Phone 393 In a recent report of the iwou fish way commission, 'in the aii.r-o-s of moiiey expended in rach county, for that of Marion tho figure is given as If20:i,(iti0 for tho bridge; In responso to nu inquiry ng to whether this money was from the stuto highway depart ment, it may be said that tho $203,000 was every dollar Marion county funds. It is thought that In making its state ment, the highway commission put in Marion county for $203,000 of statu money from llie fact that the money was handled and nil bills paid and aud ited by tho state highway commission, according to law. Tho highway do partnii'iit furnished tho plans for the bridge and acted as consulting engi neers for Marion county, but not a dol lar of state highway money went into tho bridge. Nor was any monoy what ever appropriated this year by tne state highway commission for Marion couiitv roads. Rather than bring the fight for the speakership into tho legislature, it seems that Denton Burdiek, tho final opponent of Seymour Jones, has laid down and is making the best terms pos sible for his friends. By "terms" is meant assignments to tho best commit tees. To tho vUtor belongs the spoils and in this case those who have sup ported Mr. Jones through thick uud thin will naturally be assigned to the best committot s. It is understood mat s few days ago Mr. Jones gave his op ponent to understand that if ho did make a final fight in the legislature that his friends would find the com mittee assignments were not for them. Hence by Mr. Burdiek withdrawing, tho general opinion is that he got out when the irettinir was good.
