THE CYNOSURE, Like any other citizen of Gary Mayor-elect Johnson realizes that the eyes of the whole state especially will be upon his administration. And there will be widespread interest ex hlblted elsewhere. For a long time it has been said that the model city has been In need of a reform administraton. The old regime is to go and the new one will shortly take its place. If Mayor Knotts was closely watched for mistakes Mayor Johnson will be the object of closer scrutiny. No doubt he is giving serious attention to the business of selecting efficient department beads and employes for hs appointments in this connection will be a pretty definite criterion of the policy of the new government. Gary was founded as a model eity and the interest taken In it Is international. Cities twenty times its size do not command so much attention as this experiment of the twentieth century and the new mayor indeed has a task that is a man's job. NEW Jersey women may be mod cstly dresed in styles fifteen years behind the times. But New York has a lot more population. THE public announcement that Ortie McManlgal Is going to South America may be intended to deceive any interested in his whereabouts. ADVERSE PUBLICITY. For a large and influential news paper the Washington Times makes a very Billy break. It publishes a list of those who have subscribed to fund to bring conventions to the capital and then wants to know what would be the matter with printing the names of those who haven't sub scribed. Of course, such a proceeding would be foolish. In the first place, it would savor too much of blackmail. Many persons would consider a request for money under such circumstances as a threat that If they did not contribute they would be held up to public ridicule through the publication of their names in the li3t of non-givers. And certainly no newspaper wants to leave the impression that it does! anything through blackmail, even though the ends may be the most laudable. Besides, if it came to a question of giving unfavorable publicity, no newspaper is big enough to Include all of those who have earned that kind of Dubliclty. Every newspaper xnows quite enough which it might publish, detrimental to people, to fill Its columns. The people who suppose that a paper prints everything it knows are very much mistaken, The!

Indeed. it may be said that the successful editor Is the one who knows what not to print. Then, a publication of a list of non-givers might do injustice to many people, and above all things a newspaper should not do injustice to any one. No man is a Judge of who should give and when he should give Persons whom the public may believe to be able to contribute to every cause, but who refuse to do so, may have excellent reasons for so doing. No one knows the obligations of the other fellow nor his charities. There are people who go through this old world with a reputation for giving never a penny to worthy causes and yet who have ther private charities which actually keep "them In a state of straitened circumstances. There are supposedly rich people who have obligations which keep their noses to the grindstone. So it might happen that the publication of a certain person's name In a list of nongivers would be a serious injustice to that person. MRS. Pankhurst will need to col lect many American dollars to hire Englishmen to engage, in the haz ardous business of bearing arms against the crown. JOHN Lind is still the elusive little pea In the Mexican shell game. A KEYSTONE APOLOGUE. An instructive apologue worthy of Aesop or LaFontaine came to The Sun yesterday from the Pennsylvania village of Sheffleld-on-Tlonesta. In the bosky dells of Sugar Run a farmer saw two strapping athletic black bears fighting .tooth and claw, near a hollow tree trunk dopslcal with honey. The fur flew. The ursine cannibals snapped great collops fro meach other's bodies. Growl, tear, fight till the last clawed bear expires. Bear two kills bear one and then sprawls over him and dies The farmer comes chuckling from behind a tree of vantage and takes the honey. Respectfilly dedicated to Republi cans and Progressives. New York Sun. PRETTY soon it won't be too early to do your Christmas shopping. IF the income tax 1s to be collected irom its source, will there have to be a double rakeoff in every real poker game? INDIA IS WATCHING. Continuance of the Liberal govern ment in power in England will ulti mately mean home rule in Ireland There is every indication that this will bring a rebellon in the north as the Ulsterites will not submit to the Catholic domination of the stronger south. Rebellion is treason and Eng lish troops will be ordered to quell it but whether all will obey is another quetsion. This is not the only problem that the London government has on its hands now; for an Ulster rebellion, the inevitable resignation of many I army officers and the refusal of some troops to carry out orders will have

SEEING that the original Wilson

man in Illinois got an apointment for only one year what chances have the patriots got who were one or two million behind the original man? Here we must pause In making jestful comment on the doings on the stage of life to record the passing of one. who for ninety years took part In its fitful drama. On Saturday the Rev. Timothy H. Ball died in Alabama. It was in the early thirties of the last century that the little minister came to these parts. His people settled at City West and hi death wipes out the last survivor of that community in the sand dunes, once the rival of Chicago and Michigan City for supremacy In the west. This man saw City "West sink down, forgotten; he sympathized with the other rival In its seventy-five years of disappointment; and from nearby he saw the birth and growth' of one of the world's greatest cities. Timothy Ball has left us in book form the early history of this part of Indiana. He was a spectator of that of which he wrote: for history here only began when he and other pioneers arrived. It was he who predicted years ago that these Bllent marshes and barren dunes would one day become a great Industrial center. During the span of Timothy Ball's life the world has gone throug hwonderful changes. It was his lot to witness a transformation that the people of no other age saw. The world has grown better In that time. And Timothy Ball all his life helped to make It better. CHARLES MURPHY, the boss may have fallen but Tammany our little its effect in King George's African j

