TWO HUNDRED
FROM LAKE COUNTY
Druggist Henry Bicknell Seems To
Be Against Hanly and Sight of
Governor Spells Uncle Henry's
Whole Evening Because of the
Contretemps.

The story started in Hammond yester-
day that Hammond men could get
Ina the convention is silly season yarn.
If You want to get In the convention
You can get all the tickets you want.
No fewer than 200 republicans from
Like county have attended the national
republican convention.
There were more Lake county people
than ever who took advantage of OPP
p0rtunities to the big G. o. p. show
and again yesterday Lake county men
were to be seen everywhere In the lob
bies and in the Indiana headquarters.
Incidentally f. Richard Schaaf, the
Lake county chairman, is the local hero
OF the convention. He has been laying
his wires ever since the convention
started and yesterday he had things so
arranged that he could get all of his
friends into the convention hail.
Between thirty and forty Hammond
men applied and all were accommodate
ed. At first all that was required was
to get Jim Goodrich's o. K. and then
after that became merely a matter of
form and Mr.. Schaaf did not attempt to
abuse his privilege the doorkeepers
honored Schaafs o. K.
The county chairman from other
counties came to Schaaf and asked him
how he managed to work 1t. Schaaf
only smiled and looked wise Never
have been turned down yet" was all he
would say. Richard Schaaf is looked
upon as a progressive and energetic
county chairman by the down state
politicians and they give him about
everything he wants
Schanf Is Favored.
That will be the case when the COM
ing campaign is on and if there is
anything in the gift of the officers of
the republican state committee that
will do Lake county any good Richard
Schaaf is going to get 1t.
But there are a score of Lake county
men who are grateful to Schaaf for
getting them into the convention and
there will be two score who will get
in today as a result of Schaaf's infiu-
ence.
| The principal place of local interest
at convention yesterday outside of the
Coliseum was the Indiana headquarters
Here there seemed to be more of the
politicians around than at any previous
time during the convention.
| James Watson was there with his
/ exceedingly glad hand" and Governor
Hanly stood in the headquarters fol
several hours last evening meeting the
politicians from over the state.

BREWERS
ELEVATE
SALOONS

Milwaukee. Wis. June s-As re-
suit of the temperance wave that is
now sweeping over the country. the
United States Brewers association,
which began its annual convention
here today, will seek to secure the
adoption of plans that will drive the
dives and low groggeries out Of
business Brewers who are here
from all over the land agree that
such action is necessary to protect
the legitimate liquor dealers and to
prevent the spread of the dry"
sentiment to sections yet unaffected.
One of the plans under considera-
tion is that recently adopted in Gin
cinnati and which has met with niue Ii
success.
In Cincinnati several leading
brewers have been sworn in as proba-
ton officers of the juvenile court of
that city and are taking part in prose.
curing every case Of liquor selling to
minors and endeavor to revoke the
leases as we'll as licenses of those who
have violated the law.
As the brewers own large percent.
age Of the property in which saloons
are run, their power is considerable.
They also employ secret agents to
make Investigations. and II they find
saloons not being conducted in accord
snoe with the law, they put them out
of business.
In a small way the crusade against
dive saloons has already been begun
by the brewers in various other parts
Of the country. but the plan is to ex-
tend this moven emit, and during the
next year many undesirable saloon
men will be driven out OF the bust
ness
This spirit of inquiry which has
been started by the anti saloon agita
ton, throug bout the country to rea-
lie that their worst enemies are
within their own ranks. For some
years efforts have been made here
and there to rid the saloon business
Of it's disorderly and law .defying ele-
ment. In Massachusetts this has been
pretty thoroughly accomplished by
wise legislation. In other states the
laws themselves have invited and
stimulated over-competition, which
has proved disastrous to the morals
Of the business.
1t is expected that Wholesale
house cleaning will take place in the
retail liquor trade in every city OF
Importance in the United States.
