TEOSE BAD CROSSINGS
If the grade crossing accident
which cost five lives at St. John on Sunday evening had occurred on the
Ridge Road at Highland the moral
responsibility for it would rest to
some extent on the people there who opposed a viaduct.
It does not require the power
and vision of a prophet to say conndentally that one of these days an
accident will occur there. There are two of a score of bad crossings in Lake county. Something can be
done to lessen the danger on most
of them. The county authorities
were ready to build a viaduct at Highland but some of the property owners for selfish purposes opposed
the improvement saying It would
Ai
BE NOT QUICK TO JUDGE.
A Chicago girl, seventeen years
old, caused the arrest of a publishe
on charges that he lured her into white slavery. Not long ago two
little girls told stories that resulted
in the arrest of a prominent Chicago
business man. Last year a Gary man
the father of several children, wa
arrested as a suspect' in the death of
littel Mary Grubba.
It later developed that the Gary-
man had no connection with th
crime. l esterday the newspapers
printed that the girl who accused the
publisher never saw him before, that her stories were self-confessed llss
and that they resulted from an
abnormal imagination. In the case of the Chicago business man who was
accused of luring the small girls away the truth was revealed when
these girls again became missing and then were located visiting with relatives. Their accusations, upon In
vestigation, turned out to be a tissue of falsehoods. Here are two cases of
psychological mystery that extend to the strange workings of the human mind.
In these three Instances great
harm was done to three innocent
men. Where thousands will read of
their accusation only hundreds will
read of their being cleared. When the Gary man was arrested THE
TIMES printed the story but pur
posely gave a fictitious name know
ing well that police mistakes in a
case like this will blast reputations.
It Is a well known fact that the
minds of women and children are
often prone to singular workings
Any newspaper man who has had po
lice experience has come in contact
with women and girls who labored
under the delusion that they had
been attacked; there are many in
stances self-inflicted wounds to bear
out devilishly ingenious stories.
With these things in consideration
newspapers ought to be slow to print,
police careful of arresting, and the general public more charitable in its views when arrests of this character are made. The human mind Is sub
jected to many forms of mania anil none is so unintentionally hellish as
that which conceives stories that
fade under the strong light of in
vestigation.
TIMES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPITAL.
Indianapolis, Ind., Aug. 28. Gilbert
II. Hendren, head of the state board of accounts, is preparing a book for dls-
rlbutlon among all of the public offi
cials of the state which will be of
great value. In this book he will set out all of the fees that are collected
by every county officials, and it will
show Just what fees belong to the official and just what fees he must turn
into the county treasury. When the
matter is all prepared for the book it will be submitted to the attorney general for his approval, and after he ap
proves it the book will be printed and made ready for distribution.
This book will be Inestimable value
to the county officials, for it will re
move all doubt as to just what fees they are entitled to and thereafter there cannot be any question about
whether fees have been retained by an official legally or illegally. This has
been one of the greatest handicaps to
the work of the public accounting department, for in many instances when field examiners reported that fees had
been illegally retained or paid out the officials charged generally came back
with the statement that it had always
been done that way. There has never been any uniformity in regard to the
collection and distribution of fees in the various counties of the state. In one county a clerk, auditor, treasurer
or some other officer charges one sum for doing a certain thing, while In another county the same officer charges a different amount for the same service. For instance, in making a school fund loan mortgage, the auditors charge all the way from $3 to 7.20 for their service. When this new book is
completed it will tell exactly what may be charged and nothing more will be
permitted.
This is one of Mr. Hendren's ideas of
establishing uniformity in accounting
In public offices. He says that unless
a uniform sesle of fees is established
throughout the state there will always
be trouble in making examinations of
books.
The Job of compiling this book is a
big one. George Pence, a deputy in
the office of the accounting board, has been working on it for weeks. He has
read every page of the three volumes of Revised Statutes of 1908 to get the
fees that were established up to that . and he has also read the acts of the Legislature since that time to get aay changes or amendments that have been made. In this way, he says, he is sure to find everything and miss nothing.' .. Mr. Hendren sas the book will set out nothing except the fees as they are fixed by the statutes and that ,,it "
wilt tell Just what the statutes sayabout the disposition of the fees. lie says that when this is done the county .
official will know Just exactly what be'-. , longs to him and what belongs to the county.
Mr. Hendren has issued instructions
to all of the ninety-eight field exam
iners now employed by the accounting department that they will not be per
mitted to drink Intoxicating liquors. On this subject his letter says: "Examiners should not drink ' intoxicating liquors of any kind, for the reason that, perhaps, a majority of the county officers in the rural districts are radically dry men, and if one of them smells intoxicants on the breath of an examiner, either during, before or after office hours, the presige of the
examiner would immediately vanish and such examiner would no longer bo of valuable service to this department. As individuals we may do things about which there could be no Just criticism under the law, but as servants of the
people our conduct should be exemplary and we should not do anything that may cause criticism and lose the confidence of the people."
Another hint as to his policy Is con
tained in the paragraph which says:
So long , as the examiner attends
tsrictly to his business and becomes more and more efficient, he is certain to retain a steady Job. Otherwise, he
will be relieved from duty." Further on in the same latter to the field examiners is the following: "Please remember that you should take no part whatever in local matters of any kind in the various communities where you may be conducting examinations, such as wet and dry elections, etc.. and this has been done by examiners in tha Dast." Mr. Hendren also informs the examiner that it is his policy to assign them to work as close to their homes as possible, so that they can at least spend Sunday with their families.

HOW SUNDAY SAVED WILKES-
BARRE. It will be remembered that a short
time ago we were informed by press and pulpit that 'Bill" Sunday had
"saved Wilkes-Barre." He was paid $24,000 for the Job. Recently I printed a list of crimes committed In
that city before and after taking
Bill's medicine, as shown by the
police records. The record revealed the fact that Wilkes-Barre was 30 per cent worse the month after Bill
left than the month before she was
saved. There lies before me a copy of the Wilkfis-Rarr Timps-Ijfiader for
August 12, 1913. It has the appear-j
MEDDY ADMITS IT. Medill McoCrmick, owner and manager of the Chicago Tribune, and
bearing honored names at both ends of his patronymic admits that he was
thrown off a Pullman car at Syracuse, N. Y., and took a ride in a
patrol wagon, clad only in his pajamas, for disorderly conduct. It appears says the Fort Wayne News that he had a fight with the porter,
who was not Jack Johnson, but who
managed to take care of himself.
Medill scorns the idea that he was drunk and relates that he had mere
ly taken a dose of bromide, which,
instead of putting him to sleep, made
him nervous and irritable. This is a
pretty plight for one of the "angels'
of the bull moose crusade last year
when the Immaculate Medill sang "Onward, Christian Soldier," with
the lustiness of Senator Dixon or
Gifford Pinchot. This is the same
