WEAK POINTS IN LAWS
yOTIN MACHINE COMMISSION Is
WITHOUT FUNDS.
No Provision Made for Postage or
Travelling Expenses-Mr. Min
turn Finds "A Mistake.

Albert r. Thompson. the local member
OF the newly appointed Indiana voting ma
chine commission, called on Assistant At
torney General Merrill Moores yesterday
afternoon to ind out If there is any legal
provision by which the commission can
have its expenses, such as travelling and
stationery, paid by the State. An examina-
ton OF the law creating the commission
disclosed that il makes no provision what
ever for expenses. Mr.. Thompson said the
members of the commission do not feel
that they ought TO send out official COM
munications on their private letter heads.
nor do they care to pay for stationery and
postage out OF their own pockets. Mr..
Moores gave IT as his ohhand opinion that
the laws Of the State afford no relief for
this contingency. but said he would ex-
anime into the question carefully.
The law creating the commission requires
each voting machine company making APP
plication TO the commission TO pay each
member $50 and all expenses incurred in
making an investigation Of the machine.
The commission has organized and elected
officers as follows: Chairman. Hugh Dough
erty,r or Button: secretary, Albert r.
Thompson. OF indianapolis. ard treasurer.
Frank l.. Powell. OF Madison. The first reg
ular meeting will be held In Room l. of
the Statetouse May 10 and on the third
"wednesday IF each month thereafter.

S. B. DEAD.
He Had "a phenomenal Rise from Pow,
erty to Amuence.

Samuel b. McMurray, formerly of this
city and we'll known throughout the coun-
try as one of the early vaudeville per-
formers and later as a manufactures of
patent medicines, died yesterday morning
at his home in Toledo, o.. He was born
here IN 1913, and after spending his early
life on the stage returned home almost
destitute. Without funds he began the
manufacture of a medicine, the recipe for
which was given to him by the late DR..
Athon His financial circumstance were
such that crudely he made scales for the
weighing of the component parts of the
preparation, not having money with which
to purchase them. His first advertisements
were circulars, for which he secured credit
TO the amount of $3.50 at a printing house.
During the next ten years his business
grew and the shop which had given him
credit was given about $4,000 worth of
work. He bought the building in MOnu-
ment place known later as the Iron Hall
building. and six years ago, after residing
for a number of years in Washington, ID.
c., removed TO Toledo. o.. where he built
a large business block. He was regarded
at the time of his death as worth at least
500. 900. He leaves a widow, several broth
ers and a sister. Athon r. McMurray. of
this city, was a brother. An adopted
daughter. Rose McMurray, was born and
reared here.
