INSURANCE FACTIONS REACH
UNDERSTANDING ON ADVANCE
Board and League VIII Cooperate
League Gives in But VIII Receive
Recognition.-Dean Schedule Is
Next.

An understanding between the
union and non-union insurance COM
panies in Indiaa has been reached
and the possibility for rate war be-
tween the state board and the league
is minimized.
A deadlock on the rate advance
had been reached in Hammond and
the surrounding cities some time ago.
The various Representatives met at
East Chicago to discuss the advance
and the adoption Of the Dean sched-
ule The non-union men objected
strenuously and the result IS that
a resolution was sent to the state
board telling it that both the state
board and he state league refused
to adopt the advance and the Dean
schedule The strongest objection
to both was made right in this part
| of the state. With the understand
ing, less friction is anticipated. On
the contrary cooperation is expect
ed.
The fight between the two factions
had It's origin in the failure of the
board to consult the league when
the new rates were to be promulgat-
ed. The league never objected very
strenuously to the new rates, but
wanted to be recognized in promul-
eating them.
The non-union companies have not
yet Endorsed the Dean schedule
throughout the state It is used in
some parts of the state by both COM
panies, This district does not use
the Dean schedule, but insurance
men feel confident that it will only
be question of a few months before
it too. will be adopted over the entire
state.

sHERRICK IS CHEERFUL.

Dan W. Simms of Lafayette, who
was one of the attorneys who de-
Tended ex-Auditor of State David
Sherrick, in his trial at Indianapolis,
has received a letter from Sherrick,
who is now in the state prison at
Michigan City, in which the former
state official expresses his sincere
gratitude to persons who have
demonstrated their friendship. He
writes cheerfully and there is not a
complaint in his letter against any
body He says that his conscience
does not upbraid him for anything
he has done and he expects the su-
preme court to reverse the decision
which sent him to prison. 1t is
when misfortune overtakes a man. he
says, that he realizes the true mean
ing of the word friendship and this,
he says, he has enjoyed to the ut
most.

tire County.

Guy NJ Wells, who is assistant
state secretary of the Young Mems

COILIDES WITH BRICK PILE.

Vern Parker, of the v. w. Parker
Transfer company, was driving
north on Holman street near Webb,
when he was blinded by the light of
an approaching street car. and his
horse was thrown into a pile of
bricks which was piled along the
street for the purpose of building
the sewer. There was no danger
signal on the obstruction, and Mr..
Parker thinks the city should see
that the sewer contractors put the
lights where they are needed.

A SYMPHONY FOR
REAL JOURNALISTS.

Every community suffers
when the Individual negleets
his civic duties, but when the
newspaper is derelict or cor
rupt the effect is moment
Gus, writes Samuel Bowles
in the North American Re-
view. It must be absolute
ly devoted to public interests
and stand for public enlight-
enment and welfare. Essen
tial to the adequate fulfill
ment of its functions are
honest art and genuine pro-
portion in its construction.
The newspaper maker on the
one hand is manufacturer,
but on the other hand his
work is like that of the learn
ed professions, law, medi-
cine, the ministry, and should
be conducted in conformity
to the standards which are
supposed to rule in those call
ings. The journalist has one
client one patient, one
fioek-that is to say the
whole community, and moth
ing should stand in the way
OF his single minded and de-
voted service of that one com.
mon interest. The editor,
says Mr.. Bowles, should be-
ware of all entangling al
iances-political, social, COM
mercial-which may limit or
embarrass such service. He
should let the honors and
emoluments of public office
go to other people His own
office, if properly administer
ed, IS more important and
powerful than any his that
his fellow citizens are likely
to confer upon him. The In
dependent neWspapc-c may be
and should be the most vital
and effeeJi7e instrument that
democratic society can pro-
duce for its own advancement
and protection; and lis t~ue
business welfare IN the long
view, lies in a complete, in
telhgent, sympathetic deyo-
tion to public interest.

OF INTEREST TO PRINTERS.

A stenotype machine by which a
syllable (and in some case two or
three syllables) is printed in type
at each stroke of the fingers, has
been invented by Partisan. This
result has been obtained by an in
genious arrangement of the letters
of the alphabet. 1t is said that fifty
words minute can be written by
an amateur, while a normal speed OF
125 to $50 words can be obtained
in two months, and in some cases
as high as 500 words.

Monster Demonstration Is
Planned by Union Men
for September 8.
Scene, DOUGLAS PARK
Place Accessible to Surrounding
Towns Which Have Been Asked
to Participate.

