republic. There is not born nor an

the outcome OF that war today as were

The meeting of the city council to-
night promises to be an interesting ons
and runor has 1t today that there Will
be several sensations sprung. Just
what the nature of these sensations Is.
II is not known. but it is said that an
attempt will be made to again create
the Office of city controller.
1t is said that Mayor Knots has been
WORKING among the republican council
men for several days past 10 this end
so that In case of his death or removal
from once for any cause the appointed
controller would take his place as
mayor Just how much credence can
be given the report is not known but II

Park Board Wants Money.
The Gary park board will also ask
the council for an appropriation of ST.
oT5 for the purchase of four and one
half acres of ground between Thir-
teenth and Fourteenth avenue and
Madison and Jackson streets adjoin-
ing the Froebel school building which
will be used as south side play
ground.
Chief of Police Joseph Martin will
ask the council tonight to repeal the
present dog ordinance and pass another
giving the police the power to shoot
all stray dogs with which the city is
over run. The present ordinance only
gives the police power to catch stray
dogs and place them in the pound but
makes no provision for the pound.N
Chief Martins action in asking for a
new ordinance is simply a matter of
protection against mad dogs" and I'M
less some action is taken at once seri-
Gus results may follow at any time.

Demotraey's Opportunity.

The Democracy of the country
now has its opportunity. For fifty
years it held 1ull sway of the gov
eminent and gave the people Of
this country the fairest deal ever
known in the history Of republics.
Then Republicanism came into
power, aud under its rule and
policy of high protective duties
capitalism has flourished i'm.
measurably. gigantic combina-
tions have been made possible,
trusts have sprung into being
and grown and fattened at the
expense OF the public. There is
scarcely an article OF food or q
staple manufacture ia this country
to~uay that is not controlled by a
monopoly. Prices are liked ar
bltrarIly, competition is practi.
caliy banished.
The people endured long, but
the revolt finally came last Nov
embe:. Inc Republican party
and its policies was defeated all
over the country. A new era has
been ushered in. New York, New
Jersey and Maine executed a com.
plete political somersauit, driving
the high tariff advocates from
power. The Democratic major
tiles in Ohio and Indiana were
largely increased. West Virginia
and Nebraska returned Demo.
cratic legislatures. Massachusetts
and Connecticut elected Demo-
cratic grOvernors.
Yet this is but the beginning of
the political revolution. 1t is with
the Democracy now to live up to
its ideals and give the country
that government and legislation
which the people have demanded
at the polls. 1t is absolutely es-
sential, if the Democracy Is TO de-
serve and keep the respect and
confidence which the country has
voted to 1t, that il repeal the
Payne-Aldrich aDoMinaLlop Ii
must do this to keep tailn with
the people. Then, in 1912, it can
not help but sweep the country,
elect a president and overthrow
the Republican majority in the
Senate.

The tobacco growers of the
country have banded together for
the purpose of restricting produce
ton. They have agreed not to
plant any crop this year, in order
to be able to dispose of their sur
plus and boost prices in 1912. That
Is one OF the beauties of combina-
ton. The meat trust is doing
practically the same thing, by
housing its product in cold stor-
age. Now if the wheat growers of
the country will only get together
and rebuke bountiful providence
by failing to plant crops, in order
to raise prices, anu the wool
growers do the same, the Ameri-
can consumer will be in a fine
pickle.

The committee appointed at the last
meeting by the Hon. Mayor to get

pany, through Mr.. Bodin, reported

this same hose had been sold to other
cities at less than 81. 10 per foot, and to
the further fact that other hose COM
panles are Offering hose carrying the
same guarantee at price much lower
than offered by the Eureka Company.
therefore no hose was bought and the
Secretary was instructed to write the
various hose companies advising
them that the Council would accept
bids at its next IN Getting, reserving the
r ght to reject any and all bids.
