FOR MAYOR. Gary, Indiana, May 23, 1913.
I desire to announce my candidacy as

EAT ONIONS.
Eat onions and reduce the high
cost of living, urges an association of onion growers of Texas, which' has forwarded a car load of the succulent Bermudas to be sold in Gary at three
cents a pound.
The onion was the first vegetable known to man. Adam and Eve used it in the Garden of Eve and it is said
to have been one of their chief joys
outside of the apple.
Ever since man has faithfully cleaved to the queen of the vegetable
kingdom. There are very few eat
ables that can be gotten at three
cents a pound now days and the Texas growers are to be commended for their latest move. .
LET IT BE REFERRED.
The Muncie Press wants the New

FRBINCH consular officials assert that they get free dog licenses under the terms of a treaty with France. Here's hoping that the administration of the Hon.

He may merely have been prevented from going to the ball game.

OIL LOCOMOTIVES. India, like the rest of the world, is suffering from an increase in the price of everything, including coal. Hence locomotive engine drivers there are considering the use of oil,
and the adoption of oil engine locomotives has been seriously put 'forward in connection with the operation of the waterless track over which the Trans-Persian Railway would have to pass. , This, however, is very much in the future, but there are still many places in Indiana where oil fuel would be seriously worth consideration.

REPUBLICAN RE-ORGANIZATION
One of the most Important sessions
of the executive committee of tb
Republican National Committee in it3
history, takes place in Washington today, as plans must be discussed for calling a special convention to bring about certain changes for the, unification of Republicans throughout the country. It has been reported that certain leaders are working for a reconciliation betwen the Progres
sives and Republican, with the idea
of consolidating the two organiza
tions. To do thi3, It Is thought that it will be necessary to bring about
the resignation of several members of
the Republican National Committee
who might prove obnoxious to the
Progressives. The Progressives on the other
hand, will also be asked to make some concessions, if a reconciliation is effected. There are those who say that one of the first steps in this direction would be the elimination of
Roosevelt as a Presidential possibility and the surrender of advocacy of the recall of judges and judicial decisions. There, however, are pet hobbles of the Progressives, and it is not at all likely that they will be given up merely for the asking, or even for the demanding.
Senator Root, ex-Senator Crane, Senator Cummins, Senator Sherman of Illinois and Senator Borah Crawford and former Governor Hadley of Missouri are among the men working for Republican and Progressive harmony. Another question that will be con
sidered either by the committee today or the national convention to be
IT WILL TAKE TIME. "The rooting out of the causes of war must be brought about by the slow-acting- forces of popular education; by the progress of International law; by the acceptance and fair execution of the 'open door' policy and by the increase of mutual acquaintance and good will among nations." Charles W. Eliot, president emeritus of Harward, at the Lake Mohonk Peace Conference. '

OH YOU SASS BOX! A press telegram from Gary is as
follows:
"Tha rules of formality wer dispensed with when Judge Leon Gould, puffing a large cigar, said that smoking would be permitted at the morning senslon of his court. The spectators, the lawyers, the jurors and even the prisoners pulled out their pipes, cigars and cigarettes, and soon the Judge was enshrouded with smoke. Fifteen prisoners ; were released without fine or Jail sentences."
Could anything be more thorough

plicity and delightful informality of
the Lake county metropolis? especially than that concluding state
ment that fifteen prisoners were dis
missed without fine or jail sentence?

HOPEFUL FOR CUBA. Cubans take much pride in the feats of the two Cuban aviators who have made air trips, separately and with equal success between Cuba and Florida, but those interesting incidents are as nothing, in real importance, compared with the manner of the change in the presidency of the Cuban republic. When General Mario G. Menocal was inaugurated at Havana, in perfect order and without the least sign of lawlessness or revolutionary plotting anywhere, it macie a new record for Cuba. General Jose Miguel Gomez retired as decorously as Menocal was given the highest

After we have marched in their honor, and listened to streams of oratory, we are after all most deeply impressed by the general display of the
