i a a a a a THE INDIANA MESSENGER. PRINTED EVERY WEDNESDAY -BY THEMESSENGER PUBLISHING CO. a Year, in Adrance. Address all communications to "The Messenger," Indiana, Pa. WEDNESDAY, APRIL 17, 1901 SOME of the politicians of both parties appear to be exercised about "ballot reform." The mass of the voters are pretty well acquainted with the present ballot law and are not specially anxious for a change.

The proposition to cut off the circle at the head of the respectire tickets is a mistake. The majority of the voters rote their ticket straight and they can do that quickly and satisfactorily by making a mark in the circle. If the voter should be compelled to search his ballot and make a mark opposite each candidate for whom he wishes to vote, there will be a big kick. Life is too short for that sort of thing. a voter cannot find either of the tickets to his pleasment, he can take his time to it and mark each separate candidate for whom he wishes to vote.

The people are not lying awake nights thinking of "ballot reform," and our legislators would do well to let the present law alone. ELKIN'S SPLENDID WORK. While Governor Stone has been receiving words of praise from every quarter in the commonwealth, his attorney general, Elkin, is getting his share of credit for the good work being done at Harrisburg by the governor and his cabinet. During the last week Gen. Elkin has been busy in the Dauphin county court making a determined fight against the representatives of corporations who are seeking to be relieved of paying the amount of taxes that has been charged up against them by the state officials.

It has been the practice for years for the wealthy corporations to engage the most expert and experienced counsel to combat the a state authorities who lery taxes. They will take their cases into court and every imaginable means seek to defer the payment of their just share of taxes, or have them reduced. A Lumber of delinquent corporations in addition to those disputing the charges of the state authorities have been fought in court by Attorney General Elkin, and under his most aggressive and radical policy he has managed to save the state many hundreds of thousands of dollars. During the last two rears there have been nearly $900,000 collected through this means, and of the 300 cases which Attorney General Elkin now has on his list, some of which are being tried almost every day, it is expected a Gen. Elkin will add at least $600,000 more to the revenues of the state.

TAX REFORM WINS. Insurance Commissioner Durham, of this city, another member of Governor Stone's cabinet, has been congratulated on all sides within the last few days over the passage of the bilis providing for reform in the matter of the assessment of taxes in Philadelphia. For years there has been a system in existence under which certain influences through appointments made by the board of judges have had control of the assessment of real estate for the purpose of taxation. These infuences have been exerted time and time again in political campaigns to block reforms and they have been such as to call forth criticism from many quarters. The outcome was an agitation for the election of members of the board of revision of taxes by the people, instead of having them appointed by the judges.

Under this plan it is believed that there will be an opportunity always for the people to correct any abuses that may develop in the system of assessments of real estate. After a very hard fight the legislature passed the bills, one repeal the present law, and the other to establish a board which shall be elected by the people. While the political opponents of Commissioner Durham have been calling these bills "ripper" bills, they have failed to deceive the people, who can be safely trusted to elect competent and reliable men to these very responsible positions. BRADFORD STALWART AGAIN. Bradford county is again in the ranks of the stalwarts, and has set its seal of approval upon the principles of majority rule.

This was decisively expressthe Republican county convention, which was held in Towanda Thursday afternoon of last week to ratify the local primaries of Saturday previous. Last August Bradford went insurgent and passed resolutions instructing the legislative candidates to use every honorable means at Harrisburg to defeat Matthew Stanley Quay or any one proposed by him for United States senator. This score was reversed last week, when, by a vote lacking but five of the 160 delegates, resolutions were passed indorsing the administration of Governor Stone, Senators Quay and Penrose, the Republican state platform and the principle of majority rule.

Red Front. The LAST PAYMENT READY. Jack de Taylor Receive the Money to Complete the Sale of the Widdowson Tract, Canoe Township. Last week, Jack Taylor, attorneys' for J. H.

Weaver of Philadelphia, received a check for some $10,000.. This large sum is the last payment on the famous Widdowson timber and coal tract in Canoe township, containing about 1,000 acres. The total amount of cash involved is over $60,000, of which a first payment of $20,000 had already been made. With this sale the last large timber tract of the coanty is disposed of, the hundreds of thousands of acres of timber which formerly covered the county and filled the rivers with rafts not one large piece remains. But it makes business and therefore there is no place for sentiment.

The land purchased by J. A. Weaver is underlaid with coal and is worth a large amount of movey. It is said that John E. DuBois, DuBois, the millionaire timber dealer, offered Wearer $100,000 the tract almost at the outset of negotiations, but the offer was refused.

From semi-authoritive source it was learned by a MESSENGER reporter that the Widdowson tract. will be held for investment and that there is 110 immediate purpose of clearing the land or operating the coal, but circumstances alter cases, and in the case of independent dealers circumstances are peculiarly liable.to change radically in less than a day. The Widdowson tract was part of the the late Josiah Widdowson estato aud the negotiations for its sale were conducted by Mr. E. E.

Davidson, who is at present staying at Pine Flats with his wife. The large check is now in an Indiana. Bank and will be paid over to dowson heirs as soon as Jack Taylor have passed on the title and this will not be for several days. Es the Influence of Evil Increasing?
