I Meantime other things have transpired to add fuel to the flame. The Indianapolis News which has been the organ of the state board of accounts has had unusual and exclusive access to its accounts and reports, and been advertised over the state by the traveling examiners of the board as the organ of the board has been threatening members of the house and their friends who are pressing the Dehority Investigation with "exposure." The threat, although freely made and made In the legislative halls, has had no other effect than to prove the News to be a decidedly Interested party against having the state board of accounts rushed into giving an accounting. . In order to offset any report which might be forced the News published recently what purported to be an Itemized account of the board, but It was a farce of a report and one which "will not . stand analysis. Meantime John Boltz, one of the deputy examiners, has been -absent from the office and no one professed

to know where he was. The rumor

spread he was out over the state try

ing to find evidence that would enable

the state board to make a report con-

iststent with its. professions. Thursday

Mr. Dehority refused to deny this, but

said he was out on duty for the state.

To Lobby for Funds. This feature of the legislative committee's report will likely meet with opposition. The Indiana wool growers' association and the Indiana live stock breeders association at their recent meetings appointed committees to assist Dr. Coover in obtaining the Increased appropriations for which he asked, and every legislator who wishes to remain a friend of the farmer will be buttonholed to override the committee's report. . , Once every year there emerges from the bushes an officer seldom heard of, the state entomologist, the title being held at present by one Benjamin W. Douglass, who has been seen on the third floor of the state house. A veil of mystery hangs over this nameenshrouded office. The pass word is "Shh-h-h, Sh-h-h." Once Inside, however, the scenery Is all quite prosaic, with a leaning toward the pastoral. For the uninitiated, let it be said the state entomologist is the only man in the state who is authorised to enter any apple orchard or any- watermelon patch In Indiana unmolested. Already, it is said, hundreds of boys who live in the country and a few of the wiser city tads are more ambitious on this account to be state entomologist than to be president. The entomologist's duties are to see that insects are destroyed and to study the San Jose scale. The necessity for extreme se

crecy in his operations is self-evident.
