Yesterday Frazier had wonderful
success in disposing of $1,000 in dia-
monds among his friends in Gary. One
south side man purchased a stone cost
ing 5000 alone. Frazier's sales in Gary
since he has been connected with the
nrm have now amounted to several
thousand dollars, and he has been com
piimented by the Chicago firm as one

the main street in Miller and the main
north and south street in Miller and the
main north and south street in Gary are
four miles apart.
1t is shown that there is two and ONE
half miles of vacant and unimproved
territory between the two cities The
intervening territory is composed of
sand dunes and waste lands. 1t is
shown that there is now enough terri
tory in the limits of Gary to ACCOMMODATES

1t is claimed that the inhabitants
of Miller have never enjoyed any bene-
fits from the building and growth of
Gary.
The fourth reason given is that the
prosperity of Miller and Gary will not
be endangered without annexation.
The fifth reason for opposing annexa-
ton is that it will not be in the in

Miller. Although the case was filed in

STATEMENTS of FACT.
In the preliminary statements of the
complaint which has been drawn ur
by Attorneys Crumpacker and crun,.
packer of Hamond, assisted by Attor-
neys Ballard and stanton of Gary. the
attorneys for the REALTORS set up their
premises in several statements OF fact.
1t Is related that the remonstrance
bears the names of practically seventy
five per cent of the owners of property
In the town of Miller; that the TERRITORY
included within the corporate limits
of the town of Miller is almost all nm
plated; that there are eight sections
of land in the town of Miller of which
only one is plated; that the entire
| western boundary of Miller forms a
part of the eastern boundary of Gary.
that there are no pated lands in the
town of Miller within a mile of the
lMiller-Gary corporation line: that there
are no plated lands in the town of
Gary within mile of the Gary Miller
cooperation line; that most of the plated
lands in Miller are unimproved and
were plated by spectators years ago
when the lots were sold to people
throughout the country, many of whom
connot be located and finally that the
plated section of Miller does not COM
prise more than eighty acres.
| ON WHAT THEY ARE BASED.
These statements of facts, preceded
/ by the statement that the Gary city
| council on the twenty sixth day of jan
nary, 1910. duly adopted and passed an
ordinance anexing the town of Miller,
together with a copy of the ordinance,
are then made the basis upon which
four reasons for oposing the annexation
are advanced
| The first reason advanced is that an
| nexation is not necessary to the pros
perity to the town of Miller 1t is re-
lated that there are 14O legal voters in
Miller and that the town has between
500 and 600 Inhabitants
These people have been able to pro-
vide police and fire protection, schools
and schol houses and that there is no
necessity for annexation in order to Sc
cure these advantages
In the second reason it is alleged
that manifest injury will result to the
demonstrators II the town of Miller is
annexed and these injuries are inumer-
ated follows:
l. The town of Miller has no in
debtedness and has $4,000 in the town
treasury The city of Gary has $780,
600 Indebtedness and a much higher
tax levy Therefore. Mi1ler's tax levy
would be raised without any corresp-
ing benefits

REAL DEMOCRACY.
Nashville Tennessean.1

"There is another thing that l
want to set myself clear upon, and
that is the right of dry States to
prohibit the shipment of liquor in
to their territory. There is q good
old Democratic doctrine of States
Rights that needs stirring up in
Washington on this point, the
States rights that will stop inter-
state commerce laws from protect
ing the liquor interests in corrupt
ing individuals against the direct
will of the people by shipping
liquor into dry territory.
Here is some real Democracy,
straight from the lips o: William
Jennings Bryan. tits Deuocratia
doctrine OF the sort that can not b.
questioned, and it's pronouncement
at Chattanooga Saturday evening
could not have been more timely.
William Jennings Bryan is not
open to charges of Inconsistency
from the liquor cohorts. He has
been a total abstainer ever since
he entered public service. His
private life is without Il blemish.
For nineteen years he studied the
liquor problem as it presents itself
in the United States without COM
hitting himself. And now, in the
ripeness of his judgment, he speaks
and speaks in manner which will
command attention from ocean to
ocean.
Mr.. Bryan stands for a Demo-
cratic party freed from the grasp
of the corrupt liquor power. He
has denied any intention to make
prohibition a national issue, and
states that when he took his stand
against liquor many of his warm
est friends deserted him. But the
injustice of allowing outside States
to food dry State with liquor i'm
pressed Mr.. Bryan 80 forcibly that
he could not keep si'entsny longer.
Hecould not endnrethe indgnities

liquor interests which sueer at the
rights Of States aud debanch pro-
hibition territory from behind

