! GOVERNORS OF MOST
STATES LIVE IX LUXURY
Indianapolis, Feb. 24—Having re
ceived no encouragement from Sam
uel M. Ralston, democratic gov
ernor of Indiana, the bill to pro
. vide him with a costly residence is
dead soon after its birth, just as
half a dozen others had died before
it. Indiana governors, particularly
Thomas U. Marshall and Governor
Ralston, cave preferred to pay rent
ratner than spend state funds for
a mansion.
Investigation by the office of
.lohn A. Lapp, legislative reference
bureau i-hief, disclosed that other
fetates have not been so slow in
bestowing magnificance on their
chief executives. Illinois, for in
stance, not only has provided a
sumptuous mansion in the exclusive
11 esidentnl district, but has formed
j the habit of handing the governor
$15,000 a year additional for cigars,
servant aire, "upkeep,* reception ex
penses, etc.
Southern hospitality may have led
three southern states to out-distance
all competitors in providing for their
governors. Maryland spent $250,
000; North Carolina $150,000 and
Georgia $100,000. Maryland gives
her governor the handsome sum of
: $10,000 annually to maintain his
mansion, while the governor of
j North Carolina is left high and dry
without state aid in taking care of
his costly home. Kentucky appro
priated $93,000 for the- mansion
and then raised the Governor's sal
ary $1,500 a year to take care of
the up-fceep.
"Hoos.ei Democrats" point with
pride to the fact that the vice presi
dent whtm governor refused to
accept tiw price of hi? rant from
the legislature and to Governor
j Ralston who promised to veto the
| measure giving him a homa

■ Albany, N. Y., Feb. 24—Local
club women would tie Albany min

curfew law. They have already
pleaded their case before the city
fathers. These aow have the pro

$10 a pair are further away than ■
ever, the department of agriculture
announces, for tho reason that for
th>» first time in many years all '
classes of live stock in the United
States are increasing In numbeis.
Despite the ravages ot foot-and- i
mouth disease, the number of beef .
cattle Increased by nearly a million ;
and a quarter, or 3.4 per cent, last
year, after declining steadily ever
since 1910. There were half a mil
liou more milch cows on January 1
than a year ago. Swine Increased
nearly 6,000,000, or more than nine
per cent. In the face of the ex
portation of horses to the allies,
these animals Increased 233,000
head, and there is no reason to
fear a shortage of horses, says tho
department. The Increasing use of
autos took the average price of,
horses down ?6 and mules down
$11.50 during the year.
Importation of hides showed a
falling off. "There la, however,"
saya the department, "little reason
to suppose this decrease will be
permanent or of sufficient im
portance to create any real scarcity.
Since the great bulk of the imported
hides do not come from countries now
at war, shipments are not Interfered
with in any way, and the only new
factor to be considered is the pos
sibility of an increasing demand by
the warring countries.
