membered that "brotherly love-" so
shattered A. F. Knots republicanism
that he not only aided Tom to win his
mayoralty race in Gary but he took
part in wild Knots Becker celebra-
ton in Hammond in which speeches de-
nouncing republicans. and all that per-
tains to them. were made. The fact
should further be remembered that
Knots looked longingly and wistfully
for &C. Q. d" from the party in Lake
and Porter county inviting him to be-
come the senatorial nominee but the
message was picked up by Frank
Gavit's wireless station in Whiting.
Who He Talked To.
When Knots made the Statements
that republicans were predicting. that
Indiana would go democratic by $4,000
majority he was asked to label his
dope. The pure food laws of the state
require that political sustenance. po-
Htical mamma so to speak. should bear
a label which shall reveal its true
character so Knots was pressed for an
answer as to who the republicans is
who prophesied democratic victory by
$4,000 majority. Knots then admitted
that 1t was Joe Healing.
Joss Is Simply Disgusted.
Joe Healing is one Of the dyed-fn.
the-wool members of the disgruntled
o1d-time ring at indianapolis. 1t was
this ring which made its right to rule
or ruin SO obnoxious to the republicans
of the state that the result was the
election of Governor Marshall and a
democratic legislature year ago.
The Healing bunch is still beset with
a crouch and it seems that A. F. Knots
gravitated to that crowd as soon as he
hit Indianapolis. Having a few politi-
cal wounds to nurse himself he found
the company congenial. The result
was the talk of his insurgent candi-
dacy against Crumpacker which Is

other side joins the Potter Palmer es-
tate tract. This would give their
switch tracks free access to their prop
erty without having to cross any
streets, a valuable asset to any manu-
factory which does an extensive ship
ping business.
Now come the property owners in
Guthrie street and propose by the ex-
tension of that thoroughfare to frus-
trate this privacy which the McClintic-
Marshall people paid such high price
to obtain. and which figured SO largely
in their decision to locate IN Indiana
Harbor.
Mr.. Marshall intimated to me yester-
day., said Attorney w. B. Van Horne
that in case the road is put through
from Guthrie street his concern would
abandon their plans of putting up a
plant here, altogether. The matter of
$3.50, 900 investment is a mere bagatelle
in their general scheme. They could
better afford to hold the land and dis
pose of 1t when they find the oppor-
tunity than to build on it and be sub
.jected to interference with their switch
ing. by being obliged to cross a high
way like the one proposed. ovtr which
all the wagon traffic between Whiting
over. the public would be sorely in
convenienced well by being obliged
to cross the company's four switch
tracks. There would be tiresome de-
lays at every crossing, to say nothing
of the danger to life and limb. The
McClintic-M Marshall people do not care
what street is opened, provided 1T be
not Guthrie street. They are willing
to keep out of the controversy il that
one thorou-hfare Is taken out of it.
TT would seem a very unwise move
on the part of the city council to an
tagonize an incoming concern of the
magnitude of the McClintic- Marshall
Construction company, and believe the
committee on streets and alleys will
be brought to see it in that light. when
all the facts are presented to them. In
case he new industry, which will when
completed represent an investment OF
81, 100000 and will employ $500 men, is
prevented from locating here by any
arbitrary act, it will be seen that Indi-
ana Harbor would receive a. black eye
from which it would take some time
to recover. by the reports that new in
dustries are liable to meet with coun-
ell opposition, if brought to this re-
gion."
The choice of an outlet for the new
road to Whiting seemed to lie between
Parrish avenue and Guthrie street
with an even chance for either, until
this McClintic- Marshall feature of it
developed. 1t is believed, however
that this will prove a potent factor in
influencing the decision OF the council
men in favor of Parrish avenue.

