Monday, Visiting THE LAKE COUNTY ELECTIONS In three of the five Lake County cities the voters met yesterday and recorded their desire to return to private life, three mayors -and start with a clean slate for another four years. In Gary R. O. Johnson citi zens' candidate defeated Thomas E Knotts one of the most remarkable political figures In Lake County's his tory: In East Chicago W. Frank Callahan citizens' candidate defeated Dr. A. G. Schlieker the only republi can mayor elected four years ago In the entire Tenth district In Ham mond Mayor John Smalley, democrat, was reelected over Peter Crumpacker, republican. In Whiting Mayor Beau mont Parks, democrat, was defeated by Walter Schrage, citizens, and in Crown Point Mayor E. A. Krost democrat was reelected over Michael Grimmer, republican. In every instance the victory was decisive. The Gary election marks the political end of Thomas E. Knotts and the disintegration of the most powerful political machine ever operative in thl3 corner of the state. Wlthhis remarkable personality and indomitable qualities of leadership Knotts has reigned in Gary longer than most any other man could were charges brought against him such as have been brought against Knotts. John son s election stamps him as a commanding figure in Gary now. It has been a battle of Titans such as only men of absolute nerve can make. It Is no child's play to meet the situa tion In Gary. In East Chicago, the personal triumph of Frank Callahan and the citizens' ticket is amazing, but it marks a new era In Lake County politics. Decency will prevail. The personalities injected into the campaign by the republican candidate through the hirelings who penned the drivel and rot in his personal organ undoubtedly set hundreds up on hundreds of voters against him. As in the case of Mayor Knotts of Gary the Indictment brought against Mayor Schlieker In the courts helped to defeat him. In Whiting the defeat of.Beaumont Parks Is an Instance where a clean moral high-minded man was defeated because the voters at the last election surrounded him with a council against whom violent criticism was made. Walter Schrage the mayorelect is a young man of pleasing personality and a republican of high order. His victory is remarkable considering that he is the first republican mayor Whiting ever had though elected on the citizens' ticket. In Hammond the re-electon of Mayor Smalley shows that the people have placed the stamp of their approval on his policies. The most significant feature of the Hammond

He made his fight single-handed. He was without an organ. He routed the progressives and four other tickets and did it In such fashion that commands admiration. Had there been but another candidate in the field against Mr. Crumpacker the result would have been different. In Crown Point Dr. Krost's reelec tion was a foregone conclusion. He had made a good mayor, a wrthy successor to the late lamented H. H. Whele rand was deserving of victory. THE. CITIZEN IN ACTION. Home, church and school these are the rocks of society. The able administrator of civic affairs becomes the warder of all three. For upon those three, directly or indirectly, depend all the considerations of good citizenship. Here is the home the social unit. Without it neither the church nor the school could exist, for all three are organically intertwined. The home presupposes the enforcement ol all laws to protect Its physical quietude and the police and fire departments, are the visible arms of protection. As each man's home is his castle, so shall the law be enforced to make that home a castle. There shall be no thieves or rioters or arsonists. Equally, there shall be none of the more insidious forms of outlawry that stamp the Bcarlet letter on the home's daughter or th searing mark of crime on the home's son. Men, living the communal lKe, may demand more than the enforcement of the primal laws of peace. Municipal practices, by theory if not always in application, vouchsafe him the conveniences of civilization the paved street, the sprinkled street, the street beautiful. So his community takes on the communal aspect, and he begins to enjoy the fruits of hi3 saving and the physical signs of his citizenship. He has home in the largest sense a thing which, however humble its setting, however simple its construc tion, represents the vital link in life. And the church! The expression of his aspiring soul, the answer to his questionings as to the Whencfe and the Thence! a visualized, con secrated spirit of good to smooth his ruffled soul and give him the courage to live for the unknowable here after. Church and school epitomize the higher citizenship each is educa tional; each is educative of the high er spirit; each represents the social means to make the oncoming genera tion better and nobler. Both the church and the school typify the law and their tenets are obedience obedience both to God made and to man-made law. Society is an organization it thrives or it festers according as the major tendency within It is good or evil. And it requires citizenship in action to realise its aspirations. The city is the sentient unit. Most of us live In cities. And we want them to be all that. In probable certainty of realization, we can make them clean, forward-looking.- character forming, beauty-building agencies. How then, Is that to be done! Not

by thinking these things, but by thinking them and then acting thesi by voting for the Man who shows the communal sense; who represents

