DOUBTFUL VOTERS ON
BOTH SIDES IN SENATE
Many Are Satisfied That It Should
Be Taken Off the tSatute Books,
But That It Should Be Replaced by
Measure Similar to the One in
Force in Pennsylvania.
TIMES BUREAU
AT THE STATE CAPITAL

indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 81. - Every
day you hear something new about
the prospect for the repeal of the
county local option law until you can
scarcely make up your mind whether
it will be repealed or not.
Yesterday Senator Orndorf of Hunt
ington, Whitley and Kosciusko coun-
ties, was nearly swamped with letters
from ministers of Huntington county
urging him to oppose the repeal of the
law. 1t seemed that nearly all Of Hunt
lngton county was on his trail
Orndorf is opposed to the county To-
cal option bill and will vote for its re-
peal. He said so yesterday. But he
believes it should be replaced by al aw
similar to the Pennsylvania law, I'M
der which there is high license and all
licenses are issued by the judge of the
circuit court The judge has power to
revoke the license for any cause that
appears to him to justify revocation.
Three Democrats Don't Want RepeaI.
Senator VIII r. Wood of Lafayette
and Senator Edgar Durre of Evans
vile are outspoken in favor of the re-
peal of the county local option law.
Wood, however, wishes it replaced with
a high license law. He is not for the
straight-out repeal without condition,
but would not accept the democratic
declaration in favor of ward and town
ship local option
Durre says he is for unconditional
repeal because his county wants it. He
says he wishes to represent his people.
Senator Gonnerman of Mount Yer
non is said to be in favor of the re-
peal, also, but he is not making any
statement in regard to it.
On the other hand it is said that
there are three democrats in the SEN
ate who liwl oppose the repeal of the
county option law even as against the
democratic bill for township and ward
option. This makes it extremely doubt
full if the repeal bill can be passed
in the senate.

Times Change.

= A great change has passed over Us
: late years with regard to the man
ners OF daily life. The boy Of early
Victorian days was a ceremonious
little creature. He called his parents
Sir and madam and would never
have dreamed of starting a converse
ton at table, and scarcely of joining
In 1t. He came in to dessert, and was
given his glass of wine on condition
that he made his grave little bow to
each of the company in turn, an object
lesson in precedence which was posi-
bly, useful to him in later years, but
must have been unspeakably trying at
the time. One would not wish to see
the ceremoniousness of those times
revived, but it is possible that we are
inclined to err in the opposite direc-
ton, by forgetting that respect is due
to our relations as much as it is to
our friends.-Etiquette-U p-to-Date.

construction of the canal would offer
them another mode of shipping their
product at reasonable expense, as com
munication with the lakes would there
by be opened.
The shipping of coke into the western
territory of the country has been a
source of annoyance to the coke manu-
facturers of the United States Al
though there are extensive ovens
Throughout the western states. the ship
ping expense to Illinois and the far
western states is enormous and
amounts to millions of dollars in a year.
The location Of the ovens in Indiana
Harbor would give them close belt rail-
way communication with Chicago, lake
transportation and shipping facilities
over the trunk lines into the eastern
states. should the supply in that por-
ton of the country be diminished.
Hardly day passes that four or FIVE
trains of the coal product are not
brought to East Chicago and Indiana
Harbor over the various belt lines of
the city. Huge shipments pass through
daily into other states and must first
be switched and re-directed in the Chi
cago freight yards. The local mills use
considerable coke in their blast fur
naces and in an interview with a promi-
nent mill official yesterday, it was
stated that should the Fricke people
ship the coal from their properties to
the Harbor and produce their coke in
the Calumet region, the gas produced
and it's various by-products would more
than pay for the cost of production
Altogether the possibilities for the
contamination of the Fricke companys
ideals look very favorable and citizens
of Indiana Harbor would indeed be
overjoyed at the prospect of securing
the ovens. Local real estate men are
vitality interested in the outcome of the
Fricke crowds efforts to develop their
property Should the buildings be
erected Indiana Harbor will be given
its second boom and real estate will
once more soar in the heights attained
during the early days of the Gary boom.

