Farmers Institute. enough people were
present to enjoy the program and make
the evenings preparation worth while
The address of Professor Allen of IN
dianapolis on Doing Things" was es
peclally entertaining and instructive
and Mr.. Allen advanced some ideas and
theories that will be of practical value
to those who heard his lecture. Pro-
sessor Allen endorsed the manual
training idea of the present day in the
public schools, claiming that it is prae-
tice and not so much theory that is
wanted during the present day If Amer
lea is to keep her place amongst the
foreground of the nations
The institute closes today, and al
though the weather has ben very nm.
favorable to large attendance. the
present institute has been a very sue
cessful one from all angles.

T IND DEAD

Corpse Discovered in Aban-

Three Days for Funeral.
Great old road, that Erie.


1t ways are like Bret Harte,s heath
en- Chinee-dark and mysterious
But never in all it's history and in
all the variety of criticisms that have
been showered on the old junk road
has there been one like the story told
as follows by the Huntington News
Democrat:
Three days and three nights. while
sorrowing relatives waited and won
dered that not even~the dead should be
given uninterrupted transportation,
corpse lay in abandoned express
car in the local Erie yards this week
As a result funeral which was to
have ben held Wednesday was post
poned because no dead man appeared
to take the important role in the cere-
monies. Furthermore, there is con-
sternation in railroad and express cir
cles. Several jobs are in imminent
danger. The incident is one of the
most remarkable that ever occurred in
the history of the Erie. The corpse
passed through, or rather, arrived at
this city Tuesday evening en- route
from Chicago to New Jersey. It seems
that it was the only charge of an ex-
press messenger who had bene left in
cars of a Wells Fargo express car on
train IA When the trai narrived in
Huntington it was noticed that an
arch bar on the express car was brok-

deceased who, in his involuntary and
perpetuatAd silence was unfortunately
unable to give warning of his distress.
He went with the car to the rip track,

indianapolis, Ind, Jan. z2.-Some fell
low who is an expert at getting certain
people to put on the sof- pedal in a
poltlcal way can get a job right aow
by applying to certain well known
leaders of the democratic party The
soft pedal is very much desired for
those democrats who are going about
now crying that Thomas Taggart is to
be the next United States senator If tho
legislature is democratic Since, State
interview at Washington early this
week that Taggart was the man for
United States senator, the boom has
spread like wild fire among the friends
of Taggart. and those who have never
been so close to Taggart and who are
hoping for the best for the democrats
party, are trembling with fear
Fenr Taggart Much.
To say that some Of the democrats
who do not worship Iaggart. as a
demigod are fearing that the Taggarr
talk will do the party much harm in
the election of legislature is putting
it mildly. In fact. if the Taggart talk
keeps up it is feared it will require
some drastic efforts to turn the next
legislature to the democrats Even
this early the talk has set in among
the democrats that If the next legisIa-
ture is republican the chances are that
a statewide prohibition amendment
will be put through. This talk is put
out in spite of the fact that the Anti
Saloon League has declared that tho
question shall be kept out of politics

Because OF Opening of
New Thoroughfare.

The opening and paving of State Line
street is expected to have great ef
feet on real estate values in the near
future There have been a number of
Hammond people who have speculated
in State Line street corners, and in
the event of the opening of the street
these will be greatly increased in value
1t is believed. however, that the
greatest increase in values viii come to
the property on Plummer avenue, State
street and Sibley street between Hoh-
man street and State Line street
The trouble with the property on
these streets is that they are stub END
streets that lead to nowhere and there
is nothing to take the traffic over them
Consequently. business, which always
seeks locations where the stream of
traffic is the greatest, went over to
Holman street and East State street,
which did lead somewhere.
Now that State Line street is about
to be opened it is believed that State
street, especially, will take on new
activity. and this will be true, especial
ly, if the city officials of Hammond and
West Hammond use foresight enough
to have the street opened through to
the north side.
No Live Ones.
The trouble is that the business men
on West State street are so dead to
the possibilities of the operinf of
State Line street that they have done
nothing to encourage the opening of
the street by seeing the officials of
both the village and the city of Ham
mond and urging them not to take any
hal fway measures in the opening of
the street.
There are one or two live ones, how
ever, who are urging that the street
be at least opened north to Gostlin
street, even if it is Thought inadvisa-
BILE at the present time to pave it any
farther north than Plummer avenue.
Once the street is declared open it
can never be blocked by the building
of factories and Hammond and West
Hammond would be assured of another
north and south thoroughfare that
could eventually be extended as far
north as Indiana boulevard at Roby and
as far south as Munster

The men who were fined in Judge
Prest's court would never have gotten
into the trouble they did If the mayor
had stood firm in his determination to
keep the saloons in the Standard dis
trict closed during the strike.
The men were all in Victor Kahn's
saloon and had become intoxicated.
They got into a quarrel with the sa-
loonkeeper and a fight resulted, which
developed into riot before the matter
was finally stopped.
Attorney W. ]. McAleer was the spe-
ney H. w Grove defended the three
men. The riot occurred day before
yesterday.
Very Quiet Today.
The situation at the Standard Steel
Car plant today has been very quiet.
The saloons are, however. running in
full force, and it is understood that
they are to be permitted the customary
liberties tomorrow. AS today is pay
day at the plant, it is feared that there
will be drunkenness and trouble to-
morrow
A report has gained circulation in
Hammond that the treasurer of the
strikers has skipped out of the city
with about $500 of the funds that were
to be used in carrying on the strike
but this report cannot be verified. In
fact. Mr.. Douglas of the plant says that
he does not believe it is true.
The opinion seems to be that the
movement al the Standard plant is more
of socialitsic movement than it is a
strike. This is the opinion that was
expressed by Harry Slough, the state
labor commissioner, after he had in
vestigated the matter. 1t also proba bly,
accounts for the fact that the local
union men have not given the strikers
any support.
The applications the men are re-
quired to sign to become members OF
the striking forces are socialistic il
not anarchistic. in their tone. They de-
clare that it is time for the laboring
man to take possession of the earth
and the machinery of production.
They say the old motto, "An honest
days wage for a fair days work
should be abolished and the entire
wage system should be abolished.
