He kept good order and disposed of the
business before him in good order.
The delegations from the various
cities and townships were divided off,
each being seated around a placarded
post showing the districts.
"A motion for reclamation" was one
of the phrases that Peter Fox of Ham
mond coined in the heat of the discus
sion for the commissioners for the first
district
Once during the address of Ben r.
Shively one of the platforms on which
group Of men were standing, gave
way with a crash. Nobody was injured
but it was noticed that a number of
republicans were standing on this plat
form drinking democratic truths as ex-
pounded by the congressman.
Had Henry L. Keilman Of Dyer.per-
mitted to have his name presented as
commissioner, it is thought that he
would have made a strong race, ac-
cording to delegate strength He de-
clined absolutely and his name was not
mentioned.
When the name OF John L. Rohde of
Hammond was presented to the con-
vention he rose Immediately and de-
clined His name was presented for
the office of treasurer. His declina-
ton was followed by that of Tom Nc
Kay of Crown Point
| Among the prominent politicians out
side of Lake county who occupied a
seat on the stage during Shively's adj
dress were U. S. Jackson, president of
the democratic state central committee
James K. Risk of Lafayette, and Judge
Darroch of Kentland. Had there been
more time these men would have been
called on for a short address, but as it
was it was thought advisable to ad-
journ the convention without hearing
from them.
| The Hammond politicians were ever
the background as much as possible,
but were ever watchful that no cog
should slip. For instance, when the
name of Ed Aubrey of Hammond was
proposed for surveyor. Mayor Becker.

nomination and asked that the candi-

of the county. A p Melton, city en-
gineer of Gary, was chosen instead.

not is of small concern and he would be content could
he absolutely know that his other world existence
would be in nowise different from his existence in
this world. So strong has this feeling toward hell
become that thousands have tacy consented to have
hell cut out of Christian theology altogether, while
others incline to the notion that, after ALL it may be
only of temporary character with possibilities of
advancement, thereby offering avenue Of escape at
future time. So, while heaven may be regarded
as bride, direct and personal, hell is the whip with
which the ignorant have been dashed into
quiescence and compelled to admit an acceptance OF
the entire gamut of dogma.
From this it follows as logical necessity, that the
doctrine of hell has been and is now of far greater
value to the clergy and the church, generally than
the doctrine of heaven could possibly be. Doubts may
be entertained concerning the reality of heaven; fears
may be experienced anent the possibility OF ever
reaching it, but long some sort of personal guar

ROCKEFELLER is
CLOSELY GUARDED

NEW YORK, April Leading
two children of his daughter, Mrs.
Harold Mccormick of Chicago. by the
hand, John D. Rockefeller walked
this morning from his home to the.
Fifth-avenue Church, where he join
ed Mrs. Rockefeller. A private de-
tective followed Rockefeller very
closely and kept all but intimate
friends at distance. A special pa
trolman was at the church and h.
and the detective escorted the Rookie
fellers to their home after the ]ser-
vices. ~ s.
Despite the fact that he said he
was feeling well, general comment
was made on all sides because of
Rockefeller's greatly altered appear
ance. He looks at least ten years
older than when he last appeared at
church in the fall. His shoulders are
,perceptibly bent and he does not walk
with the same brisk step. He APP
pears to have lost twenty pounds,
and his former thick, full neck is con-
siderably thinned. Neither did he
appear as cheerful as before, and his
face wears a strange, far-away, wor-
ried look.
He is much devoted to his grand
children and the threats of the Black
Hand blackmailers of Chicago have
given the family great anxiety II
is because of these threats that the
McCormicks are taking the children
abroad for long tour. They will be
closely guarded during the trip AMI
private detectives will accompany
them everywhere. The activity Of
the government and local authori
ties against the Black Hand and 9th
er anarchists, it is thought, has caus
ed the blackmailers to cover theil
tracks for a time.

A tunnel has been advanced on the

the ore shoot in all the workings,
shows a general average value of

AS this ore can be mined and the
values actually recovered for less
than 50 per ton, it is really a divi-
dend-paying property at this time.

