WHAT WOULD HAPPEN THEN.

No one newspaper la a community nor all the newspapers therein can

remedy evils that exist or reform them. That Is up to the people. .

A newspaper that has the real progress, the real welfare, the future of a

city at heart can. only point out these evils. There Its duty stops.

The business men, the taxpayers, the. home-bulldera and the home-lovers . of a city must then, IP THEY CARJ3 FOR THE PROGRESS, THE WELFARE

THB FUTURE OF THE CITY, GET BUSY. .

It la their city. In it are 'their homes, their Interests; In It their children

are born and brought up; In it they make their livelihood, live and die.

" The people make the blty. tt will be Just what they are, good, bad or

Indifferent. ,

If they al-e content with existing conditions; IF THEY ARE NOT STIR- ; RED BY FLAGRANT VIOLATIONS OF THE LAW and even appearance of

things that are not as they should, no one is to blame but them.

In the hands of the people is the remedy. "Why are you always stirring up trouble? Why don't you let things alone? What difference does it make

to you?" are the questions shot at newspapers.

Let us suppose for an instant that there were no newspapers, to watch the acts of officials, to keep track of crime and evil conditions, what would

happen?

J !

HOCH! Die grand Jury! THESE are thrice happy days for the squdgers." '.'" " -1 SOME men talk kindly but there is no- nutrition stuff in it. A 1 -MEXICO seems to have effectually sloughed Zelaya somewhere. 4 . THERE Is some treacherous political ice that is pretty unsafe." COLD storage eggs are getting into society like some other questionable things. - THE trustworthy goosebone is still trying to make good after 'Its awful fiasco..- . ' CENSUS enumerator jobs are going begging.' The walking Is a little bad just now. ALL hail the grand jury! The little pet grand Jury that is going to do things, "tis rumored. DOCTOR Is trying to check the divorce evil. Pshaw, why check it? What would the lawyers do? . aV CERTAIN Gary paper thinkB Bowser has a clear field for the senatorship. This is news, great news. ' LEGLESS man who was arrested for kicking another man was discharged. Case hadn't a leg to stand on. ' THERE ought to be a penal statute providing for the punishment of the man who permits snow on his sidewalk. REPORTED that Johnson's place in Gary is going to be raided was started yesterday. Oh, please don't make us laugh. - CRUMPACKER wants a meat probe. We trust our Ed. is not being compelled to eat chuck in that dear old Washington.

A BUSINESS man who says he never got any good out of advertising sets a newspaper on edge like a

Michigan." The fair-minded members of the St. Andrews society who have determined to hear from the governor a report ot his opinion of the city after a personal observation of the city in question, have determined to take him about the place and show him the points of interest in what they believe is the grandest little city in the country. With all political Bentiment eliminated they now have the privilege of hearing first hand, after ample opportunity 'to ascertain the facts Just what the chief executive thinks of the steel city. That alone is worth far more than he price of admission. If certain of those present would avoid any unpleasantness on this ocassion, it would be well that the committee which will have the governor in tow, from 11:00 o'clock A. M., until the same time P. M., would either carefully avoid the following designated places or see that the word is passed out to see that operations cease on at least this momentous occasion: 1. A stretch of territory between the Michigan Central street and the Pennsylvania on Madison street. 2. Several upstairs rooms over saloons on the south side. 3. Several rooms In basements under cigar stores. 4. Three hotels In this city almost any time after the local theatres are closed. 5. The emporiums of Dave Johnson and Charles Jackson. If visited the party should be provided with oxygen helments.

6. 100 "speak easy" establishments. How to carefully avoid these places the committee could refer to A. C. Mathews of Plymouth Indiana for

pointers.

VICE President Sherman says the

insurgents are very rude. Sunny Jim had better be keerful or he'll get his whiskers pulled.

