TO REGULATE CORPORATIONS.
Ipdiana's New Governor Makes Stock
Water Burden OF Inaugural.

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. ll.-Thomas +.
Marshall was formerly inaugurated as
Governor Of Indiana to-day in the pres
enoe of the Senators and Representatives
in the Legislature and a crowd Of men
and women that filled every available
inch of space in the State House corridors.
The Governors inaugural adrdess was
listened TO with great attention.
After declaring that it is the province
of an Executive To enforce and not 70
make laws he recommended an investi-
cation by the Legisla ture Of all the Offices
under the Safe Government to the end
that it might be determined if there had
been extravaganza or allowances not
provided by law or the straining Of statutes
in the interest OF the Office holder.
He declared that -the metropolitan
police law is q violation of the doctrine
of local self government and recon-
mended its immediate repeal. He also
recommended an amendment to the cor
porate laws Of the State. TO the end that
thereafter a dollars worth in money
or in property Of the fair face value thereof
in the market must go into every corpo-
ration for every dollar Of stock, and no
bonds shall ever be fioated until dollar
for dollar shall pass into the treasury
Of the corporation floating the same.
Speaking OF the problem confronting
the people in respect to corporations,
he said: The problem confronting the
people Of this State with reference to
corporations and stock and bonds which
have been watered is one that can not be
equitably adjusted of hand 1t must,
however, be true that as the corporation
is the creature OF the State, the State
must. by every application OF law. retain
the right to control and regulate the cor
poration.
"The creature cannot legally grow to
be greater than its creator. To squeeze
the water out, as it is popularity described
has the feature in it Of making the just
pay the penalty Of the unjust. While
discussing these problems and seeking
a remedy we are permitting our corpo-
rate laws to remain as they we're and we
are breeding other corporations which
will water their stock and their bonds
the same as those concerning which we
complain. Whether We can remedy the
evil OF the past or not We can prevent a
OF il for the future"

COUNTS PRISON TIME TWICE.
Dean sw1ndier Would onset State SEN
tence With Federal Sentence.


James B. Kellogg Of the Dean syndi-
cate" Of swindlers has been in Sing Sing
prison since December 0. 1908. andnow
seeks to get out on habeas corpus.
Briefly stated Kellogg's argument is
that il the Federal courts sentence you
to jail after the State courts have SEN
fenced you. but before they've been able
to get you TO jail, because OF your ap-
peals, why then, IL you do 60 TO Jail. you
serve out both sentences concurrently'
which saves a lot OF time in jail.
Kellogg was sentenced on April IL. 1900.
by Recorder Gof to serve seven and a
half years in Sing Sing for grand larceny.
He got a certificate of reasonable doubt
and was released on $4,000 bail. =,
About a year later he was convicted
in the United States Circuit Court OF
using the mails fraudulently and was
sentenced to eighteen months in sing
Sing and o fne OF $500. He got a stay Of
this sentence also on giving bail bond
OF SIS 900.
In December, 1908. his appeal in the
Federal court was dismissed and his
bondsman surrendered him. Marshal
Henkel took him to Sing Sing and turned
him over to the warden.
Kellogg's Federal sentence expired on
April Z, 1905, but on March 1. 1906 on the
motion Of District Attorney jerome.
Justice Fitzgerald, in the Supreme Court.
dismissed the certificate OF reasonable
doubt and stay obtained in the State
court. Mr.. Jerome forwarded n copy
of this decision. with the original SEN
tence. TO Sing Sing, and holds that kel
logg's State sentence began to run on
March l. 1905, when Justice Fitzgeralds s
mittimus was fled,
SoKellogg got his habeas corpus, which
will be returned to-day before Justice
Erlanger OF the Supreme Court Dis
trict Attorney Jerome will oppose the
theory that two prison terms are to be
reckoned concurrent.

monies we're attended by immense

Gov. Hadley sounded several important
keynotes in his inau gural speech. Sitting
at his side was former Governor Folk, who
heard the new Executive say there would
be no back ward step in law enforcement.
He promised home rule to the large cities,
but the -lid' must stay on; he advocated
civil service and merit system for the
police forces. exclusion Of representatives
Of liquor interests in politics, prohibition
Of the sale Of liquor in lid clubs and the
giving Of local option to residence dis
tricts instead OF by wards in the cities.
He says the initiative and referendum
will not prove general panacea for public
evils, that election boards in large cities
should be authorized to appoint judges
and clerks who do not live In the ward or
precinct in which they serve. that the
Senatorial primary law should be re-
pealed and changes made in the priplary
election law. that a public service oor-
poration commission should be authorized
and that q new law prohibiting railroads
from issuing passes should be passed.
He favors the regulation NJ the trusts
the supervision Of schools in each county
and the appointment OF judicial COM

urges changes in the taxation system and
also a system Of state roads TO be built

10 most important to know in view OF
present revelations, a third party was
present, Count Berchthold. Austrian Am
bassador at st. Petersburg, then on a
leave OF absence.
Baron Won Aehrenthal opened out on
the theme that the establishment OF the
new regime in Turkey concerned all her
neighbors. He could foresee that Aus
tria's occupation OF Bosnia -Herzeg govina
would eventually become permanent. In
that event what measures would Russia
wish taken to satisfy her own position?

struggles had brought into political ex-
istence. become entirely independent; also

toned that Russia would like to have the
treaty restrictions cancelled that bar

the Mediterranean Baron Won Aehren-
thai professed sincere sympathy for
Russian aspirations.
What was NJ. Isvolskys horror when
he beheld within week OF the interview
and before he could consult his friends
in Paris and London that the Austrian
Minister had rushed the pass Worse
still. Baron Won Aehrenthal had more than
half discerned M. Isvolsky beforehand by
giving voluntarily the guarantees of
good will that the Russian diplomat
had instanced Novibazar was forthwith
evacuated. Bulgaria was told that Aus
tria and Russia both wished to see her
independent and she acted promptly on
the good news. As for the passage OF the
Dardaneles, the Austrian Minister was
in the perfect security Of knowing that
he could never be made responsible for
anything he promised regarding them.
The only immediate salvage that NJ.
Isvolsky could hope for after Austria's
raid was that he could take home to Rus
sia permission for war vessels to leave
the Black Sea. Even that was denied

he had to hear the same sentence. that the

We are not sure of but one Revolutionary soldier, Asa GeodeiI, Senior. Possibly if we looked into the history of the ancient markers of other graves, we should find there were more. At the Centre yard there were more soldiersis graves. There were also good soldiers of Jesus Christ in these differ ent yards to whom loving tribute was paid All of this seems to be for what the observance of the day was inaugu- rated, instead of the high carnival and upriotous demonstrations often seen.
