New York.-A small, smooth shaved,
middle-aged man with a coat Of tan
that gave evidence Of much outdoor
life recently came into the Waldorf
carrying a suit case early in the after
o and registered as "Rolla Wells,
st. Louis, Mo"
The smooth shaved little man, who
is to be the watchdog Of the Wilson
campaign money from now on, was
asked for vital statistics, whereupon
it was learned at first hand that he is
a banker and ex-mayor of st. Louis,
is ffty-six years old, was graduated at
Princeton in 1876, or three years be-
fore Governor Wilson was graduated;
that he has two sons who are Prince
ton men and a grandson who some
day will be a Princeton man; that he
had no notion of seeing New York
this summer until the Wilson organi-
zation selected him as its treasurer
and that Just at present the one thing
that sticks out in the appointment in
his mind is that the new Job cut in Sc
riously upon a most beautiful vacation
which he and Mrs. Wells had been en-
joying in a camp at Little Traverse
bay, Michigan.
Mr.. Wells believes in getting at his
desk at 8 o'clock in the morning.

in sympathy with hers. Ours is not a
one sided life. We have been part.
ners. and that's the way It should be
IN this world"
Mrs. Marshall has watched over his
administration of the affairs Of Indiana
With a Jealous care There has been
nothing Of the spectacular In his ad-
ministration. 1t has been a sane gov
eminent. The laws that he has fought
for and won show the spirit of the
man. They are uplifting. They deal
with the improvement Of man. woman
and child.
While Governor Marshall is describ-
cd az a tender hearted" executive,
nevertheless, he Is a fighter. He be-
longs to the old lighting stock of Viz,

be known. While he Is an organization
man, he knows that organizations are

takes. If they make mistakes h'

the saying over at the first possible
moment.
The Lexington intelligencer. [volume] (Lexington, Mo.) 1901-1949, 1912-08-23


Mrs. Marshall is not satisfied with
her domestic duties alone. She wants
to do her share in problems Of the po-
litical and business world. Mrs. Mar
shall is said to have discussed in de-
tail with her husband his actions on
the Baltimore convention, and when it
was seen that Marshall was the man
who was going to go on the ticket
with Wilson he wanted to know what
his wife thought about 1t.
1T won't be any harder than being
governor of Indiana, and If the party
thinks you are the man it only agrees
with my opinion" she said, and that
settled the matter with Governor Mar
shall.
Mrs. Marshall had the honor Of be-
ing the first woman in Indiana to hold
an office. She was appointed county
clerk of Steuben county by her father
and held that office for a number Of
years.
When Governor Marshall and his
wife were about to be married she de-
cided that her last official act Of the
office would be to make out the a
rage license. Governor Marshall ac-
companied his wife to the county
clerks office and watched her with
care as she noted the records in the
big book and filed out the license and
watched her as she carefully signed
her fathers name, with her own as
deputy.
Mrs. Marshall, having blotted the
ink, said, Now we al 60"
mot yet laughed Governor Mar
shall.
Why, we are all fixed" explained
Mrs. Marshall, pointing to the license.
r Yes, but l have to pay for It," re-
i, piled the governor. IT'S all right for
you to make 1t out, but it's up to me
to pay the fee" And he did.
Mrs. Marshall is a keen student,
and, having established the practice of
/, going with her husband on all his
trips, be they short or long, they make
) it a point to carry along some books.
Mrs. Marshall Is as much Of a hu.
+ manitarian as the governor. A glance
+ at some of the bills that have been
passed by the 1911 Indiana legislature
8 gives an insight into the governor:
= To curtail child labor.
To regulate sale of cold storage
products.
e To require hygienio schoolhouses
t and medical examination Of children.
The prevent blindness at birth.
g To regulate sale of cocaine and 9th.
er drugs.
To provide free treatment for by.
drophobia.
To establish public Fairgrounds,
e To improve pure food laws.
To protect against loan sharks.
To provide police court matrons.
p To prevent traffic In white slaves.
To permit night schools.
. To require medical supplies as part
e Of a train equipment
s Governor Marshall has also played
an active part in providing for protec
S lion of labor, as is exampled by the
e following acts:
To create q bureau Of inspection
or workshops, factories, mines ant
. boilers.
To establish free employment agen
cles.
To require full train crews,
To require safety devices on switch
engines.
To require efficient headlights OF
n engines.
To require standard cabooses.
D. To provide weekly wage, etc.
n And Governor Marshall has con
suited with his partner" on all thes,
bills. He is quoted as saying a ma

that greeted Governor Marshall in the
big coliseum in the state fair grounds,
Indianapolis, on Tuesday were the
greatest in the history Of the party.
The west wanted to show the east
what could be done In notification
honors, and, while Mrs. Marshall was
happy, of course, over the honors for
her husband, she was also worried, for
her husband comes mighty close to
being father, husband, son and part
ner all In one. And when a woman
has that combination on her hands to
care for she has every right to be
worried.
Governor Marshall will never gain
any honors as a hammer thrower. He
is not built that way.
While all the country was reading
the vigorous words Of Governor Mar
SHALL which told the voters what he
expects Democracy to do in carrying
out the pledges for the next four years
it's worth while to know what part a
woman is taking in the affairs Of the
campaign-how Tom Marshall hap
pens to be In the position in which he
stands today.
The good people of Columbia City,
Ind, never thought Thomas Riley Mar
shall was a marrying man" For for.
ty years he had lived with his par
ents, nursing both his father and
mother, who were lnvalids, which was
the reason Governor Marshall was not
a marrying man. He felt his first duty
was to his parents.
Meeting Mrs. Marshall.
After the death Of his parents Gov.
ernor Marshall dived deeper into his
law practice, and one day an urgent
case took him to Angola, Ind. His du
ties called him to the county clerks
office, and there be met Miss Loir
Kimsey, daughter Of the county clerk
/ who was assisting her father In thu
ONCE.
From that day Governor Marshal
had more business around the count
clerks oflce In Angola than any law
yer in half a dozen nearby counties.
Governor Marshall was forty-tw,
years Of aga when he was married
Mrs. Marshall being nearly twent
years his Junior.
The Marshalls had been Marie,
only a few weeks when the futur
v~ice-prssident was called to an adsoin
ing county on a case that would con
sumo some Ave Of six weeks Of III
time.
Now, l did not want to be startini
of like that" Governor Marshall 81
plained to a friend one day, 80 / Jus

Since then Governor Marshall ha
never made a trip without Mrs. Mai