Labor Day, which will be cele-
brated on the third day of September
this year, will be a memorable one
if the plans of those who have the
celebration in charge are carried out.
The committee had practically de-
cided on Sharpshooter' park as the
most desirable place in which to give
the afternoon program when it was
pointed out that South Holman
street would be torn up on ae-
count of the sewer construc-
tion and would cause great incon-
venience to the crowds that are ex-
peeted to throng the park.
With Sharpshooter' park elimi-
mated, it was finally decided to hold
the celebration at Douglas park on
the North Side. This selection is
a fortunate one as it is located near
enough to Hammond to be easily ac-
cessible and is also within the reach
of East Chicago, Whiting and Indi-
ana Harbor people who have been in
vited to participate with Hammond
In observance of the day.
A contract has already been en-
tered into with d. A. Pugh for three
bands and the music alone will cost
nearly 5000. There will be a big pa
rade in the morning which will be
made up of hundreds of marching
union men, the city officials, and the
police. 1t is also expected that
many of the business men will be
represented with floats in the parade.
Program of Games.
At Douglas park it is planned to
build large dancing floor and put
on a canvas roof in case it should
rain. An effort will be made to Sc
cure some big attraction that will
prove a drawing card to the crowds
but so far the plans have not mate
rialized enough to- enable the COM
mittee to state what this attraction
will be-
There are, however, several n hings
already decided upon for the amuse-
ment of the crowds. There viii be
foot races and other athletic events
Several burlesque races have beer
decided upon in which the fat men
the lean men. the feshy woman and
the slight ones viii contest for hon
ors on the track.
There will be ample provision fol
the satisfaction of the appetite bott
for liquids and soids and the restau.
rans, liquid refreshment, candy
crackerjack and other concessions
will be sold to the highest bidder.
Committees Hard at Work.

who are already working strenuousl!

GARYS FIRST
SOCIAL EVENT
Inaugural Ball by Pleasure
Club Draws Out Entire
400 of Gary.
KNOTS LEADS MARCH
Floor of Specter & Goldberg's New
Building Presents Ideal Place for
Light Fantastic Trip.

1t is safe to say that none Of the
momentus events. which come so
rapidly to the people of Gary. that
their import is Iessened, will leave
lasting memories, as that which will
come with recollections of the first
society affair of the steel town.
Under the able management of the
Prospect Pleasure club and with the
help of willing friends, last evening
was made the most enjoyable of any
thus far. Gary's grand ball was in
every sense of the word a susccess.
1t was held in the building to be
occupied by Specter & Goldberg.
This has just been completed It is
20x6O with good floor and present
ed too good an opportunity to waste.
Personal invitations were sent out
early to everyone with no room left
on them for R. S. v.P The invita-
tion virtually was a command.
At 0 O'Clock the wealth and beauty
of Gary began to gather and in
short while the room was filed and
a large audience was on the outside.
Mr.. Hays phonograph had been
pressed into service and was made to
serve for orchestra for the first few
numbers. The grand march which
formally opened the ball, was led by
Mr.. and Mrs. T. e. Knotts. Among
others who took part were Mr.. and
Mrs Specter, Mr.. Miller and daugh-
ter Ruth and Mr.. Miller, Jr. and
wife, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Chambers.
Mrs A. G. Huber and brother Mr..
Reiland, Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Reil-
and.
Warne Brings Out His Fiddle.
Mr.. Warne was persuaded to bring
out his violin Although he declares
he had not played for a dozen years,
his ability as shown by the numbers
he played and by the applause the
dancers accorded him. was not of the
ordinary kind.
In the meantime Pro. McLain had
secured Messrs Chappell and Scritch-
field who furnished the music for the
rest of the evening. They are mem
bers of the corps and the part they
played in last evenings pleasure
served but to increase their popular
ity. Messrs Post and Hirsch of the
south corps were present. Mr..
Hirsch's indisposition prevented him
taking an active part but Mr.. Post
enjoyed himself thoroughly as did
the other boys.
During a rest on the part of the
musicians Wellington d. Jones re
cited Who Put the Water in the
MIR" and Mr.. Cooper followed with
And he Never Smiled Again" The
former excelled in oratory at Yale
and the latter is well known from
valparaiso.
The remainder OF the evening pass
cd all too quickly with waltzes, two
steps, quadriiles and reels. There
was nothing TO mar the pleasure
The spirit with which the college
boys entered into their parts whether
dance or play or rectte. helped great
" to round out the full measure o.
pleasure and we are proud of then
as we'll as of the rest of the GROVE
that gathered at our first bail. IN
deed no where else could you hav,
gathered so large a number of so COS
mopolitan a character and had so en-
joyable an evenirg as here in Gary
