w. Dobin has his way. Mr.. Dobin is
a property owner in that thoroughfare
and he has faith in it's future as a busi-
ness artery. He is a pioneer IN the
wide sidewalks movement and has set
an example for the other property
owners along the line by ordering his
walk from fourteen to eight feet
Mr. Dobin sent the following com
munication to THE LAKE COUNTY TINES
this morning with the request that it
be published:

When seen later Mr. Dobin said
string tied to It. It can be drawn
upon by any committee Of state street
property owners appointed to see that
the project is carried out.
Il have faith in the future OF State
street as business street and so
has everybody else who owns foot

east and west street of Hammond and
it reaches out in the direction in which
the city is growing. 1t is now sixty
feet wide with an eight-foot sidewalk
on each side. This makes il forty-four
feet in clear. This is not sufficient TO
accommodate the traffic that is there
now, not to mention what is bound
to come later.
some Of the keenest real estate
owners in Hammond have vacant
property or practically unimproved
property along there. Some Of them
are planning the erection Of preten-
tious buildings Now is the time to
set back the building line. The widen

VINDICATI0N DAY FOR
LAKE COUNTY TIMES.

Today is marked by the vim
dication of THE LAKE COUNTY
TIMES on two articles OF i'm
portance, both of which nt the
time of publication were denied
by the metropolitan press. In
the case of the reported sale of
the Chicago Junction road TO the
Vanderbilt system TIE TIMES
scoOped the vorla. The Chicago
papers the next day saw ft 10
deny the truth of THE TINES
scoop. In its recent story con-
cerninE the prospective price Of
beef this paper exploited a line
of reasoning to back up its
prophecies, which were diScred-
ited NJ the time. THE TIMES
theory has since received the
support of the department of
agriculture ut Washington. The
Chicago papers this morning
were forced to admit by articles
they published on the subjects
under controversy, that THE
TIMES was right in both in
stances.
