Local Option If It Was Demand
ed of Him.

win four or Ave republican, recruits.
If the democratic hope is realized the
minority party will be in control and
will be able to elect an anti Hanly re
publican as speaker and thwart action
on the bill They will even be able TO
adjourn the House for three days and
then readjourn and keep on readjourn-
ing every three days until the Senate
joins with il in adjournment sine die.
1t is not thought, however, that such a
course will be adopted even though the
democrats with the aid of republican
insurgents rule. 1t is argued that re-
publican insurgents willing to vote for
adjournment would also be willing to
vote against the county local option
bill and that the latter would be pre-
ferable to the democrats.
Election Held Tomorrow.
Elections will be held in six districts
tomorrow to fill vacancies in the gen.
eral assembly caused by deaths and re-
signations. Orators of both parties
have been tramping the districts up
and down but it is generally conceded
! that the political divisions will be the
same they were two years ago. 1t
| is practically conceded that Clinton and
Carroll counties will return a republic
| ma senator to succeed John c. Farber,
| deceased, and that Jasper, Newton,
| Stake and White will elect republican
! to succeed DIR. Richard c.. Mccain, who
resigned from the Senate to become
| postmaster of Kentland. 1t is also con-
] coded that. a democratic successor to
| John Benz, deceased, will come from
| Dubois, Crawford and Perry counties
/ he &c Of To nd ole 90
1 Posey counties are expected to elect
| successors to John Faulkner and Frank
| Wade, respectively, both of whom held
! democratic seats in the House and the
| Delaware county which is to elect a
| successor to Oliver Carmichael, who
| resigned. The fight in Delaware .coun4
ty is bitter but the contest is between
brewers who wish to show republican
loss, and republican, who wish to make
an object lesson that may be followed
| by the entire state next November
Both parties expect the districts to holC
special elections to divide politically
as they divided two years ago.

The police started an immediate
trace of the kidnaper by keeping up a
hot pursuit, sent out messages to all

Indianapolis, September 1s.-Repub-
licans are confident they will have a
full representation of their member
ship in the general assembly at the
caucus tomorrow night when the fate
of the proposed county local option bill
will probably be determined. The fate
OF the measure may not be determined
at this meeting but il will become
known then whether or not IL is TO
have easy or rough shedding
II the republicans succeed in getting
all their members together and if the
legislators agree to accept the bill as
party measure, county option will be
practically a reality. On the other
hand, if majority legislators stay away
in considerable numbers or if persons
present protest against caucus action
and refuse to be bound by it it will be
evident that the efforts of the party
managers to whip recalcitrants into
line have failed.
Bring Pressure to Beaar.
The last screws were being frightened
today and final pressure was being
brought to bear upon those who had
not definitely and firmly pledged them
selves to the program outline by Gov
ernor Hanly and the republican lea
ers 1t was admitted around the state
headquarters today that two or three
representatives were holding off and
declining to bind themselves. 1t was
upon these that the pressure was being
| to be brought with greatest force.
The republicans have practically
| abandoned hope of winning any demo-
/ cratic votes for their measure. They
had thought that there would be more
democratic recruits than republican de-
serters but the developments of the
| last day or two revealed the fact that
| the democratic bosses had their legis-
lators we'll in hand and that not more
than two democratic votes could be
hoped for. Even these were regarded
as doubtful. This situation convinced
the republican party managers that
they would have to control their own
men if success is to crown their efforts
Work to Line Them Up.
| The democrats are working just as
hard as the republicans to line up their
assemblymen and they, too, are hoping
for assistance from the opposition. The
democrats can not hope to bring about
| adjournment or to defeat the bill by
their own votes as they have forty
seven members of the House while the
| constitutional ma jority requires fifty
one votes. But the democrats hope tt

GARY'S BOY BANDIT
IN THE Tolls AGAIN
Peter Galcott is Caught
With the Goods on
Him.
ALREADY HAS POLICE RECORD
Said to Have No Parental Care and
Authorities May Send Him to
an Institution.

Little Peter Galeott, the boy bandit
of Gary, who was a few days ago ar
rested for the robbery of a house in
which he secured Sc in money, two re-
volvers and shotgun, was again
brought into custody by the police
charged with robbing man of two
watches. One of the watches was
found in the boys possession and the
other he claimed to have been given
to his brother. When questioned
young Galeott made a full confession,
but said that the man who lost the
watches dropped them in the sand and
that he picked them up without, re-
turning the INTO him.
When found, Peter was on his way
toward Toleston, and it is thought
that he was attempting to make a
getaway He claims, however, that he
was only searching for a stray horse
for which the owner offered a quarter
for its return. He said that he was
trying to earn this quarter when he
was caught

.LEMUEL BARROW
APPEARS BEFORE BOARD
Reports Plans for Paving of Broad
way Are Progressing-Attorney H.
V. Call Approves of Toleston Gun
Club Deed and Advocates a New
Franchise.

In order that the saloonkeepers of
Gary would not be compelled to pay
for a city license for a whole year,
when they have but a few months more
to run on their county license, City
Attorney Bomberger has been request
special ordinance which provides for
the issuance of a city license for an
indefinite length of time.
Is The question which has been before
the saloonkeepers for some time is that
of whether or not on Oct. l. when their
city license becomes due they will have
to get a new one for an entire year
This would mean that it would be
useless for the most part because they
would not beable to run the saloon
after their county license expired. At
the most the saloonkeepers would not
have more than six months longer to
run so that at least $50 of the 500
rightfully belongs to the applicant.
The ordinance will be presented at the
next meeting for passage.
barrow Before Board.
Mayor Lemuel barrow of the Gary
& Interurban, again appeared before
the town board and reported that the
plans for the pavement of the right
Iof-way of the line on Broadway was
progressing rapidly. He states that
1.-THE work would probably be completed
before cold weather sets in. He stated
however that because of the absence
of the board of directors of the line
that they were unable to get together
and decide as to the feasibility of the
plan of having the city do the work
and take out lien on the road. He
stated that he believed, however, that
there would most likely be no objec-
ton.
Call Approves of Deed.
Attorney II. V. Call appeared before
the board and stated that in the mat
ter of securing the deed to the strir
of land by the Tolleston Gun club tina
the wording was satisfactory and tina
they would be able to proceed with tn,
work of filing in the Broadway a
once Upon motion the matter of an
nexation of the four sections of lane
was withdrawn from the county coun
: ell as this step has now become un
necessary.
Advises a Franchise.
Mr.. Call also stated that the C. L. S
d E. were laying their tracks acros
! the Clarke road for their yards, blu
that they were in no way interferin,
with traffic. He stated that for thi
reason they were not violating the in
junction which had been served then
which prevents them from blockin,
the road Mr. Call stated that he be
lieved that the city could settle the dill
I ficulty for the road by giving them
franchise to cross it with any numbe
of tracks.

Promised Better Behavior.

The last time that the boy was
caught and made a confession of his
guilt, he was released upon promise to
be good and never steal anything
again. His parents also promised to
look after him and see that he did not
get into any more mischief. To the
contrary, however, not a week after he
was released, he stole the watches.
The police believe that the young fell
low is an incorrigable, and that the
best thing for him is to send him for
a term to Jacksonville. Much of his
waywardness is said to be due to the
lack of parental care, as he is allow
ed to stay out of school day after day.
The young boy also admitted that he
had stolen the sum of $50 from his
father some time ago.
