Anita Stewart is the only daughter
OF William Rhlnelander Stewart of New

by her uncle, Lispenard Stewart. She
brought with her from Europe her

years.

GOVERNOR WILL
VETO BILLS FOR
MORE SALARIES
Measure for Relief of Lake
County Official Only One
to Go Through.
LOOKS AFTER WOMEN

Gov. James P. Goodrich will veto all
bills raising the salaries of public Of
fcials which have been passed by the leg
islature in special session. with the ex-
ception of the Lake county bill, it was
learned on reliable authority today.
A number of salary increase bills have
been passed by both houses during the
session and several were introduced. but
failed
When the special session was called,
Gov. Goodrich stated he would sign
only essential bills, and this understand
ing prevented many members OF both
houses introducing salary increase meas
ures.
Several representatives have protested
on the floor Of the house against the IN
PRODUCTION Of q number Of salary increase
bills on the ground that they had in
formed their constituents none would be
considered
1t is understood that the only in
crease bill which will be signed by the
governor raises the salary Of the auditor
Of Lake county.
Among the bills which the governor
is expected to veto Is one restoring
IS per day fee to county auditors and
treasurers for attending meetings OF the
county board Of review, and a bill In
crensing the salary Of the Marion county
assessors and deputies.
It Is thought that the action Of the
governor IN vetoing the salary increas sc
bills will meet with the approval Of many
members OF both houses who refused TO
introduce such measures.
The governor has yet to sign the bill
carrying appropriations totaling more
than a million dollars for state institu-
lions and departments.
This measure Will, OF course. go
through, as the deplorable financial con-
ditions Of the state institutions were
one OF the causes for calling the spe-
cial session.
The governor has signed all election
bills passed which provide for the regis
tering Of the female voters as well as
providing ballots.
He has also signed a bill appropriating
$50 900 for the special session.
