C T. U. w ill endorse their candidacy and use its lnrtu. once in their beJialf. I do not care to enter- into a newspaper controversy with Mrs. Conroy. On the contrary, keing a woman and having worked f-r suffrage I feol kindly to the candidacy o a -woman for office." Mrs. Grave-s mated that the questionnaires would be mailed within a Jew days t- the candidates for city fTlces'ia Hammond. Gary, East Clues and Whiting. The results of the canvas will pe made public The can41dates will go on record. $;ood, ba.l or Indifferent. "The chijrch.es liae been negligent anlf erjnitt-ed Sunday theaters, dances ana cabarets to tempt people away from places of worship In violation of th lair." Mrs. Graves said. "The desecration cf the Sabbath brings lists f dearly from accidents and brawlsIt is one of, tha nation's . greatest eit rs-Tag-ance this mad pursuit of pleasure on Sunday." MAS. COVROY'S orPO.ET. Vrt. 'Conroy's opponent on the reruoHcan ticket, "Walter E. Schrage. the present mayor, ss depending- upon his record cf achievement to win the noiminatiefi and re-election. Neither candidate ha ltsdulged in persona?;tie. Soth are well liked and rery much admired. There sjs a number of thing's aVout Whitlngf that are ideal. One Is' the

tinfatlmg prosperity the people and the city. Tanics may come and panics may go but they never leave a ripple in the calm surface of the lakeside city. Not since 18S5 when it started up h&a tha Whiting riant of the Standard Oil Company, the citj-'a main industry, known an id'.e day. The nearest It ever came to shutting down was n Armistice Day when the men didn't want to work. This steady influx of money through tha "big payroll of the crmpany plus good government put the city oh a high financial status. Whlt'.nj is the only city In the Calunet district that did not raise its tax levy during- the war. By reason, of a tremendous reserve in the treasury, Whiting- went through the trjir.g tlmei without a set-back. Mayor Schrage purchased tfve sites for the nitration plant, the athletic field, fie sewagx pumping- station, and the city hatl and paid for them out of the general fund without a bond issue. The alleys cf the city were paved, streets resurfaced and other InvproYements mads without a dollar's cost to the sreperty owners. Likewise the filtration plant was built. A ilO.000 judgment againat the city was paid from the general fund. THE KtVOR'S PROPOSAL. Mayor Schrage is bef;ro the people now with a proposition to have the eity ewn Its own electric lig-ht plant and this questions win in all probab.IUy be put to a referendum vote. The city is in a position to issue bonds --.r more than $o00,"00 and after tho .lune collection of ta.tes will be in even better financial condit ion. The access of the municipal waterworks i-.aa encouraged the mayor to consider ownership of an electric Hg-ht plant. ' The two old parties are in the field :or the primary election. While there ars contests or a roaojrity of tha republican nominations the ' democrats have not as yet assembled a complete ticket. Two of the repubuican candidates for :: cl-rk are Harry Powers and R. P. pringate, ex-service men. Powers is a merchant and Sprlnggate id employed by the Grasselli Chemical Co, John Sallapski. assistant oashie-r of the American Trust and Savings bank s the ether republican candidate fr cJerk. omen homex candidates. Tso- weunon are out for treasurer. One Is Mrs. Kditli Lengenham, an employe of the city clerk's office for thirteen years, and a republican. The other is Mrs. Edna Doolitlle. a democrat Mrs. Doelittle is a v.-idiw. The. judgeship is crowded. Five attorneys, S-Vhuyler Dwyer, Frank Due?an. Charles S..Perel. Thomas K. Cara-pja-eki and A M. Witko are the republican candidates. T-ho aldermanic field is not crowdrl The office of councilman only carries a salary oc $150 and few men can be induced to spend the nftsssary money tmake the, race for tho job, It is sometimes necessary for the partla to draft candidates.

an ex-service mart who enlisted ia the marines early in the war and. served for two years, the greater portion of the time in France. He is a Btlllman at the Standard Oil plant. Mr. Millar is superintendent of tUe acid department of the Standard Oil. and Mr. Kaminski is employed by the Standard Oil. For aldermen o? the various wards as usual a number of stronsr men are advancing their merits through tho means of the Democratic ticket. It will be remembered that in the la-et election the Democrats carried a majority of the common council. William E. Stoll In the first ward, an acknowledged vote getter, will seek to succeed himself, as will also Joseph Manchak in the fourth. Mt. Stoll is a labor foreman at the Standard Oil plant, and Mr. Manchak Is a plumbing contractor. Both are o!d residents. w'I and favorably known among the pioneers. The leaders feel confident of the re-election cf these men, both of whom are notably popular in their respective wards. In the second ward tiie ticket wil present another ex-s-erviee "man in the perscn of Alex Walsko, who also served throug-hout the trying months ct the' war in France, and ivho was a number of times severely wounded, his death having been once reported to hi3 relatives. . Ie is a modest and unassuming native American, with, a host of friends among the Hungarian, Slovak and Croatian speaking residents who form so large a percentage of this ward .and his announcement is counted highly fortunate for the ticket which ho represents. He is a boiler maker by trade and employed by the Standard Oil Co. As evidencing: the tendency of modern politics to attract the -more conservative element in citizenship, fiie Democrat? will present for considera

tion the name of Robert C. Curtis, a member of on of the oldest and mst highly respected families of the city, and one known anions' hi many friends as being of the h:s:he?t integrity and dependability. Mr. Curtis will seek nomination and election to the office of alderman of the third ward. He is employed as a siii'man at the Standard Oil plant.
