Hammond this afternoon unheralded
and unexpected. He had with him n

gift of the governor In the event TINT

BY some mistake on the part of the
speakers bureau Of the prohibition
party Mr.. Haynes was not expected to
arrive here until tomorrow. Mr..
Haynes, however, understood that he

It was great crew which came to
this Sodom and Gormorrah of the
liquor world in the hope that a few
votes might be picked up. If the can
didate for governor was sure of his
election, as most candidates are, re-
gardless of their chances, he did NOT
show it on his face.
He looked as though he had been
travelling over a barren waste and his
voice was hoarse from frequent speak
ing. But there was a gleam in his eve
which showed that there is still some
fight left in him and he is plugging
ahead at his hopeless task with con-
siderable cheerfulness

FOREIGNERS GET PAPERS
Twenty Five More Members

Yesterday.

Twenty-Five Gary foreigners were

yesterday to take out their naturaliza-

OF good friends Of the Grand Old Party
and 1t Is said that the republicans have
naturalized at least 800 foreigners so
far. The democrats have naturalized
but seven by actual count, and for this
reason the Gary republicans think that
things are looking rosy for the party
in the new steel city.
The foreigners in a steel city are
generally republican. for they have
learned that the republican party
brings prosperity and the democratic
party destroys it. For that reason
they are usually the friends of the G.

indianapolis, Sept. 22.-The fourth
working day of the special session OF
the general assembly stiu found the
legislators unprepared to take final ac-
ton on the county local option measure
which is the sole subject of interest
here at the capitol. Even the presence
yesterday of hundreds of ministers and
good citizens failed to clarity the at-
mosphere of doubt which surrounds the
proceedings.
In the senate the option measure was
up to third reading and a vote might
be taken at any time were it not for
the fact that the administrative
measure-the one drafted by the In
diana Anti-Saloon League-had a rival
in the bill which was introduced by
Senator Mattingly. of Washington. Both
bills were advanced to third reading
yesterday afternoon. The public morals
committee did not have time to thrash
out the points in controversy so 1t
sruck out the dual feaure of the ad
ministrative bill and then recommended
it along with the Mattingly bill for
passage.
Voted Down By Party votes.
The democratic members of the com
of Clay county, and Bing-
ham. of St eph-returned minority
reports for indefinite postponement but
these were voted down by straight
party votes. Durre of Evansville. was
the only republican toindicate that he
did not welcome the opportunity to enact
he option. He said that he would vote
against the bill when it came up for
passage, but that he would vote against
killing at this time in order to give
the measure fair chance for its life
Slack, floor leader floor leader for the
democrats, said his side of the chamber
would not object to the option being
advanced, but that he wished the sub
ject made a special order of business
that it might be carefully discussed
Moss and Bingham recommended in
definite postponement on the ground
that the question is before the people
as clearly-defined campaign issue
and because no emergency to justify
action at this time exists.
Bills still in Committee.

numbers.
But it IS practically certain that the
people of Indiana Harbor will at Ieast
get chance to look at the man who
Will, In all probability, be the next
president of the United States.
Several Hammond people and many
from East Chicago will go to the Har-
Dor with this prospect In view and the

Ing for the party for years and is about
as good a speaker as there lis in the
state. He lives in Portland. Ind and
is known all over the state.
The itinerant band will move on to
LaPorte tomorrow where they will hold
meeting there. Mr.. Haynes is worthy
OF being heard and 1t is hoped that

ton than he had here.

So far no action has been taken by
the legislature on the recommends
ton of Gov. Noel for a tWo-cent-a-
mile passenger rate. There are sew
eral phases to the question. If the
railroads cannot afford two cent
aate. and they claim they crnnot,
without reducing the service, it is
not right to force them to it. Or if
they cannot give a two-cent rate
without raising freight rates then
they should not be forced to. Com
paratively few people travel exten.
slvely ON trains, while everybody who
buys an article for wear; an imple.
ment for use, OF provisions for the
table, helps pay freight rates in order
that favored few can travel at 6

STATUTORY PROHIBITION.

