Indianapolis, Ind, April 9.-Governor
Hanly in the guise of the friend and
protector of the railroads is a situation
that would ordinarily bring a smile to
the face of the average Indianian, and
yet from story that developed around
| the state house today, it appears that
he is to be given the creditor what
ever 1t is, for appearing in that role.
1t is understood that the 1907 acts
might have been published and pro-
claimed as laws as early as yesterday,
had it not been for the determination
of the governor to give the railroads
a little more time in which to prepare
their tariff sheets under the new two
cent fare law. AS a matter of fact all
of the receipts were not in the secre-
tary Of states Office yesterday, hence
the laws could not have been proclaim
ed. But the point is made that the
receipts could have been obtained by
yesterday, inasmuch as the last of the
acts were sent out Friday night ex
cept those for Marion county, and they
were delivered by Saturday noon. A
little extra telephoning Saturday af-
ternoon would have brought in all of
the receipts by yesterday, and the laws
could have been proclaimed.
Railroads Not Prepared.
But the matter was not rushed, and
the understanding around the state
house is that the governor was impor-
tuned by the railroad men to give them
a few days more time. They presented
to him the fact that they had not yet
been able to get their new passenger
tariffs printed and distributed. Only
one company, the Lake Erie & West
ern, had its tariffs ready by Monday
evening, it is understood, and the gov
ernor, in order to accommodate the
i railroad men to this extent, agreed
| tacitly that there would be no undue
haste in the publication of the acts.
This is set now for tomorrow some
time probably in the morning. Fol-
lowing that tariff sheets or no tariff
sheets. two cents a mile will be the
legal fare in Indiana.
The governor still makes the attempt
to come to the Office. Yesterday again
he came down, made several appoint
ments. spent the morning in interview
ing job seekers and their friends and
then at noon, went home. absolutely
exhausted He is turning around again
on the question of a vacation, and his
friends say that he will just have to
be shown" before he can be convinced
of the absolute necessity of a real rest.
He is pale very thin, weak and trembly,
and his voice, usually so strong and
penetrating is weak and pitched in a
high key. And it is on par with his
general physical condition.
DIR. Hurty's Bulletin.

tising quacks-they are more interest
ed in your money than your health.

possible in the open air, protected il
winter by suitable clothing.
"S. If possible, sleep out of doors
in a tent or on porch. If this is i'm
possible, sleep in room with all Of
the windows open, l with enough
cover to keep you wa l. Sun and all
the room we'll during day.
"a. Sleep alone. / possible, let nC
one else sleep in the same room.
