MORE aPuRGINGn NEEDED.

The disgraceful proceeding in the
Gary city council, which characterized
the election of new councilman to
take the place of Alderman Antony
Baukus by which eight aldermen re-
peatedly cast ten ballots, indicates
that there are still number of coun-
cilmen who will have to be eliminated

of the people Of the city of Gary that

bars where they belong. such disgrace
full demonstrations as were made in
the last council meeting in Gary will
be impossible.
Every newspaper in the middle west
carried stories of the brazen attempt
to illegally elect an alderman by stuff
ing the ballot boxes. Manufacturers
who may consider locating in Gary
will certainly not care to take the
chance of having to deal with such a
condition and Gary suffers accordingly.
1t is not a question of throttling the
newspapers and then allowing this
municipal rottenness to eat its way
through the official circle of Gary. 1t
is a question of cutting out the can
cerous growth at once and newspaper
publicity shows the public in general
where corruption exists. Gary's pride
! and its splendid capacity for achieve
ment will eventually remedy this de
plorable condition.

OSBORN'S INTERFERENCE.

Governor Chase Osborn, of Michi-
gan, has urged President Taft to with
draw from the presidential race and
thereby stirred up a hornets nest in
a sister state AS the leader of the
republican party in Michigan, Osborn S
request is in mighty poor taste and it
is hard to fanthom just what grounds
the executive has for his action. Pres
ident Taft has the staunchest of sup
porters in Michigan men who believe
that, considering the remarkable I'M
rest prevailing in his administration,
the president has done remarkably
we'll.
BY the way, suppose some petty
county officer in Michigan should ask
Governor Osborn to get out of office
and herald the request abroad in the
public prints, just what would Osborn
think?

1t is a wise thing to make friend

the very evident fact that you are like

TAFT SLIGHT
FAVORITE

After weeks investig cation THE
Lake COUNTY TINES announces the re-
suit of a poll taken to ascertain the re-
publican presidential candidates of
Lake county. The investigation COW
cred the whole county from the lake to
the Kankakee and every effort was
made to get an honest republican ex-
preston. In a county with a popula-
ton such as that of Lake 1t would be
difficult to separate republicans and
democrats consequently ii is to be ex-
pected that democrats have contributed
a little something to the story that the
figures ell. In THE TIMES poll Taft re-
ceived ISL votes and Roosevelt 92S.
Beverages popularity is indicated by
vote of All. The votes cast for Taft,
Roosevelt and Beveridge reflect the
sentiment of the party in Lake as near
as THE TIMES could gather ii. We de-
duce from the figures that Taft is
slight favorite and that the repubii-
cans of Lake are unanimously in favor
of a good republican for the candidate.
