THE BULL MOOSE TICKET. The bull moose party la Lake County has nominated a county ticket In opposition to the best judgment of a large number of the members of that party. The ticket Itself while made up of good conscientious men does not offer anything extordinary to the people of this county. It is not filling a long felt want. Its personnel Is not such that there
should be a precipitate scramble to support it. It does not promise any great reformation of things in general
In Lake county.
There are some things that need reform in Liike County. Thi3 is ap
parent to every one. It Is time that a change was made in the conduct of at least two county and possibly a
number of township officials.
But the bull moost party does not declare itself for these things. Its
leaders do not point out the defects
in the republican and democratic narties In the county and seek to
remedy conditions.
It simply projects itself into the
field for no other apparent purpose than to have a ticket in the field to
help the democrats. And this is going
to be resented by thousands of clti zens all over the county.
These same bull moosers several
months ago stood by passively and by their silence gave consent to the
selection of the nominees on the re
publican and democratic tickets.
There was no great Issue in the county then. There was apparently
no necessity for a county ticket then.
The nominees on the ticket? were giv
en an implied promise of support
There were no threats of a third
ticket. But suddenly Roosevelt said there was need of a third ticket. His followers then saw there was need of
one.
And then the bull moosers received
orders from state headquarters to nominate a ticket in Lake county. The" orders were carried out. The bosses of the party down Btate had their
way. Now we will see what the clti
zens of Lake county will do with the political nigger babies that have been set up at the dictation of bosses who have no interest other than tbo wrecking of the republican party.

This newspaper has commented,
probably more than a dozen tlme3
lately, upon the need of stringent
treatment In handling the 3,000
negroes in Gary. To be sure, there
are some respectable blacks In the city but the great majority of them are Idle, good for nothing scoundrels.
The most of them live in adultery;
many are the scum driven from other
cities.
Of late the police have had a hard
time with the Gary negroes. The police blame the courts, the courts
blame the prosecutor's office and the
prosecutor's office blames the "special
Judges. Meanwhile the negroes
have grown insolent and act in a way that would not be tolerated ia no
other city.
Only last week It was noted that
the freeing of the negro buck, who
happened to have a couple of hundred
dollars and who escaped punishment
for charges that would have caused him to be lynched down below the
Ohio river, would only serve to make
the bad blacks of Gary all the more
disrespectful of the law.

GABY'S NEGRO DANGER. Another murder has occurred In
Gary's negro quarter. This is the fourth killing elnce the tenth of July and the eleventh since February of last year. In the meantime there have been various crimes committed
by the negroes thefts, holdups.
THE BLOCKING OF CROSSINGS. One of the first things that the
Hammond Chamber of Commerce should do this winter is to start a war on the railroads which block crossings in the business district of
Hammond. The effect of such an agitation
would bo two-fold. It would make It
apparent to the Erie and Monon railroads that yards inside the city limits are decidedly objectionable from the public point of view and It will hast' en the day when track elevation in Hammond will be a fact. There is hardly a day when a long Erie drag does not hold up 150 to 200 people, eight or ten automobiles, five or six wagons and a street car or two. And these blockades are common. They occur at all times of the day.
They are made more aggravating by
the fact that the lack of a Bwltch ten
der delays the entrance to the yards and the proximity of the yards to the Michigan Cenral crossing results in
"block" delays.
Time and again an Erie train will
pull up over the State street and Hohman street crossings only to find that it is impossible to cross the Michigan Central and Indiana Harbor belt
railroad tracks. It ia true that the railroad train
men are more careful than they were about blocking the crossings. They cut their trains at the crossings more than they did and they avoid as much
delay as possible.
But the layout is wrong. The Erie and Monon yards have no place In the heart of a large and growing city. So long as those yards remain
where they are just so long will there
be trouble. Just as certainly as fate the block
ing of these crossings is going to lead to a strenuous agitation before the legislature in favor of track elevation
in Hammond.," .. : Looking at the matter from the point of view of the growth of the city. In five years State street will have far out-distanced Hohman street as a business thoroughfare and Calumet avenue will have developed into an important business district. Now unless track elevation comes so that intercommunication between the Hohman street and State street is possible and easy it is possible that
the present busines center may slnK
into insignificance and that State
street and Calumet avenue will be in
the ascendency.
Hohman street is now laboring un
der the tremendous disadvantage ot having most of its property held in estates and under circumstances which make its Improvement highly
improbable. For instances the Hohman estate will not rebuild the southwest corner of Hohman and State streets for ten
years, if at all. The Hammond estate can not Improve the old Helntz corner until the leases expire five years hence. The Rimbach property
will not be improved for years to
come. The Klelgehe estate will probably not rebuild in years. No Improvements will be put on the K. II Bell property during his life.
And so five or ten years from now
Hohman street will have much the
same appearance that It has now. An analysis of the situation indicates that there will be but little change. .And what has this got to do with track elevation. It simply means that If track elevation does not come that Hohman street will be cut off from
the live end of the business district. It may continue as the location for banks, real estate offices and office buildings. But the live part of the town will lie east of the Monon, Erie
and Nickle Plate tracks. The inevitable trend is in that direction.

