BARGAINS FOR THE BARGAIN HUNTERS. With the housing situation so acute in Hammond the coming sale of the 120 houses erected dining wartime by the U. S. Housing Corporation fchould attract the notice of those householders who are looking for bargains in houses. It costs inquirers nothing to look into the proposition. Here are over a hundred houses which cost the government over a million dollars, selling at 1150.000 over half a million. In other words, these houses are selling at all the way from one to three thousand dollars less than they erst to build. If they were selling at cost price they would be worth the notice of prospective buyers, but at such a reduction from cost the buildings ought to be and will be snapped up in hurry. This is not an advertisement for the selling agent, it is merely a guide post to the family wanting a good, substantial houae. The. Hock Island I. S. Housing proposition sold out in a few days and so will the Hammond proposition. It is first tome Erst served. There will be buyers present from every city in the regie n next Saturday judging by fhe inquiries received. The terms are exceptionally easy and now is the time to get busy. 'With the big demand for houses. th- 100 plus buildings ought to bell like sugar at ten cents a pound.

HIRAM THE HEFTY. We arc not for Hiram Johnson for president. We do not think he would or should be elected. Rut we can not forego paying a Iribute to Hiram Johnson and his methods of personal exploitation, says the Cincinnati Times. " The present campaign for the republican nomination would not be the same without. Senator Johnson. That much even his enemies will admit. He is certainly a budgecn that knows no brother. So, instead of a campaign of pleasantries or dignified exchanges of views, the preliminary campaign within the republican party has become a battle royal, with the Senator from California swatting the entire field. It was Mr. Hoover's refusal formally to enter this battle royal that aroused Senator Johnson s ire a few days ago. So the senator berated Mr. Hoover for not coming within swatting distance. It was an invitation as well as a threat, and it evidently did its work. Mr. Hoover is now down in the pit with Senator Johnson. Senator Harding. Governor Lowden, Gen. Wood and all the other perpsiring aspirants, giving and taking and cuffing and kicking in the great fight which has over 100.000,000 highly interested spectators. 'Senator Johnson probably will be among the first of the participants to go down and out. But when his form is carried from the ring a certain amount of deference will be paid it. He set the pace, and by violating the amenities made the rules of the game. I.ike Napoleon, he made his opponents throw away their books of tactics, even if, unlike Napoleon, he "saw stars" instead of the sun of Austerlitz."

STABILIZING THE MARKET. The department stores which are making an obviously sincere attempt to stabilize the retail market for clothing, domestics and house wares are to be congratulated. The character of their advertising suggests integrity, says the South Fiend Tribune. The beneficial effect of their campaign on the wholesale markets will be shared by all retail stores and will lend to more satisfactory trade conditions. Sensible, quiet people of the kind whose regular patronage is most desired by the merchants will do what they can to assist by con-

A MAN'S HOME HIS CASTLE.

While as long as prohibition is the law it must be enforced and reasonable latitude allowed for searching where there is reason to believe that illicit manufacture or traffic is going cn, it remains that there must be no stretching of this to invasion of private residences with

out following precisely the procedure prescribed by law.

Commenting on a case in Michigan, where the real of prohibition agents was alleged to have led them to

search a private basement without a warrant, a federal

judge said: "A revenue agent cculd never invade my

onie without a search warrant, unless I should give him permission." That states the American position that a man's home is his castle. The positio'n of the judge as

to his home is only an expression of the right of the

uuumicM iiu.eu in nis nome. mere must be no "fcearch invasions" of private residences without war

rants or permission of the occupants.

IN'INCRF-ASING their production to three times

what is was a year ago, the French seem to place some

reliance still in the old-fashioned idea that work is nec

essary.

CANADIANS object because their dollar is quoted at about 91 cents. Why should they be sore when we figure that our dollar is worth about 50 cents?

WHETHER IT IS cheaper to move than to pay rent is no longer a debatable question. In these days neither is cheap.

If yevu own a Ford, Chevrolet, Dort, Maxwell or any other car using 30x3-, 30x3Vi-, or 31x4-inch tires, you can well take advantage of the high relative value built into all Goodyear Tires. You can well do so because you can secure in the smaller Goodyear Tires the results of such skill and care as have made Goodyear Tires the preferred equipment on the highest priced automobiles of the day. You can well do so because these smaller Goodyear Tires are easy to obtain, being produced at the rate of approximately 20,000 a day, and because their first cost usually is as low or lower than that of other tires in the same types and sizes. Go to the nearest Goodyear Service Station Dealer for these tires, and for Goodyear Heavy Tourist Tubes. He supplies many other local owners of the smaller cars.