While the above are facts as 70 my
conversation about this particular mat

principle involved is one that it would
be well for this Territory to adopt
to the limit possible. The more dis

kept from the Federal-so far as com
bining like offices under one head-the
sooner we are likely to obtain state
hood. Every step in the other direc-
ton is a virtual admission of i'm
potence in the conduct of our local af-
fairs and by implication of unfitness
for self government
And in conclusion | may say that
in my opinion Judge Humphreys and
those he represents deserve common
dation rather than censure for having
raised the question as to Dr. Cofer's
eligibility to hold a Territorial office.

REMEDY IS FOUND
FOR TUBERCULOSIS
SWISS SCIENTIST sBWs BACILLI
INTO skim MAKING ANIMALS
IMMUNE.

VIENNA, Italy, June S.-What is be-
lieved to be an extremely important
discovery in the incubation of animals
for tuberculosis was announced at a
meeting of the Vienna Medical society
today by Prof. G. Heymans, a Swiss
scientist. The process is simple, oc-
cupies less than a minute and renders
the animal entirely immune from tub
erculosis. One milligram of tuberculo-
sis bacilli is placed in a laced sack,
the cover of which is made of a reed.
The whole is then inclosed in a gelatin
capsule and sewn under the skin of the
animal 1t acts on the membrane and
absorbs the fluids of the body, which
cause the bacilH to multiply at first,
but to perish later.
Meanwhile the poisons from the ba-
cilli permeate the body producing
antidotes which protect the organism
from further infection. From ten to
eighteen months after it's insertion
the feed cover can be withdrawn, when
the bacilli will be found to have per-
ished. The animal is then perfectly
immune from tuberculosis and can be
inOculated with the bacilli of that
disease or can eat them mixed with it's
fodder and remain perfectly healthy.
Prof. Heymans declares that the
method is ideal for dealing with tuber-
culosis in cattle and that it is not i'm
possible that some such method may
be successfully employed in protecting
mankind from the same disease.

These are Kipling's words:
"Oh, East is East and West is West,
and never the twain shall meet"
1t is the question of Oriental immi-
grafton that makes us think of them
This antagonism against the Japanese
is racial. 1t broke out in the west. 1t
blazed up in Canada. Australia, under
British rule, already refuses the Japa-
nese citizenship.
Why?
Because they know what it means
A vast part of the world does not
know. There is a Jap here and Jap
there in the Eastern states. They
have their own pursuits. They live
their own lives. They come into no ap-
probable contact with the citizens
around them. The Chinese are even
less conspicuous. People do not know
they are there. They do not know
what it would mean to be obliged to
recognize them.
The West does know.
Suppose hordes of Orientals should
pour into New England. Suppose they
should say: I'VE are here! We have
come to work! We have come to be
citizens, thousands and tens of thou
sands of us! We have come with our
customs, our manners, our point of
view, our standards of life; we expect
to gain. We do not expect to contri-
butte, because we do not think as you
think. Give us room"
If they came like this-and this is
the way they are coming in the West
there would be another Boston tea

party, and it would ring the bullseye
of history louder than it was rung in
1873.
1t is the inherited feeling of race.
1t is as everlasting and as resistless as
the tides. It can no more be talked
down or argued down or legislated
down than men can talk or argue
or legislate out of existence the prin-
ciple OF self preservation.
Labor contributes to It. The school
question contributes to IT,
But back of all is-race, because It
is impossible that the Anglo-SaNon and
the Oriental should unite.
That is why we stand for Oriental
exclusion.
1t is not necessarily any reflection
upon the Oriental. If he builds up a
great world-power Of his own, if he
transforms his mud huts into marble
palaces, his standards of life into lofty
ideals, his centuries of darkness into
surprising light we'll and good
1t will be magnificent. We will glory
in his achievement.
But let him do it in Asia, not in
America.
This is not selfishness, any more
than the Imprisonment of criminals is
selfishness. 1t is not sacrificing ethics,
any more than the exclusion of epilep
tics is sacrificing ethics. It is no blow
at the foundation of the republic, any
more than is any other principle which
will not permit the welfare of the re-
public to be menaced.
