HENDRICKS & COMPANY TELEPHONE No. 27. OFFICE Centennial Open House Block, 107 West I.a Torte Street. Entered at the Postoffice at Plymouth. Indiana as second-class matter. PLYMOUTH. INDIANA. JAN. . umo. GOVERNOR HAS SOME REFORMS WILL SUGGEST THEM TO THE NEXT LEGISLATURE. Separate Appropriation Bills to be Passed Quickly No Waiting Till Last Day. Indianapolis, Ind., Jan. 1 (Governor Marshall is preparing to intnluce some imj)ortant reforms at the next "session of the general assembly concerning the general appropriations. According to his plan, as outlined, he will ask the general assembly to make its general ami specific appropriations, whidi have heretofore been included in one bill, in two sejKirate bills one providing for the general appropriation necessary to carry on the state and institutional denatments. and the second to contain all specific appropriations planned by the legislature. He will ask that ljot'h bills be introduced at the earliest mssrble time in tli- session, and that tln-v he pushe-l to an early passage. Matter of Repairs. The governor will further de mand that in making appropna tions for repairs to state build ings and grounds the assemblymen get awav from their form er habit of making these appropriations so specific that the hands of the trustees of the various institutions are virtually tied, and that such appropriations be made with some latitude so that the trustees may be enabled to exercise some of their own .business sense in spending the money a thing which it is now, at limes -ii'I fKcitlt foT them to do. Condition at Treasury. "In my message to the legislature, which will be short," said rhe governor. "I snail lay before the assemblymen, the exact condition of the state treasury emphasizes need of such economy as may suggest itself to me. It requires just so much money to run tire governmental and institutional affairs of rhe state, thr.t being all fixed by statute. There is no need of any legislator spending any time quibbling over that part of the appropriations, and it ought to be put out of the way in short order." "Prut in regard to the specific appropriations, is is different. These appropriations should be made according to the nee's of the state and the institutions and according to the erudition of the treasury. Discussions of such appropriations should not be put off until a late- hour, then rushed through, with the governor having no proper opportunity to exercise has right oi veto in the event the bill loes not meet his approval 'when passed. The report of the visiting committee, will be laid before the legislators early. nil see to that. There will be valid excuse for any great delay in bringing the specific appropriation bill to a early consideration ad passage. Based on Experience. The gm-ernors decision to ask that the general assembly appropriate the repair funds for institutions on lump sums rather than in innumerable small specific amounts is based on his eerience during last year in various meetings with board of trustees of the state institutions. A case in point citeVl by the governor is one 'Which came up at the state 'home for soldiers' land jailors' orphans at Knghtstown. The last general assembly appropriated SI, 100 for the construction of a water plant at the institution. The 'lx)ard of trustees subsequently found that by changing the -plans, a plant costing the same amount could be put in which would save $1,000 a year in wages, and the old set of plans, at the order of the governor, wa thrown aside. The loard then found that according to the terms of the appropriation act, the $1,0(H) set aside for the purchase of construction coufd not be used umlar the new plans, and the governor was compelled to pay for th.e plant out of his contingent fund, the original appropriation reverting to the state treasurv at the end of the fiscal vcar. Transfers Requested. During the year the governor has been requested time and again bv mcm1ers of loard of trustees to be allowed to take mony ferom one specific repair fund to be used for other repairs where they were badly neodeVl. but this permission has been refused on the ground that it is contrary to law. It is the governor's plan that where needed repairs for an institution are found to aggregate .$1.800, say to appropriate the money in i lump under the head of repair fv.ids, rather than to specify each separate item for which it shall be spent. "Let us trust 'something to the intelligence and honesty of the trustees," said the .governor. "If thy arc not intelligent and honest they ought not be on 'boards; and