OH THIS IS THELAST BITTER CUP. The popularity of Gov. Thomas R. Marshall is a bugaboo to the republi

can machine politicians in Indiana. The probability that he will be the

democratic nominee for president In 1912 scares them Into the old fashioned nightmares, and It seems the word has gone out that opposition to the gover

nor must be discovered In the democratic ranks to head off the Marshall

movement. The republicans have discovered a certain Lawrence Becker up at Hammond, who Is against Marshall, and they are playing him up in terrific

fashion as evidence that the democrats of the state are not going to be a unit for the governor two years hence. We have not the pleasure of knowing who

Mr. Becker Is, but if the republicans are anxious to find anti-Marshall mater

ial we would respectfully suggest that a search of the caves of Hpoppole township, which is somewhere In the wolds of Brown county, contains at

least two men, who were formerly moonshiners, or hunted coons during Illegal hours, and who may be opposed to Marshall. Hunt them up, gentlemen,

and exhibit them with Mr. Becker as rare specimens. Fort Wayne Journal-Gazette.

; THE COMING GRAND JURY.

To say anything about a grand Jury is a delicate topic. There is about the two wqrds themselves an air of awe and of secrecy to the man who has nothing to fear from such a tribunal, but to the e,vil-doer they have a terror that touches his inmost soul no matter how case-hardened or street car

broke he Is.

The grand jury meets In Crown Point next Monday to take up matters

on which It will be Instructed by the court It is declared that among these matters is one of much moment to the alleged Gary blind pig keepers, tothe

purveyors of liquor in places proscribed by the statutes.

The personnel of the inquisitorial body composes leading Lake County taxpayers. They are fearless. There is much to be done. ' The eyes of Lake

County are on the grand Jury and on the men who conduct Its sessions. ' We shall see what we shall see. ' -

WE NOTE that a man is after a divorce because his wife called him a

The complainant might De canea mucn wors3 names than a shrimp. For

said to be nothing more aggravating in the calendar.

WORK OF THE DAY INCONGRESS (Washington, D. C, Jan. 20, 1910.) Houne. Ignoring the protests of the democratic members the republican majority in the house today ratified their caucus nominees for the Ballinger Investigating committee, displacing Representative Ralnejf of Illinois, one of the democratic selections, and naming in his stead Representative Lloyd of Missouri, who indicated his unwillingness to serve on the committee. Consideration of the urgent deficiency appropriation bill was resumed, but was laid aside until tomorrow, after three hours' debate. Senate.

UP AND DOWN IN I-N-D-I-A-N-A

WHEN A WOMAN .WILLS. Did you ever try to make a woman

do something she was determined not

to do?

Did you succeed ? Miss Martha Marthlam of San Fran

cisco did not want an electric light pole In front of her home.

The company did want it. And this, is how Martha, aided by

a dozen pairs of stockings and a darn

ing needle, plus a woman's wit, got the better of the company.

The big corporation had sent men to

dig a bole in front of Miss Marthiam's

house, bat , when a dozen employees

came the next day they discovered the lady seated In a rocking chair placed

directly over the hole. She was busy

darning stockings.

The foreman politely asked her to

move.

Miss Martha did not budge. The foreman tried threats in vain.

The lady darned stockings, and after

awhile a crowd gathered. The crowd jeered tne foreman and his gang and

cheered for the plucky little woman.

There was a glint ,ln her eye that kept

hands off her rocking chair.

Theu the foreman telephoned to the

police.

Three bluecoats blustered up, but the bluster did not move the slight wo

man who held the fort. Finally they

went away, saying there was no city ordinance that permitted the woman's

arrest. And there Martha sat And there the gang waited.

Officers of the company came to rea

son it out Miss Marthlam kept on darning (It takes a. long time to darn

a dozen stockings) until the 5 o'clock

whistle blew. Then the street gang,

union men. left the battlefield in full

retreat

That evening Miss Marthlam had the hole filled ud and the- grass re

placed, and, though weeks have passed,

the pole has not been planted.

"When a woman wills she will, and

when she won't she won't"

Maybe the feminine diplomacy comes as a heritage from the woman of the

stone age, who had nothing bat her

wit to interpose against the club of

the primitive man. Anyway The mere man who tries to beat

woman at her own game will get left.

There may be exceptions.

A few women of today, a reversion to type, will allow a man to bully and

beat them and admire him for It, but

they are scarce and growing scarcer.
