Knotts, former mayor of Hammond, and in the early days of Cary Ihc general manafter of the Cary Laml Company, hus returned from the session of the legislature with u. "mad on." Mr. Knotts who is president of the National Dunes Park association feels blue because the legislature wouldn't pass bills toward Eecurinfc a state park in the dunes or permitting the United States uravemment to condemn th land. What Was Done. There were two bills up. One allowed the incorporation of an association to acquire park lands. The other permitted any city, county, or the state or the United States to acquire park lands and condemn land for park purposes. Ry request Rep. Soythard oT Michigan City fathered both bills, bur later after hearing from Porter county constituents he was not so enthusiastic. They passed the hoi.e although Porter county landholders objected. In the senate Mr. Knotts said he did not find Senator Crnt enthusastic over the bills, but he was not unfriendly. Tie stated Senator Xedjl could not aid be-

as treasurer bv ;i martin of forty votes in a count tnialinn ni-.-r 5 300 will tile a contest, with thu vote in the 5th precinct as a bast.s larpely for his contention. It Is reported that the polls in this precinct were held open and voters permitted to enter the election room for ten or twelve minutes after the lt-pal closing hour. Rocco Georfio. who, was defeated in the tpird ward by . .awracaj by a margin of six votes will ask for a recount. Ia-.r- Malucz. who is Riven only four votes bus than John Tenkely in the fourth ward will alo ask for a recount. Inasmuch as there are only five precincts in the city, the first, second, third, twelfth and sixteenth, whejein there is a proper distribution of socond choic-1 votes, it is possible that recanvass will be. made on all of the votea in all of the remaining precincts. The election commissioners have not as yet computed their returns and will not he able to (rive out any ftgures until tomorrow niKht at the earliest. II. M. Royoe, one of the commissioners, was called to Illinois on urgent business yesterday and will not return until tor.ight. Distribution of second choice votes in the five precincts mentioned will begin early tomorrow morning. The second choice votes in these five precincts will have some effect upon the cily judtfe. inasmuch as there is a total of 1. of these votes to be distributed. On aldermen at lar;e there are 167 second choice votes to be distributed, and what the effect of this distribution will be is very difficult to predict. The second choice, votes would not have any effect in the first wcrd and j probably net in the second, inasmuch as j ther" were only twenty-five second choice- votes properly returned from the second ward. The second choice votes now evaildhle in the fifth ward will not affect the nomination of Carlson, neither will the second eh-ilc" votes in the seventh ward affect 'he nomination of Maxwell.
