Representative Dowdy has announce ed that he will initiate the bill which he has vainly attempted to pass dur ing the present session, providing for Q fiscal board to control and have su- pervision of the financial affairs of the various officers and departments of state. It has been before the house in two different forms. The first was overwhelmingly defeated, and the sec ond was referred, after a considerable debate. to the Committee on Ways and Means. This, declared the author of the bill, means the "chloroforming of the measure" He said that he would give the people an opportunity to vote on the bill at the next general cleo tion and see whether or not they want the proposed changes made in the manner of conducting the business of the state institutions.
 In a sarcastic speech on the floor, deploring the defeat of his bill, and opposing the Rorex bill for the crea- tion of the office of state accountant, MT. Dowdy condemned what he called the unwarranted interference of the governor in matters of legislation. He said the Rorex bill was written by the governor and was a part of his pro- gram to secure control of the affairs of state. The governor was defended by MT. Condray MT. Brawner and others, who asserted that they consid- l made no difference where it originat- ed. The bill was defeated, however, by vote of 3S to 50.
 It would have created the office of state accountant to be filled by ap- pointment of the governor for pc riod of six years at a salary of S3,000 per year and expenses. Among the ar. guments advanced against the bill by its opponents was that it creates an. other office at a heavy expense to the state which would not have been of sufficient benefit to compensate for the cost; also that it gives the gov ernor too much power in the appoint ment of state officials The friends of the measure contended that it would provide a check upon the expenditure of public money by the various de- partments and would render unneces- sary the employment of special audi tors such as are now being employed at an expense of S10 day each for the purpose of checking up the depart. ments and institutions.
