IX DI ANA PO EIS, Ind., Jar. 8. Developments in politics in Indiana

during the week hinged practically I

entirely on the starting of the 70th general assembly, which got under way for a Cl-day tn'p last Thursday. Much already has been written about the 70th general assembly and much more will be written. It promises to hold within it pcssibilitie.s of the bitterest lighting that has been seen since the old days when local option tights were the general rule in Indiana. Liquor problems already beset the members and the "underground railroad" already is alive with passengers. Dozens of other very pertinent problems are in the path of this legislature. Many had declared that few bills would be introduced at this session. Rumor has it that John A. Iapp. director of the state bureau of legislative information, already has prepared more than 500 bills for members of the assembly. This, of course, represents but a small part, probably, of the total number of measures that will be introduced. Message Widely Distributed. Gov. Ralston's message to the legislature, delivered last Thursday, now has been printed widely. Many of the recommendations contained therein undoubtedly will be supported in the supplemental message of Gov. -elect Goodrich to the body this week. Neither apparently is interested in the passage of u statewide prohibition law, yet both have underwritten the constitutional convention idea, which is in its last analysis the same thing as a statewide prohibition law. because it is confidently believed by practically

all persons that a real vote of the citizenship of Indiana on the liquor question would throw the state into the ,,dry" column. Advocates of the constitutional convention plan lo point out that if statewide prohibition is adopted by this legislature, automatically the entire liquor problem becomes again the "football of politics." These advocates of a convention

further point out that if statewide prohibition is adopted by this legislature, automatically all th? nowwarring elements that support the liquor traffic will bo jointed together in defense of the traffic and that thus a united front of the enemies of contitutional prohibition would be apparent just at the time a constitutional convention would swing into its duties. Such a condition, these anti-liquor nen say, would defeat the entire purpose of the bght. Thus are they auainst statewide statutory prohibition. "Drys" Hate Majority. Yet with these men arguing in that fashion, there still remains a decided element in the legislature that will seek to vote the state "dry" by statute. A prominent member of the house, who comes from "wet" territory in the state, said today that he confidently believes the advocates of statutory prohibition at the present writing have a majority of "perhaps two or three" in the 100 members of the house. This man is atrainst orohibition bv statute, but

says his constituency 'wouldn't be nearly so hard on me" if I voted for a constitutional convention. The senate, from this long-range view-point, apparently will be the real battle ground of the earlier days of the session. The body is equally divided between republican and democrats and it is declared that the "heavy efforts" of both sides in the wet ami dry tight have been lodged among the members of the house. Already the strain there has begun to tell. The republicans as early as Friday found themselves in an uproar. Rii1i a Question Mark. Edgar G. Hush, the incoming lieutenant-governor. iias been a large question marl; in the eyes of many republican leaders here ever since he was elected to the position. Rush is a former progressive. Friday it was discovered thit Bush

i was goj: , aneau 10 eompiete ins

list c committee appointments without consulting any of the republican senators about the chairmanship or memlerships. This just naturally "blew the top off" the legislative situation in the senate. The republican Minators held a secret caucus over the situation and

enough leakefl out from that meet-

I ing to show that everything was not goini; right. The caucus chairman, however, on adjournment, declared i that whatever differences had exi i-ted between Mr. Rush and the I members of the senate, has been 1 "ironed out" satisfactorily. Rut it is known that there is I muc h criticism of Mr. Rush's individualist! policies and this opposition is sure to crop out in the I coming days of the senate. An- ' other bomb shell, in connection with certain high leaders in the ! senate, has been secretly discussed 1 here but to date no authentic group lot facts tonnc-cfed with it has come ; to light and the rumor cannot be ; printed at this time, because of various uncertainties connected with it, e.-lon To Re Automatic.

tion confronts the members directly. The women already have begun their onslaught and their leadcxrs declare they will make this 70tn general assemoly "come across." From this distance it looks as if some sort of a woman suffrage lawwould be passed. tiood roads legislation is again to be a stuirrMing block in the paths of the legislators. Some of the hUhest leaders in both houses, including Speaker Jesse Eschbach of the house are determined that there shall be no legislation, looking towards the creation of a state highway commission, it is said. Gov. Ralston strongly advocated the creation of sucii a state department of highways in his message. Many in the house are determined there shall be some sort of legislation. Among these is Rep. Euke W. Duffey of Indianapolis. It had been supposed for many weeks that Duffey would be made chairman of the roads committee in the house. Now it lias been cetmitely determined, it is reported, that Speaker Eschlbach will not appoint Duffey, but will name such a man as Rep. Men. denhall a staunch "mud roads" man. For the chairmanship of the public morals committee in the house there also is a contest on, with the "drys" much in the lead. Speaker Eschbach is a "dry" and all of the four candidates that have been mentioned so far for the place (the public morals committee will pass on the liquor bills) are "drys."

OKLAHOMA BANDITS STILL ELUDE POSSE Leaders K.eet to Give No Quarter When Meeting Men Who Killed Two of Their Number. NOWATA. Jan. 7. Posses Sunday failed to come into contact Avith the band of outlaws who Saturday

killed two possemen and wounded a third during a skirmish in a ravine near here where the passe attempted to capture the bandits, suspected of being bank robbers. Several times .Sunday the posse was close to the bandits but always the trail it followed led them just behind its quarry. A camp fire of moidering embers, discarded clothing and articles which might impede the progress of escape led the posse on, hopeful of catching the outlaws just around the hill." At one point the posse arrested a Negro who possessed articles which vere stolen recently from a store In this part of the state. The prisoner declared he received them from four men in exchange for a revolver.
