TALK OVER

Hammond Business Men
Talk Over the Needs of the
City and Decide They Can
not Take the Name Com
mercial Club of Hammond.

The members OF the Hammond Bust
ness Mems association held a meeting
in the parlors of the Hotel Majestic
1as4 evening and talked over the needs
of the city
The proposition to change the name
was again taken up. and it was decided
to postpone the consideration of this
matter until the next regular meeting
OF the association.
1t has been discovered that there is
already a commercial club in Ham
mond, and SO the association could not
take the name of the Hammond Com
mercial club.
1t is now proposed to call the associa-
tion the Hammond Chamber of Com
merce. and 1T is expected that this
change will be made at the next regu-
lar meeting of the association
Committee Appointed.
A committee was appointed to make
recommendations to the club along this
line, and is as follows: DR.. H c. Gro
man, Joseph Weis. John Glennon. otto
Knoerzer. William ]. WINERY and Geo.

The question of good roads was also
taken up, and it was decided to an
point committee to see If something
could not be done to have the road be-
tween Hammond and Chicago put in
good condition.
1t has been discovered that most Of
the automobilists who formerly came
through Hammond have been compelled
10 take another route in order to reach
the districts south of the city. The
committee to take up the matter of
good roads is as follows: John Glen

They WON'T
STAND FOR
F. B0UGH

The people of West Hammond are
more than pleased in the action that
was taken to prevent the unspeakable
Frank Bough from running a saloon in
the village across the line.
This is taken as evidence that the
village will not stand for such char
acters as Bough. Bough's saloon has
been closed, and 1t is understood that
under no circumstances will he be per-
mitted to get license in West Ham
mond
1t Is presumed that he left Gary
because the people over there would
no longer stand for him, and now that
he has been driven out of West Ham
mond it is a matter of conjecture as to
where he will next try to inf1ict himself
upon law-abiding neighborhood

The stockholders of the Calumet

that there have been further sales in

the prospects, and it is expected that

Representatives From Var

Return From Important
Meeting Held Yesterday at
South Bend.

Lake county took an important posi-
t1on in the good roads congress held
In South Bend yesterday. The fact
developed at the meeting that Lake
county has over 800 miles of improved
roads to Porter county's 200 and La
Porte county's 120 miles. 1t further
developed that it cast over $4,000 a
year to keep the Lake county roads in
repair.
This pointed out the great defect
in the building of roads in this locality.
They are built in such a manner that IL
costs more to repair them than it does
to build them originally. The fact
was brought out that IL our roads are
built better in the first place they

Small Audience Listened to High
Glass Entertai nment.

Those who failed to attend the vic.
lin recital at the Bijou last evening
missed one of the finest things that
was ever given in the city. The
Tribune reporter is NO musical critic
but will say that the entertainment
was the finest he ever heard in its
line and deserved a packed house.
The fact that the house last night
was SO small will probably result in
Bismarck being cut out of the tour

Those who 'braved the coolest night

Not just now, perhaps, but in day

a ,et-up in the snow fall-a clearing of
the weather-it will be we'll for the
property owners to make a systematic
effort to rid the walks of snow. And
as for nonresident property owners
there ought to be no hesitancy In
reaching these people ALSO. All

of expense necessary to make it pcs
sible fer the pedestrian to- get about
the It is a glazing fact that some of
those who are most able to pay a
few dollars during the winter, months
to keep their walks shoveled off are
the most neglectful of their duties.
This should not be, and the city all
thtroties, it is hoped, under the new
ordinance, will be able to reach all
property owners and at least make
the effort to make our city thorough

This is a good record for the sher-

MOTOR CAR TOUR IS
PLANNED FOR SUMNER
PRIZES FOR GOOD ROADS SAID TO
HAVE eEENGooD BUSINESS
IN MINNESOTA.
Tour for 1910 Will Extend Farther
West Than Did the Last One -
Stricter Rules to 0o lnforced.

Prospects for a motor tour to cover
Minnesota and the two Dakotas during
1910 were never brighter and it is
possible that such & contest Will be
held under the auspices and direction
of the Minnesota State Automobile
association. While no route is map
ped out, motorists have talked of the
matter in general, way and agree
that such a contest would prove bene-
fetal.
The little Glidden tour from Min
neapolis to Fargo proved such sue
ceses during the last year that some
plans for charging upon it so as to
take in more of North Dakota and a
large part of South Dakota have been
Undertaking.. II support can be gain
ed from motoring organizations in the
territory Through which the proposed
routs is to be laid, there is little
doubt that the contest will be a real
ity during the coming season.
That rules ystrioter than those EN-
forced on the little Glidden which
took place in August of last year, will
be inaugurated Is probable, inasmuch
as too many perfect scores in the
recent contest rendered the selection
Of winners a difficult task. So close
were some Of the contesting cars
that the amount of gasoline used was
found necessary to determine the
winners. TN
Another important feature, should
the tour be held, will interest the
good roads enthusiasts. During the
Last tour "a trophy was offered the
county through which the tour pass
ed which prepared the most ideal
tjhoroughfares. Several counties
strived hard for the honor and, as a
result, Minnesota roads were greatly
improved. It is expected that by ex-
tending this offer in the event of a
similar tour SO as to include wider
section, will be a great boom IN road
:betterment throughout the north
west.

riage to John Allen Graham CT Bis

o'clc'-k in the evening at the family

CULATlON.
Means The supptrt Of Many Families
and Consequently Lots OF Money for
Merchants and Others.

While the fact Is not pleasant to
relate that the Bismarck Daily Trib-
une. is not yet ON the right side of
the ledger and its expenses in build
ing up q Missouri Slope newspaper
during the hast fear have exceeded
it's revenues, We are pleased with the
increased patronage during the past
few months and The evident desire and
intention OF the people of the western
part of the state to ultimately make
the Tribune 4 greater instrument for
the up4building of this region by their
increased support and encouragement.
As a Bismarck institution the Trib-
une Is certainly deserving of the SER
ious consideration Ct the merchants
Of this city, - its payroll is worth
while. During tho last year the Bis
marck Tribu1e's weekly expense bill
-checks issued every seven days
have equalled $1,000 = week. This
means a large number OF families
supported by this manufacturing in
stitution.
The Tribune reaches over eighty.
five per cent of the people of Bur-
leigh county, larger percentage
than that in the city-and that is
why its advertising columns are val
liable and why more people can be
reached daily and weekly through
this source for much less money
than in any other manner.
