If the election officials of both sides do not know the state laws on the subject it won't be because tbey haven't been schooled properly. Now Naming Sheriff. The citizens' party through its progressive division, W. F. Hodges, chairman, has conceded to Chief of Police J. V. Martin the right of naming election Sheriffs. There will be fifty-two in J, one democrat and one citizen man in each of the twenty-six precincts of Gary.

As things have been quiet on both sides there is no talk just now of having the state troops.

Lotz said to the court in reading this part of the election law "The device named and list of candidates of the Democratic party shall be placed in the first column on the left hand-side of said ballot; and of the republican party in the second column; and of any . other party in sucl order as the board of election commissioners shall decide;' "The law unalterably fixes the poaition of the republican party for the second column. The words "and of any other party in such order as the board of election commissioners shall decide' give the board discretionary power." Mr. Lotz took the position that the law never Intended that the first column should be left a blank with only the democratic emblem at the

Whiting is the best paved city in Indiana. Whiting has the cleanest streets of any city in Indiana. Whiting has the best lighted residence streets in Indiana. Whiting's Lake Front Park is becoming a gem. Whiting's Lake Shore Driveway will soon be the finest of its kind in Indiana. The great achievements of the Park's Administration have been performed at the minimum of expense. Cut fax rate still remains far lower than any city of Lake County.

On this point his conclusion was that if the board has discretionary power, that its view of the fact that there is no regular democratic party in East Chicago, that it is empowered to place the citizens' ticket in the first column. On the question of whether or not the board if bound by the common council in recognizing' 1 an official i printer, Mr. Lots argued that the state twlde election law was never intended apply to common councils in matters of this kind. He showed that Tub Times had perfect legal authority to print the ballots.

"Bar prices, long held firmly, are showing less resistence to the general tendency. In Chicago and centeral western districts iron rolling mills have taken business at the expense of steel car mills.

"Further I sat as a member of the grand Jury and from the innermost depths of my conscience I desire to say to the citizens and voters, to the taxpayers, business men and saloon men who at this time are conducting under the law a legitimate business In fact to every one who loves liberty of conscience, freedom of individual thought and expression, who loves a square deal with special favors to none to these I say, and say freely, that 1 cannot uphold and support the present republican administration.

The Gary foreign leaders who are behind an organization to wipe out fake medical institutes wrote to the Chicago Tribune and told of their work as follows: Gary, Ind., Oct. 28. (Editor of the Tribune.) About two months ago, through the efforts of F. L. Ranko of the Northern State bank in Gary and M. S. Fee, was organized the AntiNostrums and Quackery association, which was Immediately indorsed by the best citizens in the city. The purpose of this association la to protect the poor and ignorant foreigners, who positively are the greatest victims of the quack doctors, and as the most effective means against the exploitation by the greedy specialist it will try to educate the people In their own language and tell them in plain and expressive words who Is conducting the museums and medical institutes. To this end many thousands of circulars have been printed In different languages and distributed among the

I also hope you will not orget to praise and encourage the noble work of the Anti-Nostrums and Quackery association In Gary so that the same Idea may spread sll over the country. I ' firmly believe the education of the people is the best method to keep the medical caves closed. HEADER. HIM NOT Herr Max Kirchman, erstwhile candidate for mayor of Gary on his own bull moose ticket and the Gladstone of Gary politics, although prohibited by the courts from using the progeaslve emblem, today issued a "whoop-la" statement saying that he ain't mad at nobody. "Sunshine Amidst the Clouds" is the title of Herr Kirchman's manifesto Issued today. Here is part of it: "Wheel I ain't mad at nobody. Be cause I sacrificed my unselfish efforts to keep the Progressive party alive In the coming city election, thus complying with the urgent requests of the "true" Progressives. the controlling elements of the con-"fusion" firmament, hounded me, finally landing before a court. In this harassing procedure of theirs, I could not accompany them to the limit (though the election laws favor me) for lack of funds. "I succumbed to rise to fight on the Progressive cause In this city election under the name of "Square Deal Party" and the "Square" as device, my action being always in accordance with that emblem. The sentiments expressed in my circulars printed "before the present "persecution" are still mine even in this hour. "The voters of Gary will readily condemn all such tyranical and usurptng acts, like the present just off the stage. While the "enemies" disappear behind the sceneries for refreshments, etc., the cause of progressiveism will remain unsullied, supported by the "true," even If temporarily known under a new appelation.

A good part of the success which Mayor Parks and the council have had with public Improvements during the past four years is to be ascribed to James Freeman, who has been the inspector on almost every important Job. The Judge, as he i is generally called, was first appointed nearly four years ago and immediately showed himself the right man for the Job. He has tho happy combination of firmness, tact, and mechanical sense and training. Formerly, Mr. Freeman was the carpenter foreman for the Standard Oil company. Foeght to Death In Mine. Half a mile underground. In a gallery of a coal mine at Bethune, France, three miners, with their picks, suddenly attacked a fourth, against whom they had a grudge. The man fought desperately, killing one and wounding another before he himself was killed. Other miners sounded the alarm gong of the mine, and the murderers were arre'sted. Horace Hocking, the former West Side Branch Y. M. C. A. athlete, has taken to his running again in anticipation of the Indoor season. Hocking has hopes of being a member of the N. X. A.

TIMES BUREAU AT STATE CAPITAL. Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 29. Neither Vice President Marshall nor Senator Kern will come home to take any part in the democratic campaign in this city, although the democratic machine has sent the S- O. 8. signal to both of them to hurry home and help save tre democratic city ticket. In fact, it Is said that the machine has even asked these men to come to Indiana and make two or three speeches in various places. Kern will come home to vote, but It is doubtful if Marshall even takes that much interest in the campaign this year. The fact is that Marshall does not like the Indiana democratic machine and he does not care who knows It. The machine nominated him for governor In 1908 because it could not help itself. It had to nominate Marshall to beat L. Ert Slack, who was the real anti-machine candidate and who was skinning Samuel M. Ralston, the machine candidate for nomination In the state convention. And then Marshall whipped the machine by compelling the state convention to adopt his plan for the nomination of a candidate for senator by the convention Itself Instead of by legislative caucus. This was another sad blow for the machine, but Marshall Just grinned. So it is not at all strange that Marshall declines! to come here and take a hand in the campaign to help elect the machine ticket. But most of the machine leaders have expected Kern to come and show his hand and help to put the democratic ticket across, and since he has sept word that he will not do anything; of the kind the machine democrats are trying the find an excuse they can give for his failure to respond. They are now saying that conditions arc such at Washington that It would not be wise for Kern, the sen GARY BOY FOUND BY CHICAGO POLICE Edward Felix, nine years old. Is held by the Chicago police.

ate democratic leader, to leave at thlsV time. They say it is more important that he remain there with his hand on the wheels of legislation in congress than, to come out hero for the city campaign. He will come to vote, but that is all. Since this has become known, all arrangements for the hifir democratic, ral-

! ly planned for the Friday night before the election have been called off. Kera was to be the speaker at that rally, and without him there is no need for a meeting. Ralston has made his speech and there are no other big democrats to speak. So it is all off. EAT LESS MEAT IF BACK HURTS BJBSSasBHBSSSSBS Take a Glass of Salts to Flush Kidneys If Blad- ; der Bothers You. Eating meat regularly eventually produces kidney trouble in some form or other, says a well-known authority, because the uric acid In meat excites the kidneys, they become overworked; get sluggish; elog up and cause all sorts of distress, particularly backache and misery in the kidney region; rheumatic twinges, severe headaches, acid stomach, constipation, torpid liver, sleeplessness, bladder and urinary irritation.
