WEST HAMMOND.
The West Hammond vice situation is enabling sensation-mongers among the Chicago newspapers to go the limit in their weird stories. It is bad

worse than conditions warrant.
Iake county is only interested in the West Hammond situation insofar
as it directly affects Lake county.
Lake county cities and country towns da not want their girls to be
lured across the state line to lives of
shame as has been done by these
panderers and violators of the federal
statute anent white slavery.
Conditions had reached the stage where girls were lured from the farm
to jobs ostensibly as maids and hired
girl3 to the border and a qule
transition found them wearing th-3

Mr. Peterson is a clean man, but he Is conservative and his affiliations have been with corporations and trusts. Neither he nor the crowd that urged his nomination stands for progressive democracy. It is a nomination that is out of tune with present day thought. Lafayette Journal.
IN the distressing failure of his anskles to stand the strain President Taft may feel sure of the sincere sympathy of all true golfers.

It is an absolute certainty that there is now an element In the Hammond Saengerbund-Fldelia that believes the club project to be Impossible, that quakes in its boots at the thought of building a $40,000 clubhouse, that is doing its best to discourage the real boosters.

PETERSON'S NOMINATION. The element in the Democratic party which Mr. Bryan opposed at Raltimore succeeded yesterday in nominating John R. Peterson, of Crown Point, as a candidate for congress from the Tenth Indiana district.
Mr. Peterson is a corporation lawyer
and the protest to his nomination was
vehement and unmistakable. Two yearB ago Mr. Peterson was a
candidate for congress In opposition
lo Mr. Crumpacker and at that time he failed to arouse enthusiasm or display strength. Just why the partyshould have returned to Peterson at tlris time, when there Is a demand for aggressive democracy, is not apparent. The only explanation of the
nomination is that the Lake county machine was working. Mayor Durgan, of Lafayette, could have bad the nomination, so it was indicated by the applause. Rut his selection would have invited the opposition of the element behind Peterson and made his election an Impossibility. After seeing the situation Mr. Durgan showed good judgment In declining the empty honor and it would have been an empty'honor with the opposition of the north end of the district. The platform adopted by the Tenth
