LEE 1I0W fAY HAVEL0VE FEAST Taggart Democrats Are Pretty Lively at the N Capital. TIMES BlRE.tr, AT-STATE CAPITA Ij. Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 16. State Chairman Edwin Lee says he will probably decide within a short time whether he will call a republican love feast the coming winter. He says the Rushvllle meeting was not a real love feat, and that he wants to consult with some of the party leaders over the state before ho make up his mind whether he should call a real love feast QUININE DOESN'T CURE BAD COLDS You will . distinctly feel your cold breaking and all the Grippe symptoms leaving after, taking the very first dose. It is a positive fact that Pape's Cold Compound, taken every two hours, until three fconsecutlve doses are taken, will end the Grippe and break up the most severe cold, either in the head, chest, back, stomach or limbs. it promptly relieves the most miserable ' headache, dullness, head and nose suited -up, feverishness, sneezing, rore throat, running of the nose, mucous catarrhal discharges, soreness, stiffness and rheumatic twinges. Pape's Cold Compound is the result of three years'-research at a cost of more than fifty thousand dollars and contains no quinine, which we have conclusively demonstrated is not effective in the treatment of colds or grippe. . , Take' this harmless compound as directed, with' the knowledge that there is no -othtr medicine, made anywhere else in' the world, which will cure your cold or end grippe misery as promptly and without any other assistance or bad after-effects -as a & cent package of Pape's Cold Compound, which any druggist in the world 'can supply. 1 Mil ww-' ONEY can be borrowed, at the Lowest Rate, in less time and 'with less trouble without publicity, at our office than at any place in the 2ity. . .'I t- I THIS MEANS simply what it says, and If 70a have or have not had experience along this line - 1 WE ARE READY to back up our statements.

or not. He said he was rather inclined to believe that it would be advistable to hold one. but that he would not decide or a while. The Taggart Democrats have been busy here within the last two or threi days. Senator Shlvely . was here, and so was Samuel M. llalston. Dale J. Crlttenberger of Anderson; George Keebe, of Anderson; Crawford Fairbanks, of Terre Haute, an l a number of others of fhe strong followers of Taggart. They all met here last Friday afternoon and night, and some of them were still here on Saturday. Crawford Fairbanks and Senator Shlvely took "lunch and dinner together, and then held a long conference, ad took an automobile ride. They talked politics from start to finish. Crlttenberger has been talked of as the Taggart choice for state chairman, and It need not surprise anyone to sec him 'land the place. But it lias also been said that the Taggart crowd had picked on him as the nominee for audi tor of state in acse they succeed in nominating W. H. O'Brien for Governor, which is said to be their plan. A good many of the politicians are expecting the Taggart crowd to dump Ralston at the psyschologlcal moment and go to O'Brien, although Ralston's friends say that their man is so far in the lead now that it will not do any good for Taggart to-try-to double cross him. ' The Taggart fellows who were in tho city Friday and Saturday discussed politics from all angles, and it is said tha,t they set up some pins. Taggart himself was not here, but Crawford Fairbanks was present, and that meant the same tiling. RURAL ROUTES MUST BE SERVED Postoffice Department Becomes More "Exacting With Carriers,, The postoffice department is becom ing more stringent in requiring that all rural routes be served entirely. Here tofore during winter storms and the rainy season. the carriers would not al ways make the entire route each day and were allowed full pay, if they covered most of the routes after all reason able attempts. But now the department will make a reduction In the carrier's pay upon a partial failure. When the partial failure is due to the carrier's equipment or due to his fail ure; in stormy weather or in high water or bad roads, to use every endeavor, to serve his route-by traveling every pos sible road: whenever- the failure is due to lack of interest in the service or mis conduct on part of the carrier, sickness or any reason of a personal nature tn the carrier. " Upon reaching an obstructed point he should make su-h deviation from the official line of travel as to avoid it. If this is impossible he must return im mediately to the postofHc arid start out in the opposite direction.: When after leaving thef postofllce he finds he cannot reach his route he must take some other road though covered by another carrier, and endeavor to serve the patrons. They excuse that the roads are slippery or . too hard to travel will not be considered, as each carrier must be prepared to serve his -route under all conditions of weather and the roads. MILLER TO GET r NEW INDUSTRIES f Continued from Page l. avenue .and on the south bank of the Grand Calumet has been leased byr a Chicago concern. Here it is said that a small shipyards are to be bifijt. : The mouth of the Grand Calumet is said to be one of the finest harbors on the great lakes, and although sandchoked at this time but little dredging would be required to make the entrance navigable. This fact is said to have attracted the ship building concern, which has ben looking for a location for some time. Storage Yards Mean Much. .

