OFFICIALS QUERY YOUTH HELD FOR VEHICLE TAKING Alias 'Kid' McCoy Said to Have Driven Stolen Cars in Three States, Henry Pettigrew, 17, of Anderson, Ind., who gave an alias of ‘‘Kid" McCoy, sat in the Marion County jail today under $5,000 bond on vehicle taking charges while officials of three States and Federal authorities Investigated his case. He was arrested last Wednesday in a Wisconsin car bearing an Illinois license. _ Prosecutor William H. Eemy has ordered the boy held to the grand jury, which convenes .next week, despite claims of the Indiana Boys’ Sthool officials. Pettigrew is a parole violator and escaped from their institution. Federal authorities took a statement from the prisoner with a view of lodging charges of driving stolen autos across the State line. Arrested Eight Times Pettigrew stole a car in Anderson after he escaped from the school, officials say, and drove it to Tomohawk. Wis. There he was arrested while trying to dispose of It, and later escaped. He then stole another car and drove it through Illinois on the return, switching license plates with a car at Rockford, 111., investigators learned. He was arrested eight times on the trip on "suspicion,” he told officials, but each time convinced officers of his innocence. Preliminary Hearing The youth was arrested on the Alii sonville Rd. by D. C. Wells, secret service operative. Wells arrested Pettigrew for shooting on a public highway and became suspicious that the car he was driving was stolen. Pettigrew was given a preliminary hearing before Justice of Peace O. P. Bebiager, Broad Ripple, and pleaded guilty to charges of possessing and driving a stolen vehicle, and was bound over to the grand jury on Remy's orders. Woman Beaten About Head Mrs. Sallie Sayles, 1018 Maple St., was suffering today from head wounds said by police to have been lniflcted by her husband when he struck her Saturday, police say, because she spoke to another man in front of 555 W.

MANUFACTURERS SECRETLY - FOR RAILROAD REGULATION By ROBERT M. LAFOLLETTE’

“MY OWN STORY" is an exclusive newspaper version of one of the great autobiographies of modern times: La Follette'* own story of adventures in polities as written by himself in 1912. together with an authorized narrative of his experiences in the years since then. SYNOPSIS "oFTKEVIOL’S INSTALLMENTS After two defeats as Progressive candidate for Governor of Wisconsin. La Follettc is overwlielmingiy nominated and elected in 1900. The polltiral bosses buck tlie administration program at every turn. La Kollette gives m person his message to the Legislature—advocating direct primaries and railroad taxation. The machine politicians gain control of the Milwaukee Sentinel and through it carry out their attacks on La Follette. While the machine musters every insidious influence to defeat the passage of hills for railroad regulation and taxation. La Follette uses all the power and prestige of Ins office to secure the legislation that was promised the people. It had been a difficult campaign, but illuminating. And that was fortunate, for it was tremendously important to have the issue clearly understood and the voters united upon it. As I have already related, the Progressives had suffered defeat In the Legislature of 1901. All their important measures had , failed of passage. The old machine seized upon this situation to conduct a campaign of unexampled I vigor. Organized in what was called the Eleventh Story League, because they occupied the entire eleventh story of a Milwaukee office building, they spent money without stint. They canvassed the entire State, they purchased the editorial opinions of upward oN£OO Republican newspapers, they Issued many j pamphlets attacking our movement, their speakers were untiring. But in spite of the furious campaign, I was renominated. This result was brought about chiefly, I think, by the publication of a “Voter's Handbook," of 144 pages, in which we set forth the truth about our work, about our plans for railroad taxation and direct primaries, and told specifically by what corrupt methods the Progressives had been defeated in the Legislature of 1901. We printed 125,000 copies of this book and placed it In the hands of influential men In every part of the State. I had not regained my strength when I began my speaking campaign iti Milwaukee. Sept. 30, 1902, but I Improved steadily and spoke every day to tho end of the campaign. “150.000 Pluralyt! Mayor Rose of Milwaukee, the | I democrat who ran against me had the support of the Republican machine: nevertheless I was re-elect-ed by 50.000 plurality. In the course of our campaign we had not only advocated our railroad taxation bills, but we had also endeavored to show the people j conclusively how futile It was to i stop short with laws Increasing railroad taxes when the railroads { could easily turn around and take j back every eont of .that Increase ; by raising their rates. The chief reason for advancing strongly with this issue was a tactical one. I hoped to make j such a hot fight for regulation that before the session was over the railroad lobby would be most happy to let our taxation bills go through. If thereby they could prevent the enactment of a law creating a commission to regulate them. When the Legislature of 1903 met we were overjoyed to find that the Progressives were strong enough to organize- both houses, though our majority In the Senate was very slight. Irvine L. Lenroot was elected speaker of the Assembly. I aimed In my message not to make a general attack upon the railroads, but rather to set forth j the exact conditions regarding railroad rates and services . I presented fifteen statistical tables, carefully prepared, demonstrating the excessive transportation charges imposed by the railroads upon the people of the State. I compared our railroad-made rates with the State-made rates of Illinois and lowa, applying the comparisons to 151 well known railroad towns in Wisconsin, Illinois and lowa, the names of w-hlch I gave, together with the specific rates. I showed that these 151 towns were paying on an average 39.9 per cent more for their transportation charges than towns located at similar distances from markets in ITTtnols and lowa. In this way I got down to the vitals of the subject and laid It all before the people so clearly that no one could get away from It. It went straight home to every farmer and shipper In the State. Here was a farmer making shipments. for example, from Baraboo "my Rheumatism is gone - ” "HP HERE are thousands of you X men and women, just like I j once was — slaves to rheumatism, i muscle pains, joint pains, and horrible stiff. ness. I had / 1%5j \ 4 h ° wrong J . 1 idea about I | rheumatism \ J for years. I \~~ .*/ didn’t realize \ that blood-n-Jjcells had the effect of completely knocking out rheumatic impurities from the system. That is why I began using S. S. S.! Today I have the strength I used to have years ago I I don’t use my crutches any more.” S. S. S. makes people talk about themselves the way it builds up their strength. Start S. S.

