LONG EXPECTED BILL
PUTS IN APPEARANCE
Measure Providing Second
Terms for City Officers En-
tered - Anti-Gypsey and

Palladium Bureau,
indianapolis, Jan. rs.

Just to show that they were good
1ellows, the Gary crowd allowed the
Lake county superior court bill to be
amended in the senate, yesterday, SO
as to relieve Lake county Of the ex-
pense of building new court house at
Gary, in case the bill becomes law
and Gary gets superior court.
Originally the bill required the
county commissioners of Lake county
to provide a place for the superior
court to sit, in case one is appointed,
and this gave rise to the argument
that this meant a third court house for
Lake county. Lake county already
has two court houses, circuit court
house at Crown Point that cost $780,
600 and a superior court house at
Hammond that cost 100000. And
the people did not care to be loaded
down with the burden of another
court house at Gary. So when the
Gary court bill came on for second
reading Senator Bowser, of Lake and
Porter counties, who is fighting the
battle for Gary made committee re-
port in which an amendment was Of
fered cutting out that provision for
quarters for the new court.
Gary Will BE Place.
Gary is going to furnish the place
for the court" he said, Just to show
that we are in good faith
The amendment was adopted and
the bill went to engrossment. The
next time it is called up it will be
ready for passage.
But the fact is that there is not like
1y to be any new court established for
Lake county, neither at Gary nor
Hammond This is merely guess,
but 1t looks like good one, for the
Hammond people and the Gary people
have stirred up such dirty muss ov-
er the court question that it looks
like neither side will get what it is
after The prospect is that the Gary

Representative Hay, of Vigo county,
introduced bill yesterday, that has
long been expected but which was
late in coming to the front. 1t pro-
vides for a change in the law so that
city officers may be elected to a Sec
ond term. Under the present law a
city official is not allowed to succeed
himself. He may only serve one term
OF four years, but Hays bill proposes
to change this so that he may run
again and if elected he may serve a
second term, making eight years in
