As Second Class Mail Matter. OBJECTION A JUST ONE. .
; Wayne county has a Just objection againstrthe proposed action of the state
tax board in Increasing the valuation
'of real estate lO per cent. The as
sessments on real estate in Wayne county now amount to 70 per cent of
the real'iraluatlon. of all property and
in other counties the general assess
ment average shows that real estate
was'' assessed at from CO to GO per
cent. Wayne county does not object
,to a fair valuation on its real estate,
but ltdoes object- seriously to having
& higher assessment than- the other ! counties of "the state. Furthermore,
during the past four years the total
gain on. assessments on Wayne county
"real estate amounted to $1,743,220.
Ami in addition, to this the state tax
board wishes to saddle us with a 10
per cent, increase. Wniiethestate tax board is so anx!ious to raiseour assessments might be , a gootUtim to inquire, into the report of extravagance omthe part of our state officials. During the last ten years the assessments on corporations have ' in-creased?-40 or CO per cent, bringing 'in a greatly increased revenue to the , state. During the same time the assessments on real estate have also in
creased. But with this Increase in receipts from taxes has come a corresponding increase in the amount required to run- our state government. For-exaanple, every time the state legislature meets, there are a lot of political heelers and hangerson who have to be "taken care" of. They are given some soft snap job and. paid for doing nothing by the state. The last general assembly saw fit to greatly Increase salaries and to originate some new offices requiring more salaries. All this requires money and the money must come from taxes,
hence the frantic efforts of the state tax board to increase assessments. It is only right that the eyes of the people
be opened to the fact that -an increase ia assessments is simply to enable more money to beraised to continue
thevpr esent extravagant
of our state.

Bedford, Ind., July 26. The temperance crusade caused by the raid on the Elks' club room recently began In earnest when the trial of Rural Richardson, custodian of the Elks club, on the charge of selling liquor in the
club rooms, began before Mayor Stipp.
The defendant took a change of
venue to Judge Isenminger. A large number of witnesses were examined
on both sides and after the arguments of Prosecutor Fletcher and Attorney
Underwood, for the state and Attor
neys S. B. Lowe and W. E. Clark, for
the Elks, Judge Isenminger took the case under advisement. He said he
would reconvene the court and an
nounce his decision later. Tne trial
was attended by a large number of
temperance workers and women of
the W. C. T. XL, as well as many Elks
and their friends.
Never before has Bedford been so
wrought up by a liquor fight. Practically all of the cltiens in the town are
taking sides on the question. The entire movement Is due to a raid made by the police on the Elks club room.

selves day after day that they will abandon the use of it when they know that it is shortening their days, but morning after morning they fail, until
they grow to despise themselves for their lack of self control. Any one Interested In this subject would be greatly surprised to make a systematic Inquiry among prominent

It is remarkable that although scores of balloons have been driven out to sea. cases in which this misadventure has ended fatally are few, according to the Dundee Advertiser. More than a century ago, when Major Money made an ascent from Norwich, he was compelled to descend in the sea where he remained for seven hours until rescued by a revenue cutter. Some years later, James Sadler narrowly escaped drowning in an attempt to cross the Irish channel. His balloon dropped into the water some miles off Liverpool, and he was on the point of suc
