.DUFFEY HIGHWAY BILL
is ALMOST PERFECTION
One Representative. However, Says
Amendments Afiect Very Es-
scnce of Measure.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind Feb. 3. -
The Duffey highway commission bill,
which has been the center of attrac-
ton in the house for several weeks
has at last reached what is believed
by many TO be the stage of perfec-
ion" The printed bill contains
amendments which affect the very
essence of the measure, il was stated
by Rep. Moore, a member of the
house roads committee.
We nov have a bill which we
hope and believe will be accepta BILE
10 all persons concerned said Rep.
Moore. The amendments which
have been made to the bill abolish
the system of levying improvement
taxes against adjacent property as
well as placing all of the expenses
of construction of roads on the state
and county. When the highway is
constructed the expense of maintain
ing the roads is placed against the
state and the county is released from
its obligations ard responsibilities

under the amended measure which
will be up for consideration in the
house within the next week or so"
Other members of the house have
been rather slow TO express their
opinions of the amended highway
commission bill although there has
been but little sentiment expressed
against the amended measure from
either the democratic or republican
side of the house. In the senate, the
democratic leaders are claiming a
virtual victory in the matter of the
Duffey bill as they were given a
hearing regarding the measure and
their suggestions given a preference
over the republican proposals. ac-
cording TO a number of democratic
leaders.

ELECTION MAY
Be HELD IN SUMMER
Goshen OryS Determined That
No Saloons Shall Again Be
Operated.
News Times Special Service :


GOSHEN, Feb. although In
diana is TO become dry by statute.
April ?. 1918. local option election
will in all probability be held in Co
shen in May or June. The last cleo
ton, May 3, 1915. resulted in a dry
victory by lead of about 22O votes
Local drys are determined TO have
no saloons in the city from the ex-
plration of the two years until the
law passed by the present general
assembly becomes effective. April >.
1918. Vets were very hopeful or
winning at he coming contest and
were prepared TO defer the election
until midsummer. at which time
nearly all Goshen college students
are out of the city. Heretofore. the
students have been an important
factor in voting the city dry. While
the passage of the state wide prohi-
bitiOn law by the general assembly
has had the effect of discouraging
vets generally, it is known that sew
eral former Goshen saloonists would
grasp the opportunity to re-enter
the retail liquor business in this city
from the end of the two year dry
period until the whole state becomes
dry by statute They estimate that
saloon earnings during that time
would be unusually heavy.
Whether a local option election is
to be held at Elkhart is not known.
That city voted wet q week after
Goshen ousted saloons i'm 1915. Dur
ing the very hot weather last sum-
mer some Goshen merchants rea-
soned wet Elkhart was interfering
with Goshen retail trade.
Goshen drys have made the dec
laration they are not going to toll
crate saloons here even for a few
months and therefore a local option
election soon after May 3rd, is re-
garded as certain, no matter what
the decision may be at Elkhart
