INDIANA LEGISLATOR SAYS AN
ATTEMPT WAS MADE TO PUR.
CHASE HIS VOTE.

Indianapolis, Feb. 2S.-The special
Investigating committee appointed by
Speaker Sydney Cantwell Of the
house Of representatives, following the
declaration of Representative Ananias
Baker of Fulton and Cass counties,
who in explaining his vote on the anti
cigarette bill in the house during the
day, produced letter containing q
800 bill, which he charged was sent
to him by those interested in the de-
feating such legislation, at night is
sued An affidavit for the arrest of o.
A. Baker of Marion, former state
senator, charging him with attempting
to corrupt Representative Baker. The
Investigating committee, with the as
sistance of Attorney General Charles
w. Miller, who did the questioning,
wrung from Representative Baker the
name of the ex-state senator only after
half an hour of persistent and cleverly
laid questions. Mr.. Baker said he
had promised the alleged briber not
to divulge his name in order to draw
him out.

present law. 1t would seem all OBJ
jections to the passage of the bill had
been removed by the provision that
two years are given in which officials
and the people can familiarize them
selves with the law, and, should the
concensus of opinion be against it's
adoption the next legislature can re-
peal or amend it. To overcome the
objection of abstractors it is provided
that when one applies for registry,
certificate from legal abstractor
must accompany the application. This
law is in force in several of the states,
notably Illinois where its use is op-
tional, and is becoming more popular
than was anticipate. 1t is found that
it materially reduces court expenses
and is in many ways more satisfactory
than the old law, though it will prob
ably take number of years before it
is exclusively used. Although hedged
about by every possible provision for
the safety and accuracy of titles, in
its main features it is a very simple
proposition. It will amply repay those
not familiar with it's main provisions
to seek Information from those men,
bers of either house who have made
the system a study or who have prac-
teal knowledge of its operation. 1t is
measure we'll worth mature consid-
Grafton.

1t is noticed that in the considera-
ton of many bills the committees fail
to recognize and correct typographical
errors, incorrect phraseology, wrong
numbering of sections, etc. In order
that the statute books may be as free
from errors as possible bills in COM
mittees should be closely scanned by
some person familiar with the form
and procedure of legislative acts. One
glaring error in the title of a bill, if
the title is as it appears in the house
journal of the SD day, is now in mind.
1t reads as follows:
"a bill for an act to amend
chapter 204 of the session laws of
1901, being section 1854 of the
revised codes of 1899. That chap
ter 204 of the session laws of 1901
shall be amended to read as fol-
lows"
1t is needless to say that the last
clause does not belong in the title.

much dissatisfaction, much complaint
and injustice. The Bismarck Tribune
began the publication of this list two
years ago, as a matter of news, and
its publication brought to the atten-
ton of the equalization board many
inequalities that were, In measure,
rectified. But this is class Of matter
that newspapers generally could not
afford to run unless they are paid a
nominal sum. 1t would be money we'll
expended by each county and the Tri-
bune ventures the prediction that, if
once adopted the popular interest in it
would be very manifest.

Senator Plains Torrens land tenure
bill has been reported to the senate
with amendments, the principal fea-
ture of these being that the bill shall
not go into effect until January 1,
1907; that no certificate of title shall
be filed without an abstract from
bonded abstractor and that lands
which have been registered under the
act may be Withdrawn and filed under
the old law. The bill provides that it
shall be optional with the people as to
whether they use this system or con-
tinue with the present. which gives an
opportunity to thoroughly test the
workings of the act without disturb
ing the validity of titles under the
