EAST CHICAGO HAS 88.3 PER CENT MORE THAN 10 YEARS AGO
East Chicago, not to be outdone by her progressive neighbor, the city of Gary, show! a rate of growth for the past decade that is equal to 88.3 per cent population statistics for the past week, released at Washington, show. The 1920 figures credit East Chicago with 35,967 Inhabitants, an increase from 16.869. Terre Haute's growth has not been sensational, but the census figures announced last week show that the city on the Wabash is going steadily forward. The new census credits Terre Haute with 65.914 growth since 1910 of 13.3 per cent. Pittsburgh, Pa., the gerat industrial center must be satisfied with a count of 588.193, though Pittsburghers for a long time have been boasting of a population around 625,000. Up to May 1 the Bureau of the Census had announced the population of 713 cities and towns, the aggregate population of these places being 14,201,750, The list includes thirtyseven places which were not in existence as separate communities as far back as 1910; but as regards 6676 places comparable figures are available for the censusrs of 1900, 1910 and 1920. The population of these places increased from 8,594,103 and 1900 to 11,123,249 in 1910 and to 13,880,702 in 1029. This shows an increase of 2.529,146 or 29.4 per cent from 1900 to 1910 and of 2,757.453 or 24.8 per cent from 1910 to 1920. Week's Statistics. City. 1920. 1910. Terre Haute.

Ribbons and Flags Are Boosted for Mother's Day Miss Anna Jarvis, of Philadelphia, president of the Mothers' Day International association, declared Tuesday that flowers should be dispensed with, and that American flags be used instead, to celebrate Mother's day this year. She stated that last year white carnations sold as high as $1 apiece in Washington. It was the suggestion of a local man Tuesday, that white ribbon be worn, as It will still preserve the idea of purity and at the same time combat the excessive cost of flowers. Observance of Mother's Day will be a costly affair If flowers are used, according to officials of local flower shops. For white or pink carnations, the customary price of $1.50 a dozen or lower, will not hold good. One flower shop will sell its carnations at 13.00 a dozen, and another reported that as soon as the supply now on hand was exhausted, the price would have to be $2.40. When asked why the sudden rise, both laid the blame on the wholesalers.

1828 Andrew Jackson elected. Death of his wife. 1829 Inaugurated seventh President, aged 61.
RACHEL DONALDSON ROBARDS, WIFE OF ANDREW JACKSON
Jackson's election to the presidency i
almost deserved to be called the third American revolution. The first in 1776 left the country still under the rule of the colonial aristocracy, which, though, liberty loving, distrusted the republic and hated a democracy. The Jeffersonian revolution of 180"O called the masses into the court of public opinion, but the old governing class remained in exclusive possession of the offices everywhere from president to selectman. The Jackson Revolution of 1S23, changing the name of the dominant party from Republican to Democratic, threw open to all the doors of the government, and admitted Tom, Dick and Harry indiscriminately to the sacred precincts of public honor and political power. The change logically came in the course of the nation's growth. For now there were eight or nine new states on the western frontier, where there was no aristocracy of birth or wealth, and where men were starting

an and the poor farmer rose up in town meeting to challenge the squire and the parson.
Jackson really was the first president to be popularly chosen. His was
pie needed little and asked nothing from their government in Jackson's day. Having no new measures to propose, his followers gratified their sense of power chiefly by turning out
the old office-holding caste and by iristalllng in the seats of the mighty new men of their own sort. Straightaway our politics degenerated into furious and often meaningless struggle between the ins and outs, an evil from which we have yet to recover. In the passion of the hour for punishing enemies and rewarding friends Jackson himself pushed the spirit of favoritism to an absurd extreme in his championship of Peggy O'Neal. Long before this gay and imprudent daughter of a Washington tavern keeper became the bride of the Secretary of War, Gen. Eaton, she had been the
Get Together!" Is Call
To Alumni of Purdue Purposing to organise and elect officers for a permanent Purdue Alumni association, in accordance with a statewide drive, Purdue university graduates will gather Thursday evening. A brief history of the university and ment of Indiana will be outlined in talks by various Purdue university
graduates. "Although thousands of Purdue men and women throughout the state have their alma mater at heart, it i3 impossible for them to show their sentiment on this vital subject if they stand alone," says a bulletin issued in advance of the meeting Thursday night. "Standing together as an organization throughout the different counties, they can express their opinion on questions' of appropriations, etc.. so strongly that it will be appreciated by the legislators.
JUAREZ FALLS
(Continued from Page One) always has been a potential International danger, had been taken by the rebels without a fight. While preparations for the safeguarding of Americans at east coast ports of Mexico, by the dispatch of additional naval units, went forward, and Carranza's reply to the sharp representations made by this government
regarding the murder of two more

Until now the rebels have succeeded in taking from Carranza almost half hjs territory without a battle, but military men here who have watched the developments of the revolution assume a few stubborn contests are Inevitable unless averted by further defections in the federal forces. Mexican agents here persist In their assertions that further cases of government troops declining battle will hasten the end of their struggle. So far as indicated by Information available here, either from official or rebel sources, the two campaigns begun by Carranza have been failures. His effort to attack the Bonora troops from the state of Chihuahua has been brought to an end by the defection of every garrison in that state,- and the expedition sent from the south through the state of Jalisco to check the southward movement of rebels through the states of Sonora, Sinaloa and Nayarit, has not succeeded, largely because of the harassing
by small rebel groups who have been striking at the railroad extending through Guadalajara toward the north. Only One Federal Garrison. In the state of Sinaloa there remain
ed a federal garrison at Mazatlan, but too small," military observers say to assume the offensive and not strong enough to withstand a heavy attack The rebel tactics appeared to ignore the little garrison, believing it would eventually surrender. The occupation of Juarez makes it possible, in the opinion of American military men for the rebel leaders to divert their Sonora forces to the route southward from Chihuahua towards Torreon, long regarded the most strategic point in northern Mexico. Possession of Torreon gives Its
holder the advantage of operating east ward through the state of Coahulla to Saltillo and Monterey, away to the south.

