the purchase "at or after" twenty years, one must earnestly inquire whether the ordinance, as it stands, does not aim to give the company a franchise in perpetuity. Certainly the wording should be so changed as to show that the rights given by the ordinance do not extend beyond a certain definite term. Another peculiarity of the ordinance is that it bestows upon the city the rights cf a stockholder in tne matter of examining the company s records and books of account. The city wants absolute rights in this respect. The rates offered to subscribers require detailed study before their merits or demerits can be told. It may lvj said in the company's favor at least that it offers the city exceptional benefits in agreeing to place telephone wires un

der ground throughout trie district tending from Howard avenue on north to 69th street on the south, as far west as 40th avenue.

CRU M PACKER'S VI CT OR Y.

The labor conference between Chicago and Hammond representatives of the Associated Building Trades, which la to take place in Hammond next Tuesday, ia likely to be decisive and far-reaching in its oonsequences. The outcome of this may be the means of establishing the Calumet region as one of the most formidable strongholds of organlzetd labor, or if Its object fails, the region may represent a tremendous breach in the forces of this powerful element. If Gary observes the open shop rules, it will indeed, be a sad blow to unionism, not only here, but through

out the country at large; lor open

shop in as gigantic, an enterprise as that represented by the interests in the

new steel town, means much. While Hammond has been half

hearted in the interests at stake, Chi

cago organized labor has been alive to

the significance of the situation. While

the territory embraced by Gary comes

under the jurisdiction of the local

labor body Martin B. Madden, presi

dent of the Associated Building Trades

of Chicago, recognizes the fact that Chicago's labor interests were men

aced as seriously as wore those of the

Calumet region immediately affected.

It was for this reason that he d

cided to have a finger in the pie and to

this end arranged for Tuesday's meet

ing. In the meantime, while strikes are being declared among their friends and co-laborers at South Chicago and

boycotts are being threatened by out

siders on account of the Gary situation,

the workmen directly involved and em ployed at the steel town itself, are re

ported as pursuing the even tenor of

their way, unmindful, apparently, of the turmoil and agitation and content

to let matters adjust themselves.

One of the most satisfactory features of the recent election, as viewed by re

publicans, was the vote given Judge Crumpacker, republican candidate for re-electon to the house of representatives. The Tenth district candidate was made a special target. President Gompers of the American Federation of Labor was brought to Lafayette in opposition to him. Mr. Gompers advised organized labor to vote against the district's representative. Coincident with the fact that Kirby Risk is a member of the state committee is the fact that Mr. Gompers made no other speech in the state, and that he closed his appeal here with a declaration in favor of Judge Darroch, the democratic

candidate. George Rippling Durgan thrilled the people nightly, telling them

what a wicked man Crumpacker was. Despite the appeal of Gompers and the

eloquence of Durgan Judge Crum

packer did very well, thank you. The

republican candidate for secretary of

stite carried lippecanoe county by

1,189. Representative Crumpacker's plurality was S91. This would indi

cate that all forces and causes resulted

in Judge Crumpacker's plurality being

reduced by 295. That is a good show

ing in face of the fight that was made.

It must be remembered that the vote this year was light, the vote of no

andidate measuring up to the vote of

two years ago. We should also ru-

memoer that Judge Crumpacker s name

appeared on the county ballot, which

was the ticket scratched. In other

words, Judge Crumpacker was on the

firing line. Aside from those who

scraicneu nis name no sunerea oecaust

some failed to indicate a choice for

representative. He also lost not a few by ballots being thrown out. The vote

given Judge (JrumpacRer cannot be ac

cepted in any other light than a vote of confidence in him a vote of ap-

roval for his part in the remedial leg

islation of the last congress. The peo

pie of the Tenth district have returned to congress a staunch friend of President Roosevelt one who can be de

pended upon to safeguard their inter

ests. Ana in aoing so they have re

buked campaign methods which sanc

tion the assassination of character and

the misrepresentation of facts. Lafav

As a result of these factors and the disturbing condition of the money market generally, stocks showed a very weak undertone and declines of from one to three point3 were the order of the day.

THE TELEPHONE SITUATION.

Any legislation that affects the tele

phone situation in Chicago affects the

telephone situation in Hammond as Hammond is a part of that system.

Therefore the following editorial from the Chicago Daily News is of local

interest: In submitting to mittee its draft of an extension of its

cago Telephone company may have

aimed at that quality of benevolence

which is best styled paternal. It x

tend to the city a kind and caressing hand to point out precisely how the

latter shall go about arriving at mu

nicipal ownership of telephones. For

it presciibes in its ordinance that "at or

after' the expiration of twenty years

which is the term of the franchise ask

ed for, the city may purchase for sub

sequent municipal operation the plant

of the company in Chicago. But before

this can be done the council on two occasions, in two successive municipal vears, must express itself by a two-

thirds vote in favor of making the pur

chase, and the mayor on both occa

sions must approve the project. In other words, one-thiid of the aldermen, or the mayor alone, in either of two

municipal years, can absolutely block the plan. F.ut even this is not all. The

proposition must be submitted to a ref

erendum and approved by three-fifths

of those "voting at the election not merely three-fifths of those voting on

the proposition.

