Our Husband Does His Duty.

Formal announcement of the fact that Mrs. J. L. Peetz will be his chief deputy has been made by J. L. Peetz, state statistical!. Mrs. Peetz will displace Miss Della Menke. It I has been'known for some time that Mrs. Peetz would occupy the position formerly occupied by Mary StubbsMoore under her father’s administration. When Mrs. Moore received her promotion to chief of the bureau Miss Menke was made chief deputy, which makes the line of women in the office unbroken for four years, 1 with the prospect of Mrs. Peetz for another two years. The office be-1 longed to Mrs. Peetz for another | reason besides the fact that she is the wife of the state statistician. She gave him such valuable assist-* ance through the Monon News, of which she was editor, that the statement is made in many quarters of the state that she elected him. Mr. Peetz announces the appointment of Wallace M. Denny, of Boonville, Warrick county, to the position of traveling deputy. Denny is a nephew of Caleb S. Denny, of Indianapolis, and is chairman of Warrick county. He was employed in the United States Census Bureau at the same time Mr. Peetz was there. He displaces Charles L. Stubbs. William M. Bailey is appointed field agent to succeed Will T. Walker. Mr. Bailey is from Terre Haute, where he was formerly a probation officer and deputy township assessor. Mr. Peetz said: “I want the clerks to know that their displacement is not the result of any lack of confidence on my part in their ability or competence. They have served efficiently in their respective fields.”
