CAUGUS RULES SPECIAL SESSION

‘REPUBLICAN MAJORITY TRNS. ~ ACTS MOST BUSINESS BEHIND CLOSED DOORS e PLAY FOR VOTES IN NOV. Considerntion ¥or Party Advantage Oversteps Any Regard For People .8 of State e Indianapolis, Ind. July 22—Legislation by caucus with a weather eye out for the party's chances in November seems to be the accepted practice

of - she republican machine in the special legislative session. From the time the G. O. P: stale candidates O. K.'d Gov. Goodrich’'s program untii the present the majority members of both Houses have been carefully held in check and few important measures have been allowed to come up for discussion on the floor. * .

Everything has been ddfie in caucus There the friends of the administration including the emmissaries ot Senator Watson and Warren T. MeCray, the gubernatorial nominee; have been enabled to énforce their demands. The tangled tax situation has beéu the. chief subject of discusion and

while the legislators are by no means in accord on the matter the administration forces have allowed thein little discretion. Reports from the many ‘coucuses held are to the effect that the chief subject discussed was how te approach the voters in such a way as to insure success in November and ‘now how to best remedy the taxation evil. = > L \The following record shows the readiness with which the Republicans lapsed into caucuses: - : ‘Monday, July 13 Republicans caucus on administration “rubber stamp’ program. i _ .

Thursday, Two House caucuses on Tuthill bill legalizing the horizontal increases held invalid by the state supreme court. '

Friday, House again caucuses on Tuthill bill. Administration forces reinforced by the supporters of Watson and McCray force agreement and measure is passed by House by a vote of 63 to 30. Speaker Eschbach applies gag rule, giving each member only one minute to discuss bill in public. Senate holds = three caucuses = cn legalization measure, final one lasting until after midnight, U. 8. Lesh, re publican candidate fer attorney general . who -was supported by the. Watson forces in the primary, appeals for the enactment of the Tuthill measure. Senate names caucus committee to harmonize various suggestions into new bill. IR e S

Saturday, House and Senate both caucus on memorial bills. . . Sunday, Senate caucus committee considers Tuthill measure. Announces it favors compromise for the sake of political expediency. : 2 Monday, Senate caucus again considers taxation bills. ,

Tuesday, Senate caucus brings forth Kiper \bill, which would “validate” the horizontal sincreases made by the state board' of tax commissioners. Little differnt from Tuthill measure. Wednesday, sSénate again caucuses on Kiper bifl. i :

It has bécome known that McCray and Watson are bringing all the pressure they can éxert in favor of the. enactment of the Johnson bill, which would exempt the bond holders of the Indianapolis reduction piant from taxation. The fact that Gov. Goodrich, Senator Miles J. Furnas and. Jet Moorman were stockholders in the. Indianapolis Reduction Plant when it was sold to the- city of Indianapolis in return for $170,000 in sanitary district bonds was exposed last week. Moorman had testified prior to the sale that the plant was mnot worth more than $17,000. The minority report of the ways and means committee favoring passage of the b££‘Was adoped by the House and} immediately afjerward the per{;-; _pers exposed the deal by which ‘the administration financiers would be exempted from taxation. The bill then mysteriously _disappeared and was missing until Tuesday when Fred B. “ Robinson, one of McCray’s managers had the Senate appoint a committee “eof three to inquire of the House relative to the missing measure. b o « On going to the House the committee found the bill lying on the Clerk’s desk. It is the common™belief that . following the expose one of the ad- - minstration leaders pocketed it until the storm had blown over. The insistence of the McCray marfager that ~.the bill be brought ont’,‘kowmr, ‘has ' stirred the fire of many legislators “who are opposed -to ,passing special _ of Gowernor‘Goodrich and his friends. ~_ laGrange Town Population.

TRANS CONTINENTAL TOUR Overland Company Sends The Popular 4 Model on a Long Road Trip _ Tuesday at 1 o'clock an. Overland Four car passed through Ligonier on fts way from New York to San Francisco, a distance of 3,338 miles. The aim is to make 20 miles an hour for the entire trip and the car was ahead of time when it passed through on the Lincoln highway. For the first 98¢ miles the time was 44 hours., The gasolene used was one gallon to each 22% miles. - “James W. Smith, the local dealer, says the test is to ascertain the wear and tear dnd the expense in operating an Overland Four for one year.

Get Your Fishing License.

- George N. Mannfeld, chief of the division of fish-and game advizes persons contemplating fishing trips to proeure a license before leaving home and safeguard themselves from molestation from warders and from possible I]l expense in Cllat: of arreßt. . .

The law reads that county clerks shall handle resident hwi\ing and fishing licenses. Some clerks hesitate to “farm out” licenses becaunse they are held responsible and must report all sales to the “departmment eacn month. Frequently a lake visitor neglects 10 purchase a license and on arrival at the water resort is eonfronting -with the alternative of writing home *to the county clerk or going to the clerk of the county wherein he wishes to fish. Often thix entails delay and considerable expense, but is the only way to raveid unpleasant camtact with wardens.

The department suggests that enterprising hotel keepars at lake resorts purchase licenses in books of 50 from their county clerks and sel them to patrons. This service to house guests should boost business. ;

It is pointed out by Mr. Mannfeld that the Indiana fish and game laws make not distinction as to sex. Women 18 years old or older must have a license. However, the law permits a wife to hunt or fish on her husband's license.. This is also true 'in case of chudren providing said children arc not over 18 years old. = ' -

Other growers in that section of the county all have good prospects for big crops; but the acreage this year is not so large as in Aformer seasons. This is account or by the scarcity of help.

John Skeels, of iLgonier, is another big onion grower who will have a mammoth crop unless something unforseen overtakes it. About the only damage which could result is hail as frost does not affect onions. -

The Legislatare.

Majority republicans in the #pecial seasion of the legislature have beea hopelessly divided on the legalizing tax bill and up to Thursday morning the senaté which gave the measures most serious consideration had not agreed on the legislation for the relief of the tax payers.

‘ The house passed the measure restoring home rule by replacing tax levies and bond issues with the different taxing units. This measure will no doubt meet with favor in the senate as it is in accord with a republican platform declaration. : The house passed a soldiers memorial bill carrying an appropriation of two miillion dollars and donating the old blind asylum ground and St. Clair park as the site for the big building. The session opened a week "ago Monday and it is believed will close Friday night of this week.

Farmers Federation Busy.

President Brown of the State Federation of Farmers Organizations says little legislation for farmers may be expected at the special session but that measures will be pushed at the regular session next winter. : ‘E. E. Reynolds, state treasurer, was successful in getting an extension of one week on the option for car load lots of anthracita coal to be shipped from Pennsylvania to Indiana points to various county associations. Approximately 1756 car loads were ordered through the state federation. Information has been received at headquarters that black- rust has 4papeared in the spring wheat of Minn., and the two Dakotas; that an embargo has been placed on the Argeutine crop, and - that the Australian acreage is but 60 per cent of normal. Basing judgment on these reports, federation officers believe that the proposed $2.50 price for wheat by grain dealers is entirely too low. It was learned that a car load of southern Illinois wheat was sold by an Indianapolis' commission firm at $2.86 per bushel during the last week.

Riley E. Smith Robbed.

Tuesday's Banner made mention of two house robberies at Albion. Ar dispatch giver particulars. It says:
