New Law» Now in Effect Considered Very Important.
Governor Ralston’s proclamation putting in effect the acts passed by the last legislature, has the effect of making effective some of the most important laws ever passed by the Indiana general assembly. Of all the new laws the public utilities commission law is probably the most important. It creates a new commission of five members. This commission has full jurisdiction over all public service corporations, such as street railroads, interurbans, steam roads, gas, water, light, and heat companies, and telephone and telegraph companies. It has power to appraise their prop-erty{-and to establish rates for their service to the public. It has power to authorize or refuse to authorize any increase in capitalization. It has power to regulate the corporations in every way in which the public is interested. The commissioners receive $6,000 a year each, and the same salary goes to the chief counsel. The secretary will get $4,000 a year, and the commission will appoint whatever number of assistants it requires. The appropriation for the maintenance of the commission is $150,000 a year. The commissioners appointed are Thomas Duncan, Princeton, chairman; James L. Clark, Danville’ Charles J. Murphy, Brookston: McClure, Anderson, and Frank E. Payne, Jeffersonville. Fred Caldwell, of Winchester, is appointed general counsel. The name of the secretary has not been announced.
Next in importance, perhaps, is the vocational education law, which requires agriculture and vocational training to be established in all schools of the state. Complete courses must be arranged by the state board of education, and the board will have three additional members, one representing labor, |>ne representing manufacturers, and the other to be the governor’s own choice. Each county is to appoint its own agent to have general supervision of this branch of education. This has been regarded as one of the most far-reaching steps ever taken in educational affairs in Indiana, because it means the establishment of a complete new department and recognizes the need of industrial education in order to make boys and girls capable of self-sup-port when they are grown. Third In Importance Is regarded the inheritance tax law. This is expected to produce several hundred thousand dollars a year in revenue for the state. It provides for a graded tax on ifrheritances according to the size of the inheritance and the degree of relationship between the testator and the legatee. There are exemptions of various kinds from the operation of the law. This is the first time Indiana ever had an inheritance tax, but some of the other states (have had such laws for years. New York state gets millions of dollars a year out of its inheritance tax, but, of course, there will be nothing like that in this state, where they are no such fortunes as are owned by many New York rich people. The law provides for the appointment of an inheritance tax investigator, whose business it is to look after the collection of the inheritance tax. Albert Humke, of Brooklyn, Ind., has been appointed to this position, which carries a salary of $2,000 a year. All of the inheritance tax money goes into the state treasury. Another important new law is the\iniform negotiable instruments law. This is the same kind of a law that is in existence in many other states, and its enactment was in line with the program of the business and legal interests of the country to obtain uniformity of the law regarding notes, checks, bonds, and other negotiable instruments. It is a long, complicated law, and will require careful reading on the part of even a lawyer to get a thorough understanding of its provisions.
In addition to these new laws there are several hundred others, all of them of interest to somebody, but they are not of the same general importance of those mentioned. Another law makes it a crime to drink liquor on a train or street or interurban ear, except in dining cars.

Scenic, Wash., June 1, 1913. Editors Republican: I must write you again, as I am getting homesick for news from good old Jasper. This place is about 100 miles from Seattle, and it has a valid right to its name, because it is all scenery. The canon is about 2,000 feet above sea level and the hills rise almost abrupt to from 1,000 to 3,000 feet higher, and the Great Northern railway almost loops the loop in the midst of this beautiful scenery. At this place it passes around the head of the canon (but up hill all the time) about four miles, crosses the gulch on a 140-foot trestle, passes through a horse-shoe shaped tunnel 1,000 feet long, and again ascends the hill it just left and when it reaches Windy Point, opposite the town, is 2,000 feet above it, but not near the top. John J. Hill is spoiling this wonderful scenery just as fast as he can.. From the station around to Windy Point, a distance of between eight and ten miles, will be almost one continuous snow shed by December Ist, and we can hardly blame him, because here the snow is shoveled off one track and it crowds down on the next. Besides having all kinds of trouble with his snow shovels last winter, the foreman told me there was still twelve feet of snow the first part of Apnfl, and right now there are two carloads of the precious white stuff within forty feet of the hoisting engine that I am.firing, and I celebrated Decoration Day by making a few snowballs. I sleep under a pair of blankets and a comfort every night, but from. 9 a. m. to about 4 p. m. it is everlasting hot, and about noon I’d pull my shirt if it wasn’t for getting sunburned. Sincerely yours,
