About fifty delegates gathered at the

work and the outlook for the future.

seen a white man before. An invita-

OF PAPER IN
JEOPARDY

An interesting battle will now be
fought with Mayor Knots and certain
Gary democratic politicians ranged
against snyder brothers.. the manag-
ers of the Gary Evening Post. the sup
posed organ of the city administration.
The prize is the Post-or at least its
editorial control.
While the opinion has been general
that Knots dominated the Post. recent
events seem to indicate that the young
Snyder boys have given him a merry
chase ever since last winter, when they
came to Gary from Ohio, invested mon
ey into the plant, rehabilitated it, re-
vised the papers policy. The Post was
a revival of the old Northern I%ndianan,
which Mayor Knots killed off in order
to eliminate his early editorial sup
porter, Thomas f. Costello.
After the Indianan was laid in the
grave for a few months it was revived
as a daily last fall under the new name
of the Post. Brothers A. F. and Tom
and a number of south enders financed
the venture. with F. Fitzpatrick of the
Chicago American as editor, and Thorn
as Cannon, a well known Chicago
newspaperman. as editorial writer.
However, the Knots brothers found
that running a newspaper is a hard
working proposition, so Brother A. F.
got busy last winter and the Snyder
brothers came in from Ohio, bought the
controlling interest in the stock and
began to change it's plans. However,
Mayor Knots stipulated in a contract
declared to have been drawn by by his
brother, it is said. that he should have
editorial control for five years. He got
it for about five months and hen Editor
H. b. Snyder put his foot down on
some things and began to show that
he would not stand for certain phases
Cane Stand for Certain Things.
1t is said that the Snyder brothers
did not mind supporting the admins
t~ration, but they drew the line on GER
tain things and were soon attacking
| the notorious Seventh avenue franchise
and one of the democratic aldermen,
NJ. n. Castleman. They refused to be
the political friends of certain of the
south end divekeepers, and this won
them further emnity.
Then a row occurred between the
Snyders and Mr.. Cannon, who was sup
posed to be Mr.. Knots personal repre-
sentative on the paper. AS Mr.. Cannon
is a clever political writer he was APP
pointed chief of the Gary democratic
press bureau at a fat salary.

FUNCTION.

One of the charming events of the
week was a dinner at which Mrs. Eliza

at her home. 406 South Holman street,
complimentary TO the bridal party who
will serve at the wedding of her son,
Ernest. and Miss Anne Roepke The
only guests were the members of the
immediate families and bridal party.
They were invited to a 6 O'Clock dinner
and at the appointed hour were ush-

A PRETTY

One of the leading society eveirs OF
the week will be the marriage of Miss
Anna Roepke and Ernest Meter which
will be solemnized this evening at the
home of the bride in Michigan avenue.
Only the members of the immediate
families, the relatives and a few init
mate friends have been invited to be in
attendance. A bridal reception will fol-
low the ceremony when a supper will
be served and the remainder of the
evening devoted to the congratulations
Of the young people. The home has
been very beautifully arranged with
decorations Of potted palms, ferns and
cut flowers carrying out the brides
dainty colors. The young people have
received many beautiful and valuable
gifts in cutglass, silver and china from
their friends and relatives.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fred kaufman returned
to their home in Hammond yesterday
afternoon from their wedding visit in
New York city and other eastern
points. They were absent from Ham
mond just a week.

has already been approached by GER
ain leaders on the matter of his can
didacy for governor. 1t is further un-
derstood that he has refused to commit
himself on the matter at this time.
The career of Crumpacker in con-
gress will be watched with special in
terest. In view of the fact that he was
prominently mentioned for the speak
ership in the event of the election of
a republican congress, it is possible
that he will now be chosen the minori-
ty leader of the house.
Another interesting phase of the sit
uation is the fact that Crumpacker
and State Chairman Lee of the repub-
1ican committee will probably have the
disposition of all of the federal pat
ronage in Indiana.
Crumpacker is very close to Presi-
dent Taft, and it is believed that Presi-
dent Taft will take his recommended
tions as to %postofhce and other fed
eral appointments.

CAN'T TELLS
HIS SIDE
Of STORY

The Indiana Steel ompany's alleged
policy OF locking up the vote in the
Gary plant on election day is given as
the reason for democratic defeat in
Lake county. This was the gist of a
resume of the election by John A.
Gavft, democratic county chairman.
this morning. Mr.. Gavit is confident
that enough votes, 5000 at least, were
held back in Gary to defeat Peterson
and the state and county tickets in
Lake county. BY a similar method he
says about three hundred votes were
suppressed in the Standard district
Mr.. Gavit was not inclined to stand
on his hind feet and roar" at the out
come. 1t is true he repeated the ia
nous words. "it might have been,' with
considerable. emphasis, infection and
regret. but not so much so that he ap-
peared heart-broken over the result.
Rejoice Over State Returns.
Mr.. Gavit while disappointed. con
sfdered he reduced majorities as a
moral victory for the democrats. He
was extremely hopeful this morning
that the final count would show Rohde
within only a few hundred votes from
the goal, and Peterson with very much
less than a thousand votes behind
Crumpacker. So confident was he on
the latter score that he offered to bet
a whole outfit of a mans wearing ap-
parel that C~rumpacker would not car
ry Lake county by a thousand votes.
The regret that the county chairman
experienced over the defeat was in
some measure relieved by the returns
from Indianapolis relative the state
n legislative tickets. With the ex-
ception of the tenth congressional dis
trict, Indiana is now a democratic
stronghold, with a democratic admin
istration, a democratic Legislature, and
next January it will have two demo
cratic United States senators.
And in this democratic host, Crum-
packer, according to a facetious writer
is the only republican c~omebacker.

An Important Place.

The vote in West Hammond was 40S
in the recent election. The vote on the
south side was 256 while the vote on
the north side was 1872. This makes
a total vote of 4OS. OF this number
about So were republican and 1923 demo-
cratic. West Hammond is coming to
be considered an important little nook
in Cook county from a political point
of view.
