THE HAMMOND DISTILLING Q O . DAILY CAPACITY 25,000 GALLONS

Leading Business Men Are to Meet Tomorrow Night to Discuss Amalgamation of North Township Cities Dinner Given.

Notices ver .mailed yesterday for a general membership dinner meeting of the members of the Kast Chicago Chamber of Commerce to be held at the diningrooms of the First Congregational church, on Magoun n venue, Friday evening'. Kverj member of the organization has doubtless done his duty 1n the matter Of attempting to select the best men to run our government for the next four years. But civic duty does not end with the election of the president of the I'nited States. It is now up o the progressive men of the city to turn attention to the needs of Kast Chicago and northern Lake county. There are some big problems literally crying out for solution. Take it for granted irrespective of your political views that the country lias been saved. Now, boost for your city! One of the big things that will be up for discussion tomorrow evening at the dinner will be whether or not Kast Chicago would be willing to enter into plans for an amalgamation of adjacent cities, maknig one of the largest industrial cities of this country and saving hundreds of thousands of dollars in the economy of one administration. It will be distinctly a local conference, with local men as speakers a meeting in which all may feel free to express themselves in regard to this issue. There is a growing sentiment in the various cities that might be involved in favor of an amalgamation, or at least in favor of an investigation of the possibilities of such amalgamation. What will be East Chicago's attitude when' this question arises? It is a momentous issue and every member of the Chamber should be present to assist in arriving at a wise conclusion. This question insofar as it affects East Chicago locally, the advantages and disadvantages accruing from such an arrangement will be thoroughly aired and it is expected that some warm arguments will develop. Every member of the Chamber every man that ever signed an application card to become a member of the Chamber, irrespective of his present standing is urged. to attend thf meeting at the Congregational dining parlors tomorrow night.

WHERE ARE 1000 GARY VOTERS ?

"What become of over 2,000 Gary voters who registered and yet didn't cast their ballots in the presidential election? The question Is puzzling the politicians of the steel .town, the county and the state. Gary registration was 9,428 at "closing time" on October 26; yet at the finishing of balloting on November 8 unofficial, but approximate returns, showed only 7,400 votes cast for the president in Gary. nig I.onn In 22nd. A terriffic loss was shown in the 22nd Gary precinct, heavily populated by negroes, were 445 registered, but where between 260 and 290 votes were cast. The precinct, usually heavily re. publican, polling place is at 17th avenue and Adams street. In the 10th (Kirk yard railway district) precinct, heavy for Wilson, a loss of nearly 100 votes was shown. However, many of the railroad men may have been out on their runs an dunable to get to the polls, in the 20th, 8th. 27th. 10th. 24th and 19th precincts losses ranged from 70 to 110. How Many Illegal? Some explain the failure to vote more heavily in the 22nd Gary because the negro vote is transitory. zThat th?re may have been many illegal registrations has been charged by both parties. To bring illegal registrations under federal scope voting must be done to complete a federal crime. Many are said to have been warned not to vote for fear of federal punishment, but neither side concedes that there could have been 2.000 Gary voters afraid to go to the polls becauss of illegal registration. What become of the 2,000 voters?

LAKE TO HAVE BIG 11IUSSEW Three Senators, Four Representatives, One Joint Representative.

Lake county will be well represented in the forthcoming session of the Indiana legislature. It will have one Joint senator, two senators, one joint .representative and four representatives In the' general assembly, which convenes in January. They are all republican. Instead of one joint member In the senate the county will have three looking after Its interests. Dwight M. Kinder of Gary ls holdover senator from Lake and Porter counties. Ex-Sheriff Thomas Grant of Lowell, and ex-Postmaster James Xejdl of Whiting, are the two new senators. Xew representatives are Edwin C. Davis of Crown Point. J. Glenn Harris of Gary, James I. Day of Hammond, Andrew H. Sambor of Indiana Harbor and Gary, and John Overmeyer of Kouts (Porter county), the- latter being joint representative from Lake and Porter counties. Heretofore Lake had but one joint senator and two representatives. It is expected that about one of the first bills the irew members will be asked to back will be one backed by Gary men demanding a court for Gary. The request may be for an additional court or the transfer of one of Hammond's three superior courts to Gary. In the event of the passage of the bill Lake county practically will have three county seats, for there will be courts of record at Gary, Hammond and" Crown Point, a situation that would be without parallel in America.

