interurban connections with East
Gary Valparaiso Chesterton and La
Porte by the Gary Connecting rail-
way. Hobart, Liverpool, New Chi
cage and eventually Valparaiso by
the Gary, Hobart and Valparaiso
Traction Company; and Merrillvflle
and Crown Point by the Gary and
Southern Traction company. By
means of the Chicago lines Ham
mond, Whiting and East Chicago
have interurban connections with
the Illinois metropolis.
There are just as promising inter-
urban routes in a Hammond-Crown
Point-Lowell line or in Joliet
Crown Point line and the day is not
far distant until Gary or Hammond
are connected with Lafayette. AS 1t
is, Lake county is coming rapidly to
, the front as an interurban center and
the day is not far distant until the
Indianapolis traction terminal center
will rank second to one that will be
here at home.

SOME MOLLYGUSH.

Thomas R. Marshall, governor of
Indiana. in lauding newspapers at
tempted to raise a fund for children,
says: 1T is better to make baby
smile than to gain the homage of
mankind
The trouble is that a baby cannot
vote or do anything to advance Mr..
Marshall's presidential candidacy.
Outside of that they are all right and
the governor though he hasn't any
children is to be praised for his per-
spicacity.
There Is a good deal of proolama-
tion mollygush about it at that. Sup
pose that the workers of the world
spent their time in chucking a baby
under the chin to make it smile in
stead of doing great things for man
kind and the world, ii would be z
sorry sort of place to live il
wouldn't it?

OUR NEW TRACTION CENTER

Gary already has two interurban
railways and three more coming from
as many directions, are buildings to-
wards the city. The South Shore and
the Gary and Interurban are Gary's
two lines at present. South Bend
and intermediate points are linked to
it by the South Shore as are Ham
mond and Chicago. The Gary and
Interurban connects the steel city
and Hammond.
Completion of lines now building
towards the steel city will in a few
months give all north Lake county

mate of the police department of that
city. In the other cities of the Calu-
met district there are not over a few
hundred negroes altogether.
The influx of negroes to Gary was
the work of certain labor contractors
who brought large numbers of them
from the crowded negro districts of
Chicago.
The bad niger" has come with
the law-abiding ones with the result
that Gary has become the dumping
ground for hundreds of criminal
negroes from all parts of the world.
Negroes are gregarious and no
sooner is a colony of them firmly es-
tablished in city than the whole
negro world knows about it and that
city becomes the objective point of
every itinerant negro in the country.
Probably one half of the murders
in Gary have been committed by
colored criminals. A large proper
ton of the other crimes and disorders
are attributed to them. They are
known to be a shiftless race and any
community is better off without
them.
OF course there are good negroes
among the bad but the so-called low
bred foreigner has more latent posi-
bilities in him than a negro ever had

GOODBYE, MR.. LEE. II

After having made the statements
that President Taft if renominated
could not carry Indiana next year, it
is time for State Chairman E. NJ. Lee
10 step down. He made a splendid
fight for Beverage and he had our
sympathy and support for reelection
as state chairman at the outset
Mr.. Lee has not during the past
few months however shown himself
a big enough man to combat the an
noyances that come in political
fight. He has talked too much and
soured a lot of people on himself.
Indiana republicans are for Taft.
They believe that he can both get the
Indiana delegation prior to the con-
vention and carry the state next fall
If Mr.. Lee is so faint of heart that he
can't see it that way. but must &C
over the country weeping and draw
ing the long bow it is time for him to
kiss us all goodbye.
Here's your hat Mr. Lee
