ISven tho members of the "commit- tco of thirty" in their calmer mo- ments, and when there was 110 necessi- ty t6 misrepresent facts for the furth- erance of selfish Interests, paid plow- ins tribute to tho ability, the honesty and ths industry or "William J. Hosey. Even members of this celebrated com- mittee heartily Indorsed tho adminis- tration of Mr. Hosey after he left office. One of the members of the "com- mittee of thirty" on January 28, 1911, a. year after Mr. Hosey left office, paid to Mr. Hosey a deserving tribute. Charles McCulloch on that day had a signed communication In the Fort Wayno Sentinel In which ho stated that Mr. Hosey deserved tho -thank: of tho citizens for his untiring devo- tion to tho establishment and con- struction of the lighting; plant. The last parasraph of Mr. McCulIoch'e communication to the Sentinel reads as follows: "FORMER MAYOR HOSHY DE- SERVES THE THANKS OF OUR CITIZENS FOR HIS UNTIRING DE- VOTION TO THE ESTABLISH- MENT AND CONSTRUCTION OF THE LIGHTING PIANT." In this brief statement Charles Mc- CuIIoch, -who In this campaign Is a member of the committee that Is bcnd- every energy to defeat Mr. Hosey. lives the lie to the chares made by the "committee of thirty" that Mr. Hosey was an obstructionist. He gives the lie to the committee's charge of procrastination aralnst Mr. Hosey. For Mr. McCulloch In his statement aays: "FOKilER AlAYOft MOSEY DE- SERVES THE THANKS OF OUR CITIZENS FOB HIS UNTIRING DE- VOTION." ;nt report city from establishing a local lib-htlug plant. Here we have a statement from one of the "committee of of the men who have joined the traction company in its light to defeat Mr. Hosey, telling just why that corpora- tion is opposing him. j Uauker .McCulloch went fiii-ther in his statement to the Sentinel in 1'JII. j Ho pointed out Hie great value of the i municipal light and power plant which I was established under Mr. Hosey's j I administration and which was erected' (almost entirely as a result of the activity of Mr. Hosey. Here is what he said about that feature: "I CITE A SUMMARY or TUG if CONTnoLLKR'H RKi'ORT, BEU13V- I ING IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO j A GOOD MANY CITIZENS WHO. LIKE MYSELF, WERE ANXIOUS 11 TO HAVJ3 THE CITY OWN ITS OWN PLANT, FEELING CONFI- DENT THAT WITHIN A REASON- ABLE LRNGT1I OK TIME IT I WOULD I'ROVE TO BE A VAI.U- ABLE ASSET AND WOULD SERVE A USEFUL PURPOSE IN KEEPING THE GENERAL LIGHT BILLS OF OUR CITIZENS AT A FAIR FIGURE." Could there be a more enthusiastic indorsement of Mr. Hoscy's program that was observed during his admin- istration? Why the change of heart, Mr. Mc- Culloch? Saturday, October 18. 1913. The Hucksters boast that corpora- tion dollars will win the election. There are six million Jews in Rus- sia and the government Is anxious to annihilate them by methods that provoke protests from the civilized We would Hks to hear from Hon. Perry A. Randall on the Sunday sa- loon. Like our friend Buck and his blind User, brother Randall can tell a mighty Interesting story of Sabbath day law and order. It is said the traction company in- vested more than J24.000 in Ha cam- paign against the city lighting plant, hiring expert accountants to investi- gate the finances of the concern and investing many dollars In "Electric Talks" attacking the municipal owner- ship Idaa. It is known that while this money was being poured out with BO lavish a hand, tired workingmen and workinswomen ware ridinsr home from work during the rush hours, hanging to straps in tho wholly In- ftdequata and antiquated street cars. Yet It is argued that tho interesia are not putting up a fight against Hoaey and the public utilities and are not an Issue In tho campaign, Mr. Buck in one of his personal trumpet blasts, refers to tho 10 cent elevation levy which tho demo- cratic council very properly maintained for the coming1 year in the face of a desperate attempt on the part of the railroads and their tools to have the RmoUnt cut first to five cents and Is untiring devotion an Indication of procrastination? la untiring devotion an Indication of laxity of duty? AND THIS STATBMENT SIGNED AND PUBLISHED BY CHARLES M'CULLOCII WAS PUBLISHED AF- TER. AS THE NEWS CHARGES, THE PEOPLE FOUND HOSEY OUT. IT WAS PUBLISHED A YEAH. AFTER MR. HOSEY