TIMES HI RE A I". . AT STATE CAPITA Ij.

Indianapolis. Ind., March 9. Gov

ernor Marshall will have a number of nice appointments to make in the next few weeks, and already there ia a

horde of applicants for the positions.

The governor has announced, how

ever, that he will not make any appointments at present tit that he will take plenty of time to think them oyer. The recent legislature created a number of good Jobs. Some of them take the places of old positions, while others are new ones. The best place created was that of chief of the new department of inspection. This' department was formed by combining the state factory inspection bureau and the labor commission into one bureau. The head of this bureau will receive a salary of $4,000 a year. Three deputies will pet $2,000 a year, and there

will be nine Inspectors who : will re-i

cetve $1,800 a year.- j

There was no emergency-sclause to

the bill which. created this bureau, so

the law does not .'become effective until the volume of the act ot- the legislature has been printed and distributed to every county clerk In the state and the secretary of state has received a receipt from each one. Then the governor Issues a proclamation - declaring the laws In force. This must be done, however, within sixty days of Uie close of the session, of the legislature. No sooner had the session closed than a boom was started to have Senator Harry E. Grube of Plymouth appointed chief of the inspection bureau. Sena

tor Proctor became one of Grube' s champions and the boom received other good support until suddenly it was blown away by a little gust of wind. It was discovered that Grube was ineligible' to the place because he was a member of the general assembly which created the bureau and the position which he sought to get. The appointment would have been illegal. So that put a stop to the Grube boom. Repre

sentative John J. Keegan of Indianapolls was also talked of In connection with this position, , but the lame rule of law that applies to Grube would also apply, to him, dnd this means that

Keegan could not take the place. Keegan Is a labor leader here, and while he Is a brilliant and able man It is natural to suppose that his selection as the head of the "inspection bureau would be like flaunting a red flag in front of the manufacturers . whose plants he would have to Inspect. . The one other candidate for the place who seems to be gathering

time. - This law does not go into feet until after the publication of

acts. There are 327 building and loan associations in Indiana with 120,000 members and assets aggregating about $36,000,000. Under the old law there was no provision for examinations of these associations except when a number of stockholders filed a petition for an examination and gave bond for the costs of the examination. Of course, such petitions were rare, and there were no examinations of the building and loan associations.

I May 6. 1907. thev srave notes to cover

the amounts. After the local option campaign of 1909, when Huntington was voted, "dry," they refused to make further payments on amounts pledged,' alleging that the people had prevented them from enjoying the consideration' for which the notes were given and therefore they could not be held for the sums. Suits are now brought to enf6rce collection. - Shelbyvllle Charles Forrest and O. W. Cotton . two months ago filed articles of incorporation with the secretary of state for establishing a $50,000

plans have been abandoned. . . .Plans for the. Chambers Garage Co-operative

company, organized at a capital stock of $5,000 for opening a garage here, were also abandoned. Terre Haute There are conflicting reports as to the resumption of operations at the car works, but Manager Reading said he expected an "order would soon be placed for enough cars to keep one thousand men employed for some time. Another report Is that the plant has been turned over by the American Car and Foundry company to the National Dump Car company, which would devote it entirely to the manufacture of such cars, employing 1,500 men.

strength is John L. Walsh of this city

who wa.s chief doorkeeper of the house at the recent session of the legislature. Walsh made a great record in that position. He also is a union labor organizer, but he is not of the radical

type. For t!- subordinate positions there J

is a not iv oi applicants irom ai parig j of the state. No announcements will be made, however, for some time. ! There is also to be appointed a loco

motive boiler inspector, who will receive a salary of $1,800 a year. Up to thia time only one application has been filed with the governor for this position, and that is from Kirk W. Pierce

of Logansport, an old engineer who was a doorkeeper in the house. But it Is safe to say that the applications will rool in from now on. Another bunch of plums which Gov-

, ernor Marshall will have to distribute ; is created by a new law which au- ' thorizes the governor to appoint a commission to visit San Francisco and look into the advisability of Indiana erecting a building at the Panama exposition which will be held there in . 1915. The bill appropriated $5,000 for I the use of the commission. This will : mean a nice trip for a bunch of men j to California probably next winter, i when California trips are popular, and the state" will pay the bills. ' It is ceri tain that the applications for these apj pointments will come rolling in. , State Auditor O'Brien has three new , jobs to gjve out. A law was passed which gives the auditor of state power to inspect all of tlje building and loan associations in the state as often as he pleases, and gives him three examiners for ths purpose. These are brand new positions. Auditor O'Brien has

State Statistician Brolley says it will be some time before he will appoint men to take charge of the branch free employment agencies in South Bend, Fort Wayne, Terre Haute and Evansville. as he is authorized by a new law to do.' The law says that he may open these branch offices in cities of the second class and that the salaries of $1,200 a year shall be paid by the counties In which the offices are located. '
