THE CASE OF "LITTLE JOHNNY."

The verdict of the Crown Point jury in the case of the State of Indiana vs. Peter Boaslch is significant. It should have a salutory effort on other

police officers who exceed their authority and over estimate their importance.

The Boasich assault, in which the Gary. police officer entered the Victoria poor old Hammond council. Wlien it

hotel and delibately assaulted Harry Guipe, a Gary attorney, is typical of the

attitude of the Gary city administration, personified by Thomas E. Knotts, a

year ago. j

Knotts has always been a believer in the use of orute force. It was he

wno tolerated tne tnira degree metnods tnat were used In tbe Gary jail. It

Is he who is charged with the intimidation of voters at the polls. It Is Knotts

who together with "Dog Face Charley", is charged with a conspiracy to mur

der Sheriff Thomas Grant.

It Is therefore not surprising that an ignorant Montenegran like "Little Johnny" should have taken the cue from his superior and after having had a quarrel with Harry Guipe, should have committeed such a violent assault

upon him. He was merely exemplifying the spirit of the Knotts administra

tion. Boasich got just what he deserved, and if this is an indication of the

temper of Northern Indiana juries, the reign of terror that has been a feature

of all elections in Gary is a thing of the past.

WELCOMING POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS.

According to the special dispatch to The Daily News the opening of a

postal savings bank at the new steel city of Gary, Ind., yesterday found a

long line of depositors waiting to put in their money.

Those in line were mainly wage workers of foreign birth, accustomed

to using the postal savings institutions in their native lands. Their un

familiarity with private banks had caused them since their arrival in the United States to send their money abroad for safekeeping, or to force its

care upon the government through the purchase of postofflce money orders

payable to themselves. The presence in Gary of so large a number of foreign born workmen led Postmaster-General Hitchcock to select that city as a particularly suitable place for opening one of the first of the postal savings banks. Regard for the welfare of the large number of foreign born wage workers in this country was one of the reasons urged in support of the postal savings bank law. It is gratifying to find that the new government saving Institutions are warmly welcomed and used to advantage by those for whom they were specially intended. The law providing for the establishment of the postal savings bank system was passed by congres and approved by the president of last year. As yet,, however, there is scarcely more than one depositary in operation in

each state. That is to Bay, the advantages of the new system are now with

in the reach of only a small proportion of the population. The federal au

thorities should use all possible diligence in opening many more banks.
