THE LEAGUE that Senator Harding says Wilson "scrapped” has now opened its first assembly at Geneva. INCIDENTALLY, while finding a place for Will Hays, would it not be good sense to offer him the job of reorganizing the Democratic party? WHAT IS THE USE of having the State board of accounts define legal fees for the treasurer If the proper officials do not insist that the treasurer collect only those fees that are legal? CHICAGO’S POLICE FORCE is undergoing a shake-up in the interests of efficiency. Indianapolis policemen have just undergone a shake down in the interest of administration candidates. — r — ANNOUNCEMENT that Albert J. Beveridge has accepted several speaking engagements both in Indiana and in neighboring States indicates that he has already launched his campaign for the Republican nomination for United States Senator at the next election. THE STAR, SPOKESMAN for the incoming State administration, feels that “an unusual precedent” would be set if, in the event of a deadlock, an outside man is selected for Speaker of the House of Representatives. The procedure, however, would not be without precedent, for under the Goodrich regime Jesse Eschbach twice stepped from the State board of accounts to the Speaker’s chair after he had forfeited all rights to his seat In the Assembly. Betraying Employers There will, of course, be no objection on the part of the consumers of Indianapolis to any effort by the city administration to lower the cost of living in this city. But the average taxpayers will be slow to give his approval to any such scheme as has been put Into effect through the city purchasing agent's office by which a part of the electorate obtains cheap groceries at the expense of the other part. . The commission men, the wholesalers and the retailers of Indianapolis are taxed to the breaking point to maintain the city government. Nat-! urallv they resent the expenditure of their money in a manner that reduces , the volume of business they may. do in Indianapolis. The purchasing agent of the city Is maintained by the taxpayers generally. "When he ceases to function for the city as a whole and becomes | the purchasing agent of the city employes alone, going Into the market in competition with the taxpayers who support him, he betrays his employers, j We can readily understand why the city administration wished to keep secret its scheme of furnishing groceries at cost to the city employes. In Its last analysis this is a scheme by which a part of the taxpayers are robbed of"their tax money for the benefit of the officials and employes whose sole purpose in office ought to be service to the taxpayers. We can imagine about how long an employe of an auto sales company j would continue on the pay roll after the employer found out that he was 1 directing prospective customers to make their purchases from another dealer. Unfortunately, the taxpayers of Indianapolis do not have the privilege of discharging their employes who neglect their interests. All they can do in the present situation Is voice their protest at the betrayal of their interests and hope that the administration’s negro plurality in Indianapolis will select for them anew set of officials who will have a different conception of their duties to the general public.
Mr. Brown's Errors Demarchus C Brown, representing the State board of charities and corrections, delivered an address at Terre Hante recently In which he demonstrated plainly that he has not the laymen's knowledge of Indiana penal instltutionsMr. Brown said that under the Indiana system "parole depends on j the behavior of the prisoner.” We know from an Inspection of the parole , records of the State that the paroling of prisoners depends on the prisoner’s | ability to get influential pressure on the Governor. Mr. Brown said, “We have abolished the dark cell.” We know from 1 evidence disclosed in the Federal Court investigation of the Marion County 1 jail that the dark cell or dungeon Is used as a punishment for prisoners and has been used as a means of coercing them to give up money to the jailers. Mr. Brown said, “We have abolished convict labor,” but we know that during the present administration convicts were hired out to a mining company in which the Governor's son was financially interested and were compelled to build a railroad and open a mining pit for a private corpora-j tion while working under guard. Mr. Brown said, "We have established a State farm for prisoners guilty I of misdeameanors,” while the records of nearly every Criminal Court in tno State disclose that only on repeated offenses are prisoners charged with misdemeanors sent to the State farm, and & great part of the prisoners oa the farm are felonsIn the course of a very short address concerning our penal institutions j Mr. Brown has set forth four grossly Inaccurate statements. He may have j believed he was enlightening the public as to our penal system, but, in j fact, he was not. His inaccurate statements are merely a reflection of the inefficiency of the State hoard of charities and corrections as it has been conducted under the administration of Governor Goodrich. Eventually those connected with this board will realize that the mere reiteration of statements as to the reforms in our penal,system do not actually produce reforms.
‘Reducing* Our Taxes In 1916 and In 1918 the present administration of Marion County •went before the people and promised them a reduction in taxes. In 1919 the State administration remodeled the tax law and proclaimed it the “best possible law under our Constitution.’' V’hen the tax levy for 1919 was fixed at $1.60 instead of the precedrv>g $2.68, the action was acclaimed as a fulfilment of the party pledge of taxes. The period for the payment of the 1919 taxes closed Nov. 1. Announcement is now made by Treasurer Lemcke that the 1919 taxes collected from Marioa County taxpayers under the $1.60 revenue brought into the county treasurer $1,195,665.99 MORE than was collected for the year 1918 under the $2.68 ievyv. Thus It is proved by the trea'smrer’s own figures that instead of reducing the taxes in Marion County, administration INCREASED them. What really happened was that theSadministration increased the assessments in Marion County to a point Where the actual taxes collected were Increased more than a million dollars!, regardless of the reduction in the levy from $2.68 to $1.60. 1 And the most remarkable feature of the whole deceitful program was that the public was actually deceived into- thinking that taxes had been reduced merely because the tax rate was ’ owered. The assessments on which this increase of more than a million dollars was collected this year will never bV reduced. They will form the basis of the taxes to be collected next year (or the year 1920. But the administration is not content wi an Increase of mrpje than a million dollars over the amount collected beforl\it began to n\fjdl& with the tax laws. ' V. For 1920 the Marion County tax levy has been fixed at $2.42 on\the assessments that bought in more than a million-dollar increase of fl£x money when the levy was only $1.60. Y Six million dollars is the estimated increase in tax income that tlujP administration will collect in 1921. i This sum will be approximately TWICE what the taxpayers gave up in 1919 for the 1918 taxes that were collected with a levy of $2.68. Hence, it will be seen that when the white voters of Marion County, divided about equally between the two old parties, permit the 18,000 negro voters of Marion County to furnish the present oitainist: ation with their plurality, the white voters allowed the electorate of the doubling of their taxes. Doubled taxes constitute a terrific price administration •hat Is made possible by the sup'.r* voters of the balance of poiiticaTj. wer lr^^jarimunity.
