Indiana miners seek legislature to oust inspector Tislow
Clay county miners gather signatures across coal counties to present grievances against mine-inspector Tislow, whom Gov. Hovey deems incompetent. They want his reappointment blocked and demand reforms, alongside a note of a prior, little-noticed governor's response. The item also reports Dr. A F Henry's claimed cure for consumption using inhaled fumes from a germicide solution.

Indiana Senate Fight Over Harrison Gresham Come Election Control
Indiana gossip notes a fast and furious Harrison Gresham clash for party control in the Indiana legislature. Senator Turpie denounces a Force Bill to centralize elections under federal appointees, while factions favor Fairbanks or Studebaker for U S senator and governor. Democratic foes hope Harrisonites weaken Republicans to entrench reforms, with school fund apportionment and census recounts on the agenda.
