DEMOCRATS ATTEMPT TO KEEP OIL INSPECTORS ON PAY ROLL
INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 17. After a motion by Senator Culbertson adopted by a vote of 25 to 20, which resulted in the indefinite postponement of the bill to change the first, second and third Congressional districts, the Senate became involved in another parliamentary tangle over the. measure to abolish the office of oil inspector. Senator Culbertson moved that the oil inspection bill be recalled from further consideration of the committee and Senator Robinson, arising on a point of order, stated that the motion was out of the regular order of business. His point was sustained by Lieutenant-Governor Bush and Senator Culbertson appealed from the decision
of the chair. Robinson Holds Floor. Robinson got the floor and continued to talk until 11 o'clock, the time set for taking up S. B. 4, a minor measure as a special order of business. Robertson in his speech criticized the Democrats for trying to keep sixty oil inspectors on the state pay roll when he asserted three men could do the work. His speech prevented a vote for Culbertson's appeal from the chair. In calling for S. B. 4 LieutenantGovernor Bush stated that he talked against the retention of the oil inspection department in every county in which he spoke during the campaign and would rule against their retention whenever possible. Senator Culbertson's motion on the

With the filing of the supplementary report of the viewers, today, all is in readiness for county commissioners to advertise for bids on the National -highway improvement in Center township known as the Dunbar road. The improvement starts in Centerville and extends two and onehalf miles west. . The road will be cemented. -'. ' Commissioner Seaney said that the board of commissioners will advertise for bids immediately, probably Saturday. Asks Bids on Extra Work
Surveyor Horton said that Centerville will advertise for bids on extra work to be done along with the improvement of the road through the town at the same time that the commissioners advertise for bids on the load work. These "extra work" contracts will be let at the same time that the contract for the road i3 let and all bidders on the road work will be asked to bid on the extra work. By dealing with the extra
work in this manner, Centerville will
be saved the trouble that Cambridge City had in getting Contractor Kirkpatrick to carry out the "extra work" clause of the contracts for improving the National road through Jackson township. A contract has already been let for the improvement of the National highway through the east half of Centerville and through the eastern part of the township.