AGAINST NIGHT STUDIES,
/ heokuk (Iowa) Gate City,1

w
DR.. Edward S. Lawrence of BdH
ton protests against the practice q
forcing night studies on SCHOOL,
children. He calls attention to
the we'll known risk of overworkF
for grown people. He says that
men OF sense know that night work
after day of business is vitality
injurious. Yeti theirown homes
is presented almost every evening
the sublime picture Of children
porting from one to two hours over
lessons for the next day. And
while the lesson is to the child ex-
actly what the business prohl *
is to the man, We warn men of ma
sture growth agaiusr the very thing
ssehich we allow children to Go.
NT. Lawrence says further.

fifteen, has been taught to read

H Lawrence insists that there
must be shorter hours and HI alb
solute abolishment of home study
before the age of fifteen, and even
after fifteen no evening study be-
yondN an hour. To bring this
about he suggests RS necessary
condition closer cooperation of
home and school. The teacher
and parent must come closer to-

end lies in frequent conferences
between mother and teacher. The

COMING TO PASS.

As this is the Christmas season
/ thought | would write a few lines
to our beloved paper, and it you
will allow me space Tsgill avail
myself of the opportunity to talk
to the readers of The CHRONICLE.
The Lord told John to write, and
as / am indoors today I will write
the things that are on my mind.
In speaking of what We observe,
we want the Bible to be orr help
and guide, and begin with Prov.
cribs xiii 81, "For the drunkard
and the glutton shall come to pow
erty; and drowsiness shall clothe
a man with rags"
This is coming to pass in our
day. We see many of the young
of our land, by the drinking of
strong drink, destroying their use
fulness, when they could be men
capable of filing the highest sta
tions in our land and country. 1t
is sad, indeed, that many of them
are on the downward road that
leads to degradation and ruin.
Stop, young man, and old, too!
Listen to the burning words of the
Bible as they fell from the lips of
the wise man, Solomon proverbs
xiii 22) "Hearken unto thy faith
er that begat thee, and despise not
thy mother when she is old" The
truth is, many boys or young men
often show by their action that
they despise their mother when
she is old, thereby bringing gray
locks and trouble in her life down
to the grave.
Oh, my son, stop Think what
God is saying to you, Honor thy
father and mother" 1t would be
we'll with all of us to heed these
words of the blessed Lord, BE
hold, l set life and death before
you; thus life that you may live
long upon the earth and see good
days" Oh, it makes our heart
throb with pain and sorrow to see
80 many of our fellow men whose
names are on the church books
being led astray through the van
tiles and vices of the world. 1t lis
time for Gods children to come
down on their knees and pray to
the Father of love and mercy to
help US to put on the whole armor
of God and enable his children to
stand against the soul-destroying
stuff that is dragging so many
precious young men and boys
down to woe and misery.
just 80 sure as it is Gods word,
we believe the truth of it. If
persons fills drunkard's grave, he
will help to fill a DEVILS hell. Let
Paul tell you about it. Go with
US to the 9th chapter and 9th verse
and read: "Know ye not that the
shall not inherit the
of God, be not deceived;
neither fornicators, nor idolaters,
nor adulterers, nor effeminate nor
abusers of themselves with man
xind, nor thieves, nor covetors, nor
1runkards, nor revilers, nor ex-
shall inherit the king

nay never meet you in this life,

lime it must stand before the judge
IF the quick and the dead. Stop

If I see this in print, I may write
