A grand jury indicted the Sentinel Printing Company of Indianapolis on charges tied to public work bids for 1907 issued duckets for superior court rooms 1 and 2 at specified rates and a reimbursement bill. W. SS. Fish was briefly detained by the sheriff before release while the case proceeds. The article notes the political climate and mentions a forthcoming campaign amid a congress unable to act on remedies.
