ONE OF THE GREATEST THINGS. There are great and wonderful things in life to do and think about; and one of the greatest and most wonderful is to be clean, wholesome and honest wife or husband; to keep the home the center of happy, moral life to protect it from every shadow of evil, and to control the impulses

(which come to every human being at times) for indulging in weakness or folly.

PROVISIONS OF COMMISSION BILL,

A number of readers of this paper

have written to inquire the provisions

ot the bill introduced in the legis

lature to give Hammond and East

Chicago a commission form of govern ment.

The bill provides that when Zo per cent of the voters petition for it a city election must be called to vote

on the question of whether a commission government is desired. This

election must be held four months

prior to the city election. If the proponents of the commission form

prevail a city primary for the nomination of two candidates for mayor,

controller, treasurer, judge, clerk and

three councilmen will be held on the last legally appointed registration

day. The candidates run as Individ uals and not under party banners.

The law fixes the mayor's salary

at a maximum of $3,000. It provides that the mayor appoint two members

each of the board of public works,

board of safety and board of health

The city council appoints the" third

member of these boards and the three

councilmen and the mayor-and con

troller constitute the council.

THE BUILDING GENIUS. In the'struggle for advancement that is going on between the cities of the Calumet region progress is measured by building activity. That is tiie real barometer of the prosperity

f a community.

Not only is it important that the

gross expenditures for buildings be

arge but that a large number of

buildings be built. Building opera-

ions divide themselves naturally into hree c lasses; industrial, business and

ivic or semi-civic and residential.

It is more Important, to a com

munity that a large number of resi

dences be built than that a million

dollars be spent in building business

blocks and public buildings. The

home building will lay a foundation

hat will make the other come as a

matter of course.

There ought to be some way by

which the commercial organizations of the various cities would each year

recognize the progressiveness ot citizens who invest their money in building up the community.

A day should be set aside for them

and their names should be read off from a roll of honor. The Hammond

woman who by sheer determination

and against great odds built the Orpheum theatre building did more for State street than any other property owner on that street excepting of E. C. Minas, the merchant prince

of the street..

The erection, of splendid structures

has characterized the development of Gary and the Moe Theatre building and many others now under construction, indicates the faith of citizens in

the future of the city.

In East Chicago the Friedman

building is a tribute to the man whose

name it bears. His faith in the city

he has thus ornamented Is shown conclusively.

The Hammond building, in the city

whose name it bears, pointed the way to the construction of other splendid structures and was the real beginning of Hammond oh a solid basis.

Indiana Harbor and Whiting have

their pioneer building ventures. But

outside of the conspicuous buildings

there have been thousands of citizens

in , the cities of the Calumet region who have taken great chances in the building of the homes which have

built up the community.

Homewood ,the finest residential

district of Hammond, was once called

mortgage town" by the improvident '

loafers of the city. There was a time when scarcely a home in that now beautiful suburb was" free" ffom encumbrances. But now the builders of

these first homes are among the sub

stantial people of the community.

And those who ' delighted most to

sneer about the homes of the residents

of mortgage towns are either shining cuspidors or are ekeing out a hand to

mouth existence in some other way.

One of the leading bankers of the

region one day confided the fact that a certain two story store building bad been the basis of his fortune.

"I was a young man then," said he. "and the people of the town Would

point to that building and say, "That is 's building.' It gave me

It must, be true, Tom is the leader,

sive democrats, tlat is begging

the question with the volumes of silence on the new coistitution staring

us in the face.

Had the great Lincoln known Tom he probably Would lave hesitated in

far and fast and there i3 nothing to indicate that the market has a permanent top limit. Consumers of oil products ask why these conditions, seemingly contradictory, exist at the same time. They demand an explanation from the oil

refiners, especially the Standard Oil Company and its subsidiaries. The strong independent companies are flourishing, but they are uneasy' over the possible consequences of rapid and repeated changes in the price of crude oil. Unless some deep and undiscovered plan exists for far-reaching warfare

in the oil business, the explanation must be the immense and growing consumption of petroleum products and the outlook for still greater inroads upon the stock of oil now above ground. The vast spread of the automobile industry involves the consumption of enormous quantities of

gasoline, and the increasing use of internal combustion engines in vessels is another Important factor in the -' strength of the market for crude petroleum and its products. More than 200 seagoing ships are already equipped with oil engines which do not burn their fuel under ordinarv

boilers, but explode it in their cylinders. The history. of the oil Industry shows that these conditions will probably result in the discovery of new fields and another long step forward In the production of crude oil. If that happens the rise in the price

GARB OF MEDICINE MEN.

It is always pleasant to get the doc

tors In this column. They are such

an appreciative set of good fellows i and they do so hate advertising. A Canadian jurist speaking at the dinner of the New York Post Graduate Medical School doesn't like the way physicians garb themselves and thinks they should have an attire to distinguish them more readily from undertakers. "You ought," says His Honor, "to

wear a three tailed wig, a cocked hat, a stiff brocaded coat and stock, velvet breeches and shoes with buckles. In

your right hand you ought to carry a cane about six feet long, at the top

of which is a box with sweet smelling

perfume. To make this effect even better you might travel in a, Sedan

chair, which should be carried by two footmen, and see that handbills reach

the public."

Fact is, we decry that sort of thing. We have seen it sometimes o' nights, by the flickering light of a coal oil

lamp, in the old days down at Crown Point when we wore short breeches and where the practitioners after doing a turn on the banjo and telling a few jokes start selling snake oil or Winnebago Indian Remedies. But . it's taboo in the profession proper.

Those who built when materials were higher got that much additional income from their property. If the spirit of building up the region can be spread broadcast it w ill have a tremendous effect.
