ARE ANTI-BOLSHEVISTIC. Quite a change of opinion is becoming evident among laboring people since returned soldiers from Fiance have been working 6ide by side with them In shops, factories and counting rooms. An incident at a shipyard gate will illustrate the kind of propaganda that Is going on. "Go in through this gate." ordered a gatekeeper, calling to an employe who was starting to enter another passageway"W'at t'ell's matter with you," retorted the employe; "I've been working here a whole year now and I guesj I know which gate to go in at." "Yo.i've been working here a whole year, have you? Well, I wouldn't brag about it if I were you. You're an able-bodied young fellow. I've been working a year in France in Uncle Sam's uniform for $30 a month. Th less you boast about having been working here a year at shipyard wages the better chance you have to get somo standing " There was no room for argument. The young fellow went through the gate indicated by the ex-soldier. In this particular shipyard, more than four hundred

The sentiment of

doing a square day's work for the high pay reecived is growing as a consequence.

There fs only room for one flag in Lake county ar.d that is the Stars and Stripes. There is room for only one language and that is the language of the people of the United States. IS BOOZE RUNNING ENDED? There is a great deal of curiosity evinced among the

police authorities of the Calumet region as to just how much liquor blockade-running will be done in these parts after today. The traffic has been extremely heavy since a year ago last April and the bulk of the work has of course fallen on the Hammond police who, by the proximity of their bailiwick to the state line, have come in closer contact with booze-runners than any other police agency in the region, and probably confiscated more liquor than -all the others put together. Police will be glad when booze-running stops altogether. It is not a pleasant task for these men of the law to arrest all people found with whiskey in their possession. In the majority of cases the offender had a small quantity which It was plain was for personal use. More often it was a quart or two. In many cases of course, the police showed no mercy whatever, for they were convinced that the blockaderunners were agents for blind pigs and soft drink parlors and were making a business of outlawry. They threw this class into jiil without any conirunction whatever and the number they have captured is to their great credit as vigilant upholders of the law. Big hearted Captain Rimbach of Hammond, expressed the sentiment of the authorities in all the cities, "We were glad to nail the big fellows, but the misery of the little fellows with their couple of quarts whicn they wanted to have in the house for medicine was pitiful. We don't want to see any more of these weeping offenders haled into court and heavily fined which they had to borrow money to pay, and are glad it is all over." Whether of course It is all over remains to be seen. There is yet a lot of liquor In Illinois and much of It will find its way into Indiana and Michigan. Booze-

runners take- desperate chances as was seen in the case of the Indiana Harbor woman who, notwithstanding the fact that her husband is serving a six months' sentence for bringing whiskey in wholesale quantities into the state, went after an automobile load herself and was caught with the good3. It is not hard to figure out what Judge Anderson will do with her. Taken by and large, authorities in the Calumet region will be glad that the liquor traffic is doomed. They would not rejoice to hear that President Wilson had lifted the ban by a demobilization order, for if it is there is no question but what they will have their work all to do over again.

INFLUENZA AND TUBERCULOSIS. In one of the biggest municipal sanitariums in the country it is found that 50 per cent of the cases of tuberculosis treated since last January are due to the aftereffects of iauenza. There is no intention of alarming unduly any person who has had the "flu" and w-ho considers himself happily recovered. It should be soberly recognized, however, that this disease tends to leave its victims unusually susceptible to certain other diseases for a. considerable time after apparent recovery. Tuberculosis is perhaps the foremost of these. Medical men give warning that every person who has had a severe case of influenza s-hould be especially careful of his strength for months afterward, and should consult his family physician regularly so that if anv sign of tuberculosis or other ailment appears it may be checke-d at once. The patient owes it to the community no less thin to himself and his family. The American people have already suffered too much from the white plague. Thanks to enlightened and energetic measures, it was decreasing before thi3 epidemli swept over the country. It should not be allowed to increase now.

