Editor LAKE COUNTY TIMES,
Hammond. Ind.
my Dear Mr.. Parry: I presume
that it is one of the penalties of
holding office that the officehold-
er must take all kinds of abuse
from both friend and enemy, wheth-
er just or unjust.
L am willing to take my share
and say nothing If l believe that
the criticism comes after full in
formation has been secured. and IL
/ felt that this was the case now
would not write or say a word,
but I fes1 that you have been I'M
posed upon. and have not been Civ
en- the true state of facts with
relation to the situation regarding
the proposed legislation for the
superior court of Lake county.
soon after 1 came here l let it
be known. without any. equivoca-
tion or attempt at concealment,
that l was in favor of an addition
al Judge at Hammond. but that
was also in favor of a court at
Gary, as 1 believed that the crowd
ed condition of the court docket of
the superior court justified this
action on the part of the legisla-
ture. This was the argument
made before the committees. did
not in any way give either Ham
mond or Gary the best of it. but
urged upon the committee the
necessity of giving Lake county
relief, so that the litigants might
have their cases tried within a rea-
sonable time.
Under the circumstances. you
cannot blame me for being sur
prised at the deliberate false state
ments that have been made regard
ing my position, and that the state
ments have been made simply be-
cause / refused to support the
Hammond bill and oppose the Gary
bill.
Il am sincere in believing that
the best interests Of the people de-
mand the establishing of additional
courts. and this was the burden of
the argument made when Ham
mond secured its superior court,
and l assisted in securing the pas
sage of the Lake superior court
bill, and did as much as any other
citizen of Lake county. Take the
courts to the people has always
been the battle cry in favor of the
establishment of superior courts.
"The entire opposition to the
Hammond measure has been caused
by the mistakes and misleading
statements made by persons from
Hammond. and now they are try
ing to avoid the consequences of
their mistakes by placing me in a
false position.
I'm writing you this letter 1 am
making no apology for my position,
and am perfectly willing to stand
the consequences of my acts, and
would not write you were it not
for the fact that I think you have
been mislead and not been correct
ly informed as to my position: 9TH
erwise I should not write you.
am perfectly willing to be judged
but not on the statements of one
side of the case.
Il trust that you will set ms
right through the columns of youl
paper, if in no other way than bs
the publication Of this letter, ant
great oblige.
Yours very sincerely.

Monday. Lake Acounty farmers will be
on the qui vive for any new develop

seems certain and that is that the
price to be paid to the farmer
for milk will not be dictated by the
New York board of directors of the
Borden Milk company this spring, as 1t
has been in the past.
Want More for MIX.
The farmers are prepared to demand
half cent per quart increase for regu-
lar shippers, and they also propose to
demand that the bottling plant shipper
shall receive more for his milk. The
bottling plant shipper today nets only
20 cents per quart for his milk, while
the direct shipper nets at present Is
cents. The new association proposes to
equalize the prices, and to demand an
increase which will amount to half a
cent more per quart to all.
his ud4A-Ceul increase the producers
declare, will not warrant an increase
by the dealers in Chicago to more than
s cents per quart for milk.

Smuggling Chinese.

Australia is perturbed by the dis.
coveries of Mr.. Bachelor, the com.
monwealth minister for external at.
fairs. who has been inquiring into the
illegal influx of Chinese. There is a
wealthy organization in China with
agencies in all the principal Australian
ports and with the connivance OF
ships officers the systematic snug
Cling of Chinese into Australia has
been carried on for a long time.
The ships trading between Hong
kong and the Australian ports have
been SO cunningly supplied with false
bulkheads, walls and floors that hid
ing has been provided for 80
Chinese stowaways on a single voy-
age. Ship cooks have been secretly
paid to supply tho ~stowaways with
food.
The trade is very profitable, as Aus
tralia is only . few days steaming
from China and many thousands of
Mongolians are always ready to pay
large sums and run all sorts of risks
to get to the land Of gold.
