HOUSE COMMITTEE POSTPONES ACTION ON "PATRONAGE" PROBE
BY LEASED WIRE. INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 11. The committee appointed at the meeting of the Democratic members of the next house of representatives to investigate all questions relative to "patronage," met today with John A. Lapp, state legislative librarian, and discussed the questions to come before it. Because none of the members had made any investigation of the questions nothing could be done at the meeting, but arrangements were made for a final meeting of the committee in this city, January 5. In the meantime Lapp and the members will make personal investigations of the questions and at the meeting in January the first report will be made. Charles II. liedwell will be the speaker of the next house, according to the "dope" handed out at the Deninon by the boys who generally know About such things. The paid legislative lobbyist was given a jolt at the conference of
Democratic members of the Indiana '
house of representatives at the Den-1 Ison hotel, Indianapolis, yesterday, I and if the statement expressed there j Is carried out when the general assembly convenes, a law will be passed. ' to become effective at once, which will keep certain species of lobbyists away from the house and senate chambers. ' The members-elect who attended the conference, representing th party in power, drew a line of distinction be- j
tween their constituents back home who ask support for certain legislation and the lobbyist representing the lig interests, and it is the latter whom the legislators propose to go after. Kconomy was another important subject discussed by the legislators, find at the conclusion of the day's conference a committee was appointed to investigate the number of employes necessary to conduct the house affairs Btid to recommend that no more than that number shall be employed. Bedwell in Lead. The conference resulted in no rhange in the race for speakership. All the candidates were busy among the members seeking their support. Charles H. Bedwell of Sullivan seemed to have more men at work in his behalf that, did his opponents. While National Committeeman Tagpart let it be known that he favors Bedwell, he was not trying to lay down
on any of his friends to support Bedwell. The latter is regarded as the choice of Governor Halston, and a number of the latter's appointees are doing whatever they can for him. ! The other candidates have not atlenipted a combination against him. i Mason J. Xiblack of Vincennes said last night that he is gaining ground, and that he has good reason to believe , lie will be elected. j Some of the party leaders said the race is between Bedwell and John C. I Barnaman of Browntown, but '"red I'eick of Garrett and William Haberniel of Corydon contend that they are j very much in the race. Aside from ! giving the speakership candidates a ! chance to bo heard and to become ac- I
quainted, the conference did not result in a very decided drift toward any one. Jones Preside. Representative John R. Jones of Plymouth, a lawyer, who was in the 1913 session, presided at yesterday's meeting and he expressed himself on the lobbyist question after the conference. "I am in favor of a bill to prevent lobbying, and I believe it should be introduced, passed and become effective as soon as possible after the general assembly convenes in order that it may apply to the forthcoming session," he said. Legislation establishing new commissions was frowned on by a large number of the members who discussed legislative matters privately. There is a large number of farmers in the house, and it has been the experience of past legislatures that there is difficulty in getting farmers to pass on legislation that will require the payment of salaries to members of boards and commissions. There was a de
cided sentiment, too, against increasing
salaries or state officials, and the opinion was also expressed that many county office holders are receiving too much compensation.
