ROME, Nov. 1O.-When King
Victor Emanuel gets through with
the Turks over in Tripoli, he may
find his hands full at home. for
the large Socialist element in the
Italian parliament is going to sec
that the government does the fair
and square thing with Tripoli and
Turkey. They fought the idea Of
going to war over Tripoli in the
first place, contending that the
money had better be spent on the
poor and ignorant peasants in
southern Italy.
If the government refuses to lis
ten to the pleas of the socialists
there may be another European
kingdom overturned, and the
worlds first. socialistic republic
established, says Leonida Bissolati
socialist leader, who would prob
ably be elected president of the
socialistic republic.
Ernesto Nathan is champion of
the new Rome and new Italy, in
which the church and state shall
be completely separated.

A SIGH FOR THE OLD.

Gary is lacking in one respect, one
that makes its people who come from
elsewhere home sick occasionally. This
lack is the absence of anything old in
the new city.
In Gary you can't go down the street
and see any moss-covered old homes.
Everything is brand new, spick and
span. There is not even an old tree
that is hoary. They talk about pio-
neers and the Oldest settler came to
town a little over Ave years ago. Real
estate men take visitors up to the
Icleared sand land near the South Shore
tracks. Then with awe they say:
THAT old shack there Is a relic of the
pioneer days. That's where Tom
Knots use to live.
And that shack has seen but five
