A. f. Knots Returns From
indianapolis This Morn
ing and Admits That He
Ran Across Some Old
Friends During Stay.

A F. Knots Of Hammond returned
from Indianapolis this morning after
he had been basking in the sunlight of
considerable newspaper publicity The
publicity came as a result of his ad-
mitting that he would accept the nomi-
nation for the oface OF Congressman
from the Tenth district on an insurg-
ent ticket.
Mr.. Knots denied that he had gone
to Indianapolis Tor the purpose of
stirring up the animals He Said he
had just been down there with Tom
and incidentally had run across some
of his old political friends
at Is In An Awful Plight,
Knots claims to have found the state
Of Indiana in state of political in
toxication. He FOUND the republican
party in a terrible plight as result OF
too free an imbibing of ..insurgency"
Mr.. Knots said that prominent re-
publicans' at the state capital were
prophesying that the state of Indiana
will go democrAtic by $4,000 majority
and that Senator Albert j. Beveridge
would surely go down with the ship.
A state of Mind.
In view of the fact that Knots
seemed to have "a state of mind" he
was asked about his general health
and his digestion. He was furthel
catechised as to the company he KEEP
while at Indianapolis.
1t should be remembered that Knott.

CANVAS FOR
SIGNATURES
GOING ON

The canvass for signatures on the
Gary remonstrance against the annexa-
ton continues quietly and smoothly,
and with promise of rolling UP the
same percentage that was polled for
the East Chicago remonstrance. 1t is
doubtful. however, whether an effort
will be made to find every last voter.
By checking up the names on the East
Chicago remonstrance the canvassers
have the names and address of prac-
tically every voter in Hammond.
Those who sign the remonstrance are
asked to sign,two papers for the reason
that Gary passed two remonstrances,
one, annexing East Chicago when the
latter city had already annexed Ham
mond by an ordinance and a second
ordinance annexing Hammond alone

Stock Company of Capital
lists Eager to Build Line
to Crown Point.

Crown Point, April 14.-(Special.t
Although the facts are being kept
secret at this time there is every rea-
son to believe that Crown Point will
get its much needed interurban serv-
ice through other sources than the
Gary & Southern line, if the action
Of the Gary council puts quietus on
that project being successfully
finished.
This time, however, Garys terri
tory will not be invaded and it's city
officials will not have to ponder over
any perpexing questions as to wheth-
er or not it would be good thing to
have a line to the county seat and
runnin gthrough the rich country at
its southern borders, opening up a
new field of business for its mer-
chants.
RUMoRs ARE CREDITED.

JOHNSTON
TAKES RIGHT
VIEW Of It
Energetic Secretary Of Ham
mond Business Mems Club
Believes That City Should
Wake Up and Try to Land
G.. A. r. Encampment.

The question of bringing the 1911
state G.. A r. encampment to Ham
mond will be discussed this evening
from the point of a money-making
event for the city and from the ethical
results to be attained.
1t is conceded that the day will have
to be carried by those who look be-
yond their pocketbook in bringing 25,-
900 people to the city. The question
whether Hammond should go out for
the convention must practically be de-
cided this evening.
E. f. Johnston, secretary of the Bus
mess Mems association, in speaking of
the project. said today
Il am strongly in favor of taking
steps to get the 1911 state G. A r.
encampment for Hammond. and in TAX
ing this position, 1 am not counting
the net proceeds that Hammond will
have to show after it is over.
VIII Be a Gigantic Lesson.
1T will do any city good to crawl
out of its she'll occasionally and do
something that will be worth while
We could make this an occasion the
like Of which Hammond has never seen
We have a class of people here who
need to be impressed with the real
meaning of the G.. A. r. and some of
them will learn more In few days
than they would have learned in five
years. I am told that in some of the
foreign districts the flags of other ma
tionalities are thrown to the breezes
while there isn't as much as a rag of
Old Glory to be seen in the neighbor-
hood.
IF we are going to look at this mat
ter in the reflection of heap of gold
and silver dollars which the visitors
are expected to leave here. we will
be disappointed. A person might as
well ask himself why he should spend
a dollar or two for a good book just
because he has no immediate use for
the knowledge gained therefrom.
Gala Days for Hammond.
THE educational side of such an en-
campment is only one phase of it
There are others. We would set a new
standard for ourselves as a convention
city. We would set a new standard
for decoration. We would set a new
would draw to our city the leading Of
fcials and speakers of the state. A
general holiday would be declared. We
could have a manufacturers exhibition
that would be a surprise even to the
people of Hammond Boat races coult
be arranged on the river and a lake
be topped off with parade, Including
every lodge and union in the city. AL
we need is the proper amount of enthu
siasm, the financial end of it will take
] care OF itself.

oil declined to order it done regu-

Dr. Anderson made an elaborate
report on the work needed for

free and full discussion of the sub

the work to St. George street, then
down that street to 3rd.
