The number of cities which have
adopted the so-called commission form
of government continues TO increase
weekly
The commission plan abolishes the
minor elective officers and substitutes
an elective board of directors of a few
old time councils, chief executive and
members, who have full power to ap-
point all other officials and run the
town.
The plan has not only demonstrated
the superior efficiency of small
board over a large and complicated
mechanism, but has also shown that
when public servants e-e Conspicuous
ly responsible, they begin to be con-
spicuously careful. 1t would require
more than average human stamina for
an official to misbehave himself under
the commission plan, when he knows
that the whole town will instantly and
accurately locate the blame.

Especial to TIE TINES

Indiana Harbor Ind. Dec 5.-"Some
City, Believe Me- is the slogan which
will hereafter carry the name of IN
diana Harbor and East Chicago to the
four corners of the earth.
The slogan was officially adopted
yesterday at a meeting of the commit
tee on publicity appointed by the COM
mercial club of Indiana Harbor and
East Chicago, being one of a large
number submitted in response to an
advertisement for a phrase, or short
sentence. which should best typify the
Twin Cities
Mrs. Joseph J. Freeman of East Chi
cago was the winner of the $40 prize
offered by the club. A number of 9TH
were favorably considered, but the
committee finally decided that Some
City, Believe Me" possessed the most
snap, and adopted it accordingly
The committee is now planning a sort
of a tag day. in which pencils will
take the place of tags. These pencils
are to be sold by the ladies of Indiana
Harbor and East Chicago for the bene-
fit of the publicity fund of the Com
mercial club, and the money will be
devoted to advertising the Twin Cities
The pencils will bear the names IN

with the construction of several large

No other two distinct. separate cor
porations are so closely related as

kins, George f. Baker, Norman b. Ream

panies on the board and with the ex-
ceptfon of charles steele go to make up
the finance committees. J. p. Morgan a.
CO. are the fiscal agents for both cor
porations Since their organization the
capacity of each company has been
practically doubled and operating costs
have been reduced to a minimum. In
fact. the per cent of operating costs
of the United States Steel Corporation
has never been above so per cent, which
is lower than the average Industrial
corporation's In 1906 the Steel Cor
poration's operating costs were cut to
7cS per cent Harvesters operating
cost. although averaging above those
of the Steel Corporation, have shown a
marked decrease in recent years.

Mr.. Bunnell has been in Hammond
about eighteen months. When he came
his territory was rated a 60-point ter

to be a whale of an agent were ex-

that Mr.. Bunnell thought seriously of
resigning. But the head officials kept
on sending messages of cheer and en-
courag cement, but in the meantime
there was little doing. Finally Mr..
Bunnell had the situation sized up and
began to spread himself. He saw the
possibilities of the region and began
to work accordingly. The purchase of
an automobile with his own money
for the benefit of the company was one
of his first moves. It proved to be a

arrives here at 1888.
The passengers from all four of these
trains are compelled to walk to their
homes because of the lack of street
car facilities after 1915. In addition
to the passengers who come in from
the trains those in town who have oc-
casion to stay up after 1915 are COM
PEELED to walk home or hire a car
riage.
The management of the street car
company complains that the service af-
ter IL O'Clock does not pay, but the
travelling public in Hammond believes
it has the right to ask this accommo-
dation even if it does not pay.
A well-known Hammond business
man stated today that it is peculiar
that a city the size of Hammond the
cars do not run after 1915. He de-
clared that the cars ought to run at
least until 1880. In Chicago there is an
owl service all night.

East Chicago, Dec. 5-Memorial serv-
ices were conducted yesterday by the
East Chicago Elks at Berry's theatre
and the exercises were most impressive
The theatre was crowded, even the
gallery being filled and the audience
was deeply moved by the sweetness and
solemnity of the occasion. Every num-
Der was followed with wrapt attention
by those present and there was not an
inharmonious note to mar the attrac-
tiveness of the occasion
The program opened with a rendition
of Schumanns "Traumerie" played by
DeBriae's orchestry in a mastery man
ner and this was followed by a vocal
solo bv Miss Mabel Mickey. The solo
was by Thomas Adams and was entitled
They Way, Not Mine oh Lord" and was
most beautifully rendered.
The opening ceremonies by the Off

which the quartet gave a selection,

In a way the Lake county district is

like the loop territory in Chicago, for

Bunnell overcame them. Each territory
