They point to the fact that if it had not been for North township Lake county would have gone democratic, and if the result In the state is as close as It Is expected to be North township may have carried Indiana for Goodrich, New and Watson. It is safe to pay that the light is dawning in Gary for the republican party. It will shake off the blow and bluster bunch and with new leaders and a reorganization, the party will do something else besides brag. There are hundreds of republicans In Gary who realize this and stand ready to enlist under the banner of a real leader.

TO THE EAST OF US. American newspapers have given space quite in proportion to the importance of the event in telling of the new ministry in Japan, particularly of its head. Premier Terauchi. And with the coming of the aggressive military leaders into power those wtfo have made a study of American and Japanese relations view with concern flhe passing of Premier Okuma. Japan's new ministry and what it moans is summed up in the first paragraph of Tokio correspondence to the New York Evening Post. The write, reiterates what trained observers of Japanese politics have been telling us: "The formation of a Terauchi ministry in Tokio may be taken a the first definite move in Japan's, challenge to the world. It is a challenge of defiance only in so far as it asserts Japan's right to decide her own policies aftd shape her own destiny independently of western nations. Hitherto her policies and plans have been hampered and hindered, by alleged over-deference to Occidental connections. It was hoped that the great war in Europe, to which Japan has been lending aid, would have done something towards freeing the nation from awkward and entangling obligations. In this hope Japan has so far been disappointed." It boded no good for tjie Occident when Premier Okuma retired. Long in the service of the emperor the old statesman had a. wide knowledge of relations with western nations. He seemed to have a capable and peculiar understanding of American and British policies, of their people and institutions. Unfortunately Marquis Okuma did not belong to the two great clans that mould Nipponese government and the nation's policies, and as his cabinet cVlaguas, according to the Tokio correspondent, were of the commercial classes they had set in opposition to them the military faction and the people in general. Another element in Japan a menace to us the jingoes, forced the 1915 demands on China, an action that eventually led to the downfall of the Okuma cabinet, for the move to rape China was in direct contradiction to the Okuma dealings with the great powers. When it came to a new premier Count Terauchi. soldier and bureaucra, the man who relentlessly forced Japanese rule ort Korea, came into power. Whether Terauchi and har cabinet can last remains to be seen, but that J;ipan will assume a more "cocky" attitude Is to be judged not only from his accession to power, but by his recent statements. Not long ago THE TIMES commented on the rapid growth of the Japanese population. Already crowded at home the empire finds little relief in Korea and Manchuria. The two Americas Canada as well and Australia give promise of more freedom if Japan can attain it. What she will do, now that an sssertative power is In authority, creates a situation of portentous possibilities.

OLIVER OPTIC.

The New York World editorializes entertainingly on certain gentlemen, vho call themselves Fossils. Retaining their boyhood of forty years ago, they still appreciate Oliver Optic and propose to erect a memorial in his honor. "Onward and Upward," "Young America Abroad" and a whole host of other clean books delighted the juvenile mind of a bygone day. It wa3 also the day of Henty, of Verne, of Alger, of Marryat; the day before the aeroplane, boy scouts and the wireless intruded into the boyish literature of the present era. The boys of forty years ago have the good wishes and support of those of twenty and thirty years ago who were disables of Oliver Optic, otherwise William Taylor Adams. Along with "Treasure Island," "Swiss Family Robinson" and the undying "Robinson Crusoe" the clean and interesting works of Oliver Optic brought pleasure and instruction to hundreds of thousands of young Americans. It is too bad they are not more widely read in tftis day.

A BUBBLE BURSTS, Gary has tumbled' from her position as the republican stronghold of Lake county and state republican leaders, who were led to expect such great things from the Johnson machine, are recalling the bursting of the Johnson-for-governor bubble early in the year, and have come to the conclusion that Gary is a flivver as far as being a republican center is concerned. Bombastic news had been sent to Indianapolis from Gary about the big things the Gary republican machine was going to do. Of course they didn't pan out. The republicans carried Gary with a meagre 150 votes despite a registration of nearly ten thousand. Lake county republican leaders, especially In East Chicago and Hammond, are not at all backward in expressing their opinion about the Gary republican machine led by the Johnson-Carr-Davis coterie, strong on brag and bluff but weak on results. ,

MAY BE HEARD FROM AGAIN. Says the Youngstown Telegram: "The Akron board of education has voted against adopting a modified form of the Gary school plan. The adverse decision can be attributed probably to the objection of the schools superintendent who is uncompromisingly op;osed to the change, holding that Akron schools rank high and no new system is -needed. "The Gary plan, on the other hand, has the support of Akron women who have just as much at stake in th schools as the men hve and are probably more deeply interested in the way they are conducted. In support of their claims a woman speaker who has spent months in the Gary schools enthusiastically endorsed their demands. It. helps develop the children by mixing work and play, she says, and brings greater results without increased cost. In one Gary school to which Phe referred to seventeen teachers in twelve rooms are doing the work that would have made necessary twentyone teachers in eighteen rooms under the old system. "Yet Akron proposes to go ahead and spend a half million dollars on schools that will care only temporarily for the Increasing number of pupils. Next year there will be more to build in Akron unless woman there exercises her prerogative of having the last word."

IF THK paper shortage keeps on growing we may have to extend the term of the incoming president for an extra four years with a view of saving bal'.ots.

THE more that we figure tne baby will be voting five presidential elections hence the more do we realize that we are beginning to get old.

OUTLOOK is that our best restaurants will soon be charging for the potatoes and serving the meat as a side dish.

AFTER having been assigned to cover election headquarters on election night, where vre had to sit up all night and record returns in an atmosphere of c'neap tobacco smoke, do you wonder that we are demanding that congress provide for a six-year presidential term?
