BURK IS
NOW READY

1t is now Judge William Burk of
Gary. The plain William Burk re-
ceived his commission yesterday from
Indianapolis and henceforth the man
who has had charge of the republican
headquarters during the past two cam
paigns will bear the title of a Justice

Mr. Burk received notice of the fact
that he had been appointed to fill the
vacancy caused by the resignation of
the well known justice, p L Fitz-
gerald several days ago and since that
time he has been eagerly awaiting his
commission Either tomorrow or
Thursday he expects to leave for Crown

fore Auditor Charles Johnson, he will
then be sworn in and reay for business.
Mr.. Burk stated this afternoon that
he expected to be ready for business by
Monday at which time he will be in a
position to have cases filed before him.
For the present at least he will. es-
tablish his office in the rooms formerly
occupied by Judge Fitzgerald. He will
use the dockets and several other ma
terials formerly used by that justice in
the conduct of his Office for the time
being. The appointment of Mr.. Burk
gave general satisfaction among the
attorneys OF Gary as he is recognized
as being just and competent.

FOR LICENSE
DOUBLE Up

It has developed after studying the
applications for liquor licenses that in
addition to the two applicants for a
license in the Binzenhof bar, that there
are also two applicants for John Ben
nets saloon on Ninth avenue, for
Charles Della Chiesa on Broadway be-
tween Ninth and Tenth avenues and
also for the corner of Broadway and
Ninth
1t seems almost certain now that
there has been no error in publication
attempting to spring a coup of some
character that has not yetsebeen de-
termined. The owners of the buildings,
or lesees, who have found other appli-
cants for their buildings have not yet
figures out why the motive for another
person apply for this license.
Attorney w. H. Mathews who was
recently in Gary and who is regarded
as an authority on liquor laws states
that. there is nothing to prevent any
one that complies with the statutes in
regard age and good moral character
from getting a license anywhere. He
said however that if an outsider hap
pened to get a license in the Binzenhof
for instance that it would preclude
the possibility of the Lessee obtaining
il. This question is up TO the county
commissioners to decide which will be
granted the application and he was
positive that they will recognize the
owners of lesees of the place.

srugent sentiment in the Tenth dis
trict. as was shown at the time of the
Tenth district convention. But as far
as Is known there is no disposition Of
the part of any considerable number of
Republicans in that district to make
any fight against Crumpacker.
"A. r. Knottss of Hammond, was the
man from the Tenth district who was
asked. about the report that such a
movement was on foot in that part of
the state, and he admitted that here
was such a sentiment in existence. 1t
had been learned that Knots himself
was considering the idea of becoming
the insurgent candidate, but when he
was asked about the matter he declin-
ed to discuss 1t.
At the Republican state headquarters
it was said that nothing had been heard
of the scheme and that 1t did not sound
at all likely.
Judging from the firm hold which
Congressman Crumpacker has on the
Tenth district there does not seem to
be any chance for an opposition Re-
publican candidate for congress to get
very far lin case one should decide to
enter the field.

Col. Mayo is quoted as saying, aSome
of these men tmeaning the saloon
keepers) are vicious entirely incap-
able of running a saloon property and
should by all means be refused d Ii

that the city authorities should have

are granting these privileges"
Col. Mayo himself, who is close to
the mayor. stated that the authorities
are prepared to make the saloonkeepers
live up to the strict letter of the law
this year and no gambling. disorderly
characters or any other illegitimate
practices would be allowed in the sa-

1t is even limited that before the sa-
looms start in Gary an ultimatum will
be issued to the saloon keepers to this
effect Col. Mayo expressed the opin-

period past, that committee of three
or five unprecedented citizens with a
good knowledge of conditions be pres
ent at the meeting of the county COM
missioners when the licenses are to be
granted to demonstrate against all un-
desirables. This would be sufficient to
prevent many resorts of a criminal
nature from starting in Gary.
The better element in Gary is glad
that Mayor Knots has changed his at
titude in regard to the evils in the
city no matter what his motive maybe.
