STINTS STATE, BUT NOT SELF, DAVIS CHARGES From Page One.) 50 per cent upon behalf of the public and In the same breath has endeavored to get the permission of the State board of accounts to collect a 100 per cent fee for himself in the very same cases. In all fairness to the State board of accounts, I am glad to say that he was refused permission to settle these cases in this unlawful and unconscionable wav. TELLS OF OTHER SIMILAR CASES. This is not all. On Sept. 10, 1019, the Ktpnblican prosecuting attorney filed a suit upon a forfeited bond of sl.*>oo for the State of Indiana, against Thomas Sterrett, Hyman lunger and Beverly Howard. On Nov. 1, 1919. the prosecutor’s fee \ra fixed at sls and the case, No. 31560, was dismissed Rt the defendants’ cost. On Feb. 3. 1920. the costs aari the prosecutor's fee were paid, and oa March 9, 1920. the Republican prosecutor receipted for his fee. The public got nothing. The defendants were released from paying SI,OOO, to recover which the suit was brought, and the Republican prosecutor got his fee. _ . . . Beverlv Howard, one of the defendants in this esse. Is a well known negro politician In the First ward, now actively engaged in Republican organization work. . „ He is the same Beverly Howard, who, on Ang. 21, 1919, appealed from the City Court upon a charge of keeping a gambling house and was not brought to .trial by the Republican prosecutor in Marlon Criminal Court until July -3, 1920—eleven months later. On June 23, 1919. the Republican prosecutor filed a suit, for the State against Frank Durban and Henry A. Davis to recover SI,OOO upon a forfeited bond given In a blind tiger case in the city court. On Dec. 3, 1919. a lodgment by default for the defendants was set aside and Judgment was entered against the defendants for costs and $25 prosecuting attorney’s fee. This was in case No. 31107. On the same day. the costs, amounting to $6.90, were paid and on March 23. 1920, the $25 fee for the prosecutor was paid, and It was receipted for by the Republican prosecutor on April 9, 1920. The public got nothing but the Republican prosecutor got a fee of $25. On July 30, 1920, the Republican prosecutor filed a suit for the State In tho Clrcut Court against Clarence Ax and our notorious friend. Lorenz I.eppert. upon a forfeited bond for SI,OOO. This bond b?d been given for vehicle taking and grand larceny. On Sept. 9, 1920. the defendants in this case No. 33011, were ruled to answer and no steps have been taken since that time. Does the Republican prosecuting attorney intend to proeecute this case against Leppert? If so, why doesn't he show some further Interest in it? On April 10, 1919, the Republican prosecuting attorney filed a suit for the State against Dan O. Evors and Louis Cohen, upon forfeited bonds for gambling, visiting gambling bouses and assault and btttery. , WHThis suit was filed in the Marion Superior Court, numbered A-5255. On Sept. 23, 1919, it was dismissed by Judge Hay for want of prosecution. I ask the Republican prosecuting attorney to explain to the public why he refused to prosecute this case; PROMISES TO CITE OTHER EXAMPLES These are just a few of the many example* which I can and from time to time will give to the public which clearly explain what the Republican prosecutor meant when he said the Leppcrf judgment was settled upon a 25 per cent basis in the “customary manner.” It has quite apparently been bis practice to relieve professional bondsmen from the payment of the amounts due the State, but it is equally apparent that he has been more zealous in the collection of his own fees than be has been in bringing money into the public treasury.

EDOUARD BET, IN', PHOTOGRAPHED SINCE REACHING UNITED STATES.

Edouard Belln, French Inventor of telephotography, has come to the United States to demonstrate for American business men and Government officials tne possibilities of his invention. He asserts his device can transfer “legible'’ photographs by telephone hundreds of miles. He already has sent pictures of Generals I’ershlng and Mangln 270 miles from Paris to Lyons, lie expects to attempt a test from New York to San Francisco while in the United States. If I am elected prosecuting attorney I will compromise no Judgments upon forfeited bonds because the Governor, alone, has this right, and it U unlawful for the prosecuting attorney to make any compromises of these judgments. Furthermore, I will not tske any more than the law allows in fees in these cases. This is a docket fee of $lO, for each case, and 10 per cent of the amount recovered. If I am elected I will collect the Leppert judgments upon which there is a balance of $1,500. Inasmuch as I am a candidate for office in Merlon County. 1 am, of coarse, particularly interested in local party success and inasmuch as 1 am quite familiar with the gross mismanagement of our county affairs by the Republican machine with the resulting high taxes. I am naturally eager to talk upon tho local issues of the campaign, but I would be faithless to myself if I did not earnestly ask all to put their respect for party ties beneath their hope for the peace and happiness of the world and to vote for the League of Nations, the greatest moral issue of all times, and its sterling exponent.. Governor James M. Cox. On Nov. 2, men and women of this country will vote for peace sr war. ♦Senator Harding has removed all doubt about it, because in his most recent utterance upon the subject of the League of

Nations he has declared himself to be definitely against it. The result should be, and I believe will be, a great Democratic victory, nationally and I 6lncerely trust and believe that Marlon Com ty will do its full duty to giving to Cox and Roosevelt a sufficient plurality to it sure their victory in Indiana. ‘Vag’ Wins Freedom; Calls Judge ‘General’ KANSAS CITY', Oct. 12.—“ Ernest you’re charged with vagrancy,” spoke Judge John M. Kennedy In North Municipal Court as he looked down from the bench upon Ernest Steveus, a stage hand. "Whatcha got to say for yourself?” “Captain, it's this way—l’ve been workln’ bard at the theater, major for several months now, and, colonel, I’ve “Com-pan-e-e. whoal” shouted Judge Kennedy. “Whoa before you promote me to an admiral upon the bounding sea. “Y'ou've got more nerve than a whole regiment. ‘Fall out —you’re dismissed." At the last welcome command Ernest squared his sbouders. gave a snappy salute, bit out a military “Thank yon, general.” did a perfect about face and retreated hurriedly from the courtroom. WASTED LIFE. “Inventors seldom reap the fruit of their toll.” “That's a fact.” “The seedy man who just borrowed a dollar from me is an inventor.” “What did he invent?” “A cocktail.”—Birmingham Age-Herald.
