THE EVENING REPUBLICAN,

Tennis Tournament Begun; First Games Played Saturday.

The senior Rensselaer tennis tournament. began Saturday when Harry English defeated Carl Eigelsbach in two straight sets, 6-2 and 6-1, although the score does not show it, both sets were hotly contested. Eigelsbach was on the defensive most of the time but he put up a good game considering this is his first year and that he was playing one of the top-notehers among local tennis players. English will probably finish well at the head in the tournament. A number of players have forfeited their games, some not wishing to play and others because they will be out of town. Below are the names and opponents of those in the junior and beginners’ tournaments. The time for these games should be arranged with Dr. Gwin. JUNIORS. Harold Halleck, Robert Loy. Carl Worland, Hans Braun. Paul Collins, Walter Randle. J. D. Roth, George Fate. Paul Beam, Leland Collins. Brook Moore, no opponent. BEGINNERS. Billy Grow, Adna Healey. John Kresler, Francis Turfler. Donald Sink, Harold Roth. Tommy Thompson, Jack Larsh.

Mrs. Earl Coy and mother, Mrs. Amanda Leach, left this mornnig for their home in Attica.

Robert Platt, a member of last year’s graduating class of the Rensselaer high school, went to Lafayette to enter a business college and complete a commercial course which he started in the high school here last year. He will take the banking course, including bookkeeping, shorthand and typewriting. A suitable camping place is desired for a troop of United States cavalry which will arrive here about noon Wednesday and camp over night. It is desirable to secure a place near a watering trough as a convenience in watering the horses. Preferably unfenced lots. Information should be given to George H. Healey at once. iSunday was the third fair day for this section of the state and some work was done in the fields and occasionally thrashing gangs were at work. Although we escaped rain here Saturday there was considerable rain at Lowell and Cedar Lake, sufficient at the latter place to bring the big republican picnic to a sudden close before the athletic events were finished.

Peter O'Connor, who has been visiting his brother, John O’Connor, for almost three months, left today for his home at Quincy, 111. John accompanied him to Hammond and Chicago, visiting the latter’s son and daughter a few hours in Hammond. Peter O’Connor was a U. S. sailor for twelve years, serving before, during and after the civil war. He spent some four years with U. S. cruisers on the coast of Africa when the United States was trying to break up the slave shipments to this country. The writer attended the Harrison Club picnic at Cedar Lake Saturday. The Harrison Club is the leading republ'can organization of Gary and is ardently behind the campaign of Mayor R. O. Johnson for governor. The picnic was a fine success. There were about l,goo present and a dollar chicken dinner was a big feature. Congressman James R. Bann, of Illinois, made the principal address. A number of athletic events were held and Attorney Will O. Thomas, formerly of Monticello but now of Hammond, surprised every one by winning the standing broad jump. After a number of young athletes had strained themselves to set a mark Thomas appeared from the crowd and went three inches farther than any of the others. He received ass safety razor outfit for his jump. State candidates were on hand in abundance but none were given an opportunity to speak, as Chairman McAleer said that if one spoke all should have a right to be heard and there was not enough time. James E. Watson and Arthur C. Robinson, candidates for the U. S. senate, were on hand, and Warren T. McCray and friends from Newton county, autoed 'up in the afternoon. A heavy rain came up in the afternoon and the picnic was abandoned before all the athletic events had been completed. Four hundred automobiles were parked on the grounds.

Reasons Why Republicans Should Nominate Warren McCray.

