C: Huwley, Dinger Hermann, F. W. Haynes, W. J. Weaver, C. B. Wade. B. W. Bates, G. W. Riddle, S. Raines Dr. Lsngley, B. L. Eddy. F. W. Chapman, C. S. Helnline. J. H. Booth. George K. Quine.

The meeting at the court house was opened by several selections played oy the Helnline Conservatory Orchestra, directed by Mrs. A. J. Young. Two vocal numbers by Mrs. C. A. Brand were well received and were very pleasing. Mr. Hawloy tn hla address dealt with the activities of congress dur ing the democratic and republican administrations. The war . record 4al tha democratic party was especial ly-attacked and the alleged waste and extravagance of conducting the war exposed.. Great laxity In plac ing contracts existed, the audience was told and great amounts or money were literally thrown away ny inefficient departments and bureaus. During the war the government provided aevon dankets for each horse, five halters for each animal and two branding Irons for each the speaker slated. On account of the Inefficiency of the democratic government agencies no cancellation clauses were in the contracts con sequently tho contracts were not subject to cancellation at the close of the war and as a result the great er bulk of the ships that were or dered and the greater portion or the ammunition were delivered after the close of the war. One billion dol lars was expended for airplanes and not one bombing plane waa used at the front. All of which was done before a republican congress go' control and as a result, billions up on billions ot indebtedness was heap ed upon the government when the republican congress or 1918 obtain ed control of the house and took charge and stopped the wsste and extravagance and proceeded to re - duco the extravagant expenditures and placed the government upon normal, pre-war basis. In regard to the recent reduction of expenditures and the bisecting ot thsi cost of running the United States government within two years, Mr. Hawley said: "The republican administration has reduced the cost of running the government from over six billion for the current fiscal year ending June 31), 1923. "The way to reduce taxation Is to reduce expenditure, and we reduced the expenditure of the government during the past two years of Presi dent Wilson's sdnilnlstration by ap proximately ill.OoQ, 000,0110 less than the estimates demanded, and dur ing the four years that the republi can parly has b-en In control of the house of representatives we have re duced expenditures 14.250.000.000 below the estinintes. For 1822 alone we reduced the taxes IX'iO, 000,000. All lexltlmate sctlvltles of the government are adequately provided for.

REPUBLICAN POLICIES Political Speech Delivered to Eo whlch time more than $15,000,000, 000 was absolutely wasted, which the people will have to pay with in terest thereoa at 4 per cent." Mr. Hawley.gave a detailed ex planation, of the Fordney protective tariff act, and ita purpose and the results already obtained under it. He explained that the tariff waa to protect home Industry and bring foreign products manufactured . by cheap labor up to a price level with tne home manuiacured product. He explained that the Fordney art did not demand as high a tariff rate aa preceding acts and that this prov ed the soundness of a protective policy. Former tariff acta have sup ported homo Industries to such an extent that they no longer need aa high a protective rate as formerly was needed. The Important building materials are on the free list such aa Portland and other cements, structural Iron and steel and shingles and lumber because the industries behind them have grown to such an extent under protective tariff as to be able to cope with the competition ot the world at present. Mr. Hawley ridiculed the preten sions and campaign promises ot Wslter Pierce aa a tax reformer. In view of his tax-voting record ln the legislature and urged the reelection ot Governor Olcott - "The state Institutions ars very well managed," he said, "aad ths election ot a democrat for governor would necessarily make changes and weaken the Institutions." MRS. HAZEL M'NALLY IS FREE ON MURDER CHARGE (By Associated Press) HAMMOND, lnd., Oct 20. Mrs. Haiel McNally, declared by her 64-year-old husband to be the mother ot twins waa freed of a charge of mur der this afternoon, whet Judge Henry C. Cleveland ruled tha state had fail ed to prove ths infants sre not still alive. The 26-year-old wife, who had grinned and giggled through four days of the preliminary hearing while wit leases attempted to fasten on ber the charge of double niuroV-r, col lapsed and fell fainting to the floor aa the cheera and applause ot 150 women courtroom fans rang ln J)er ears. By a strange paradox of the law ths defense which maintained the twins "born" to Mrs. McNally last Decem ber were but inanimate creations of china and snwduat dressed In baby clothes won Its victory because the iBiHte was unable to prove that the 'niystery babies were not at the pres- ent moment riving, breathing human beings wilb actual fiesh and blood. The missing corpus delicti law yer's phraseology for the "body of ths crime" proved a stumbling block to the state and because of It the mys tery of the McNally twins, whether they ever existed, whether they were only dressed up dolls or whether, aa the state contended, they were first real babies and then dolls remains unsolved. Proof of Death Lacking. Sustaining tha motion of Samuel Swartx, of South Bend, attorney for Mrs. McNally, for dismissal of tha charge. Judge Cleveland ruled that all '.legal Jcclslon maintained that same proof that a dead body actually existed, that It came to Its death by violence, and that the person charged with the crime was In some way con nected with Its commission, was nec essary before a rharKS or murder could be supported.
