WILL MAKEHM LEADER Congressman E. D. Crumrjacker Big Man of Indiana Now.
The election of Congressman Edgar D. Crumpacker from the Tenth district in the face of the defeat of such men as Congressman Overstreet and Charley Landies will make him the leader of the Indiana delegation to congress. Fortunately Congressman Crumpacker, although accompanied by,-eleven democrats and one other republican, will go to a friendly house of representatives. The Indiana representatives who are all new-comers and democrats may expect but little from the republican congress and Crumpacker will get much. It fact It is expected that Congressman Crumpacker will get everything he asks for and he is in a position to ask for much. The news comes from Iowa that Representative Hepburn has been defeated. This means that the democrats have defeated the chairman of the ways and means committee. As Representative Crumpacker is not a member of this committee it Is pos sible that he may become its chair man. Unusually the chairmanship goes to the ranking member, but it is hard to tell how many of the members on this committee have been defeated and it is possible that Crumpacker may be Its chairman. At any rate it is expected that the next time congress appropriates mon ey for harbor improvements Lake coun ty will be properly remembered and this district will ge more in the way of harbor legislation than any other district in Indiana.

BELL AFTER DEPUTYSHIP
Hammond Man's CandidacyIs Made Known Today. Now that Tom Grant has been elected sheriff of Lake county the question of who will be Mr. Grant's choice for the deputy sheriffship. In Hammond, Ben L. P. Bell seems to be the man who is meeting with favorable mention among the republican leaders and while it Is understood that Mr. Grant refused to make any pledges or, ante-election promises it Is understood that Mr. Grant is very friendly to Mr. Bell's candidacy. Just when the appointment Is to be made it is not known, but Mr. Bell has many friends who are working for him. There is no doubt but that he would make an ideal officer and on account of the splendid race that Mr. Grant made in Hammond, it is quite probable that the de'putyship will come here. MB. TAGGART IS HAPPY (By Thoman Tasgart.) IndianapoSis, Nov. 5. "There are two elements in the situation that are chiefly responsible for the sweeping democratic victor'." said Mr. Taggart. "One of these was the splendid organ ization presided over by State Chairman Stokes Jackson. The other was the unpopularity and mal-administra tion of Governor Hanly. The democrats had the advantage, too, of a splendid state ticket, made up of men who owed allegiance to no individual or Individuals, but to the democratic party only." Mr. Taggart was the recipient of many verbal bouquets yesterday. A firm at Newcastle that raises American beauty roses called him up over the telephone to ask permission to name a new rose in his honor. The firm explained that the rose is a brilliant red. Mr. Taggart cheerfully gave his consent. Another admirer named John Gibbs, living in this city, begged leave to present him a rooster, which, he said, is a very likely bird and democratic from the tip of its comb to the farthest extension of its tail feathers. Mr. Taggart told him to bring the rooster around to the Denison hotel tomorrow morning. Little encomiums like these kept coming to Mr. Taggart all of yesterday. It was a day of easy honors. ALICE SLINGSBY HURT Thirteen-Year-Old Daughter of John Slingsby Falls From Porch. Alice Slingsby, the 13-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John W. Slingsby of 213 Douglas avenue, West Hammond, while visiting her sister, Mrs. Joseph Mager at 247 Oakly, this morning, fell over a second-story porch railing. She dropped nearly 18 feet and was found unconscious on the ground by her sister and Mrs. A. S. Hunt. The little girl narrowly missed the cement sidewalk, which probably saved her life. She recovered consciousness after a little while and was able to walk home In company with her sister.