Five good men are seeking the republican nomination for governor. It seems early to discuss them in view of the fact that the election is not until the fall of 1916, but the primary law sets the first Monday in March as the time for holding the nominating primary and we must deicde during the intervening time upon the qualities of the men who are to be on our party ticket. The editor of The Republican has endeavored to learn the qualifications of the candidates and has decided that in Warren T. McCray, of Kentland, are the qualities desirable in both candidate and official. James E. Goodrich, of Winchester, is a man of ability and of clean moral life; he has ability and has been assigned to important and business tasks and has performed them with success and dignity; Quincy Myers, now of Indianapolis, has been a lawyer and jurist for many years and has the poise that would distinguish the office he seeks; C. A. Carlisle, of South Bend, is a man of excellent worth as a citizen and has the power to fill the governor’s office with distinction; R. O. Johnson, of Gary, the man whose ardent campaigning put the corrupt Tom Knotts administration out of business, and who has accomplished wonders in Gary, has the ardent support of the people of Lake county and they say he will make a great campaign and believe he will be nominated. Thus we have four of the five actice candidates. Any one of them will make Indiana a fine governor. It is for the voters to choose the one they consider the best and after a month’s consideration The Republican has decided that Warren T. McCray, of Kentland, is the man we should name to head our ticket. He has never been a politician, not that there is any disgrace in being one, for they are very necessary, but there is a prejudice against the politician who is such because he is a seeker for office. Warren McCray has been content to be a republican and to support the candidates of that party and to employ his time in his business, that of stockraiser, farmer and banker. He has been industrious, resourceful, progressive; has played an important part in his county and town and has built up a success that has given him world-wide fame. With this accomplishment he has become a student of conditions, an economist, a thinker, a man with ideas and his ideas and his method of applying them have made him a great success. He would enter the campaign with a record of unspotted citizenship, a man without a blemish, a business man who without ostentation has become great in his home town and great in the cattle business throughout the world. His speech delivered at Kentland on the occasion of the meeting held to apprise hijn of the desire of his fellow townsmen that he enter the race, proved him a scholarly man with all that is essential for the demands of the office of governor. We believe that Warren T. McCray will apply to the governor’s office the same business principles that he has applied to his stock and banking business and that untrammeled by obligations to politicians and uncontrolled by any interests he will i commend himself to voters as no other candidate can and will fulfill the hopes of all who are interested in the welfare of Indiana by an administration without tied hands. It is more than six months before the primary but The Republican desires that its readers learn of the qualities that Mr. McCray possesses and aid in the campaign for his nomination. They can help materially if they will write to friends all over Indiana and urge support of him. He will be at two disadvantages, first, lack of acquaintance, and second, lack of familiarity with political organization. But he will appeal to those who do not think second-handed and we hope to see Jasper county a unit for his nomination.

Bloomington Water Works Quarrel Settled Friday.

The public service commission was petitioned Friday by Mayor John G. Harris to send an engineer to Bloomington to draw up plans and specifications for a pipe line connecting the new and old waterworks system at Bloomington. These .specifications, with the approval of the commission, will be given to all firms who wish to bid on the work. This plan was decided on at a meeting Friday night between Mayor Harris, the members of the city council and a citizens' committee. This is the first time the city administration and a large number of ciizens, who have been objecting to the course the adinistration has been taking in regard to the construction of a pipe and power line, have been able to come to an understanding. The agreement reached is to let the public service commission have the specilcations drawn and then direct future steps.

Writes of Southland Which He Visited Last Week.

I have just returned from Scottsboro, Ala., where I have been looking at a telephone system and want to say a word through the columns of your paper to the people who have an idea that the south is a poor country. I have never been in a country so surprising in every way as northeastern Alabama. I went expecting to find poor sand knobs and long haired men, but instead found thousands of acres of corn out of the way of all danger and I am sure will yield from 30 to 60 bushels per acre; thousands of acres of cotton that will produce from a half to one and onehalf tons per acre; fruit of all kinds, and a fine a lot of people as I have ever found anywhere; educated and refined; sociable and generous to a fault. I rode all over the country K was given as good entertainment as I ever received anywhere in my life, and when I offered to Dav any bills they laughed at me and said: “That aint the way we do down here.” I spent almost a week down there at the ertreme cost of one dollar and that under protest.

As o prices of land, they are just where we were thirty years ago. Good land growing 50 bushels of corn can be bought for SSO. This is good farming land. Just as good land farmed by natives with 25 to 30 bushel can be bought for from sls to S3O per acre. The same lands here would Tiring from $75 to SIOO. The climate is mild, never a case of sunstroke or sleet known. Fine water and good roads. The people are beginning to open their eyes and in a few years the man who goes there now with a little money will in a few years be multiplying it by ten or twenty. I have been west, southwest and know much about it but give me the south five to one to live in, to invest in, and to form associations in. I am surely struck on Alabama. —A. L. Clark. Commissioner Welch, of Carpenter township, was over today. He reports having coifipleted thrashing and having an average of 32% bushels of wheat. only had 10 acres, however, but wishes the entire farm had been in wheat. He sold at $1 per bushel. The best yield he had heard of was in Newton county, near Goodland, where one farmer had an average wheat yield of 42 bushels.

In conclusion a collection and pledges were made for the movement. Dr. Stewart was accompanied here by Chas. F. Jackman, of Huntington. Mr. Jackman is the man who spoke here at the progressive banquet held at the armory last year. He is interested in the cause of temperance and will probably speak in the interest of the Flying Squadron. He is a member of the Methodist church at Huntington and reports that that that church suffered $15,000 damage by fire one day last week. A new pipe organ was being installed and the fire broke out in the rear of the organ.
