GILL. DEVELOPING THE "ADJUNCT." Foxy, people, those . Canadians. They eet up a. roar of indignation when a letter written by the President was published in which he referred to Canada as an "adjunct" of the United States, In case the reciprocity treaty went into effect. And a11 the while they have been quietly working to make the United States an adjunct of Canada. The cat was let out of the bag when it became necessary to make public the fact that Drerjaratlons were under way for guaranteeing fifteen millions of bonds which Ara to be sold to raise money for tunneling the St. Lawrence River at Montreal ,for the use of the Grand TrunV Railway. Furthermore, it is to ba noted that there are. five times a many miles of Canadian-owned railways in the United States as there are miles of American railways in Canada. Also, the Dominion government has suspended the operation of one of its exclusion laws to permit the importation or laborers from the United States for railroad construction work. ut it s an right. Uncle Sam is big and strong enough to carry tha Lady of Snows on bis shoulder without feeling the weight, and gallant enough to take genuine delight in doing it. THE BRYAN OF TODAY. Those who listened to William Jennings Bryan lecture In Gary the other night heard a different Bryan than the one they saw in the campaigns of 1896 and 1900. There was none of the old fire and sparkle pres ent. W wasn't dull neither. Instead there was more maturity abou him. To be sure, he still retains a great deal of radicalism but he has acquired a considerable amount of conservatism. Years, travel and experience have worked many changes in the great commoner If the democrats nominate hid at

On the pretext of rendering certain service enormous fees have been paid out by the old administration. The lawyers cost west Hammond, over $5,000 last year. There are a score of lawyers who would have been glad to do this work for an annual salary of $2,500. Because the conditions which pre vailed before the new administration took office have a bearing on the present situation, the following may be cited as some of the abuses that were perpetrated by the old administration: raid to Samuel K. Markham to f?o to Springfield in the interests of the old board of trustees to knock out the enabling act which would make West Hammond a city $1,700.00 PRid to Markham subse quently Agreed to pay Atwood, Pease & Lnuka for services in the interests of the board and against the people in the mandamus suit to compel the old board to hold a special election. Paid Joseph Bellnskl his annual salary Paid Joseph Bellnskl an illegal additional fee to reverse the city ordinances. 100.00 1.560.15 900.00 750.00 Total $5,010.15 Some of the board members were a'nsious and willing that Joseph Belinski should be appointed to the office of corporation counsel in the very face of the fact that he demanded $750. In addition . to his salary for work that he should have done to earn that salary. Now the people of West Hammond are squarely up aganlst the proposition of further extravagances in the way of attorney's fees. The people of W7est Hammond have elected a city attorney who ought to be able to handle every bit of legal work that, could possibly originate in West Hammond. There is absolutely no necessity for appointing a corporation counsel at this time. Such an appointment could be only interpreted by the people of West Hammond as an extravagant expenditure of money in a city that is now bankrupt. City Attorney Katz seemB to have incurred the displeasure of the. new city administration for while Joseph Belinski, the acting city attorney, received $900 a year for his service K.atz was cut flown to ?300. He wa also compelled to give bond for $2,000. Katz declares that he is willing to do all of the legal work of the city for his present salary, although he thinks he ought to have more. But with this opportunity to have lis legal work done, for a very smail figure, the city ordinances provide for. the employment of a corporation, counsel who is to be paid a REASON ABLE FEE for his work. It appears to the average observer that it is about time that Mayor WoczszinBki and City Attorney Ka1 got together and made some arrange ment by which the city of Wst Hammond could be saved from such lavish expenditures for attorney's fees. Atwood claims he got only a REASONABLE FEE. WILL MAKE 'EM SICK. Scientists have just figured out that Solomon's temple cost five billion dollars. The news will make the Hon. Bill Cain and some of the rest of our steemed contractors actually moan because they don't have jobs like Solomon's temple any more. - . GOLDEN DAYS TOE CANDIDATES When women get their rights sure, they have them out beyond the Rockies now. Mrs. Annie Pitzer Is

to be one of the twelve de legates j

from Colorado to the national demo Cratlc convention. Mrs. Pitzer is Champ Clark's sister-in-law. Of course, she'll vote for Champ. Nice thing when this suffrage movement gets into full swing. Almost any candidate has grandmas, mother-In-laws, third cousins, and old sweet hearts all the way from the Penobscot to Pasadena. When the golden days come he will be sure of some votes. IT is understood that Billy Sunday is to be invited to a certain City in the Galumet region shortly. Yes sure, invite him, there is about $20,000 not needed here that Billy will undoubtedly cart away with him while some of. our estimable preachers Tiave a danged Tiard time making both ends meet. WHAT can you think of a man who passes you a nickel cigar which somebody gave him and he won't smoke and then 'get angry at you because you don't fall into raptures over "his generosity. IF there were not so many sob sisters "writing love lorn squash in the metropolitan papers, there wouldn't be so many fool girls mooning around the streets in summer. AMONG the most famous of the Marshall boomers on the Marshall special train will not be that great friend of the pee-pul Alderman Maurice Napoleon Castleman. . STILL, we can never reconcile ourselves to the idea of a lot ol Calumet region ladies parading down Hobman street under 35c hats as they did in New York. WIDOW has been elected mayor of Dayton, Wyo. Very proper too. Let us provide for our widows in this way. Lots of mayors are old women anyhow. THEKE Is to be a mock national convention at the Hammond liigh school. Ambitious youngsters evidently want to put a kink in the big show. WHEN the people oT the Twin Cities get on a rampage of enthusiasm they make all other celebrations look like Sunday school picnics. MAN has to be a colonel nowadays to be mentioned for governor of Indiana, theres Col. Carlisle, Col. New, Col. Lockwood and Col. Durbin. F. R. WELL everybody can't be pleased. Some want a president given a six-year . term and tome think Tie deserves a life term. DOCTORS are bragging about making a new nose Tor a lady out of a flap of Bkin from her. own fore head. WThat wext Indeed? HAVING the Baldwin Locomotive Works off our minds for a few dav. we can now give a little time to the sweet girl graduate. BOSTON pugilist who wanted to fight McFarland in Gary evidently wants to ihave something to tell his grandchildren about. AT least Hegewisch isn't making any great fuss about fire bugs but that would be rubbing it into Burnham too much. IF we !Ould see ourselves as others see us there wouldn't be nearly so many self-flatterers and e-gotists in this world. DIDN'T we tell you that John Fritz would be pardoned? Fogarty and implore you not to shed any tears. IN the meantime what does our good and faithful friend Gen Grosevenor think of the situation. WHAT has Isecome of the old-fash ioned man who was too polite and too well-bred to call anyon a liar? LINCOLN was called the rail split ter but we now have with us the great party splitter. RARE politician it is who can dis tinguish between abuse and argu ment. WELL the woman who hasn't got a hired girl Is her own boss anyway. DID . anybody fiddle when ham was burning? Bura-