There will be a meeting of the Jackson township federation at the i town hall in Cambridge city on Tuesl day evening, at whch Charles Pat.terson, of Indianapolis, will be the principal speaker. Rail Conditions Climb Back to Normal Here Despite the strike of a few yard employes of the Pennsylvania railroad at Hamilton, mil officials report freight conditions in Richmond Tuesday as better than for more than three weeks. Embargoes to several points are In force, but to others are steadily climbing towards normal. The gasoline situation in Richmond remains unchanged since last week, although the Standard Oil company received several cars of naptha last week. This may be used for gasoline.

ple in nearly every village setting up 8. hickory pole and around it rallying to the support of "Old Hickory." At his inauguration, according to Justice Story, "the reign of king mob seemed triumphant," and the jurist saw with horror the white house invaded by "crowds of all sorts of people, from the highest and most polished down to the most vulgar and gross in the nation." Although the government no longer was in good society, this first frontiersman in the presidency was no social boor. He felt free to relax by stretching himself under the trees on the white house lawn, a corncob pipe in his mouth; but on proper occasion his manners were as courtly as those of any predecessor or successor. James Buchanan, who once escorted an English lady to see Jackson; took the liberty of advising him to "slick
up a little, ana received this sharp rebuke: "Buck-hannan, I knew a feller what got rich a mindin' his own business!" When the president came down to receive the visitor, she was charmed to be greeted by a gracious and stately gentleman In a ruffled shirt and swallow tail coat, which had been quickly substituted for a faded dressing gown. It was derision of Its fallen dignity In the eyes of the aristocrats that the "President's Mansion" or "President's Palace" was nicknamed "The White House" by Jackson's critics. To them it was no longer a mansion or a palace, but merely a house and a whitewashed house at that! Unfortunately, the Jacksonlan revolution imported from Europe the aristocratic system of official favorit
ism and patronage, which does not belong in a democracy. Adopting the slogan "to the victors belong the spoils." the new administration made more removals from office In its first month than were made altogether by the six administrations which had gone before. In a simple, young country, still without big cities or railroads, without great industries, mines, corporations and monopolies and with an abundance of virein soil, thp American pro-

house, and made the social recogni
tion of Mrs. Eaton a test of loyalty to his administration. The president's sympathies were all the more easily aroused by the plight of "Peg," as he called her because his own good wife had been the target of the scandal mongers, whose poisoned shafts at last, as he believed, had' pierced her heart. After a campaign in which her name had been unjustly and shamefully dragged in the mire, she died between the election and the Inauguration. Jackson's hour of triumph was turned to a time of mourning for this devoted, faithful companion "a being so gentle and so virtuous," as he recorded in her epitaph, "slander might wound but could not dishonor."

the Rio Grande. With rebels on the east and west, the only outlet to the American border left the Mexican government la through Laredo and Eagle Pass. Notwithstanding the rapid progress the rebels have made, however, there has been nothing In the reports 'received here that has causd American officers to believe Carranza will be forced to surrender or run for a considerable period of time. An increasedrestriction of his zone of operations was regarded as not unlikely through the cutting of all his lines of communication both to the north and to the sea coast, but even then, they indicated, a loyal, though reduced, army could hold Its own for many weeks on account of organization and greater supplies. See Danger in South The greatest immediate danger that official and unofficial observers here
professed to see in the situation so far as It affected Carranza was that menacing him in the south. The long hook, whose making the rebels began when they started down the west coast, has now reached its barb almost to the gates of the capital. With the exception of a short break across the state of Jalisco it has curved through the states of Collma, Michoacan, Guerrero and More-
los. A part of the forces in the state
of Puebla have joined the rebels, advices agree, and rebels in the state of Tlaxcala, between Mexico City and Vera Cruz, hare Interrupted traffic both over the Inter-oceanic and Mexican railways. At different points in southern Vera Cruz rebel operations have been reported, and from official as well as rebel sources news received here has Indicated advanced steps toward the co-ordination of the different factions.

Other industries can buy their raw materials according to need or judgment, and set a selling price. They need manufacture only what they can sell at their price. Cotton, wool, wheat, lumber, iron, steel, and other non-perishables, can be held either by their producers or their users until needed. But live stock comes to market every day in fluctuating quantities from scattered sources, wholly uncontrolled and at times without regard to market needs. An immediate outlet must be found for the perishable products, at whatever price, as only a very small proportion can be stored. No one can foresee or stipulate what they shall bring; prices must fluctuate from day to day to insure keeping the market clear. Only the most exacting care of every detail of distribution enables Swift & Company to make the small profit from all sources of a fraction of a cent per pound, necessary for it to continue to obtain capital and maintain operations.
