LOSH PRESENTS HIS VERSION OF MAYOR’S DUTIES Says He Would Bring Office Back to Position of Honor. DEPLORES THE TRIVIAL "Unhampered and unfettered I could. If elected, go Into office absolutely free to devote my whole time to the proper discharge of my official duties,” declares John IV. Losh, candidate for the Democratic nomination for mayor, in a declaration of principles offered to the public today. Mr. Losh says that it would be his aim to bring the office of mayor back to the point where it could truthfully be regarded as a position of high honor and trust. He deplores the fact that so many frivolous demands are made on the mayor’s time that he has little left in which to sleep and perform the duties which he was elected to perform and states that if he is mayor he will not be available for "balls, banquets or other night meetings." WOULD DISPENSE WITH TRIVIAL MATTERS. “I should do away with the useless habit that has grown up about the mayor’s office of so many dates and discussions of trivial matters, because the time of the mayor who wants to do things Is in constant demand for necessities and essentials,” he states. “An hour each day would be the maximum for visiting. In short, I should conduct the official business strictly along business lines, without fear, favor or partiality to the end that the greatest good be accomplished for the greatest number.” He says that the public does not get “a servant who will serve” because it has not indicated that it desires such h man and that for this reason men "of ablity and sincerity refrain from seeking what should be. but what no longer Is, the high honor of mayor.” The undignified scramble of the three leading Republican candidates for the mayoralty nomination for the negro vote is pointed out in Mr. Losh's statement. "It is said and election returns seem to bear It out, that minus this negro vote the Republicans of this good town of ours are 6.000 in the minority.” "NAUSEATING PROSPECT.” Blame for what he terms a "nauseating prospect” is placed upon the public which allows it to exist, in the statement. "The public has set the pace. It practically has said in so many words to the aspirant of its choice: ‘Get the votes. Get them honestly if you can, but get the vqtes! Let nothing stand in your way of getting the votes. Be long in promises. Promise anything. M aive all semblance of honesty and honor. Just promise. * * * Make promises no self-respecting man would think of. Give ’em the glad hand. Hand 'em profuse bouquets of promises. It is expected and woe is yours if you disappoint.’ "We keep the mayor busy much of the time welcoming delegations or conventions or with meetings of this local movement or that,” says Mr. Losh. "We confiscate his nights by expecting, rather demanding, his presence at this or that concert, ball or banquet. A conscientious performance of his official duties requires all of his time daring the day, and if he is to be fit for his next day’s duties nature demands that he devote his nights to repose and rest. But if he has the temerity to suggest the need of time for the performance of his duties and the need of rest at night, if

he only indirecty pleads these needs by way of an excuse to be relieved of aforesaid afflictions, we become intolerant, of fended and abusive, and there you are.” Mr. Losh puts his pledges In the form of a statement of a hypothetical candidate, in answer to a question from the public. The answer Mr. Losh puts into the month of his character includes the following: "My purpose would be to put the best of my life into the term of my occu pancy. To labor early and late always with on eye single to the lightening of the awful, the almost unbearable burdnes under which the taxpayers are now being penalized, and I am confident that much could be accomplished along these lines.” Such a candidate would in no event "make the customary primary election canvass for a nomination, regarding, as I do, our so-called primary election system a delusion and a snare conceived in sin, brought forth in iniquity and designed to fool the people by and through which system it developes ever and anon that the longest purse achieves the greatest results.” No inducements or promises of any nature would be held out by such a candidate, Mr. Losh says. “Such things, absolutely wrong in precept, contribute to a greater extent to a mayor’s failure to measure up than anything else and the damage and injury often done to both sides of a transaction are in most cases irreparable.” He says he would not "fall for” every hobby that comes along. “The ever growing and almost unbearable public burden now bearing down on the taxpayer calls for a determined stand for real economy, and because nothing will tend to a surer, more effective encouragement of prospective home owners, prospective taxpayers, than tangible evidence that the awful penalization now extant shall cease. "To this end I promise to be a serant who serves, sans extravagant hob-

bies, sans exploitations, sans expensive whims.” Enforcement of the law, better civic pride, moral city welfare and an efficient business administration of the city affairs are the planks on which Mr. Losh says his platform is constructed. Charges Man Took Daughter From Home John Mounts, 33 South Davidson street, caused the arrest last night of Harold Fairchild, 21, 2601 Churchman avenue, who is held on the charge of vagrancy under a high bond while the police conduct an investigation. Mounts charged that his daughter, Ester Mounts, IS, was enticed from her home on Christmas day by Fairchild and that he took her to Kokomo where they lived for a time and later took her to Chicago. A marriage license was obtained there, it is said, but Fairchild and the girl were never married Mount told the police. She was taken to Waukegan, 111., and later returned to Chicago where Mount charges Fairchild deserted her. Richmond Plans for Indianapolis Parade Special to The Times.

HOOSIER HERO'S SACRIFICE TOLD Baxter Gave Up Life That Married Comrades Might Live. Special to The Times. GREENSBURG, Ind., April 15.—The story of how William Baxter of Adams, Ind., willingly sacrificed his life on the field of battle that two wonnded comrades whom he knew to be married and with families awaiting their return might be saved was told yesterday by a comrade when Baxter's body was buried in his home town nearly four years aftei he enlisted in his country's service. The story goes that Baxter was wounded, though not fatally, his knee having been torn by machino gun fire. He sought a position where he would not be exposed to the enemy fire to await medical aid. Ha was lying in position with two wounded comrades, members of his company. When the ambulance arrived, Baxter saw there was not room for all and insisted that the two men with him be taken first, and he could be cared for later. During the absence of the medical detachment, a detachment of buns lame upon the wounded soldier and cruelly inflicted mortal wounds with their bayonets.

Rheumatism A Remarkable Home Treatment Given by One Who Had It In the year of 1833 I was attacked by Muscular and Sub-Acute Rheumatism. I suffered as only those who are thus afflicted know for over three years. I tried remedy after remedy, but such relief as I obtained was only temporary. Finally, I found a treatment that cured me completely and such a pitiful condition has never returned. I have given It to a number who were terribly afflicted, even bedridden, some of them seventy to eighty years old, and the results were the same as In my own case. I want every sufferer from any form of muscular and sub-acute (swelling at the Joints) rheumatism, to try the great value of my improved "Home Treatment” for its remarkable healing power. Don’t send a cent; simply mail your name and address, and I will send It free to try. After you have used It. and it has proven itself to be that long-looked for means of getting rid of such forms of rheumatism, you may send the price of it. One Dollar, but understand I do not want your money unless you are perfectly satisfied to send It. Isn't that fair? Why suffer any longer, when relief is thus offered you free. Don't delay.
