Harland, Richmond, by a vote ot 1817. Leslie was victor over Lemuel A. Pittenger, Selma, by a vote of 33-30. Because ot the majority held by | Republicans in both houses, caucus selections are equivalent to election. They will be ratified at the opening session today. Andrew E. Burham, Greencastle attorney, wifi receive the complimen-. jury Democratic! vote for president t pro tem of the senate. Joseph M. Cravens, Madison, veteran of many sessions of the general assembly, declined the honor at the Democratic senatorial caucus last night. Addison Drake, Sullivan county, a member of the governor's budget, committee, was selected as the Democrats’ nominee for speaker in the house. This automatically makes Drake minority floor leader in the house. Expeqtations of a close race f«r the speakership of the house were fulfilled in tjie Republican caucus. Five had been, entered in the race of whom A. Huffman, of Elkhart. was the first to withdraw, shifting his strength to Leslie. Ira Mendenhall, of Washington, followed and late yesterday Lonzo L. Shull, Sharpsville, dropped out tossing his support to Leslie. J. Glenn Harris, veteran Gary representative, is expected'to be renamed as chairman of the judiciary commiirxee, a post he held in 1925.

The lower rate, he announced, would result in the collection of approximately $3,710,000 less taxes next year than in 1924. “If by the proper application of tlie budget law to less than lo per cent of the state's taxes We were enabled to save the tax payers more than $.,,700,000 annually in reduced taxes.J think It is fair to assume that by proper and strict application of the budget law throughout all local taxing units we would be safe in saying the result would be asaving of approximately $37,000,000 annually,” the governor declared. Referring to bitter criticism directed recently against the last session of the general assembly, Gov. Jackson said: Charges and statements have lately been made by some individuals with a view of impairing the faith of the people in their public officials and their government. I believe the charges to be untrue. "So far as these charges relate to state officers, they were not made in good faith and there is not a scintilla of creditable evidence upon which they can be sustained in any degree. • They aie false.” Commendations for the national guard, and department of conserva-j lion were contained in the governor’s message. The conservation depart-* incut was lauded for having added 15,000 acres in parks, forests and l game preserves to the public estate.) laike JaniQs and the Indiana Dunes wer e added in 1925 aim 1926. The 1 I Brown county game preserves of 10,-1 , min acres was purchased entirely of | funds from the fish and game licenses.
