THE M'KIXLEY CLUES. The organization of McKinlcy
Club in Lake county is one that does the republican party much credit.
Names of old-time political giants of'
cither party Lincoln, Jefferson, Jackson, Garfield, Cleveland, McKin-
ley are names to conjure with. McKinley was a martyr whose memory
is revered. He stood firmly for the
principles of the republican party,
the principles that are basic and fundamental. If there were more
McKinleyism in the republican parti-
tad y and far less of some other 'isms' it would bo a great deal stronger than It is. There could be no bet
ter name for republican clubs, in Lake county than McKinley. , May his political precipts be enshrined Jn the hearts of the members, of these several organizations. Let them emulate him during the political campaign now on. The people loved MciKnley and the very name itself is a political asset.
primary elections by a candidate forj the Presidential nomination who is the most virulent and conscienceless j demagogue the country has ever pro-' duced and that the candidate of th; Democratic party for whom more delegates have been chosen than for any other is a type of swash-bucking
politician which it was supposed had disappeared from public life, so far as the possibility of receiving any high political nomination was concerned, a half century ago."
THE GUN TOTES. Some people who think that an ugly young cannon is necessary to protect themselves in this day and generation will be surprised to know that General "Chinese" Gordon, one of England's greatest soldiers, never carried a weapon, but for years went single handed among all kinds of turbulent peoples twirling a cane, and was unharmed until killed, by the Mahdj in Khartoum. When you see the "town bully"
with the butt end of a gun protruding from his rear pocket, you may
know that he is simply hunting trouble.
The gun isn't necessary.

MILLER BEACH. It was often predicted that the beautiful lake front at Miller would in time be utilized by some shrewd promoter as an amusement park. That prediction seems near at hand. Chicago has long been demanding a "Coney Island" and if any spot has
the requisites that spot is Miller beach If the scheme pans out well the county will benefit immensely but it will take more than a couple of seasons to demonstrate this.

ANOTHER BIG FACTORY. The decision of the Schlessinge Steel Co., a $20,000,000 steel com
pany, to locate in Hammond and
build a plan that will cost millions and employ thousands Is but another indication of the tremendous growth
of the Calumet region as an Indus trial center.
When the United States Steel Co.
established Gary the attention of the
world was first attracted to the Calu
met district. Since then developments have been bo rapid that the
world has had to keep its eyes on the
region ever since.
On January 10 the residents of the
region were electrified by the announcement that the Baldwin Locomotive works would build a plant at Calumet in East . Chicago which would emnioy 15,000 men. Other industries of lesser Importance have bee nlocated in the region in the meantime. And now comes the news of the consummation of a deal which will give Hammond n pteel industry as large as the Inland
Steel Co. and which will employ as
many un While this industry is located in
Hammond it will do just as much for
East Chicago as it will for Hammond,! just as Hammond expected to benefit somewhat by the locating of th? Ilaldw'" niant at Calumet. This suggests the thought that municipal boundary lines between the cities of East Chicago (mean ink corporate East Chicago), WTiitins; and Hammond are really useless and that after all the 60,000 people who reside in these towns are members of but a si":l community. Hammond rejoiced with East Chi
cago when the Baldwin, plant was located and East Chicago rejoices with Hammond over the location of the
Schlessinger Steel Co.
r.ortT township cities were never
more harmonious. They never had more In common. Therewas. never a
vice, while heard in great volume, in mid-summer, was not megaphoned forth as early as it should have been. The early swat is w'at counts. In
his book, "The Housefly Disease Carrier," Dr. L. O. Howard, the government expert, says ;
It is only of late years that peopH
have come to look upon the housefly as a disease-breeder, being more dis
posed to look upon the busy diptuous insect as a scavenger, but modern
science has changed all this.
Take, for example, the possibilities
in Washington and let us estimate
oh the basis of the survival of all
eggs and all individual flies upon
plenty of places for the insect to develop and for the larvae to feed, up
on an average of ten days to a gener
ation in mid-summer (this period increasing in the autumn and being greater also in the spring time let
us start then on April 15 with a single overwintering fly, which on that day lays 120 eggs and we will
have the following table:
April 15. The overwhelming fe
male fly lays 120 eggs.
May 1 120 adults issue, of which
60 are females.
May. 1060 females lay 120 eggs
each.
May 28 7,200 adults Issue, of
which 3,60 are females.

which 216,000 are females.
June 30 216,000 females lay 120 eggs each.
July 10 25,820,000 adults issu?. '
of which 12,960,000 are females.
July 19 12,960,000 females lay 120 eggs each. , July 29 1,555,200,000 adults issue, of which 777,600,000 are females. August 8 777,600,000 females

ROCHESTER must be a great town. They are still debating down there whether the Titanic is at th bottom of the ocean or suspended

BOTH President Taft and Mr
Roosevelt seem to have a tremendous faculty of covering a whole lot of
territory in their hunt for the elusive
delegate vote.
WHITING has reached the stage
after the tumultous events of the
past few weeks where she can sit up
and eat a little strawberry short cake
now and anon.
"WE sometimes see more through
a tear than through a telescope,'

thought.

ROCKEFELLER Institute asks as.
Why Eat? This is a considerate question when one thinks of how the price of foodstuffs have rone ut. On of
the institute scientists have discovered
that the human body can get along for-, ty days m-ithout eating. Yet If the.
same research were given to the ques-,
tlon of hew to get along without gaso
line and kerosene the motor owners
and farmers wouldn't mind the cost of eats.
SEE that the castle of the Knights of
St. John Hospitallers lias been retaken

ANOTHER new invention to detect

WHEN you begin to figure that sick
ness in this country costs $720,000,000
every year you can readily see why an of the docs In the county can afford au-, tos. i
IN other words, the next time you
have an appendicitis operation you can
figure that the proceeds will probably be split between the doc and the first
automobile dealer.