LIQUOR'S NEWS INTEREST PASSING. With the passing of the liquor traffic today newspapers will be deprived of what has perhaps been one of the most prolific sources of news the world has ever known. It will of course be some time yet when there will be no more news value to booze, at any rate as much as it has been in past generations. Liquor will soon pass out of the range of all human activity and, just as the drama and movies will find liquor banned for them as a Bource of interest, just so will the newspapers find that this great feeder of police stations will fade away. Liquor may no longer be bought legally unless a presidential proclamation comes into being. The last persons who may legally buy liquor on

American soil will be residents of Honolulu. Owing to the difference in time Honolulans may legally buy drinks five and one-half hours after the lid has gone on in the eastern part of the United States. Residents of the Pacific coast drank three houre longer than easterners, but by this time they are all dry.

HOW TIMES HAVE CHANGED. A member of the Morgan banking firm is chief ad viser of the American Peace Commission, and a prominent American financier says that as the war vas brought on by economic causes, it is bein settled with economic ends in view. American banker are invited to join a "consortium" with European financiers to undertake financial operations in China with government favor. It is generally believed that one of the chief purposes of the Versailles world constitution is to securo

satisfactory underwriting for certain big transactions in j home farms international finance. It develops that Wall Street finan-!

THE PROTECTIVE PRINCIPLE. The idea behind the protective principle is that we handle our own affairs in our own way, we do not allow ourselves to be exploited through the legerdemain of a foreign trade juggle based upon the principle" of taking as much as possible and giving as little as possible, rays the Boston Transcript. "We have developed our home market and have made it the best market in the world, and having built up our own industrial system we do not propose that it shall be knocked to pieces either by the frap-brained Bolsheviki or by ny financial juggle scheme

i of mill owners beyond the big waters. Taking our raw

I materials at prices fixed on the other side, turning them j into factured products at prices also fixed on the other I side was a grand scheme for the other fellow as long as

it worked, but, under fifty years of the Republican protective principle practically applied, the scheme ceased to work. The protective principle lifted the farm industries as well as other branches of Industrialism. The expanded home market was not only the best of all farm products markets under ante-bellum conditions, but the only surely dependable market for the products of the

cial interests have had complete copies of the peace

THE government is planning to extend the air-mail

How times have changed since Pro-! routes If this thing keeps up, after a while we can have fes.or Wilson wrote his book full of resounding periods j a letter delivered the same week it is mailed, telling how the government was under the domination I

of the big interests and how. now that the new freedom was turned on, things were going to be done in a different way. In this connection let it be recalled that according to the income tax reports twice as many millionaires have been developed in this country since Presi

dent Wilson was inaugurated than during the whole history of this country preceding March 4, 1913." without much increase in national productive capacity; in other words these new fortunes and the vast increase of many old fortunes is the result of speculative rather than productive activity.

THE war department has found that negro tmopers are healthier than white ones. That doesn't seem to square with former reports that the negro race in America was doomed to disappear because of the high death rate.

LAST Saturday's doings WE'LL say that she's going to suspect something. SOME children are SO old-fashioned they even obey their parents. .

If you could look at the text books of Arthur T. Knoerzer. son of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Knoerzt-r. TO Clinton st , Hammond, when h was a pupil at St. Joseph's Paro.ichial school and later at Champion College Pra'rie du Chien. Wisconsin, you would find them liter

ally littered with drawings. Mr. Knoerzer. who Is sales correspondent at the Champion Potato Machinery Co. is going to embrace cartooning as a r-erlous profession. The above is an example of the fact that Mr. Knoerzei has Ideas and execution. It is crude

in spots but very promising and ilr. Knoerzer has been assured that he has real talent. In the meantime McCutch," Brigffs and Tad are his Idols, though he himself does not go in for comics, but believes cartooning has a real serious mission.

ITALY VISITED BY MANY QUAKES I INTERNATIONAL NCW3 5ERVICEJ ROME. Italy. Jur.e 3. A series of violent earthquake shocks rocked the Compartimento of Tuscany Sunday and did damapre at Florence and leveled several villages between Florence

and Bologna. Selegraphic communication between Rome and the stricken districts has been interrupted and only meagre reports have reached here. The latest estimates axe that about 150 lives were lost. The shocks were felt at Venice, more than 100 miles away, but were not ob

served in Rome, which is about the same distance south of Florence. The greatest loss r-f life was reported at Vechhia, where 100 persons: are said to have been killed and 2.000 rendered homeless. At Vicchiia twenty more victim e are reported. There were numerous victims at Nungello where all the houses collapsed.
