The attention of the world is centered just now on the Adriatic seaport of Flume. The Italian peace delegratea have quit the conference because their demands that this city be piven to Italy have not been granted. President Wilson has stated positively that he will not yield to their demands. One of two developments is expected soon it is thought. Either the present delegates will return with new instructions from their government or new representatives will be chosen.

TAKING THE BULL BY THE HORNS.

Tbe firm and unalterable stand taken by Mayor Mc-j Cormack of East Chicago, Mayor Hodges of Gary, Coun-1

ty Sheriff Lewis Barnes in regard to bolshevists and bolshevism, as well as the other isms will do much to clear the air of unrest and it certainly will give this gcniry an opportunity of knowing how they stand with the people of Lake County. Now if Mayor Brown of Hammond .and Mayor Schrage of Whiting will follow suit that will make it unanimous. Every police chief in the region should be

ITALIAN HYSTERIA. In all the Italian comment on the controversy at Paris there is an incredible ignoring of the real points at issue. This is true alike of the public statement of Premier Orlando and the editorials of the Italian newspapers. There is a vast amount of bluster about Italy "ascend ing from the abyss of misfortunes to the radiant crest of most glorious victory;" of the Italians "demanding with

bolshevists. They would not be permitted to either meet or talk in public. The theory of bol?hevism is against law and order. We don't want any of it in Lake County. A county of patriots who bought over six million dollars worth of Victory Liberty Loan Bonds and is still buying is no place far a scintilla of bolshevism. Put the kibosh on the red flag. Vp with the Stars and Stripes. That's the Rag and the only flag for Lake County. This is no place for foreigners of the red flag type, and the dispicable doctrines that they preach. This is America. The land of law and order. If they don't like it make them get out of it.

CLEAN 'EM UP! The- more you look at the Mexican situation from the standpoint of our national welfare, the more certain it becomes that under no circumstances should any league of nations, treaty or anything else prevent us from dealing with thi bunch of outlaws just as we think necessary, whenever we think it necessary. The ooner the better.

THE NEW JOURNALISM. It is th duty of the prs3 to lead and not to follow, to form public opinion, rather than to reflect It- Such an ideal, however, involves more than is apparent at first sight. That is why those responsible for the press frequently choose the easier rather than the better partThey remember that the mob which shouted "Hosanna!" on the Bethany road, within a week was yelling, "Crucify him!" on the Pavement. Therefore they conclude, like His Grace th Noble Duke of Plaza-Toro. that it is less exciting, whpn there is fighting to be done, to do your own leading from behind, in other words, to reflect opinion rather than to form it. As a matter of fact, hQwever, such people are helping to form' public opinion Inasmuch as they are assisting in crystallizing it In all its less worthy aspects. They call it, "Giving the public what it wants," and Mr. Arnold Bennett has satirized this In a comedy, of delightful wit and humor, called "What th Public Wants." Now, what the public wants Is by no means necessarily what is host for it, nor is it by any manner of means certain that it knows what it wants- There are times when the greatest patriotism a paper can manifest is reticence, theer are other moments when reticence is only a synonym for cowardice. A paper, therefore, living in the full blaze of the world's limelight, must follow closely in the. footsteps of Principle if It la to become a leader, and not remain a ihto echo of human likes and dislikes, prejudices and passions. It must, in short, give the public not what it thinks it wants, not what It imagines will brine: to itself advertisement and circulation, but what Principle demand. Then all other things, that are right, shall be added unto it. Christian Science Monitor.

heroic sacrifices and victories." There is no mention of the fact that Italy last year accepted the new set of allied principles condemning secret treaties and offering all nations self determination and access to the sea. There is no mention of the fact

J that Fiume was not even promised to Italy by the secret j Pact of London, but promised to Croatia. There is no

j mention of the fact that by that same treaty Italy was

to receive only a portion of the Dalmatian islands and coast. There is no mention of the fact that while the little seaport town of Fiume proper has about 24,Ooo Italians to 16.000 Slavs, the suburbs that inevitably go with it are preponderantly Slav, and that, possession by Italy would give Italy authority over 100,000 Slavs to 30.000 Italians. There is no mention of the fact that. Dalmatia contains 600,000 Slavs to 18,000 Italians. There is no mention of the fact that the great enemy, Austria-Hungary, against whom it was natural that Italy should want to erect defenses, no longer exists; that Italy has already got more thsn she went to war for; that if she has her way now, Jugoslavia, the new republic associated with the Allies, on terms approved by Italy herself, will be shut, off entirely from the sea and rendered econmically helpless. All glittprmg generalities, but no logic, no reason, no sense! Nothing but wild excitement over a program "rialistic expansion. That program i.- contrary to the previously declared purposes of Italy herself. It would make the Allies' idealistic professions mere lies. It is comparable to the purpose and spirit with which Prussia launched this war. False leadership has imposed it on the Italian people, always emotional and impressionable, until it seems to have become a "fixed idea," a st njptom of national hy;tria which lately has seemed to verge on national insanity. The hysteria will doubtless calm down in time. Put manwhil0 if creates one of the strangest and most troublesome episodes of the world war.

ABE ON SECOND MARRIAGES. Somebody sent the genial Abe Martin an inquiry as to whether he believed in second marriages or not and In his usually quaint way Abe said that he did- He even bplifves in a third, fourth or fifth, or until a woman gets what's coming to her. Abe went on to say that, "If men kin jump from pillar C post till they git what suits 'em

SCHOOL HOUSES FOR DANCE HALLS. At three school houses in Cleveland, community dances have been held for rjuit a while. A small fee l charged, which helps to pay for extra light, janitor service and music, and also serves as a check upon the disturbing element which will seldom pay for the privilege of annoying others. The dances are very successful and are to be continued through at least a part of the summer. Pupils and their parents come to the schools, and also people in the neighborhood having no especial interest in the schools. The use of the school house for community dancing is but. one of ih many uses to which school? should be put for the benefit of th public. It has too long been the habit to use these expensive buildings for only such portion of the day and year as are demanded by actual school session?- Most of them, by virtue of their location, their construction and th fact that they are centers of public interest to no small degroe, are especially fitted for community use. Almost every effort made to use them thus is successful beyond the widest hopes of those who pioneer in the attempt.
