THE AFTERMATH.
Dissatisfied with splendid wages.
unparalleled good times, general proa
perity and factories running to ca
pacity, the people of the United States
voted yesterday decisively for change and WE HOPE THEY GET IT!
The democratic party wisely taking
advantage of the internecine warfare in the republican ranks was swept
into fullest power by a terrific land
slide and now has full control of the
government. They have our bes
wishes and CONGRATULATIONS! Amid the toppling wreckage of the republican party, with Its historic pile crumbled into unrecognizable fragments there strides the Modern Apostle of Discontent the Arch-Egoist Theodore Roosevelt. He gazes around him on the debris with a grin and with triumphant staccato simply says DEE-LIGHTED! ! ! GEE what grand gal-lorious times we are going to have now eh?
GODNIGHT Hi Johnson, here s your hat you into the outer darkness.
THANK the good Lord the straw vote jackass is folding up his traps.
THE ony prediction we made was that Tuesday would be Nov. .".
LET US SHOW THEM.
WE certainly went down with our colors flying anyway.
OH what a difference in the cold gray morning!
It is time now to doff the political
garb and settle down to business.
The country has been disturbed fn-!
months with the quadrennial disturbance known as a presidential election. The democratic party flushed with Ita
victory promises us great things and the nation extends its slncerest prayer that having come back in decisive fashion, it will take advantage of its opportunities. It ha3 been the custom of the democratic party o
accept defeat philosopieally take of its fighting togs and get ready for the next battle and the republicans can do no less than to follow a very good example. It is up to the republicans to show that they can be just as good losers as the. democrats and give an outstretched hand of congratulation and goodfellowship. We are all neighbors and brothers so let us dwell ia peace. There are other things in this good old world of ours besides politics.
THE Y. M. C. A. MOVEMENT. The Hammond Athletic A&sociation was Hammond's most recent experiment in a plan to provide recreation and entertainment for its young men. The experiment was worth while for the reason that it proved the necessity for Buch an institution in Hammond. It failed for the want of proper supervision. The athletic, feature lead to boxing, boxing lead to prize fighting and then prize fight promoters, who thought they saw a good thing in the sport, took charge of the club. The result was the organization got a bad name. Young men who valued
their reputations and were somewhat
discriminating in the selection of their associates would not patronize
it. The financial collapse followed. The failure of this institution may not be attributed to a lack of members but to mis-management and poor business practices.
it is now proposed to estannstt a Young Men's Christian Association in Hammond. There are points of wide difference in the management of a Y. M. C. A. and the old Hammond Athletic Association. In the first place Hammond will not have a Y. M. C. A. unless it puts up the money with which to build and equip one Not part of the money; but ftI1 of lf- After It is built it ia merely a matter of maintenance. That is why Y. M. C. A.'s do not fail now days. And the club and gymnasium facilities of the asociation will be open to all who agree to abide by the rules of the organization. These require only that a man be a gentleman. The dining room facilities of the Gary association are highly valued by the members.
The Y. M. C. A. is probably the most liberal of all Christian institutions. Boxing is encouraged under
the supervision of the athletic instructor, billards and pool are installed; there Is bowling and usually a swimming pool. Among educational lines a great deal i3 done. Lectures are givne free to members, entertainment? are provided, night schools afford day workers an opportunity to get an education and there are scores of other activities that make the association valuable to its membership. Within a few weeks the state organization will hold Its annual meet
ing in Hammond. The purpose of this meeting is to educate the people of this community in the work that is being carried on in a sensible practical way by these associations. After that it Is expected that a campaign for contributions for a Hammond Young Men's Christian
Association will bo inaugurated. This will be done if there Is a prospect for sucess. And if Hammond shows the proper spirit it too will be classed among the cities of the state that have placed one of these splendid institutions at the disposal of its young men.

