The speaker said th n was an at
.. nipt bfdnp mad- 1-y the republican
leadrs to escape this responsibility
l.y claiming that Warren T. McCray
is not responsible "for their short-
"minies." although the speaker said
McCray accepted the nomination up
on the sirno platform that indorsed
th ;oolrirh administration and is
therefore "Lineal and direct heir at
iaw to all that Goodrich said and did
as governor.
M'Crny In Clov Touch.
The speaker pointed out that Mr
fray, since his nomination has been
in constant touch with the present
.': dministratir.n leaders who control
the destinies of the republican party
and has helped them in their at
tempt to Kft the party out of the
dilemma in which (JcodriohJsm has
placed it.
"When the legislature was mud
dling in special session over the fol
lies of the Cocdrlch tax law. War
ren McCray was assisting in finding
some way to aain fool the people of
Indiana, by pretending to amend the
Kreat tax folly." Mr. Spann said.
The speaker called attention to
the Crawfordsvllle conference which
was attended by CJnv. Goodrich, Sen.
New. McCmv and ethers who "grap
pled with the assembly's tax law
dead lock and adopted a plan of ac
tion" to break it.
Mr. Spann pointed out that the
house, Mr. Spann Faid, "th" entire
public debts had be n paid and
there were three million dollars in
the state treasury, and he did not
ha y to Ju'le th" books in order to
make both ends meet, nor were there
anv borrowings from on fund to
make lelieve another fund
riht. nor did Ralston all :i sp
session of the legislature to k:p our
puMic institutions free from a finan
cial breakdown. "
The democrat.'.' nominee raid con
siderable attention to the tax law.
He said it will co down in history
of this ptate as the most burden
s."mc. unjust and comprehensively
unfair law ever soucht to be en
forced in Indiana. Its a protrs-yde
and costly abortion.
Tax IWianl In Control.
The central point of this tax law
is the state board of taxation and
it is piven such power that it could
control and dominate every taxpayer
and tax paying unit in the Mate.
The state lax board without any
facts to justify its conduct pro ceded
to make horizontal increases in
nearly every county in the .-täte.
The increases in some instances
we re as hiph as 50 pe rcent over the
assessment of local (fürers. Suits
wore brought and one of the cases
from Marion countywas taken to the
supreme court. It was held by the
court that the action of the board
ef taxation was lllepal. and this
threw the law that (;oodrich had
brapced about into the scrap heap.
The financial condition of the state
was deplorable. There was no
money with which to run our public
institutions and after the decision of
the supreme court it was seen that
the whole scheme of taxation would
have' to be revised. In other words,
the Goodrich administration had
broken down and the state confront
ed with bankruptcy. ejoodi ichism
had ruined Indiana and the repub
lican party by its folly in following
Goodrich is responsible for the ruin.
The governor was compelled to
call his legislature in session the sec
ond time to remedy the blunders it
had made in the regular session, but
the oftener it was called topether
the worse the blunder. And we have
tne cuiminaunp: oiunuer in the new
The first was simply an injury the
latter an insult as well."
The speaker declared the b-cisla-ture
had treated the decision of the
hitrhest court In the stat- a- a scrap
of paper throuph its lcpa'izinp an
act the court hid declared to be il
legal. It was pointed out that nr.drr the
i new tax law there was nothing in it
j to prevent the board from increasir.c
! taxes in any county as it phases by
i new levies to be made by it and the

Th" sj'eaker discussed the effect
of the new law at lenirth and showed
how the farmers of the state had
been ipn-red as to th" tax bill they
presented to the legislature. He
called attention to the so-called
Johnson home rule bill and declared
it a measure of expediency, like the
Kiper-Tuthill law. He cilled on
the voters "to see that the iniquit
ous tax law is repealed and to im
press on Goodrichism that principle
is greater than expediency."

paid attention to Goodrich's presl
dontial aspirations and their subse
ejuent fiasco and declared the pov
ernor went to work to build a "per
sonal political machine with himself;

He charcred the board with creatinp

came his political tool, "and so out

The speaker went into a discus
sion of the Highway romnilinii

chine" and which has been used i

Rapid Growth of a Live Wire Institution
It might be of interest to South Bend folks to know something of
the early history and rapid growth of this big industry.
The South Bend Bait Company originated about 25 years ago by F.
G. (Bucktail) Warden in a little room on South Michigan street, near
the Grand Trunk tracks. About 1 5 years ago it moved and became
a part of the South Bend Dowel works. Later on it reorganized and
moved to an old brick building at the corner of Colfax avenue and La
fayette street. About four years later it again moved to larger quar
ters on Colfax avenue, over the Electric Service Company. Again
it was forced to seek larger quarters and moved to its present location,
1 108 South High street, near the New York Central tracks, where it is
manufacturing more and better artificial bait than any factory in the
country. This fast growing concern is producing over 500 different
types and colors of wooden baits and thousands of different flies, spin
ners, leaders and lures of all kinds. It also makes the famous South
Bend level-winding Anti-Back Lash Reels and the well-known Anti-Back-Lash
Reel, which are two articles in fishing tackle that undoubt
edly have done more for promoting bait casting angling sport than any
thing else ever produced in fishing tackle.
The South Bend Bait Company is the largest manufacturer of baits
in the country. Its large modern factory employs 1 50 men and wom
en and its product is a great booster for South Bend from coast to
coast. The golden rod yellow color boxes that each bait is packend in
and the advertising cards feature the name South Bend many million
times, so we believe this firm can easily claim the biggest booster of the
"World Famed" South Bend throughout the country. It also mails
50,000 copies of its beautiful color catalog, "The Days of Real Sport,"
which is a very attractive edition.
Mr. Ivar Hennings, president and general manager, came to South
Bend nine years ago from Chicago. The South Bend Bait Company
is a progressive, live wire concern. Long may it boost the name of
South Bend through this grand and glorious country of ours.
