TIMES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPITAL.


Indianapolis. Ind, Feb. 1.-The temp
erance democrats in the house are de-
pending largely on the attitude as
sumed by Governor Marshall in the
campaign to help them win their fight
against loose liquor laws. Since his
election to the office Of governor Mr..
Marshall has not uttered one word, so
far as is known, that would indicate
what his position on this question is
or what he would do with a bill to
repeal the county local. option law If
such bill were to pass the legisIa-
ture and come up to him for signature
He has kept away from the question en-
tirely and those who have been fol-
lowing the matter closely believe that
he has taken a very wise course in
doing so. 1t is not known that any
one has ever asked him to state his po-
sition on the matter, but If any have
done so they have not learned anything
from him. He said before election as
we'll as afterward and in his inaugural
address that he would not attempt to
control the legislature or to tell that
body what it should do or what ii
should not do. and he has kept close
to that line throughout the session thus
far. He holds that it is not the duty
OF he governor to make laws. 1t is
his duty to enforce the laws that are
made by the legislature.
| 1t is recalled however, that in his
speeches during the campaign Govern
or Marshall made the statement that
he would not sign any bill that would
in any manner destroy or affect the
Moore remonstrance law. He said that
it was a serious question whether the
passage of the county option law would
not repeal the Moore law. This was
! before the county option law wa:
passed. He said the question of wheth.
or county local option law woulC
repeal tho Moore law was a question
| for the courts to decide and not fol
him to settle. Just what he thinks of i
now is not known. because, as has beer

A DAY IN GARY LAND
HEARD BY RUDE.

AS far as the name of Gary's new
vaudeville house is concerned it sounds
like a top notcher.
Just about the time we succeed in
accommodating all the money we will
need for the next fifty years. the alarm
clock gets busy and wakes US up.
Gary lovers of the fistic art can now
rest assured that there will be no prize
lighting in this neck of the woods.
Work was resumed in all ines of
building work today. It takes more
than an ordinary blizzard to put stop
to building operations in Gary.
When Broadway is extended to Mer-
rillville it will make the finest kind
of speedway for autoists.
All reports indicate that the Gary
real estate dealers will have a quiet
time for a few days.
Meanwhile let the first robins thor
oughly understand that he is doing it
on his own responsibility.
Gary people have been warned more
than once to keep the snow shovel
where it was handy
One good thing Gary people will not
be kept awake at night on account OF
| the old windmill of the Falkaneau Con-
struction company The wind did its
duty.
| The backbone of winter was not very
badly broken. 1t was mistake.
The Gary fire department, although
slightly crippled from their Thursday
nights experience, are ready at a mo-
ment's notice to take care of anything
in the way of a fire.

COUNTY OPTION QUESTION
WILL Be THRAGHED OUT
Politicians Agree That Governor Marshall Is Taking
Wise Stand in Handling 'Live Wire
Proposition.

said. he is not discussing the liquor
quetion with anyone.
But the temperance democrats are
pointing to Governor Marshalrs pre-
election speeches in support of their
position. 1t is said that there are six
men in the house who will stand OPP
posed to any bill of any kind what
ever that will repeal or change the
county local option law in any manner.
They are said to be Hostetter, Clore,
Merriman, Chrisney, Sticks and Maish.
Then they say there are ten others
who will vote against repeal unless
the repeal bill substitutes township and
ward local option, high license and 9TH
er strong restrictions.
But the six members who are abso-
lutely opposed to any kind of a repeal
bill, so it is understood, will seek to
prevent the passage OF any bill that
will include the high license, and strict
regulation of saloons and they will
fight any attempt to have the bill re-
enact the Moore remonstrance law.
This sounds strange, but the purpose
of these six members is first to pre-
vent the passage of any repeal BILL and
If they fail in this then they want the
repeal bill to be so weak that the gov
ernor will not sign it. They say that
if he refuses to sign any bill that does
not re-enact the Moore law and they
are able to keep out of the bill such a
re- enactment they feel that such a bill
will be vetoed At least, this is the
line on which they are working at
present. They will vote against any
attempt to have the repeal bill re-enact
the Moore law.
This leaves the democratic side OF
the house so badly split on the liquor
question that it can do nothing at al
unless some of the fellows change their
minds before the time comes to vote
And they say they will not. These are
the things that are to be threshed out
at the democratic house caucus tonight
if they can get enough members to-
gether to hold a caucus But what
ever the caucus does and whatever ac-
/ ton 1t may take, there are these temp
erance democrats who will not b
! bound by 1t.
