HY CHARLES W. CF.Ofl.STOX.
Editor of the Tcrre Ilnutc 1'oM.
INDIANAPOLIS, Iml., .June 110.
Thrco politicul partners, powerful in
lintinnnl politics, arc today facing a
dissolution of partner-hip unless one
of them, now seriously involved, ori.
capes payment of the liabilities
I'lini'Kdl nninst him.
That one is Tom Taps art, politicnl
boss of Indiana, and a democratic
national committeeman, whose name
in nntionnl politics has been time and
ii Win linked with thoe of Itoj-er
Sullivan of Illinois and fhailes .Mur
phy of New York.
And Tom is now fihtinp hard to
free himself from the Mobilities which
the people of his state have charged
against him, through their lepnl rep.
icsentntivc, the prolocutor of .Mnrion
county, Indiana, the count v in which
the state capital and Topsail's home
on- locnicu. t
The political boss has been indict
ed on the charge of beinp in a con
Kjiinicv 10 sieai an eieenon iiv crimes
npninst (lie ballot bov, nlniifr with Il8
of his underlinps, includinp the now
notorious Donn Itoberts, who until he
was convicted in federal court nml
sentenced to six years in Leaven
worth prison for election crthxpirnoy,
was mayor of Tcrre Taule, Iml., and
a cnndidato for povernor.
Tnppurt Crlen "IVrMc-itlnii.i"
Up and down the state n Into and
cry is beiup raised and its keynote
is:
"Persecution by u prison convict!''
This nt present is Tnppart's de
fense. It is the snine kind of a de
fense that Donn Roberts uindo when
he was tried in n stnti court in Vipo
county a year prior to his conviction
in federal court at lndinnapolis. It
Hived Roberts in the state court nnd
the Tnppart forces evidently believe
the cry will npain turn the prosecu
tion into a boomcrnnp npain-t the
man who is responsible for it.
That man is Joe Roach, now a law
yer, and once u convict in the state
prison for the murder of n former
inend in a pnmblinp den in Tcnc
Ilnutc. Roach it was who helped the
federal authorities wenve the web of
evidence which resulted in the in
dictment of 310 Tcrre Hautcans on
chnrpes of election corruption and
the conviction of all who did not
plead puilty save one who wii mur
dered by another.
Story of KlrM Trial
Roach thinks not. At the time
Roberts was first tried the peoplo
were not really awake to the extent
of the political corruption in the
stale. When Roberts throuph the
newspapers cried out that ho was be
inp persecuted by corporations, nnd
more especially the traction corpo
ration of Indiana, which the people
had every reason to de-pise, he came
to be looked iion as n martyr. To.
ward tho close of the trial the court-
loom was packed bv Roberts' polit
ical followers, who biased and jeered
at the prosecutors, chief of whom was
Roach, and the judge Charles For
tune mnde no effort to stop it.
It was in tho closing hour of his
nrpument that Roach was broupht
face to face with one of the preatest
crises of his life. His wife called
him ou the telephone to tell him their
baby was dyinp.
"Come home, dear, if you want to
pee baby olive," was her me.-sape, Rut
Roach stayeit to lace the jeprinp
crowd which followed tho jury to the
jury room. The verdict came in .1
few minutes ''Not puilty," and then
Itoacli went to the bier of his child,
heartbroken. He had named the boy
Thomas Marshall, after the now vice,
president, who, as povernor, pardon
ed Roach, and tho baby was his pride
mid joy.
Rut a year later a different story
was told in federal court. Roach
pnthered the evidence and District
Roach started in to land the
hiphcr-ups. Refore the federal court
had yet convicted the Terre Haute
conspirators, Roach was assist in:;
the newly elected Marion county
prosecutor, Alvah J. Rucker, in n
Sinnd jury investigation.
it linil scarcely started before Hip
ropue.'s gallery picture of Roach nnd
his prison record were printed and
scattered broadcast up and down the
state with the announcement that this
was the convict who, posing ns a re
former, was trying- to disrupt the
democratic organization in Indiana.
Tappnrt Is Indicted
Rut Ronch persisted, in the face of
the notoriety he was petting, until
he had seen Tnppart, the state's pol
itical boss, indicted; until he had ecn
Joe Dell, mayor of Indianapolis, and
Samuel Pcrrotl, police chief, with a
loop INt of city orfieinN and em
ployes, indicted.
The day after Tappart ami his un
derlings were indicted. Fail banks, the
millionaire hiewor of Terre Haute,
burned over to Indianapolis nnd hnd
a conference with Tappart, at tho
Denison hotel, owned jointly bv them.
and consequently the politicnl rendez
vous of the democratic politicians of
the stntc.
(In n succeeding article, Editor
Clogston will tell of the amazing pol
iticnl corruption which has been hid
den under u bushel, which extended
nil over the great state of Indiana
nnd which sought to extend it-elf to
the national capital itself.)