India. This oriental empire is ever a potential place of revolution and a widespread uprising would wipe out the 75,000 white troops and their Indian allies who keep 300,000,000 in check. Then God help the Eng lish. If civil war ensues in Ulster the world Is more than likely to hear grave rumblings from India. IT must make Boss Murphy of New York feel really annoyed when he thinks of how easy Huerta got away with It. ? WHAT HE DID. Well the defeated ones are certain ly pussy-footing it after jobs. Lots of persons often wonder what becomes of defeated candidates after election. Wre seem to have got on t ne iracK or one inrougn tne ivansas ; City Star, which says: "Old Man: Blowloud Is always telling, about " " back East and how the people used to thrust all kinds of honors upon him. I saw a man the other who was raised with Blowloud and knew all about him. He told me the Only job the old liar ever held back there was extra janitor at the schoolhouse during part of one unusually cold winter." AS a bit of belated campaign news it may be well to mention that Col onel Roosevelt seems to be running strong in South America. WHAT'S THE ANSWER T Up to this hour Mayor-elect Bell of Indianapolis has not recived a congratulatory telegram from President Wilson. Who can name an Indiana Democratic mayor-elect who has been so favored? Princeton Clarion-News. Sure we can. There are the mayors of Lafayette, Gary, Elkhart, South Bend, Whiting, Rensselaer, Laporte, Mishawaka, Michigan City, Valparaiso, Marion, Richmond, Vincennes. They all got telegrams from Woodrow. THE NECESSARY THINGS. A magistrate has decided that bed, a sheet, a piano stool and towel are "sleeping quarters," not residence" entitling a man to a vote.

The latest and most useful novelty in the motorcycle line has just made its appearance in England. It is a three-wheeled motorcycl with side carriage wherein two persona. may sit comfortably. The top of the side car is collapsible. The cycle is equipped with an eijht-hegefpower water-cooled motor. The diminutive size of the whole car is what will appeal to thoaa whe hav little space, yet wish for something larger than the ordinarymotorcycle. As tire poor man's car, this will probably fill a long-left want.

Heart io Hear! Talks Br CHARLES N. LURJE THEY WANT TO BE BRAKES. Every one who knows anything about the world knows that it moves in an elliptical orbit around the sun. The path of the world has been calculated with nice exactitude by the astronomers. Of course way, way back In the mental woods there are folks who are so far behind that they still think the sun revolves around the earth. But they do not count Neither do those who think that the world moves, but that its progress is In a straight line forward, and that they can retard it by getting In the way. If you are one of these, step aside, lest the world run over you. Of snch Is the man in a southern state who would not pay his share of the increased taxes demanded by his county for a new schoolhouse. He went in the night and applied the torch to the building. Foolish man! The school will be rebuilt, despite his opposition, and the children of his county will have the benefit of newer and better quarters in which to study. Once there was a governor of Vir ginia in the old colonial days who said. referring to the colony: "Thank God, there are no free schools nor printing presses, and I hope there will be none for a hundred years, for learning has brought disobedience and heresy and sects into the world, and printing has divulged these and other libels." He was a rare old fossil, wasn't he? The world moved on and past him. even in his own day, for the planters of Virginia resented his bigoted, narrow minded views and had the king recall him. Even in that day, when the light of learning had not shed Its rays very far, he was too far out in the darkness for his fellow Virginians. It is encouraging to observe that bis latter day follower, the southern man who burned the schoolhouse, is one of a very small minority In his own community, and prompt Jailing followed his deed. The opponents of "book learning,' once common, are now scarce. Even those who themselves have derived little or no benefit from the teachings of the ages, crystallized in books, admit that for others the written word has merits. But there are other directions in which the mind of the nonprogressive man moves. He will not see or admit the merit of new trends of thought. he will not move his lumbering mental wagon from the ruts in the road. And the automobile of progress passes him and leaves him hopelessly in the rear. ashamed to dump ashes, etc, on top of what is already there. This trtate of affairs does seem most unnecessary in a city the slie of Ham mond, which certainly should be abia to maintain a force sufficient to han dle such matters in a way that will not be a positive disgrace to the city. If entirely consistent, it might he well to- publish some such article as the above, and in this way bring the matter forcibly to the attention of those interested. Yours very truly, TAXPAYER.