CANNOT OBTAIN MANY WORKMEN

ADVERTISEMENTS FOR 100 Men Fail to Bring Results. Visits Elkhart and South Bend and Finally Brings Back an Italian Interpreter. One of the most perplexing problems that is confronting the Winona Interurban railway management, in the construction of the line between Mentone and Peru is the difficulty that is being encountered securing lalorers. Large gangs of men and many teams are now working at Mentone, Chili. Akron and Gil etui, but the management is anxious to push the work still faster and 100 or more men are still wanted, says the Warsaw Times. Advertisements' for la'torers have been placed in newspapers in Warsaw, Goshen, Elkhart, Mishaw&ka, South llcnkl and other cities of northern "Indiana, but have failed to bring the desired results. There arc only two conclusions either there are no men out of work, or those who are not now employed do not care to work. The latter seems to be the case, since it is noticed every diay men -who are apparently out of work and are idle. After making every effort to secure men from Warsaw and other towns along the line of the new road.C. O. Sullivan, general passenger and freight agent for the Winona company, made a number of special trips to Klkhart md South Bend in an effort to ''nxhrce men to accept employment His last attempt was in Klkhart, where he tried to employ Italians. He finally succeeded in persuading these people to send an inter preter, a Mr. Dente, to accom pany him to the scene of the work o sec the conditions and to i:Üvise them whether or not to come. As vet the result of his visit is not know. U. S. Lklgard, who is one of the contractors at work on the new line, was in Plymouth several ilays a,go, and brought Sack a number of workmen, Mr. Li Igartl also has the contract for the gra'ding and filling the right-if-way of the South Bend ami "rom Laketon north to South Tend. He says he was ouligetl to Tfbanikm work on that line on ac mit of the freezing of the ground. He was able to complete about a nilc in the two weeks that work vas possible on the line. Mr. LidgarJ promises to begin work there, with a Barge force, early in the spring. New Ruling in Effect. 'Hie recent ruling of the railxad commission requiring that ill locomotives be equipped with ish pans became effective January 1. While many roads through the country will be caused considerable trouble as a result, local -oaids, it is understood, have been prepared1 for this ami no trouble is expected. The commission within the past month has reeivVl commimications from difrerent companies in 'which they leclared themselves to be un prepared at present and ased for extension of time in which to zquip all engines. This has been -cfusetl them and it is stated that 'lie ruling avill he rigiVlly enforced. To Have District Love Feast. Instead of a general love feast this year, district love feasts will be held: These meetings will be called at the time of the election of a chairman for the several districts. lHs the con-sensus of opinion of the Republican leaders that the district love feast will be a means of getting closer to the people and the party workers. The decision regarding die general love feast was made yesterday, coincident with the visit of State Chairman Goodrich to Indianapolis. Mr. Goodrich conferred with Acting State Chairman Sims arid then made known bin ckci.;:ort in the matter. Work for Kisssinger Pension. Camps of Sons of Veterans and the Spanish American War Veterans of Indiana will join in the movement to secure a pension of $100 a month for John R. Kissinger of South Bend, who has become an invalid for life through his sacrifice in becoming a yefllow fever patient for experiment avhile in Cuba. Deep Snow Kills Game Birds. Deep snow, hunerts assert, is causing the death of hundreds of quails and pheasants. One hunter reports that within lesis than a mile apart he found two bevies of qualis, forty-four in number, all dead. Oilier hurrters relate similar experiences. Residents along the Kankakee river 'express fear that pheasants and quails have been iwiped out in that region. Is 100 Years Old. With the passing of the 28th lay of December, Notble county 'Himbcrcd among its pioneers one ho has passoid the century mark. He is Jacob Roszor, ' who lives in a farm where he has made his bbme for 01 years, just south f Kcndallville. surely it is not the province of the legislaturq to tripple thair activities as they have crippled them in the past, by the methads obtaining in making appropriations for repairs."

For several years we have announced, with our recommendation that wetiad found a positive cure for eczema; a simple skin wash, oil of wintergreen compounded with otfoer healing ingredients. Yet we know there are people right in this town who have oczema, and still have never tried this remedy. We have, therefore, arranged vith the D. D.'D. Laboratories of Chicago, for a special offer of a trial hottfe at 25 cents instead of the $1 liottle as regularly sold. We offer this trial bottle with ourrecommendation and assurance that just as soon as the patient washes- his itching skin, this mild liquid will take the itch away instantly. Charles C.
