certain counties to nominate county,

passed off quietly in all precincts.
There are about 200 candidates for
various positions.

DIAMOND MYSTERY DARK
Suspects Are Released and
Police Do Not Ex-
pect Solution.

The great Hammond diamond rob-
berry mystery which thrilled the Calu-
met region a few weeks ago is as un-
fathomable as ever
The two suspects who were thought
to be implicated in the Bastar & Nc
Garry diamond theft and Were arrested
in Aurora, have been released from GUS
tody.
They were both able to prove alibis
and the police could not hold them. SO
they were dismissed with reluctance.
Baffied so far in the solution OF the
robbery the local authorities and Mr..
McGarry have not yet, however. given
up all hope OF landing the thieves.
They are working on other lines that
give promise of clews.

CONDITIONS IMPROVING
No Reason Why Indiana
Harbor Families Should
Suffer Longer.

East Chicago, Ind, May 16.-(SpeeiaD
to Geo. w. Ross of the East
Chicago Land company there is no rea-
son why single family in Indiana Har-
Dor should be destitute on account of
industrial conditions.
Mr.. Ross said this as though he be-
lieved it and inquiring in various di-
rections bears him out
On every hand the numerous plants
and mills on which this rapidly grow
ing city depends for its prosperity are
opening up or adding to their hitherto
limited forces. Tuesday the commits
sary department which has been sup
plying food to the needy. dropped
twenty-six families from its list and
the prospects are that in a short while
the department may be dispensed with
altogether.
The reason of this is that the heads
of the families heretofore in want are
finding employment and according to
Mr.. Ross there is work for every man
in the Harbor in one capacity or an
other.
From time to time THE TIMES has
printed articles referring to the opening
of this or that plant or foundry or the
addition to their forces.
Two Now Open.
Within the past week or two several
plants have resumed after a period of
absolute idleness or what approached
idleness and canvass of what the diff
ferent concerns are doing is interesting.
The HARRISON Walker people are run
ming practically full force so IS the
Grasselli Chemical works. The Amer
/ lean Steel Foundries company has
three hundred men at work and the
Standard Forging company lighted sew
| eral fires last week.
Republic Is Started.
/ The Republic Iron and Steel started
the first Of the week with a force of
about six hundred men and the Inter
state is running almost full force ac-
cording to good authority. The Inland
Steel people are putting in extensive
improvements and running about half
force.
With these conditions the outlook at
East Chicago and Indiana Harbor is
bright to say the least, and the pres
ent is far from dark.

gineer and Escape-All Six of the
Thieves Were Masked.

Six armed and masked men boarded
switch engine of the Chicago juno

last night at West Fortieth and Loom
is streets and robbed o. E. Pratt, a

SUSTAINS THE
REGULATIONS
Grazing ON Forest Reserves Is
Strictly Subject 10 Gov
eminent Control
Special to Daily Panhandle.

Washington, d, c., May 1.-THE
government has Just won ITS sixth
important case concerning the valid.
lty OF the regulations made by the
secretary OF agriculture to control
grazing in the natlonal forests. In
the United States court at Denver,
Colo, Judge Robert Il. Lewis has
overruled the demurrer OF Fred
Light, a wealthy stockman OF Pit
kin County. Colo, which contended
that the grazing regulations in force
on the national forests are unconstI-
tutional.
The whole case reyolved around
the contention raised by some Colo
RADIO stockmen that the government
is no more than private land owner
in the matter OF state fence laws, A
number Of states have fence laws
which make It impossible for a prl-
vate person to collect fees or dam
ages from owners of stock which
stray upon his land unless the land
is fenced. The national forests are
not fenced and on this the stoCkmen
based their refusal to pay grazing
fees.
A friendly suit to test the regu-
lations Of the secretary OF agricul-
ture prohibiting the drifting OF cat
tie upon the forest. Al the Public
Lands Convention held in Denver last
June the forest officers and repre-
sentatives Of the Colorado Cattle and
Horse Growers Association, Of which
Mr.. Light is a member agreed TO
friendly suit. The case is practically
the same as the famous shannon
case In Montana, in which the graz
ing regulations were also upheld.
The decision OF Judge Hunt in
this Montana case was affirmed by
the omitted States circuit court OF
appeals at the ninth circuit sitting
at San Francisco on February 3, this
year. That decision stated without
qualification that the grazing reg
ulatlons are reasonable and valid
and that the state land laws do not
apply to the national forests and
that therefore, the drifting OF stock
upon the forests in violation OF the
regulations is trespassing, notwlth-
standing the state laws.
The Light decision simply affirm
ed the same principle in another
The attorneys Cor Mr..
Light, under the agreements made
before the trial. are bound not to
dispute the facts, but will probably
appeal the legal question for decl-
sion by the circuit court OF appeals
at st. Louis. Eventually II will be
carried up TO the supreme court.
The other suits attacking the graz
ing regulations won by the govern
ment are the following cases: The

ma; the United States VS.. Bale, South

guirre, Northern California; the

VISITING EXPERIMENTAL FARM.
NJ. A. Carlton Does Practical Work
on Plains Land.

(From Thursdays Daily.)
NJ, A. Carleton, of the department
OF agriculture, from Washington, d.
C., who is here today, is proving his
belief in the "semi-arlde vest max
ing home In tract of land near
Nara Visa, N. NJ. Mr.. Carleton pur-
chased $50 acres OF land last
year from the Bravo ranch and
moved his family to the place. They
spent the summer on this farm and
the summer was so much a success
IN every way that his family is back
there again.

sick out here, you know" 1t is also
a great place for the rest OF the
family and under the care of Mr..
Carleton and his assistants, the farm

methods
Mr.. Carleton is here today in con-
nection with the affairs of the local
experimental farm. He reports that
work at the farm is In an eminently
satisfactory condition, but he has a

of the arrangements which have been
made--or rather not made-by the
city for the future of the farm.

EXCHANGE COMMENT.
Modern Campaign Methods.

Modern Campaign Methods.
Jackson left his mark on all that
he touched. With his advent a new
regime was inaugurated. It's coming
was accompanied by new methods.
The presidents who preceded him
were educated, polished statesmen.
They were of the aristocracy. When
their aspirations for the PRESIDENCY
was voted in stately fashion by
friends measure of dignified deco
rum was observed in the spoken or
printed expression of hopes and
claims.
Campaigning in the modern sense
was unknown. Conventions had no
existence. Platforms declaring in
principles and policies to which the
candidate pledged himself had not
yet been formulated. Political car
toons, caricatures, great mass meet
ings, flamDoyant Haunting of flags,
haunting transparencies, parades,
brass bands, campaign songs and
buttons-these played no part in the
election Of Washington, Adams, JEFF
ferson, Madison, Monroe.
They were lacking even in the
campaign of 1924, when Jackson was
first a candidate, though the house
of representatives defeated the popu-
lar will which had named him as it's
choice by selecting John Quincy
Adams to fill the presidential office,
But in the campaign of 1928 the
general who had done things diff
ferently at the battle Of New Or