(the law and the sense of obedience, and who, above all else, is not the any oi any one ui me perverting par tisan or private agencies which, heretofore, have defeated complete citi zenship. Indianapolis Star. MRS. PANKHURST. The editor of Harper's Weekly de clares that a stupid blunder was made in the attempt to slop Mrs. Pankhurst, the militant suffragist leader of England, from landing in the United States. The episode at Ellis Island is analyzed as follows: "Laws and regulations can never cover every case ,and they are in tended to be carried out by officials Intelligent enough not to apply re strictions and penalties to persons for whom they never were intended. fn our immigration rules, we have been particularly unfortunate. Undertaking to exclude the lower forms of labor from the Orient, we have fre quently created wholly needless annoyance for Chinese and Japanese students. The landing of Mrs. Pankhurst ought 'never to have been questioned for an instant. We happen to be among those who believe that the cause of woman suffrage in England was much forwarded by her up to about two years ago, and has been held back by her activities since, but, even If that belief la well founded, Mrs. Pankhurst's good or bad judgment has nothing whatever to do with the episode at Ellis Island. To treat her as if she belonged to criminal classes is rough and stupid. The problem of dealing' with her is for the English not an easy one, but in our case there is no problem at all. Mrs. Pankhurst did not come over to try to gt American women to burn empty buildings or to smash windows, but merely to explain why she was carrying on that kind of campaign in another country. If Mr. Haywood went to England to lecture on the methods of the I. W. W. in the United States, he certainly would not be interfered with, although if he undertook to stir up English working men to greater violence the authorities would very likely send him home." CHRISTMAS ON WAY. How near Christmas Is at hand and the need of preparing for it is that the shops are beginning to pack their shelves with Christmas goods. , An other sign is that Christmas gifts destined for officers and enlisted men in the army, navy and marine corps in the Philippines and the Island) of Guam, which have been pouring into the office of the depot quartermaster here for the past month, were forwarded to the islands today by Col. John T. Knight. The gifts came from all parts of the county by freight, express, mails and other possible means of transportation. Two years ago the Christmas transport did not stop at Guam, and it was necessary to postpone the Christmas festivities on the island for one month. This waa due to an epidemic of smallpox, on account of which the transport was not allowed to land its cargo of gifts. HOW TO TEST IT. Any reputable citizen may at any time test what is the police attitude of the women in his own district at least. All he has to do is to observe whether there is, in his own neighborhood, a place which is generally known to be the resort of vicious men and women and where the practice of vice has become something of a regu lar trade. Having so observed let him make personal complaint to the police officer of the district. If the nuisance is promptly abated, by raid or warning, then he can be assured that, for the time being at least, the police attitude is sincerely repressive. But if he meets with plausible argument that he may be mistaken, or insinuations that he may be animated by some. personal graudge, or is confronted with the maxims of a stiffly starched legalism, ending with the demand that he "get out a warrant," then he may be as sured that the local police are "graft ing" or that the word "go easy" has come down from some potent influ ence "higher up." The plain fact is that the police have, In law and In the fear of the criminal and semi-criminal of the processes of the law, most ample powers to close and keep closed every resort where vice is commercialized and organized into a regularly gain ful trade. And to accomplish this result it isn't at all necessary to bring people into court in large num bers or to fill the Jails. Well, says the Chicago Inter-Ocean, all that is necessary is for th superior police and governmental autnormes to take and noid a permanently intolerant attitude to vice, to make that attitude known, and to in sist that their subordinates maintain the same attitude. All the talk we