TIMES Bl'HEAl', AT STATE CAPITAL. Indianapolis, ind., Sept. 3. When the republican campaign gets in full swing in Indiana the Hoosier voter is eolng to hear speeches from the ablest orators In the party men on whom he can rely and tn whom he win have
lu" connaence. Emmet F. Branch of
aiarunsvuie, chairman of the state speakers' bureau, has Just made a trip to Chicago to consult with the managers of the republican national head-
city, in regard to
peaaers ror the Indiana campaign, and he has returned with the assurances of the national officers that Indiana will be well taken care df in this direction.
- Many of the best speakers, men of
national prominence and leaders In the party will be sent here by the national committee. - Mr. Branch said they told him at Chicago that the na
tional committee Das a list a yard
iuiiK ol prominent party leaders who have volunteered their services for the speaking campaign, and that they are
now being classified and assignments
are being made.
Among , inosa who will come Into T J -..

who was one of the strongest Roosevelt supporters In, the national con

nomination for president and who has
been camping on the Roosevelt trail:
Senator Cummins of Iowa, also a candidate for president, and one of the original Insurgents, who was an Insurgent before many of the presentday loud talking insurgents under

tor Kenyon of Iowa, an able speaker and a thorough campaigner, who was
chairman of the 'Republican national
convention. inese men and many others will be sent Into Indiana. It will be about the greatest lineup of campaign orators that could be put
together.
Senator Borah refused to follow the lead of Roosevelt In his effort to
break up the republican party, but he Is standing regular with his old party. Alt of the number, with the exception of Senator Root, were identified with the progressive element In the party before the national" convention, but they are all remaining loyal to the party and refusing to trail around
after the third termer.
Mr. Branch says that there Is a good
feeling at the national headquarters,
and they told him that the situation all over the country Is Improving ev
ery day.
The date for the formal opening of the republican state campaign has not
yet been set, but it will probably be
along toward the middle of the month
When the opening takes place it is
hoped to have a speaker like Senator Root or Senator La Follette to make
the opening speech. The place for the
opening also has not been chosen.
Scores of local republican speakers are already at work throughout the state making speeches at county con
ventions and other meetings, and as time goes on there will be many more of them, so that the prospect is that
the campaign will be full of oratory
Bull moose workers from over the state were told yesterday by Edwin
M. Lee, state chairman, at a meeting held here, that It was necessary for the bull moosers to nominate county
tickets In all of the counties of the
state. He still Insisted on his orlgl
nal proposition that there must be
separate tickets and no compromise
with anybody. He set forth his rea
sons for this position, and while no one in the crowd raised any rumpus over the matter It was evident from the silence which followed his edict
that It did not take well with them
The question of whether they should
nominate county tickets has been wor
rylng the life out of the bull moosers
ever since Lee made his first demand
They fear that to do so will drlv
away much support from their nation
al ticket and that not to do so will
resemble rebellion against their party bosses. The protest against the idea was so loud that It was thought Lee
