NO ONE SEEMS
TO WANT The JOB
Believed That An Attempt Will Be
Made to Reflect George Manlove,
Although His Candidacy Has Not
Been Announced and Perhaps Fun
May Result.

The annual meeting of the Gary Re-
publican club is only six days away
and as yet not a single candidate has
doomed up, and declared himself for
the presidency and the honor of lead
ing his party in the approaching mu-
nicipal campaign, the first in the his
tory of the steel city.
A thorough canvass of the city yes
terday failed to reveal a single man
who wanted the position, who knew of
any one who wanted it, or who could
suggest person suitable for the ardu-
Gus task. The situation as represented
above is the way it looks from birds
eye view, but deep down The hearts
of many of the Gary politicians, can
be discerned scheme or plot of some
character which is scheduled to be
sprung upon the unsuspecting Iayman
when the melting is called to order
Monday night in the Binzenhof hall.
Attempt May Be Made.
1t is believed that an attennpt will
be mad to re-eIect George Manlove. al
though he has not publicly announced
his candidacy for the position 1t
looks. at the present time. as if the
coterie which selected Manlove last
night when they will carry the other
factions of the republican party off
their feet. and have no difficulty in Sc
lecting their man.
The leadership of the republican par
ty during the coming municipal cam
paign, will mean much to a candidate,
both for the nomination and election.
1t is felt that success in the first mu-
nicipal campaign will have much to do
with the future of either party, and
the fight next fall will be one of the
hottest in this part of the state.
AS yet there is no activity among
the democrats of the city, everything
being cut and dried. There is but one
acknowledged leader, Thomas Knots.
C. o. Seton, president of the Demo-
cratic club said yesterday that a meet
ing of the club had not been called.
and that he did not think that it would
be necessary for some time.

dell. chairman of the Iaporte County
AnttSaloon league. yesterday announc-
ed that the fling Of the local option
petition in this county, which was
scheduled for today, would be deferred
until the May term. The intention now
IS to file it four weeks from today,
when petitions will also be fled in
Starke and St Joseph counties The
reasons for not fling now are that the
Anh-Saloon league in this county has
just barely enough signatures, and it
does not wish to file the petition until
It has about 1000 names. 1t has also
been discovered that the wording of
the petition which was drawn after the
one in Elkhart county, is liable to be
attacked
The vets were disappointed when
they heard the petition was not to be
fled today. They fear a postponement
will aid the ''drys."

TIMES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPITAL

indianapolis. Ind, April 6.-If Cass
and Blackford counties vote dry to-
day at their local option elections there
VIII be little in the result to encourage
the liquor people in other counties of
the state. 1t is admitted that the local
option movement will get the most Sc
we're test in these two counties that #
mas mad anywhere lse In the state OF
course, Wayne county gave the move
ment temporary jolt, but it was a
roresone conclusion in that county for
some time before the election was held
that the county would vote wet. Peo-
PIE who came to this city from Rich
mond were almost unanimous in the
declaration that Wayne county would
go wet, although at home they kent
their opinions and views to themselves
But 1t Is different in Cass and Black
lord counties. The saloons In those
counties are different from those Of
| wayne county. In Richmond there Is
not much antipathy toward the saloons
SO 1t is pointed out, because the saloons
IN that city are conducted on a higher
plane than those of most places Won
don't hear much complaint about the
saloons in Richmond But Iogansnor+
and Hartford City have about as wide
open and VIGOROUSLY law-breaking sa
looms as could be found in the state.
In both places the saloons and the lio-
uor people run everything that has to
be run. They control politics. officers.
elections, nominations, ordinances. law
enforcement or the lack of it, and thew
nave their thumbs on the business in
terests of both places. SO the power
that is behind the wet interests in both
of these places is tremendous.
hartford City is manufacturing
city. 1t has large number of glass
factories. all employing many men. and
It is said that these glassworkers are
largely in favor of wet town. This is
giving the vets great amount of hope
as to the outcome of the election. The
glassworkers are tightly organized, and
When they take a notion to make their
power felt in a place the size of Hart
ford City they can do it. This is large
ly the reason why so many of the bust
ness men of Hartford City are working
with the vets. They cannot afford to
light the wishes of the gIassworkers
1t also accounts for the reason wbv
both of the Hartford City newspapers
took sides with the vets and left the
drys without an organ, resulting in the
drys starting a paper of their own
few days ago in order to have a chance
to place their side of the controversy
before the people.
Besides all of this, the vets in Black
ford county have the undivided sup
port and assistance of the Berghoff
brewery Of Ft. Wayne This is the
brewery that is owned by Steve Elem
ing. and it sells nearly all the beer that
is sold in Blackford county Fleming
mas Blackford county by the throat
about as effectively as he has Allen
county, and when he says the word
Blackford county usually has to Jump
through" just like Allen county. This
means much to the vets of Blackboard
county, and if they win at today's cleo
ton the victory will be due as much to
the influence of Fleming and his brew

the country, and the plant that it will
erect in Gary is to be its western dis