Curious Rermudan Plant.

Bermuda possesses a plant of the
house leek family which has curious
properties. When the leaves begin
to shrivel and fade they put forth new
shoots, which in turn bear leaves that
continue to grow fresh and green for
many weeks. The leaves are about
four inches long, rich green in color
and Of waxen texture. If one Of the
leaves is pinned to a wall indoors it
will begin to sprout within three or
four days, be it winter or summer.
The limit of existence of the life plant
seems dependent upon the quantity of
heat and light which the plant OBJ
tains.

LIBRARIANS MEET
At SOUTH BEND
Gary's Librarian Boosts His
City Tuesday Night in
Good Shape.
MR.. BARLEY GIVES ADDRESS
Tells the South Benders Of the Good
Work That Gary Library
Is Doing.

AS usual. Gary is in the limelight.
The occasion was not an exceptional
one, but the people of the new steel
city have taken advantage of its and
have used it to advertise the city.
The librarians of northern Indiana
and southern Michigan have formed a
club for the advancement of the inter
ests they represent. 1t includes rep
resentatives from Goshen, Elkhart.
Whiting, South Bend, Michigan City,
Laporte, Mishawaka, Valparaiso, Gary,
New Carlisle. Plymouth, Logansport
and Warsaw, Ind, Dowagiac, Benton
Harbor ST. Joseph and Niles, Mich.
OF course the librarian of Gary be-
came a member. OF course he attended
the first meeting. OF course he had
something to say. OF course he said it
in a way that made the newspapers
comment on it and Gary was given the
most important consideration in the
writeups in the newspapers.
Credit to the City.
The Gary representative, who proved
to be such a credit to his city and who
has proven his allegiance TO the new
city by becoming an eternal and ever
lasting booster, was L. ]. Bailey, the
librarian.
The South Bend News had the fol-
lowing to say regarding Mr.. Bailey's
address:
"One of the most interesting talks of
the session was given by L J. Bailey.
librarian of the recently instituted
public library in Gary, the new town.
AS yet this library, but six weeks in
existence, is in the formative and col
lective stage, but it has already been
found to be of immense value Housed
in a single room, the basement under
it is used for the purpose of holding
night classes in English for the for
eign element which is so large and so
ignorant of English In this city of vast
manufacturing interests.
Describes school System.
THE city school system supplies an
instructor for these classes. which it
was originally planned to hold but
three times a week, but so large was
the attendance that the room is now
crowded to its capacity six nights in
the wee kand the library is the foun-
dation of this educational institution
which is accomplishing wonders Fol-
loving the custom which was adopted
in South Bend this winter, the Gary
library is open Sundays and Mr.. Bailey
stated that the entire day was spent
by the attendants in issuing books sup
Elementary to the courses of study be-
ing pursued by the various laborers,
and in giving general information. The
extent to which the Gary library is
utilized in this manner, the speaker
stated, could hardly be realized by one
who has not actually seen the demand
for books by all classes"
The people of Gary are very well
pleased with the advertising Mr. Bal
ley was able to give to their city, and
if there is anything more they might
have asked of him it is that he pos
sibly could have secured the next
meeting of the club for Gary. In fact.
it is rather surprising that he did not.

The Sixth Sense

DR.. Paul Carus, the editor OF the
Open Court, refers to a belief which
prevailed in the Middle Ages that the
faculty of prophetic dreams was a
sixth sense, which was outwardly indi-
Gated by the possession of six fingers
or toes. Only a searching critic NAV
have discovered that Pope Sixtus w.
is represented by Raphael in the Sis
tine Madonna as possessed Of six fin
gers; yet it is plainly visible to every-
one who takes the trouble to look for
1t. Raphael's magnificent painting OF
the marriage of the Virgin to Saint
Joseph Tin the Biera at Milan) the
groom's foot is left bare, which Incl
dent is not fortuitous, but offers the
artist an opportunity to show that Jo-
seph was a man possessed of the sixth
sense, the faculty of dream.
