State Highway Comniisilo*. Hs declared the figures showed that the overhead expense of the highway commission was 46 per cent of the total cost of construction of the roads it is now building. The speaker declared he favored better highways, as set out by the Democratic State platform, but that these roads should be built economically and maintained economicc-lly. He pledged himself to a system of road building on this line. Dr. McCulloch said the Republican leaders who tried to improve the old tax law approached the problem with the wrong motive in view; that the leader* did not care as much for rectifying the faults of the old law as to create a strong central organisation, which would “quietly and Insidiously, end at the eame time effectively, carry control over the taxing units of every county, township and school townehlp In. the State. , “I do not see that the farmers feel kindly disposed toward the present leaders of the republican party in Indiana. “Messrs. McCray, Goodrich and others have, through their taxing boards, placed exaggerated values on lands and farm properties In order to squeeze out excessive taxes. "After the Supremo Court had declared these horizontal increases illegal, these men nullified that decision through tfce obedience of a suservlent Legislature.” The speaker declared that road Improvements, education In the rural districts and other necessary business had been crippled and held back because of the muddle in the tax law. He pledged the support of the Democratic party to Improving this situation. POLICE SECRET ART MARRIES. Lieut Robert Kinsey, secretary to Chief of Police Jerry Kinney, was married at the office of a justice of the peace in Irvington recently, It was learned today. Mrs. Kinsey was formerly Miss Jean Yeider.

A similar' escape was made by a boldup man a few weeks ago and at that time a request was made that the board of safety place bars at the windows of the detention ward, but no action has been taken by the board of safety.