All of which seems rather impertinent. When Chicago gets ready to

purchase a telephone plant it will make

the decision in its own way. Put in

the meantime it will require the right to purchase the plant on, say a year's

notice, or to have the purchase made by a new licensee on suitable terms. Including a bonus sufficiently large to give the company In the field proper protection from persons desiring to ust it for mere selfish gain. As for

a nicago woman, wno nas sued a

street railroad company for $25,000

damages, on account of injuries re

ceived In an accident, bases her claim

partly on the fact that she was incapacitated for several months, during

which she had to drink coffee made by

her husband. 1 he inference, if not the

direct allegation, was that coffee mad

by herself was a solace and a comfort

to her, while that made by her husband

was noi oniy negatively unnt, out posi

tively baa to the extent of justifying a

e nrtve ions inougnt tnat no man

that many emergencies may arise re

the family. It is also too nlain for ar

gument that when a woman is tempo

rarily disabled and confined to her

ee? Is the poorest coffee made by a

woman better than the best made by a man? In short, is it not a case for the application of the. time-honored adage

that "The proof of the pudding is in the eating"? Without regard to the im

putation which the Chicago woman puts

have no right to interfere, we think she goes too far in asking the court virtually to decide that man is incapacitated by his sex from making coffee fit for a woman to drink. Indianapolis Star.

CHICAGO LETTER.

Northern Pacific is being bought by

insiders on the rumor that a cash divi

dend of twenty-five per cent, will be de

clared this month.

A recent magazine article deals with statistics on the reading habit in various sec tions of the country. The writer

wastes much valuable time and mathematics dividing the number of books

issued by the circulating libraries in

each state by the total population of

that state, and, without making allow

ance lor the widely varying facilities

for the distribution of books, arrives at the conclusion that New England

leads, with California second and New

York third.

It is a natural consequence of the

prevalence of book worship in America

that time should be given to computing

such statistics, and that the press in commenting on them should consider

the results complimentary to New Eng

land and California.

When some more practical and phil

anthropic statistician computes the

comparative quality of the reading

matter consumed we may come to feel

that a minimum of ouantitv is the

greatest compliment. Then even the

blindest devotees of the indiscriminate

reading habit will realize that, admir

able as they are in most ways, there is

a dangerous phase to the oublic li

braries of today.

hen the children who entered the

freshman class of Duluth's high school

tnis tall reported on the books read during vacation more than half of them

had read from twenty-five to seventy

five books, ranging from Mary Jane Holmes to her modern prototype. The

evil results of such overworking of

mental digestion without nutritive re

turns are too apparent to need com

ment, lne lathers and mothers of

these children are the average Ameri

can citizens who have made the usual

fetish of books, and they will point

with pride to the fact that their off

spring are so fond of reading," with

the prevalent idea that anything that

is a book is good.

The juvenile department of libraries

solves the problem of books for small

er children quite satisfactorily. Rut at

the age when most susceptible to ficti

tious uieais, Doys ana gins outgrow the juvenile department and we find them browsing without restraint in the

adult pasture, and feeding on a highly

spiced diet of modern problem fiction

and the best sellers.

It is time the American parent awoke

to the fact that only a genius or an

angc-i can De saieiy turned loose in a

library, and that a pure-food investiga

tion of the mentN diet of our boys and

iris would reveal as many poisonous

compounds ana misiaoeiea packages as

ever the packing houses furnished for

our stomachs.

At an evening gathering in South Bend the other night a young woman

sprang a new one when playing char

ades. The usual worked-out problems had been easily solved when this girl

brought on two little fox terriers.

Procuring a long sausage, she put one end in one dog's mouth and then

made the other dog chew on the other end. While thev were eating she said:

"That represents a telephone number,

Various guesses were hazarded, but the problem was at last given up; and the young woman explained:"Two-eight-one."

Chicago. Nov. 1 2. WHEAT Early trade was at little higher prices than Saturday but after the buying pressure was taken off the market, it lapsed into dullness with a dragging, lower tendency.

Cas'.i wheat in the sample market was off a cent a bushel, in addition to this northwestern traders were liberal sellers of the May option. It is said considerable portion of this selling is for short account. The cash demand both for home and foreign consumption is exceedingly slack. The market closed steady with a slight decline' for the day. CORN" Rearish influences of one kind and another had a weakening tendency in this cereal. The government crop report issued Saturday after the close of the market gave the crop raised as the largest in the historv of

the country. Cash corn in the sample market was quoted a shade lower. Exporters are practically out of the market for the r.e werup. The market closed weak with a slight decline for the day. OATS Firm early, but later when the balance of the grain markets showed a weakening tendency it followed them. Trade net large and more ?r

There is so much pleasure in publishing a newspaper that some editors are refusing money as a reward for their services. It takes wind to run a newspaper. It takes gall to run a newsper. It takes scintilating, acrobatic imagination and a dozen white shirts and railroad passes to run a newspaper office. But money heavens to Betsy and six hands round, who ever needer money to run a newspaper office? Kind words are the medium of exchange that do business for the editor kind words and social tickets. Don't worry about the editor. He has a charter from the state to act as doormat for the community. He'll get the paper out somehow and stand up for you when you run for office and He about your pigeon

footed daughter's wedding and blow about your big footed boys when they

get a 1 a week job and weep over your shriveled soul when it is released from your grasping body and smile at your wife's second marriage.

Winter will soon be here and hus

bands who would make things easy for themselves should start at once to train their wives so that they may do

most of the arduous and cold tasks which fall to husbands .when the mer

cury is bumping its head against the button of the tremometer. The Lake County Times desires to be of assistance to much abused hubbies, and has

compiled the following suggestions for

their guidance.

1. Begin teaching your wife how to split wood, putting special emphasis on

preparing kindling.

2. Get in the habit or feeling very tough at about 5 a. m.. practice yawn

ing until you can do it naturally, and

your wife will get up first.
