The international people purchased
the original 33 acres from the East

The deal was closed in New York by

A COUNCIL
MEETING

The East Chicago city council met
last night and spent the greater part
of the session in making appropria-
tions and passing appropriation ordi-
nances to second reading.
The first matter up for consideration
was the ordinance appropriating 5000
to defray the expenses of committee
of three to represent the city council
at the Rivers and Harbors congress In
session in Washington this week and
to meet with the Rivers and Earbors
committee of Congress which convenes
on Thursday. This was passed.
The street lighting contract which
has been a bone of contention in the
pense" to the taxpayers, also was
adopted. The mayor said that the last
petition presented opposing the meas
ure and which contained 40 and odd
names, had been investigated and it
had been found that sixty-three of the
signers were taxpayers and the ball
ance were not. That the extra expense
to these sixty three taxpayers on &C
count of the new lighting contract, was
s2.5o or a little less than an average
of four cents a year apiece.
Ketcik made a speech deploring the
fact that while the down town district
had more lights than were needed. the
people of his bailiwick were left in al

mayor replied that If he would bring
in a petition asking for more lights.

FRESH AIR FOR BABY.

An abundance of fresh air is as nec- essary for the health of a baby as plenty of sleep and nourishing food. With the exception of a few stormy days, the baby should be taken out of doors every day. Besides this, it must have plenty of fresh air in the living and sleeping rooms. There is no dag ger of having too much fresh air. In too many homes cold weather and nee essary fires mean stuffy rooms. How common it is to see the entire family huddled around the stove in the even ing-all breathing and rebreathing the foul air. The old expression trying to heat the whole outdoors has been so impressed upon their minds that, by trying to keep all the heat in, they keep all the fresh air out. Some houses never are ventilated during the winter months The only fresh air that gains an entrance is the small quantity that rushes in whenever a door is opened to allow some person to pass in or out.
 The effect. of this lack of ventilation is seen in the pale, drawn faces of the family. Mothers face becomes wrink- led and drawn, not with age, but with oxygen starvation

GAINING EVERY WEEK.

Having shifted from Massachusetts the primary contest is today under way in Maryland. where the president and ex-president appeared in advo- cacy of their positions. The contest is getting to a point where Taft needs but few more votes to put Roosevelt entirely out of the running. Mary land. it is figured will give Is dele gates 10 the president. or a comforta- ble boost at the present time.
 The Roosevelt agitation to get the southern vote was a slap at the man hood of those chosen and found to be in such poor taste that the trick was abandoned. In order to strengthen the fight the rumor is revived that the New York delegation will go for Roosevelt. Chairman Barnes has dis srodatod and continues to deny such to be a fact. The state is opposed to Roosevelt. and the delegates have de- clared they are for Taft, barring the few who were known to be Roosevelt men when elected.
 The past week was a Taft week again, he getting A of the A dele gates chosen This week Nevada, Arkansas and Kansas will hold state conventions in which Taft delegates will be elected by the first two. There will also be a number of district con ventions and by the end of the week 1t is safe to assume that President Taft will be easily inside the necessary 100 delegates.

THE MONROE DOCTRINE.

It was anticipated that the answer 10 the senate's inquiry concerning Magdalena bay would be as it was that there was nothing to cause the belief that Japan intends to acquire Magdalena bay. It is conclusively set forth that the Japanese are not gain ing a fOothold there. l. is, however, the duty of this country to see that she does not in the future.
 No one can deny the value of such a position to Japan if she could secure it and likewise the detriment to this country For that reason, the com mittee on foreign relations needs the united support of all when they pre- sent a resolution for the broadening of the Monroe doctrine. It is held that 1t should be made to cover such a situation as that which developed at Magdalena bay, and, in fact, the ac- uuiring by a private company of land for a colony at strategical points may well be brought under it's wing
 It is a fitting time to attempt and carry through such legislation with the Japanese situation fresh in mind. It affords the reason and anticipates any other similar action from abroad, inasmuch as extensive surveys were made and large holdings seemed about ready to he turned over. It is well to keep the Monroe doctrine well in mind and to the front. Though Magdalena bay is not in danger, there is no time like the present to act if it can be found that the doctrine can be so brOadened

THE COAL STRIKE.

After such excellent progress had been made towards the settlement of the coal strike and reductions had been made in not a few places it was disheartening news to the ultimate consumer whens the agreement failed Of consummation. Of course. all the good that has been done has not been overthrown. but it has been given setback which may require another month of idleness. It is believed. how ever, that with an increase of ten per cent. in wages, to which the operators are favorable, and the committees so nesr together on the whole matter. thRr 1t cannot but have a wholesome effect on the outcome Much time has neen given to the careful consideratio of the trouble by the sub committees and their tentative agreement which went to the committee of twenty for ratification and was rejected will have another delay and conference
 For a month. now. the hard coal miners have been idle The calling of convention means a delay until tine middle of this month for approval or disapproval of the agreement which the big committee rejected. The pro- tracted settlement will serve to block the usual spring reduction in coal, so that again the public as well as thS wage earner loses
