THE TENTH FOR TAFT That the republicans of the Tenth district who meet next Thursday week in Hammond to select delegates to the republican national convention will endorse the administration of President Taft and elect Taft dele gates lg almost certain. The signs v., a - f""" WJ cay. The first convention to select dele to the Hammond convention oc-1 curred last Saturday in Walker town ship, Jasper county a strong farming community. Amid great enthusiasm, the administration of President Taft was endorsed and John O'Connor an ardent supporter of the president was chosen as a delegate to the Hammond convention Tart sentiment abounds every where and republican leaders are re 2 ceivlng reports from precinct commit3 teemen all over the district that fill 2 them full of confidence. Even in l velt spot in the entire district it is 3 believed that Taft delegates to the 1 district convention will be chosen. ZINN TO THE BLOCK. We expected that there .would ba quite a row when Lieutenant-Colonel Zinn, government engineer for thl3 district, made public his. report on the Chicago harbor conditions. It will be remembered that he advocat3 ed the establishment of a great com mercial harbor at Gary or Indiana Harbor and the building of a big belt railway. The army man, honest and impartial, recognizes Chicago's crowded conditions, he knows that the Chicago-Calumet district wi have twice its present population beore long and that consequently har bor facilities that permit if the utmost expansion must be had. Unless we are mistaken Colonel Zinn will be transferred to some other government post before long. Hl3 activities have stirred up the hostility of the Chicago dock interests and they are very powerful at Washington. Yet the colonel's views are those of his long line'of predecessors who told the truth about the great advantages of the Calumet district. And the predecessors who did so went elsewhere. When Colonel, now General Bixby chief of the engineer ing corps of the army, was district engineer here he said the same thin but the powers that he "got his goat. The Chicago Examiner, one r.t Mayor Harrison's organs, is going after Colonel Zinn with brickbats because of his opposition to the les3 superior plans of the Harrison admin istration. The Examiner says: "The advocates of a great commercial harbor at Gary or Indiana Harbor or some other point outside the city limits started their usual campaign of misrepresentation." It ends up with this warning: "If the army heads at Washington do not soon suppress Colonel Zinu's enthusiasm in attacking Chicago's harbor plans, some Chicago Congressman should call for an official inquiry into his strange activities." There is a ray of hope in the fact that the rapid growth of the Calumet district is getting to be qf such pro
portions that it will tako more than!
Chicago docK owners to thwart the 'great harbor facilities we are ao badSly la need of. SCOFFERS, BEWARE. Scoffers It la admitted with re gret that scoffers are not yet extinct are prone to believe that woman's prerogative In Leap Year is a myth. Just like all the bis hold-ups are said to be. But it Isn't. From Newport, Ind., comes the story of how Miss Rocella Jackson, after waiting seventy-two years for a. man to take the Initiative, seized the lines in her own hands and lei Leander Edgerton, sixty-eight years old ,to the altar. That this is ths groom's third venture merely shows that a man cannot escape if woman wills otherwise. And 1912 has ten months to run. WHITING'S SPIRIT. The high school students of the Whiting schools and the citizens of that place recently gave an. admirable demonstration of their sportsmanlike qualities on the occasion of the return of the high school basket ball team from Bloomington. Spirit, whether it be high school spirit, college spirit or an ebullition of patriotism is a fine quality. Spirit is the real poof of unselfishness for in the enthusiasm for the cause personal interests are forgotten. Real spirit manifests itself in the patriot whether the cause is winning or losing. The people of Whiting de monstrated their splendid qualities of sportsmanship by making as much of their vanquished basketball team as though it had been a victor in the contest for the state championship. Over 10 Whiting citizens including Senator Gavit and the leading business men headed by the Whiting band came to Hammond to welcome home the team. It was a great demonstration. A creditable one. It is the development of these qualities that make the schools of the United States the greatest institutions, of their kind in the world. It is these qualities, fully developed in the citizen, which keeps down anarchy, curbs the grafters, puts good men in public office and safeguards the public. Hats off to Whit ing. RELIGION AND HEAL ESTATE We see by the esteemed South Bend Times that "Rev. A. C. Mayo D D. and other prominent Gary citizem will assist Sunday in special services at the Perley school under the auspices of Taylor's chapel, A. M. E Zion church, March 24," It is further recited that "Colonel' Mayo, demo-republican politician and sometime spellbinder for Tom Knotts, as we know ;him around here "will address the congregation at 7:45 o'clock and that, "Monday evening Rev. Mayo will lecture in the school house. Assisting him will be David Glueck, Louis Glueck and Harry Sultzbaugh of Gary." tor the benefit of the uninitiated Dave, Louie and Harry and the colonel-preacher are all real estate agents for Colonel Louie Bryan of "baby doll fame." Just what connection there is between Rev. and Col. Mayo, D. D., preaching and lecturins and having lot vendors on hand is not made clear by the South Bend newspaper but It Is presumed that, after the lecture some "baby doll lots" will be given away with each bible sold. If the lecture is pulled off, it will no doubt be a classic, and the South Bend colored folk will have learned what close connections there are between religion and real estate. Yet considering what a great metropolis South Bend is nothing less than a bishop ought to have been sent down to work the religion-real estate racket. IT seems from this distance that the Italians have slain so many Turks that there can hardly be any of the latter left except the few that ars blowing their whistles outside of the wiggly dance shows. EXCHANGE truthfully says that the people are becoming generally worked up about who shall hold the offices but after the offices are filled they will have to hustle for a living just the same. nr-,it.ii! js no reason wny you can't have a neck, arms and legs like mine," says the beauteous Annette Kellerman.