The bill for state wide prohibition
has become law and after Decem-
ber 81, 1908, there will be no saloons
in Mississippi. This is well and in
accordance with the overwhelming
sentiment in this state and in line
with action taken in other southern
states. Really, it will not greatly
change affairs in this state as local
option had banished the saloon in all
but a few counties. The vast MAORI
ty of the people have learned that the
saloon is an unnecessary evil and that
the sale of intoxicants can be greatly
lessened, if not entirely prohibited.
1t has been a long fight and there
was time when local option advo-
Gates were looked upon as cranks,
and in those days it took high de-
gree of moral courage to stadd up and
vigorously champion local option.
The late DR.. W. A. Hurt, of Winona,
was one of the earliest and ablest ad-
vocates of prohibition as exemplified
in local option, and his county, Mont
gomery, was the first, or among the
first to drive out the saloon. He pub
lished the first prohibition paper and
exerted a great influence for the
cause throughout the state. All
hoaor to his memory for his noble
pioneer work! That prohibition does
prohibit, has been amply demonstrate
ed by local option in this state. If it
does not, why do the manufacturers
of beer and whiskey make such a
strong fight against it? If the same
amount is consumed, they would not
care in what manner just so they
were paid for it.
One large brewer has stated that
prohibition in Oklahoma would cause
loss to him of million dollars. He
certainly thinks that prohibition pro-
hibits. There are persons who op-
pose prohibition because, they say, it
is restraint upon personal liberty, it
is a necessary one. '"Thou shalt not''
has to be applied to weak human
nature in many cases. The "right'
to kill, to steal, to adulterate milk
and other food products is taken
away. Some "rights" must be sur
rendered for the general good.
Let all good citizens rejoice that
Mississippi will be entirely delivered
from the saloon evil, and use their
utmost endeavors to see that the law
is firmly and faithfully enforced.

Obituary.

DIED-George H. Snead-November
"a, 1907.
"He is gone" are the words that
echo increasingly terough our hearts,
until their sad cadence becomes min
gled with the mournful breathings of
the autumnal winds that sigh back
the painful refrain, "never, never to
return" Only short while ago he
was with us, his bright handsome
young face beaming with kindness, a
true index OF his noble soul whom all
honored. His manly traits and ex-
cellent disposition won him sincere
welcome to our hearts aud homes.
During his twenty-one years of short
existence, his broad span of friend
ship encompassed all who knew him.
Truly death loves shining mark, !"
but it is hard, oh so hard to think his
promising young life is ended; that
he will be with us no more. The past
is the true criterion by which the
future may be known, and Georges
foretold brilliant success. We know
that he is at rest; that his life SO well
begun will be rounded and perfected
in the world ON high and blossom on
through countless ages. His was too
blameless, hence his soul was fitted
for heaven without long crucial
test; while others have to have the
hardships of adverse circumstances.
But we ask thee oh! Father to heal
the lacerated hearts that are bleeding
for the loss of him. Three sisters and
two brothers are mourning his alb
sence; the ashen impress of a great
bereavment pales the cheek of a low
ing father, who is yearning for sight
af his beloved face-the sound of his
dear voice which is forever still.
Then Father who didst pluck this
bright gem from earth to place it in
setting of Immortality, comfort the
bereaved family.

A bill creating state normal school
passed the senate last Tuesday, but
will meet its fate in the lower house.
That state normal school would be
beneficial to the profession in the
state, no one denies, so would sala-
ry of 5000 per month to the teachers
be of inestimable benefit and would
doubtlessly be gratefully received.
The only question was: Is the state
of Mississippi able to build and main
tain another college and pay anything
to common schools and maintain the
state government without additional
tax levy.

utes be filed with the court of general

fore Commissioner Hand, who was ap-
pointed by Governor Hughes to take
evidence in the matter of the Kings

the stand as his first witness.
The records which Judge Rosalsky
ordered filed with the court of general

minutes of the grand jury, and that this
is a violation of the law Judge Rosal-
sky thereupon issued a new order that

FIGHT IN VAIN FOR
BETTER MINING LAW
LIVELY DEBATE MAINTAINED
IN THE HOUSE
Appropriation for Investigation Look

Killed by South
erner
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, May 5.--A lively de-
bate was kept up all day today IN the
house on the sundry civil approprfa-
tion bill. Repeated efforts were made
by Messrs. Gaines of Tennessee and
CLANCY of Indiana, supported by many
other members, to procure an appro-
priation for an investigation looking
TO increased safety in mining, and
they had about got Chairman Tawney
to the point where he would consent
to an appropriation of $50.000 when Mr..
Underwood of Alabama objected and
the proposition for the time, at least,
was dropped.
A provision in the bill for the pur-
chase of over 5000 acres of land as an
addition to Fort Mckinley, Philippine
islands, based on a recommendation
by General Leonard Wood, excited Sc
we're criticism of that officer by Messrs.
Fitzgerald of New York and Butler of
Pennsylvania, the former continually
referring to him as "Dr. Wood" The
provision, on motion of Mr.. Hay of
Virginia, was stricken out by unani-
nous vote.
The additions to the bill today were
s100,000 for the military prison at Ft.
Leavenworth, Kan. and $16,500 for an
addition to Ft. Oglethorpe, Ca. or a
total increase to date of $1.241,00
The three remaining hours OF the
session were taken up almost entirely
by discussion OF roll calls, caused by
a refusal of the house to take recess
at o'clock as result of joke on the
part of some Republicans to hold the
Democrats in the house until the time
the Republican caucus was scheduled
to be held In this they were sue
cessful. the house finally at 7:47 p. m.