MR. HUGO DENIES RESPONSIBILITY
Editor The Times: In your editorial of Saturday entitled “Illegal Tex Fees,” you make two misstatements concerning me. 1. You say in substance that Mr. Sourbler by my advice retained the fees declared Illegal. This is untrue. I was never asked for an opinion about them. These fees w*-re collected by Mr Sourbier’s deputies. They ! simply followed a custom of long standing in the treasurer’s office. Mr. ! Sourbier believed he was entitled to these fees and not doubting his right, there was no occasion for him to consult me about them. 2. You say that Mr. Sourbier returned these fees by the advice of : someone else. This is also untrue. My attention was first called to these i fees after the State board of accounts had made its report and I advised i their return. MARTIN M. HIJGG. The statements In the editorial of which Mr. Hugg complains were as | follows: The Times never believed that Mr. Sourbier accepted a penny to which he did not believe he was entitled. At the time the Illegality of the collection was made public be declared that he had been advised by Martin Hugg, his attorney, that he was entitled to these fees. More recently It appears that Mr. Sourbier has accepted other advice than that he says he obtained from the attorney who later became a director of the Indianapolis News, for announcement Is made that Mr. Sourbier has agreed to return the money charged against him by the accounts board. Even the casual reader will discern that The Times did not “say in substance” that Mr. Sourbier retained the fees declared illegal by advice of Mr. Hugg, but did say that Mr. Sourbier “declared he had been advised by Martin Hugg, his attorney, that he was entitled to these fees.” There is absolutely no doubt that Mr. Sourbier did make this statement. Further, The Times did not in any way assert that Mr. Sourbier “returned these fees by the advice of someone else.” What The times really said was that “more recently it appears that Mr. Sourbier has accepted other advice than that he says he obtained from the attorney." Mr. Hugg is entitled to be set right before the public in regard to his responsibility for the collection of these illegually collected fees and Th Times takes pleasure In printing his letter. But by the same rule under which Mr. Hugg seeks to be set right before the public he should recognize the right of The Times to bo held to accountability only for what it says and not for what he attempts to read into its columns.
WHEN A GIRL MARRIES A \ew Serial of Young Married Life
CHAPTER XCVIII. “Anne! Come here this instant. What does this meapt Come here," called Jlm'a voice Insistentjy. I was In the big closet off the livingroom hanging away the dress I'd worn to Virginia’s dinner—but at the urgent r.ote of Jim's voice, I flung a kimono across my shoulders and hurried Into the bedroom. Jim was standing over at the big chlfferobe where his clothes were kept, ills bock was toward me. and he seemed to he hunched down In earnest study of something. New he swung around and faced me. In his hand was a bit of green pas>er. lie held It out to me accusingly. It was the ten dollars he'd flung at ms that morning—the ten dollars I had put Into the box where hls studs and links were kept. "What does this mean!” he demanded. “Is this the money I gave you for a marcel and a little prettying?” ''Yes," I replied dully—stupidly, wondering even as 1 spoke how 1 was going to make him understand the rejection of hls gift. "Since when do you refuse to take money from your husband?” he cried. ‘‘Since wb*u do you fling back my money at me?” “Oh, Jim—l didn't " “Oh, Jim—l didn’t,” he mimicked. “What do you call this, I'd like to know?” “I put It there—l couldn't take it. Now wait a mlnnte, Jim. I’m tired. A lot has happened tonight. 'l've been worrying about Phoebe -and Neal, and thinking about Pat Dalton, and whether I'd done the best thing by seeing him. I •ea't get back all In a minute to—us.”

I "Indeed! Well, I’ll Just trouble you to keep your hands off my ulster's affairs, until you prove yourself capable of handling your own. A fine muddle you’re In now. Getting Norreys to squander his money on your old canteen—and gutting me In wrong with Torn Mason." Jim's voice got more and more aggrieved as he went on cataloging my misdemeanors and shortcomings. And again 1 feit the iciness of anger turning me Into a hard mold of Indifference. It was easy for me to speak now —I didn't care how my words hurt Jim—l hail no desire to smooth things over and take j the sting out of them. j "One thing at a time, please," I said quietly. "I couldftt take that money because I felt you’d given It to me to buy my approval of your treatment of Tom Mason I simply will not subscribe to that. Ho I put your—bribe—among your things ” I "And then hustled my studs and links Into my shirt so I'd not find It anil raise Cain before Virginia’s dinner," Jim broke In.—Copyright, 1020.

HOROSCOPE “The stars Incline, but do not compel.”
WEDNESDAY, NOV. 17. Caution should be the keynote of this day, astrologers warn. Neptune and Uranus are In malefic aspect, while Venus In adverse. During this rule of the stars a morbid and Introspective state of mind may easily control the judgment, and for this reason a positive and optimistic attitude of mind should be cultivated. For five years astrologers have predicted that the Western coast would present a serious problem, and now they warn again that the Oriental Invasions will assume anew aspect of real danger. This is not a really lucky wedding day. The bride who marries under this sway