TIME HAS ITS WAY.
The appearance of Harry Moose in
Crown Point, who announces he is ready to reveal everything, must be
disquieting to say the least to certain Lake county people. Detectives have been working on this case all of these months. For all the people know both Mayer Himmelblau and Antony Baukus may make their appearance in Lake county at any time. The people know that the state does not want liaukus or Himmelblau except as witnesses against them and the old ring that carried things with a high hand in the Gary council be
fore the prosecutions. It must be almost uncanny to think that after a witness has disappeared for whole months at a time that he bobs up unexpectedly and threatens to precipitate an unpleasant criminal trial that was beginning to be forgotten. It must be a tremendous responsibility to have to maintain a perpetual solicitude for the welfare of three or four witnesses who disappear and reappear at the most, unexpected intervals. It. is known that Moose has been in conference with Samuel Parker,
the special prosecutor appointed by
Governor, now Vice-resident-eleot Marshall, who has been employed to "see that thing through" at any cost. This means that the state of Indiana is still back of the prosecution. It may mean more arrests for perjury and possibly for jury bribing, for these were common practices in other trials. Time has not weakened the determination of the administrators of the law to see that exact justice is done. Offenses against the city
of Gary are to be punished so that
for years to come it will be a warning
to the tempted and a lesson to the
fallen.
"FIVE nuns died in saving orphans" reads the head-lines. Ah these brave long-suffering, patient
women! How great their glory some day in the future when Time shall be no more.
NEW York and Chicago newspapers are quarreling over which cty's women are the most bow-legged. Well that's one way of changing the subject from politics anyway.
ALSO the last about the man who stops you on election day with the cheerful Idiot question, "Well how many times have you voted yet?"
WHEN a magazine tells us how to replace worn out knobs on auce-pan covers it is no use making merry about the high cost of living.

CONCERNING SALADS. Of the Innovations that have been Introduced Into the American diet within a period of possibly thirty years, perhaps there is none which la more pronounced and which has attracted less attention than the general adoption of a salad as a regular course at dinner. We bear no brief for those mysterious dishes of the kitchen chicken salad and lobster salad for too
often they are a meaningless jumble
with a painful afterclap. Reference
is made to the custom of eating light vegetable salads, a very refreshing and a very beneficial custom. Time was when our lettuce, crisp and cool, was served with plenty of powerful sugar and very acidulous cider vinegar. We believe that some of our elders manfuly hold to the habit to this day. More often now it is customary to see lettuce dressed with a soothing combination of oil and vinegar and such other seasonable condiments as give it relish. But we have gone a long way beyond the lettuce field, and have included in our likes romalne., endive, the artichoke, the beet and that email leaved and edible plant best known by the plain title of field salad. We know better than we did the merits of the bitter but beneficial dandelion, and have learned that the
plain string bean cooked and served cold with oil and vinegar is fully as appetizing as itvis served warm with a cream dressing or plain.
Yet time was when one who poured oil upon his lettuce was looked upon with mild contempt as foolish or affecting a supercilious attitude over hia fellows.
THE football fan may succeed in working up a little enthusiasm now, but it is pretty late for the rah, rah boys.

TOO BAD, TOO BAD. Here just when we thought that a
great moral wave was sweeping over Gary up bobs this Moose confession
with some very sordid trails. Virtue had recently attained such a state in Gary that the very aldermen demanded that no more joy rides be taken
in the city automobile. "Dog-Face Charley" and Diamond Bill were sent
Into banishment and it was even proposed that there lie honest scales and
peck measures. Folks, like in good King Alfred's time .could Jpave a few
pounds of coal on the sidewalk at night and rest assured that it would be there when they got up in the
morning.
Even the school board got so honest that some of the trustees uever let more than $3.000 a. mere dribble-
leak out at a time and that honest
paragon of virtue, the Illinois Im
provement and Ballast company became so sweet and patriotic that !t
leaped over the fences at the Bteel
plant and insisted on doing its share
of the public improvements by taking a $235,000 job for $299,000; and like some of the school trustees, no one even offered it. a leather medal for
braving the possible wrath of a grand
jury.

YOU can always depend on Gary to
have an exciting election day. If there aren't some heads broken there is always some scanda.1 creeping out of the dark spots.
AMONG those who went to bed early last night and who didn't give a continental how things went was our old friend, Willuni Jennings Bryan. IT Is only after election that the fellow who got elated over straw votes begins to figure that straw is the whole
basis of tht-ir existence. THIS little Tommy Marshall certainly is a revengeful gentlemen. He evidently didn't forget Mayor Knotts' "chloroform special" to Baltimore. THE reason that a lot of these bachelors nevet get married is that they figure that one pair of cold feet is enough these cool nights. NOW here when we thought that we had every tiling nice anil quiet in Gary, all of ttie city officials disinfected and all of the tainted money ready to go down to Washington to be laundered, the lid pops off. Gary couldn't stay quiet for two months if it wanted to. NOW that the election is all over with we might add that one of the things that got our goat was the action of soma of the Chicago newspapers, especially the braying Tribune, trying to run marked ballot samples to show their readers how to vote. NO doubt T. R. Is looking about for a lot of these s-tate campaign managers
that told him that everything was lovely In their bailiwicks. We fear that there is going to be a big addition to the Ananias club membership. HOLY sjiioivE: It may bo i - '