Dreamed of Accidents.
The death of Rowland is the first ac-
cident of any nature that has taken
place on building. Only yesterday af-
ternoon Ed Earl, the engineer of the
hosting engine remarked to Inspector
Peasny OF the work: Just think of 1t
we haven't had the least accident on
the building SO far"
A number of the men on the job this
morning recalled how they came to
work sometime ago telling of dreams
of accidents that they had had. Stan
baugh told OF one Of the men whose
wife objected to his going to work on
particular morning because she had
dreamed that he had been killed.
Stanbaugh himself said that he had
dreamed sometime ago that he had
been caught by the boom and hurled to
the ground His dream came very
near being true yesterday.

Immediately after the accident tho

WELLkNOWN
| IN THIS CITY
Son of Nashvillian, Who
Was Pardoned Yesterday
by Gov. Patterson After
Killing Senator Carmack,
Well Known in Gary.

Duncan B. Cooper. Jr, the son of
Colonel Cooper of Nashville. who was
granted an unconditional pardon by
Governor Patterson after he had been
found guilty of killing Senator z. w.
Carmack, has been in Gary ever since
the trial of the case.
Young Cooper was known in Gary
as fast young fellow. who had the
capacity of spending more money than
he could make. He lived on the fat
of the land and his associates were all
known to be sporty
Just before he left Gary he cashed
a check for $50 at the cigar store of
SAKE & Savage. and the check was not
honored at the bank. This occurred
about a month ago and he has not been
seen in Gary since. 1t is commonly
believed that his father is good for the
amount and that he will square up the
account and SO no warrants have been
issued for the arrest of the young fell
low.
Witness in Gary.
A number of the witnesses in. the
trial were companions of Cooperss, and
it is believed that they were sent to
Gary to avoid any further trouble over
the alleged shooting.
All of the drafts that came to Gary
to Cooper were from his fathers bank
in Nashville and this leads the mer-
chants in Gary who have accounts with
Cooper to believe that his father will
make them good
The following is the story. of the
pardoning of Cooper as 1t appeared
in the morning papers:
Nashville, Tenn, April 13-Colonel
d.. B. Cooper. convicted slayer of SEN
ator E. w. Carmack. was granted an
unconditional pardon by Governor Pat
terson this afternoon.
The manner of the release OF the
colonel was dramatic. The state SUI
preme court had just affirmed the trial
courts sentence of Cooper to twenty
years imprisonment.
At the same time the court had hand
ed down another decision reversing the
trial verdict against Robin Cooper, the
coloneis son, and remandIng his case
for new trial. Robin Cooper has been
convicted jointly with his father and
had been sentenced for a similar term
of twenty years.
In both cases the supreme court was
divided. majority holding against
the elder Cooper and in favor of his
SON.
Takes Verdict Out of Judges Mouth.
1t was while Chief Justice Beard was
reading his dissenting opinion in the
case OF the colonel that Governor Pat
terson. close political and personal
friend of the Coopers wrote the full
pardon for the father. saying:

record. having read all the testimony.

duty of every man to get mao the game

The man who shrks this duty with

class of human beings does not know

Sand-Ciay Roads.

Last year there were several expert

The Herald hopes to see the county
authorities this year push the good
roads work into every corner of the
county, completing many of the main
roads and reaching out into the cross
roads, that every community may have
its good, smooth hard roads not only
for market purposes, but that the fam
lily may enjoy the pleasure of easy
transportation to school, church and
neighbors. Good roads promote relig-

This should be taken as conclusive
evidence of the value of good roads

Those who remember the patriarch

from the Mckinney Courier-Gazette:
Suppose Peter Smith had sulked and
quit when he was trying to start Fort
Worth on the upward march, because
others were pessimistic and held back
when they could not see the way clear
for two dollars to come back tomor-
row for one dollar invested today?
But that great town builder never
tired. He was always persistent and
was amply rewarded by seeing the
struggling village develop into the
hustling city that now always gets
whatever she goes after. His example

its optimism, and the inclination to

The Neutral Sex.

In a two-column editorial in the

Brisbane discusses the possibilities of
the appearance of a neutral or third

be a solution of the overpressure on

While Mr. Brisbane is splendid

is very palpable that he has "oyer-
