ROBERTS CENTER
CAPITAL. TANGLE
Former State StatiStiCian,
Whose Office is Abolished,
Likened to "Finnegan."

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Jan. 16.-
Henry Roberts, erstwhile state
statis.ician. whose office was abol-
ished by the 1917 legislature. and
who has since been the object Of
more scurrying around and worry
ing around on the part of himself
and others closely associated with
him on the state payroll than any
other single duty that ever has been
performed in the state statistician's
office late Tuesday apparently was
face 10 face with another serious
operation-the elimination Of his APP
preparation for about the 'steenth
time. Mr.. Roberts has been of and
on the state payroll. since october
when the legislative prohibition
against further remuneration for
the gentleman from Carmel, so
much that his friends now are call
ins him "Finnegan". And then,
late last week, apparently he had
been fixed so that he would no more
worry or scurry. For AttOrney-gen-
eral Stansbury gave a very lengthy
opinion-in fact two Opinions-to
Gov. James =. Goorich, in which he
practically nullihed the action Of the
legislature. In these opinions the
Encouragement held, generally
that Roberts still could be paid a
salary of $4,000 a year and that the
expenses of the labor bureaus
throughout the cities of the state. at
Indianapolis. Granville. Terre
Haute. south Bend and Fort Wayne.
could be paid and the clerks and
assistants in these offices could be
paid their salaries SO far so good.
Mr. Roberts and his friends grin
ned broadly and sat themselves
down 10 wonder at the ease with
which life apparently was flowing
past.
Then somebody bethousht them
selves Tuesday TO wander down 10
the auditors Office and collect some
of the back pay that was due, since
October Mr. Otto KLAUS. state
auditor, apparently paid some of
this and all was serene in the abOl-
ished state statistician's Office at
lesat for the nonce.
Then Mr. Roberts went down TO
get the remainder of his salary,
and-lo, a snag stuck up out of the
water Mr.. Klauss refused to pay
the money until GOV. Goodrich put
his John Hancock across the
vouchers, thereby signifying whole
souled satisfaction with all the con-
ditions pertaining thereto now. or in
the future. Now the governor al
ways has been known as a canny

soul, and mighty few bad notes
have found their way to the collec-
ton agencies, with him as the guar
antee thereof. Apparently his can
ny training came TO the front in the
Roberts case. for he put out his
hand towards Mr.. klauss with a
gesture of utter remuneration and
said some words, which sounded,
translated, strangely like Nix.
Whereupon, Mr.. KLAUS, in a quiet
little statement to the news pers,
opined that il appeared as if the
gOvernOr-perhaps very righteously
were passing the buck. Now Mr..
KLAUS, hailing from Evansville,
knows scarcely anything about the
old game of passing the buck, but
he says he has often in his child
hood heard the veterans of Evans
vile discuss the problems attendant
TO "stickin' TO a pat hand. That's
what he's goins TO do in the Rob-
erts case, he said Tuesday
Whereupon il was noised abroad
by Mr.. Roberts that he just feels
like resigning from the Indiana
state statistician's job-and letting
the governor appoint him as state
commissioner of fisheries and game
10 succeed Eugene c. Shireman of
Martinsville. This latter plan would
be extremely fortunate for every
body concerned. it is known, if Gov.
Goodrich would only determine to
carry out his part of the program
therein contained. But the COVER
nor, being convinced that Mr.. Shire
man should retain his office at least
until the end of his term, it appears
that Mr.. Roberts ct. al, will be
compelled once more TO undergo the
very serious operation of having his
appropriation cut off. The satuatiOn
is causing extreme concern in some
quarters and extreme mirth in some
other quarters.