to Milwaukee. I showed that he was paying 59.77 per cent more freight- upon certain products than the farmer of lowa paid for shipping the same products exactly the same distance. Lawyers Work Immediately the railroads sent their leading lawyers to Madison to meet my charges. One of them published a brief in wl/ch he took up table by table the figures I had presented and tried to make some explanation or defense. But he could not budge them; they were unanswerable. Nor could my message be assailed as intemperate; it was as dispassionate as a census report. One of their statements gave me a further opening. It was charged that in making my comparisons, I had unfairly selected s ations whero exceptional conditions existed, and that I had done tils to prove my case, the implication being that elsewhere in the State the rates were not discriminatory. I decided, therefore, to get out a special message that should once and for all set the whole matter at rest. With the help of Halford Erickson, .chief of our bureau of statistics, and a crops of clerks, we listed every station on the North-

western and the St. Paul railroads, the two principal roads of the State, and secured the rates for shipping e\’eiry sort of merchandise end commodity between those stations and the markets. Then we got corresponding ra'es and distances in lowa and Illinois and printed them, with the names of the stations, side by side with those of Wisconsin. Having in hand this voluminous material, I worked night after night at th<* executive residence until T wrote a message of 178 printed pages, to which was added many supporting supplementary tables. I sent in this message to the Legislature on April 28, 1903, and it furnished a final and unanswerable demonstration that we were paying from 20 per cent to 69 per cent higher freight rates in Wisconsin than they were paying for exactly the same service in lowa or Illinois. I presented it on the day before the hearings on the bill were open, 'for I was certain that on that day there would be assembled in Madison, at the behest of the railroads, all the big shippers of Wisconsin, And they actually came by the carload, filled all the hotels, thronged the capitol and surrounded the members of the Legislature. They argued, protested, threatened, but

they could not controvert my facts. On receipt of the message the railroad lobby engineered a plan to break the effect of it *by organizing an indignation movement among these big shippers. The meeting, which was held in the State Senate, was a cnt-%nd-dried affair at which resolutions were adopted denouncing my message, particularly and especially denying the statements in it that some of the shippers who appeared to oppose the legislation were in receipt of Special favors or rebates from the railroads. I knew that the statement in my message that some of these shippers had been coerced by the railroad companies into appearing before the Legislature was perfectly true. I had received calls from some of the smaller manufacturers and merchants who told me confidentially that they were there ostensibly to fight the legislation, but wanted me to know, privately, that they were in favor of it, that they were afraid if they did not come when they were summoned by the railroads they would be punished by increases in their rates, delays in furnishing cars, and in many other ways. The railroad regulation bill did not pass at that session, nor did we expect it to pass. But the contest accomplished the purposes we had chiefly in mind.
