Attorney Jesse E. Wilson Will Locate in Hammond.

Jesse E. Wilson, who until the 4th of March was an assistant secretary of the U. S. Department of the Interior, has decided to locate in Hammond and went there Tuesday to reht a house, having shipped his household goods to that city Monday. The extensive and growing court business there and the opportunity of employment in many of the £ood paying cases offered a big inducement and after investigation Mr. Wilson decided that it was a first-class location for him. He has rented a house on Indiana avenue and has investigated the office proposition and will locate near the court house, although he has not determined positively on a location. He will engage in practice by himself, opening up a new office. Lake county has always been very friendly to Mr. Wilson and it was that county’s vote that sent him to the legislature some seven or eight years ago. His wide experience since he has been in Washington, added to the fine start he had here in practice, will be a splendid recommendation to Hammond people who wish to consult an attorney and his growth in practice will doubtless be very rapid. It is probable that Mr. Wilson will take an active hand in politics and in this he will surround himself with many friends who will recognize in him the elements of fairness and honesty that havb contributed so materially to his success. We expect Jesse E. Wilson to grow rapidly in Hammond and recommend him to the people there as a leader in clean legal practice and good government.