COUNTY CANVASS IS DONE (Continued from Fag One)

suits prove the democrats to have had a .superior organization in Gary than the republicans. Hammond the normally strong democratic city made a better showing than Gary coming across with about five hundred plurality for Hughes. Here it was purely a case of organization and the sentiment among the German-Americans. City Chairman T. Edwin Bell had an excellent staff of city workers. The boys who put the "pep" into the campaign was the Young Men's Republican Club. The republican wave was so strong that Mack Foland was carried with the tide against the Simon stream. The home

owners, tha businessmen and taxpayers in Hammond to whom Simon appealed on a platform of tax equality did not make a concerted effort in the campaign for Simon and thought they had fully rewarded him by going to the polls and splitting their ticket. It was a case of lack of organization as .shown by Simon's small Hammond lead of only 403 over Foland. Simon's friends looked for a Hammond lead of 1,600 and Foland conceded him a thousand. Foland carried Gary by 459. With the strong republican showing made in Hammond sentimental though it was. there is a lot of talk today for organizing an aggressive city campaign either under a republican or an independent ticket to scalp the democratic organization in the city hall. On the national tickets and the governorship, the deflections were so light as to be hardly worth mentioning. Goodrich led the republican ticket with 12,665 against Hughes' 12.571 who was the low republican in the group. WIN sOn was high in the group with 9,168 against Taggart's 8.1S2. Kern ran one vote behind Wilson. South of the Little Calumet river which is generally accepted as the grand division line between the city and the rural votes, the republicans polled 2,400 votes even for Hughes showing that tha bulk of the republican strength still is south of the Little Calumet. Gary could have offset that, but someone else will have to do the explaining. East Chicago camo across with its usual strong republican showing. Official tabulations were completed by County Clerk Herbert Wheaton and his staff this noon.

THE POLITICAL WORLD Id INDIANA Fro!tn TUB TXBCES' Own Zst. uapoliii Bureau.

TIMES Bl-RE.il, AT STATU CAPITAL. INDIANAPOLIS, IND., Nov. 9. One of the results of the election in Indiana is that the old Democratic machine, led by Senator Thomas Taggart, and a good senator. Mayor Bell and a few others, has gone to the scrap heap for good. Taggart has been defeated for senator, and Bell and his outfit have been discredited in Marlon county and through Maripn county in the

entire state by the complete routing

of the Democratic party at the polls. Taggart has reached the senatorship, thanks to the appointment by his satellite. Governor Ralston. But he could not put it over at the election this fall. There are no further politi

cal honors In store for Taggart. He cannot hope to be idected to any

highr office than that in which he is now serving by reason of appointment. Therefore, there is no reason to expect that he will feel the same degree in interest in the success of the Democratic party in the future that he has felt in the past, when the future held out something for him.

If Taggart retires at the end of his present term as Senator and devotes

his time to his business at French Lick, as it is generally suspected he will do.

