The state treasurer and state auditor
question bobbed up serenely in the House
yesterday morning once more. Repre-
sentative Maull introduced two resolu-
tons naming the Republican nominees.
Adkins and Knowles, once again. Mr..
Biggs moved to amend by substituting
Herbert for Adkins, and Eckels also
moved an amendment of Boyce for
Knowles. OF course both amendments
were rejected the resolutions were
adopted and sent to the Senate where they
were promptly non-concurred in. Every
body smiled and the ghost again disap-
peared to arise, whenl 1t is now be-
heved that the Republicans viii go on a
new track and send in the names of two
Democrats. neither Of when will be Her.
bert and Boyce. The Senate will follow
It's present course. and then It all de-
pends upon what the Republicans will
agree upon. Just what they see in their
present course is hard to determine.
They have only done one thing since
they first started in to be admired and that
is they have been persistent. Just what
they expect to gain by persisting from
now on is hard to see. The only thing
that is being accomplished is to render
insecure the condition of the state
