"NUFFSED."
The gentleman who looks after the sporting page announced yesterday that eighteen fights are scheduled for these parts within the next few weeks.
Make Cantwell and Ed Ikerman are to clash for ten rounds at 187 pounds at
East Chicago. Harry Forbes and "Terrible Terry" McGovern's brother, Phil, will face each other for ten rounds at Gary next week, and a few days later, Jimmy Clabby and "Knockout" Brown are to give and take for ten rounds in that dear old Hammond. Special trains bearing hundreds upon hundreds
of sweet-scented fight followers will invade the region. Wonder what next?
-9 SALOONMEN ON GRILL.
Sixty saloonmen in different parts of Lake county, who are charged
with disregarding the law, are in a tight box. Their day of reckoning is at hand.
Next Monday sixty remonstrances will be taken up before the Crown
Point board of commissioners' meeting and the Anti-Saloon League of In
diana will fight the granting of licenses to these men.
It is presumed that when a saloonman goes Into business, he knows
the law. Ignorance of it is no excuse for him to violate it. Fifty-three of
these remonstrances are against Gary saloonmen. They have killed the
loose that laid the golden egg..
The saloonkeeper who has been conducting an orderly place, has ob

has nothing to fear. His license will be granted by the county commis
sioners. .. It pays for a saloonman to be decent.

THE POTENCY OF THE TOWN MEETING.
Out of the old town meeting grew our representative form of govern
ment The citizens of the town assembled for the discussion of public questions. Arguments pro and con were heard and the will of the majority, as expressed by the vote, became the, law of the town. "When small towns became larger and it was no longer feasible to assemble all of the citizens in a single hall, the plan of holding several meetings was adopted. The citizens at each meeting took up the question under consideration, took a vote on it and finally selected a delegate to meet with the delegates
, from the other meetings, and, after further discussion, arrive at a final ver-' diet of the whole city on the matter under consideration. These facts showing the growth of representative government from the town meeting to the council meeting are given for the purpose of showing the Importance of fillowing a full and rree discussion of all matters of public interest. City government is not yet so highly specialized that the citizens of a community may sit idly by and let those, whom they have employed, run the affairs of the city without interference, it is still necessary to, exercise a mild supervision over actions of city officials and others. Reasoning from this viewpoint, it is important that a city have such organizations as the Hammond Business Men's association, the North Side Citizens' association and the Manufacturers' association. But the fact should also be borne In mind that the influence of these organizations will surely wane when it becomes apparent to the outsider, the common ordinary citizen, who is not affiliated with any of these organizations, that its conclusions were not based on a full and fair discussion of the question, but that it is possible for a group of interested citizens to so manipulate things that a verdict in their favor will result regardless of the merits of a question.

THE PLUCKY LITTLE CARRIER. Perhaps the little carrier boy who brings you your paper at the close of the day, never gets a second thought from you. He is entitled to It anyway. There are men of business affairs in Lake county today who once carried papers. They owe their present success in a large measure to the fact that they once carried newspapers. The boy who can't carry a newspaper route, or whose parents think him too nice and too good to carry newspapers, is lacking somewhere. A contemporary truthfully says: Probably every newspaper in " the country which employes its own carriers could point to a similar record If any attempt had been made to keep track of the carriers that have come and gone. It requires a boy of energy and grit to make an acceptable and successful carrier. It is no easy job and the boy that has not the requisite qualities does not stick to it long. On the contrary, the boy who faithfully delivers his papers in summer and In winter, in sunshine and in storm, on holidays and circus days and other days, is a boy with the right sort of stuff in him. Such a boy may be depended upon in his later years to fulfill a man's part In any field of action wherein he may see proper to engage for the struggle of life.
