GOODRICH FAREWELL MESSAGE IS LONGEST IN HIS FOUR YEARS

By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS. Jan. 5. Governor Goodrich's farewell message to the Indiana legislature, to be delivered next Thursday, will be the longest of any delivered by the retiring governor during his four years as Indiana's chief executive. Yet it will not be as vol

uminous as that of his predecessors according to the governor and his advisors. The message principally will be a review of the Goodrich administration, a recital of the legislative accomplish; merits and the principal recommendations made to earlier legislatures which have not been carried out in law. A pardon report, required by law, may be included in the address or forwarded to the legislature as a spearate document. Praises Tax Law. The new tax law, enacted during the Goodrich administration, will be praised by the retiring governor, in which , connection he will urge the legislature to take some action to check local taxing units in levying taxes and issuing bonds. The power of the state tax , commissioners, granted by the original tax law, was ended by the "home rule" bill enacted six months ago but Governor Goodrich is frankly displeased with "home rule" and believes that taxpayers generally have a similar opinion. Although Governor Goodrich will speak briefly at the inauguration of his successor. Warren T. McCray, next Monday his farewell message to the legislature will be his last official important statement. As soon as free of , office Governor Goodrich plans to leave for a trip abroad starting for a tour of the Far East. He expects to . be gom several months.

preliminary gathering of the legislators is the laugh of Fred Robinson. It resounds through the hotel corridors and acts like a tonic on those who are low in spirits. The very center of the Claypool lobby last night was the meeting place for a bunch of astronomers men who are vitally interested in doing something to the bluesky law. All were of considerable avoirdupois and looked prosperous and benignant. A good many of the gentlemen from the farming communities were asking about the smart looking young woman who was hurrying around the Claypool lobby about dinner time last night apparently trying to bring together a few of her feminine friends for a slight diversion in the Claypool cafe. Well, they had better all get acquainted with her, because she was Miss Ada Bush, who is to be secretary to Governor McCray. An important conference was ,held in the Claypool lobby yesterday between Col. Bill Huffman, manager of the McClure speakership campaign, and Harry N. Styner, who until recently was a candidate for secretary of the senate.

saloon league, was a visitor among the legislators last night. ' The antisaloon league intends to keep a watchful eye on the legislature in spite of the near-bone-dry condition of the 6tate. Charles B. Riley, an Indianapolis grain man also was "in onr midst." Mr. Riley was formerly secretary of the old railroad commission.

Everett J. Newlin of Hendricks county, who is the only candidate for principal doorkeeper of the house, will be able to make them stand around If he lands the job. He is about six feet tall and "big out" in comparison. He has a healthy red face and calloused hands because he is a farmer. He said the. other night he had to leave Indianapolis early in order to get home and milk the cows. Undoubtedly there will be a contest

between two men this session as to which has the most nearly perfect black mustache. The two men are J. D. Miltenberger, candidate for the speakership, and Omer U. Newman, representative from Marion county. Somebody asked Representative Henry Abrams of Marion county last

night how many men Marion county had in the house. - "Ten", replied Mr. Abrams promptly. ' '"Well, unless they ventilate the statehouse better than they usually do you won't have more than eight at the finish of the session." spoke up somebody else in the crowd.

(Continued from Page One) corporations in the state valued at $6,000,000 or more. He said that as far as he was concerned about the only fight he would have to make as a utility representative would be a fight against disastrous taxrates. Oscar Ratts, of Paoli, and James Nejdl, of Lake County, both of whom are candidates for president pro tern of the senate, threw their arms around each other's shoulders and strolled over to a newspaper man in the hotel lobby to express their joint grievance. Both said they were displeased because the contest in which they were engaged was being shoved out of the limelight all the time by the speakership contest. Senator Ratts appeared to be in good spirits today. It was said that certain influential men who are working for McClure for speaker were also working for Ratts. But the same thing was being said about the Nejdl candidacy.

Tom Grant of Lowell was mixing in the crowd last night and smiling because he had just been elected president of the state board of agriculture. Mr. Grant likes to tell about the time a few years ago when he was sheriff of Lake county. He rays it was some rough county then.

Somebody told Bert Thursman, Republican chairman of the Third district last night that he would be docked on his regular job if he did not fiuit spending so much time around the hotel lobbies. Mr. Thursman assured his questioner that he had done a full day's work before he ever left the statehouse. He is employed in the state superintendent's office.