THE TIMES.

hear from cerain police officials and shallow-minded laymen Pbout the "difficulties of keeping the lid on" Is nonsense. The criminal and the semi:criminal and the habitually vicious are always in fear of the law. And when they know that the law is going to be enforced unless they amend their ways or disappear they speedily find other climates more salubrious. DESPISING HUMAN LIFE. The great danger In speeding mo tor-driven apparatus of the police or fire departments through crowded Main street has been forcibly Impressed upon the city by two unfortunate accidents during the past week. Springfield (Mass.) Republican. We have called attention to this matter several times and still the recklessness goes on. A man driving one of these machines acts as if he had the right to drive over anybody that stands in his way. What is human life to him? No more than a flying straw. "Get out of the ( road, you little brats of children, and you old woman, or I will run over you. Don't you see, I am running to a fire or answering the call of a policeman who is on the track of a chicken thief?" Is human life set at so low a value by public authority? Ohio State Journal.

It can safely be said that this knowledge, even If be had It, would have aided him little In inventing the phonograph. The phonograph Is mere ly a device to record and reproduce sounds accurately by means of the vi bration of a diaphragm of exceedingly thin metal, and it will reproduce discords quite as distinctly as It will the finest operatic music.

How many of the Chicago anarchists who participated in tho Haymarket riot were hanged T Four were banged, one committed suicide in prison, two were sentenced to imprisonment for life and one for fifteen years, and three were pardoned in 1893. What is tho average salary paid to librarians and library assistants? This question. Is too general to be an swered adequately here, what would be true In one locality would not be in another. In the larger cities the chief librarian of the principal library frequently receives a very handsome salary, often as high as $5,000 or $6,000 a year. His assistants receive from a few hundred annually up to $1,800 or $2,500. according to their branch of work and length of service. A good average for assistant librarians In cities would probably be from $800 to $1,200 a year. What was the. data of tho Haymarkot riot in Chicago, in which seven policemen were killed? May 4. 1886. What is the color, of a Scotch collie. and how is it marked? There are two varieties of Scotch collie, the rough haired variety and the smooth coated. The rough haired collie has a tapering muzzle, a heavy coat except on bead and legs, with mane and frill about neck very abundant. Color ranges from black and tan to tan and white or all white. The smooth coated collie has the same general characteristics, except that it has a dense, short, flat coat of good texture and varies In color and in its distribution more than the long coated one. What was the date of Pope Leo Xlll.'a death? Pope Leo XIII. died on July 20. 1903, at Home. When did Caruso make his first public appearance in this country? Nov. 23. 1903. the opening night of the 1903-4 season, when he sang the role of the duke In Verdi's "Rlgoletto," In the Metropolitan Opera House, New York city

Benjamin Franklin was never connected with any church. lie was burled in the graveyard of Christ church, Philadelphia. What is meant by a federal republio er a federal government as distinguished from ethers? The English word federal Is derived from the Latin foedus, league or compact; hence a federal republic or government is one composed of several states or governments bound or leagued together as one. The Mexican government is a federal government In the same sense that the government of the United States is because It comprises several state governments (twenty-seven in all) federated or bound together In a central government. What is the difference between astronomy and astrology? Astronomy treats in a scientific way of the constitution, motion and ascertained action of the heavenly bodies In accordance with established laws, and astrology professes to foretell or explain the events of human life through the alleged Influence of the different planets upon Individuals. One is based on science, the other on superstition. Who was it that said "Audacity, more audacity?" The saying Is attributed to Danton daring the French revolution. "De l'audace. encore de 1'audace, toujours de l'audace" audacity, more audacity, always audacity. What are the largest cities in Ireland, England and Scotland?