it will mean that the Democratic out

fit will have to pull along some way without him in a commanding capacity. Who will take Taggart's place as the leader of the party in the state? Mayor Bell cannot do it, because he is politically discredited. And a careful observer, after looking over the field of Democratic leadership timber in the state, fails to find among all of the number a man of the right size and caliber to step in and assume the leadership of the party, That a new leader must spring up is an evident fact. If a new leader were to come from the better element of the party's ranks he would be certain to meet with the interference of the old machine, which would be slow to adopt modern political methods. And no one seems to be able to point to any independent or modern-ideaed Democrat in the state who would be willing to assume the task of attempting to put the party back on Us feet. Senator John W. Kern will be through with politics when he quits office as senator. Vice President Marshall probably will have had enough of the political game when he finishes his term. Therefore, it looks as if the Democrats will have no leadership in the state. With a Republican administration in the state house there will be no nice, 'large, juicy plums and jobs for the Democratic machine politicians, such as they have enjouted under Democratic administrations, and this will take much of the interest out of them as far as politics is concerned. When there is nothing in sight there will not be much to lure the politicians on to heavy efforts. There is no question but that .the Republicans will have a large majority In the House of Representatives at the coming session of the Legislature, but it seems that the Senate will be held by the Democrats, because of the number of holdover Democrats in that body. Already two candidates for speaker of the House have been heard of. One is Jesse Kschbach. of Kosciusko coun-

EAST TO DARKEN Yd GRAY HI You Can Bring Back Color and Lustre with Sage Tea and Sulphur.

When you darken your hair with Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it's done so naturally, so evenly. Preparing this mixture, though, at home is mussy and troublesome. For 50 cents you can buy at; any drug store the ready-to-use preparation, improved by the addition (f other ingredients, called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound." You just dampen a sponge or sofe brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morning all gray hair disappears, and, after another application or two. your hair becomes beautifully darkened, glossy and luxuriant. Gray, faded hair, though no disgrace, is a sign of old age, and as we all desire a youthful and attractive appearance, get busy at once with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound and look years younger. This ready-to-use preparation is a delightful toilet requisite and not a medicine. It is not intended for the cure, ' mitigation or prevention of disease.

county. Eschbach has been a member

of the 'House in the last several sessions, and has been the Republican floor - leader. He is one of the best

known Republicans in the state and an

experienced legislator, and it is ex

pected that he will have much support for his candidacy if he decides to

enter the race for the speakership

Kschbach has been chairman of the

Republican state speakers' bureau in

the last two campaigns. Duffey has been a leader in the good roads movement in Indiana, and a wide acquaintance throughout the state. This will be his first session as a member of the Legislature. It Is probable that other names will be mentioned for the speakership, but these are the only two mentioned up to this time. The fact is, the Democrats were taken entirely oft their feet by the manner in which the Republicans cleaned up in Indiana. .Notonly does this state give Hughes its fifteen electoral votes, but its elects two Republican ITnited States Senators, seven Republican congressmen sure and probably eleven out of the thirteen, leaving the Democrats only two; and the Republicans elect their entire state ticket from top to bottom and take control of the lower house of the. Legislature, the. branch in which all tax laws, revenue measures and appropriations measures originate. It was a clean up that reminded people of old times.

NEGROES ROB HARBOR MAN Two big negroes approached Martin Jopinski about 9:30 at the corner of Guthrie and 137th streets. Indiana Harbor, according to the latter's story and, asked for a match. As he reached in his pockets to comply With the request, one of the negroes thrust the barrel of a revolver In his face and ordered him to throw up his hands. Martin, thinking discretion the bet

ter part of valor, at once complied and one of the black men searched his pockets. Tnelr trouble was rewarded by finding deep down In Martin's jeans thirty-five cents. Japinnki could not give any adequate description of the robbers.

CONGRESS DIVIDED (Br l nltfd FreM.) NEW YORK, Nov. 9. A divided congress was forecasted by incomplete returns gathered by the United Press up to noon today. The returns tended to support republican claims that the house will be republican, although democratic leaders insisted the final count will show them still in control of the lower body. That the present democratic majority will be deeply cut however, is certain. Returns of the senate fight are nearer complete. Tney tend to show the democrats still control by a probable majority of twelve compared to their present majority of sixteen. The entire membership of the house was voted on. Estimates based on claims of state committees of both sides show anywhere from 210 to 220 democratic congressmen elected and from 218 to 220 republicans chosen. I . , .