LEFT THE MAYOR'S OFFICE. In Mr. McCulloch was willing to give, to Mr. Hosey the credit that was Justly his duo for his fidelity to the people's Interests. But ho Is now associated with a bunch of disgruntled politicians who are seeking, not so much to elect Charles H. Buck, of "blind tiger" fume, but to defeat Hon- est Bill Hosey. Not only did Charles McCulIocti warmly commend Mr. Hosey In his communication to the Sentinel, but he also added his voice of protest to the attempt of the traction company to prevent Mr. Hosey from fulfilling his pledge to the a munici- pal light plant. In that regard the statement of Mr. McCulloch published in the Sentinel January eg, 1911, eald: "NO WONDER THE GENTLEMEN OWNING THE WABASH VALLEY TRACTION COMPANY WERE SO ANXIOUS TO PREVENT THE CITY FROM ESTABLISHING A LOCAL LIGHTING PLANT AND I VEN- TURE TO SAT THAT IF THE FIG- URES OF THEIR LIGHTING PLANT COULD BE FAIRLY AND CARE- FULLY SEPARATED FROM THE THEY WOULD BUSINESS SHOW ALSO A THAT LIGHTING FUND. That the question of tho lighting plant fund investment bo settled onci and for nil, let it be understood tha there is no contention on the part o: Mr. Hosey that during tho years o 1900 and 1007 tho cash balance in tin fund was Invested In city Improve ment bonds. Instead, the cash balance, together with funds obtained from the sinking fund, secured by a transfer of the Improvement bonds credited the light- ing plant, were used In Immediately starting work and In completing tho municipal plant. And by this use of the money, HIP citizens ut Fort Wayne wern given light nt a greatly reduced rate, the savins In the coat of street lighting more than overbalancing In one year tho alleged Interest loss charged' up by Mr. Schelmann ngaln.it Mr. Hosey's management. And the saving In street lighting iigd a. saving in cost to tho consum- ers has been going on each year whilo tho eaulpment at the plant has been increased and the property has grown In value. So the wisdom of >lr. Hosey'a actlo n regard to the lighting plant has been proved. The city bus tho plant, t has saved many times what the in- on Improvement bonds would have amounted to and tho only oh- action cocnes from the private owner- ship Interests, tho traction company and its hired tools. Thomas. Schci- mann. Alluin, Randall and tho rest. And an to a policy of doulila deal- ing, it Is pointed out that the Fort Wayne News, In referring to the dis- position of tho lighting funds prior to the time the city was ready to use its cash in actual construction, Indicates that all the fund was Invested In Im- provement bonds, an Inference wholly at variance with the facts. Each year the cash account In the lighting fund prior to 1905 showed a large balance, running Into thousands of dollars. However, this is not nn Indication that former administrations were not doing their duty. It merely indicates that the city had more cash than there- were Improvement bonds on tho mar- ket. Bonds were bought when bonds were for sale and the balance was re- tained in the fund until more bonds were placed upon the market. WARSAW, Ir.d.. Oct. tlie re- fusal of the appellate court to grant an appeal to the supreme court Indiana, tlie legal battle between the heirs of the late Elijah Hays and the trustees of the Methodist church of Warsaw has been decided In favor of the church trus- tees. Many years ago Elijah Hays deeded oil of his property to the Methodist I church to be uafid for the ber.etit of the Nicholas Theological seminary at Mercedes, Argentina, In South America. The property was worth about and by the terms of the deed llr. Hays received an annuity of and his wife a year. Several years later Mr. Hays, who had accumulated nearly by saving and investing his annuity, made a second deed to the church. After his death his heirs commenced suit to set asldo the second deed, claiming that Mr. Hays was of unsound mind when lie made the last deeds. The verdict being for the defendant, the case was appealed and the appellate court and the Judgment of the lower court was sustained. Tho plaintiffs asked for a rehearing in the appellate court and when this was denied asked for an appeal to the supreme court This having been refused, the trustees of the clinrch can now give a clear title to the real estate.
