fitted by the location of the Schles- since the business office began to inger Steel Company in that section dominate the editorial rooms thertj of the region. ' ihas been a marked decadence. The situation in Hammond is' Indianapolis is what would be different than it was in either Gary called a provincial city yet the edior East Chicago when big plants torial columns of its News are far have located.

the north side had been sold out t3 the worklngmen of the city. They will reap most of the benefit. Many of them have been holding their property for years in the hope that something would happen to enhance the value of it. Their faith has been rewarded. It Is expected that the unearned increment on the property of the north side will amount to millions of dollars which will be largely divided among a class of people will need it most. Of course the real estate dealers will make a great deal of money but they will not make it all as has been the case in other cities. It is expected that the Hammond workingman will still have the opportunity to buy residential lots for a reasonable figure and make money on tb.3 increase that will surely follow the building of the plant. Anything that will add to the prosperity of an appreciable part of the population of a city means greater prosperity for everybody. Another feature of the increase in the value of realty on the north side Is

the fact that the increased values will pave the way for street, and sewer improvements that are so badly needed. It la believed that the deep sewer project will now go through with out any objection. The bane of the north side has

THE CHICAGO NEWSPAPERS, not intend to single out the merits There was once the time when the,of the more Important organs of the

editorial columns of the Chicago (newspapers were forces in the communlty and when to read them was to come in contact with brilliant intellects. But this is no more. Ever ing, tneir perspective iane in loreign affairs with a keen perception, may gain instruction from them. Of the Chicago newspapers, ths News editorials possess no stamina, i The cash register seems to be the determining factor when decided poinions are to be uttered. There is more character to the Record-Herald, and like the News, its news columns are clean, conservative and an admirable piece of journalistic fabric, but the range of its editorial writers is too confined. The once-powerful Tribune has steadily fallen from the heights attained by Medill. It pays too much attention to Its own political bickerings, and, like Its contemporaries, its grasp of world events is too limited. The Journal strikes hard at times but its "opinions are invariably as unstudied as they are brief. Only one side is seen by the Socialist and if the reader depended upon the daily Brisbane in the American his editorial taste would eventually drop to a mediocre level. The vigor that its more energetic sister, the Examiner, presents is too frequently spoiled by. long dissertations upon 85-cent gas, traction tangles, Sullivanlsm, and . its readers $4.50

Harmon of Ohio for a presidential candidate who is coming as near landing the nomination as he will. KANSAS has had what it calls a "million-dollar rainfall." But . the people along the Mississippi probably think the price is too high. ST. Louis is bragging about its ripe strawberries. Probably, though, only for the purpose of diverting attention from its ball clubs. IT is pretty hard to live without your favorite daily isn't it?

This ought to make us satisfied with our own Lake county domesticated ones even if they have long probisces.

TO give you an idea how accurate some nearby newspapers are; Qn Wednesday in the story about the strike vote of the mailers' union The Examiner said that It was 9S to 6, The Tribune said It was 100 to 6 and the j Record -Herald passed it off as 106 to 8. THE days when the Sunday morning j church services get to be drowsy are now at hand. . STEEL trust official is accused of burning important papers. The faderal courts should take Into consideration that the steel trust had to keep ita big blast furnaces going during the strike even if some documents and a few piano stools had to be pitched into the hungry flames. GARY cops are to hold their annual ball, in two separate halls. This will lessen the profits of the ger.t who is to get the concession for checking the clubs and pistols. ALD. BATTLE AXE CASTLEMAN is arranging for a big carnival to be held! for the benefit of the Gary bribery cases defendants. In this connection if old Battle Axe will permit himself to be exhbited the profits ought to be big and there ought to be no objections. R. G.

DAILY FASHION HINT.

Children's Dress. Simple little frocks are always nicest for the small child, and we five in this design one of the cleverest frovks ever designed for a little girl. The garment closes at the left side of the front. Bands of contrasting material trim the round neck, side closing line, belt and cuffs. The model can be carried out in percale, chambray or ging'ham. Pale blue xingham with blue and white striped bands is a nice suggestion. The pattern. No. 5,793, is cut in sizes 2 to years. Medium size requires 2 yards of 36 Inch material and yard of 27 Inch contrasting goods. The pattern can be obtained by sending 10 cents to the office of 'his paper. Indiana Harbor
