This, fby means of a placard wherein he sets forth that Mr. Grant is a mean man, or words to that effect, and that he, Fred, wishes him the -worst .misfortune dossiaie lo Detail mm. namciv tn Bret n namely, to get a uvoc vi uii own . meaicine, in nis own ;Jail, with his own Jail diet" wherewith fca la wont to tantalize' the eplcurian i palates of prisoners so unfortunate as to be placod at his mercy in Crown !nThl card is among the literature he la In the habit of springing upon the uUlblo and unsuH'-ble" whom he-picks for victims of-hU mendicancy when ha pretends to bo deaf and dumb.

The prisoner also pretends to "be an expert stenographer. He makes small

marks upon a sheet of paper, the purpose of which is to prove that he has I been a reporter on the metropolitan pa- j ' pers until ill health overtook him. The - fact that not one newspaper reporter ' in five hundred knows shorthand does not seem to appeal to him as an argument 'why his story should not be believed. Chief MrCormack asked him i to take a letter at his dictation, but the prisoner explained that he was "too. nervous.' ' it is in order to give him a chance to recuperate his shaken nerves that he has . been given a term of fifteen days 'In' the county Jail.

I will let his own conscience tell him whether he did right or wrong, whether hff was honest or dishonest, false or truthful, sincere or insincere in the matter. "A So-Called Newspaper." . "The untruthfulness of some of his charges, which charges were made pub-i lie through the executive -department; of the state of Indiana. gaveVthe Jlamj mnnd Daily, Xewja, a so-called (newspa per whose makeup I shall ajs6,. retrain from going Into, the opportunity of an attempt to discredit the officials of Lake county and especially tlfte sheriff, Thomas Grant. To say that Its attack upon the sheriff was one of the black1 est libels ever printed would be put l tln.sr it extremely mild Indeed. I I "Your informant has never made any . 'complaint at this office, under which jurisdiction the territory in question is, j neither has he informed this office of , any law violations in thls, territory, ; neither has he expressed any desire to ! prosecute anyone, neither has he sent ) anyone else to do so. I also know that he has never informed the sheriff s of ' flee or made any complaint there. "This office has at all times prosecuted all cases where complaints have j been made and affidavits signed, and (shall continue to do so:.as long as i charged with that duty. !Asks Govenidr to Remember. j ( "Now a. few" words as to law enforce- ', ! ment generally in. the state of Indiana. ' In this connection I -wish to call to your j mind an occasion.- It was on the evening of the 5th day of June, 1907, at ; the graduating exercises of the' law I department of a certain university In ! -the- state- of -Indiana.-- A- noted prac-j tk'ing attorney at law, from-Columbia UCUy.. Indiana delivered, the, annual ad-j dress to the graduating class, and while sitting there ' that :: evening; "a' member of that clas, listening to that splendid address,: the text jot ,, which was 'Whatsis Law?'. J Tieard, the-speak-er say, 'Even thought it be written: in the statute books, npthlng Is law un less it is backed up-;by the sentiment of the people of the community.' Other Law Violations. , ."The-author -of that doctrine as expressed on. that occasion is now the chief rcxeeutlve of the state of Indiana, And with that statement in mind, I can understand why liquor law 1 violations, gambling, prize" fighting and prdstitution exists tn the city , of Indianapolis,; the seat of government of - the state, and within the shadows, of the dome of the statehouse.' I. can understand why liquor law violations and gambling exists at , West Baden and French Lick. I can understand -why gambling, , pool selling and bookmaking flourishes on the Indiana shores of the Ohio river. I can understand why liquor law violations and gambling exists in Michigan pity, within the shadows , of the state penitentiary.. I can understand why lirjuor law violations, graft and other law violations exist in the magic city of Gary,, and I can ' also understand why there are-law violations in Lake county, and , with an average amount of optimism and hope at my command. ryet I tantiot. believe that we shall ever -ee the day when all this shall cease to exist, but I do believe that the officials of Lake county are, doing their bst to enforce the laws of the state under the circumstances, and if they fail in their efTorts ' it is no doubt, for the same reason that the officials of other counties . fail, namely, ' because certain so-called laws that are being violated are not backed up by public sentiment.

' "When do you expect them?" Mr. Hodges was asked. , ''Just as soon as one of the counclimen Is convicted,'' he replied.

There tvlll.be nothing more done in the graft casos here until the matter conies up before the judge at Crown Point, and after that we will keep on quietly at work until the day of the' trial. "I am satisfied." concluded Mr. lodges, "that we have the goods on the entire bunch and that there will be a. cleaning up in Gary when the courts have finished their work." (Father Faints--With- Joy?