FAVORABLE ASPECT OF WEEK'S RAILROAD
A more favorable aspect of the railroad busines has been furnished by the car departments. The mills, in fact, report a considerable improvement in the demand for plates for the car builders, resulting from recent orders for equipment placed by some of the roads. In addition to. those already placed there are ' rumors of others to come, which wil help the situation. The Missouri Pacific, among recent purchases by the railroads, has bought cars, anu is eipeciea to lane morey x ne .ew iotk central nas tiKen 1,000, and is in ( the market" for 2,000 additional. Another inquiry, is being prepared by the Pennsylvania, and ' the Baltimore and Ohio is figuring on 5,000 to 6,000 cars. The contract for forty locomotives for. the New York Central furnishes a slight break in the almost uniform dullness which has prevailed li. that line of equipment. Orders for Gary Mills.

BUSINESS quiring for 50.000 tons of rails, deliv eries to begin in the spring of 1912, but an obstacle against their being placed In this country is held out by the duty. Among recent small tonnages tte Cheasapeake and ' Ohio has placed at Gary 4,000 tons of rails. Tn the local structural market no really important tonnages have been placed.' In the East the largest pending contract is. that of the Madison Square Buildng, which will require about 2Q -000 tons. The largest place in tho western district this week goes to the American Bridge ; Company, calling for 752 tons, for the Wabash Railroad for a bridge over the Illinois River at Valley City, 111. The Wabash will build a freighthouse and office building at Fort Wayne, Ind., of re-enforced concrete, requiring 132 tons of steel. Another railroad which has contracted this week for structural steel is the Chicago. Milwaukee and St. Paul, whcii has given 520 tons of bridge material; to the. Milwaukee 'Bridge company. disposed in the high cost lines. Shipments of general merchandise-indicates satisfactory, sales in wholesale branches, especially dry goods, footwear, men's furnishings,. cloaks and suits, and knit wear. Road and mall orders reached a satisfactory aggregate ' for . both immediateAnd v distant forwardings, and the demand for spring deliveries shows favorable . comparison .. with 1 this . time last year, lower quotations ' for cotton fabrics inducing more liberal selections. Manufacturing Shorts Small - Change. "Manufacturing and the principal lines of heavy production are. without notable., change, but , easier terms brought out more umerous moderate demands for furnace and rolling mill outputs, and the situation was . sentimentally improved by various substantial contracts for cars and other equipment. Fair tonnages? were negotiated in' pig ii'on, structural" steel, merchant iron, wire and wire products, wtille increasinginquiries for-rails, bridge and track materials, and motive power indicate the early placing of substantial new business." HAMMOND PEOPLE , SHOULD TRY THIS Otto Negate states that any one who has constipation, sour stomach or gas on the stomach, should try simple buckthorn bark, glycerine, etc., as compound in Adler-i-ka, the new German Appendicitis remedy. A SINGLE DOSE brings relief alost INSTANTLY and Hammond . people are surprised how QUICKLY it helps. -This simple remedy antisepticiies the digestive organs and draws off the impurities.

ment plant at North works one tlundred barrels a day was the out-put. Later a small mill was built at South Chicago
and in 1904 , one plant was built at Buffigton. In 180 it was duplicated and last year the steel corporation authorized $6,000,000 to double the Bufflngton capacity. The same company also owns a cement plant at Universal near Pitts burg and one Is to be built int tho Duluth district. I Money Maker. Ever since the first Bufflngton plant was built it has never ceased operations for a single day. Day and night forces have ben maintained. Because of the cheapness of its raw materials the steel trust is enabled to slash prices at will. Millions of dollars on profit are said to have been out of its cement business. This is one branch of the steel cdtporatlon that is not affected by a fluctuating steel market. Regardless of how the demand for steel is the cement business goes on uninterrupted. AUT01STS PILFER DOCTOR'S FOWLS West Gary Doctor Is Robbed by Thankless Autoists. An automobile party on their way towards Chicago through West Gary yesterday made a short call at the home of Dr. Caldwell and when their made their adieu politely helped themselves to the doctor's fancy poultry and ducks. Just who was in the machine and who Its owner was is not known, but they got out of the machine and stopped long enough to take nine ducks, one goose and a few springers. The 'Hammond police were notified to keep a watch for the machine and party if it came through Hammond, but no trace of it could be found, although a number of police were put on the trail and all the roads leading from Gary were watched. It is believed that the machine went .through East Chicago to Chicago. - TONNAGE " STATISTICS ISSUED (Special to The Times.) Washington. D. C, Oct. 16.

ONE WAY TO BE RID OF IT Persons who desire to become Immune to typhoid fever can do so by joining the United States army.

It requires three weeks to complete the process, which involves several injections in the arm. The recruits are accepted with the understanding that they are to be made Immune to typhoid fever.
SALOONISTS MUST PAY SAME FEES Saloonkeepers must pay the same fees for obtaining new licenses and renewals as were formerly charged, so the supreme court holds in deciding the first case growing out of the Proctor law. The question was raised by a suit to compel the auditor of Vanderburg county to collect the usual S4 fee for renewing liquor licenses and 1 for taking bonds. He had refused on the ground that the section of the fee and salary law providing for tfiese fees was repealed by the Proctor law. Judge Monks, who wrote the opinion, says the word "fees" used In the Proctor law h& no reference to the fees provided for in the fee and salary law. 350 IN FIRST DAY'S GLIDDEN TOUR Gettysburg, Pa..
