TRIES TOGET
IN AGAIN
Colored Resort Keeper, Aft
er Selling His Place, Now
Attempts to Purchase Lot
on Which He Wants to
Put Up a Building.

Since the resort which David John
son made notorious on Washington
street, near Seventeenth avenue. has
attempting to purchase another lot on
the corner of Washington street and
Fifteenth avenue, and ono on Broad
way. according to information given
yesterday to THE TINES.
The whole community in the neigh
borhood of Johnson's former place re-
joiced when they learned that his
place had been sold through Harry
King and were glad to get rid of the
undesirable character. Now, however.
many of the people of the south end
are fearing that this man will establish
another business and every effort is
being made to block the sale of any
property to him.
In the event that Johnson does Sc
cure holding again the south end in
Gary, many Of the reform element OF
his race point out that IT will be i'm
possible for him to secure another IL
cense with which to conduct saloon
as he has been convicted of enough IL
| legal acts to prevent him from ever
securing a license again in this state
| These men who will not have their
names published at the present time
say tina tthey will do the same thing
to Charles Jackson and Walter Piper
IN case these men ever apply for IL
| censes five months from now when the
remonstrance will have expired.

tion for a recount of the ballots cast
