COMPLAIN OF SERVICE.

While we don't doubt for a minute
that the residents OF the Ridge road
district and those who live between
those highlands and Lottaville. are
quite grateful because they have
street car accommodations south of
the Little Calumet, yet they can't be
blamed for protesting against the
service they are getting, even If they
are perhaps little impatient.
From the clamors that come from
beyond the Little Calumet it appears
that the Gary e. Southern cars have
the vexing little tricks of never ar
irving in time to meet the departing
Gary & Interurban cars. On the other
hand the latter traction vehicles have
the habit of leaving before the car
from the south appears in sight. Ae-
cordingly those who travel down
South Broadway are dumped out at
Calumet bridge as are those who are
going north. On these wintry days it
is far from pleasant to stand in the
center of a wind swept marsh. Wo-
men and little children find the situa-
ton disagreeable
Since both lines have failed to adj
just their schedule in a common sense
way it is up to the board of public
works to strsighten out this little
traction tangle.
Both lines are suppose to receive and
accept transfers, but so far each is col
lecting its own nickel. When both
companies received their franchises 1t
was stipulated that there would be 8.
cent fares ard transfer exchanges
Sooner or later both will have to get
down to business and if the companies
can't agree on terms the board of pub
lie works ought to take steps to rem
edy matters.

ties. The most exclusive OF mixed
marriages were the English enumer-
ated, the Norwegians showing about
the same proportion as the Swedes.
Even the Jews, popularity supposed
to cling TO their own people in mar
riage. and to seldom mate outside
their race, showed the same tendency
as the others TO forget blood after the
third generation. !
But popular opinion was confirmed
in the showing that the greatest mum
Der of children are in the families OF
the foreign born, and that large fam.
lilies dwindle as blood is mixed
There was but one exception to this
and this was where the union was OF
the Welsh and Irish.

TRACTION STALKING.

1t was pickering and quibbling that
cost the business district of Ham
mond the main line of the South
Shore Interurban road Now Ham
mond looses the great advantage that
accrues to the territory along the line
of this road by reason of the superior
transportation facilities that are of
fered to the plant of the Baldwin Lo
connective works
The demand that is said to have
been made by certain citizens that
the board exact a provision for uni
versal transfers from the Green Line
lis silly 1t would make the entire
system of this line in Hammond a
feeder for the Gary & Interurban
line.
No traction line would consent to
such provision when the reciprocal
advantages are SO few. 1t would be
business suicide. The great majority
of the people Of Hammond demand
the passage of franchises that will
give both the Green line and the
Gavit line access to East Chicago.
Delay will be fatal What the peo-
pie demand now is extensions and not
the coercion of a street railway com
pany to do things that are manifest.
ly poor business policy.
The demand that the Hammond
Whiting & East Chicago line purchase
right-of-way along the Nickle Plate
tracks over what would be the ex
tension of Kane avenue and then dedi
cate it to the city as street is asking
a great deal when the company is al
ready compelled to spend thousands
of dollars for paving the space be
tween the street car tracks.
| 1t is more important that stee
highways be built through to the
Baldwin plant at once than it is fol
the board to bubble over forcing con
cession that are unimportant in con,
parison with the great task of secur
ing transportation to the great in
dustrial districts of East Chicago an,
Indiana Harbor.
1t is wrong for the board to deman,
that the Gavit line leave Kennedy ave
lnue open to other traction lines. On
of the assets of a franchise is the fac
that it is exclusive. 1t helps to sci
the bonds that bring hundreds o
thousands of foreign capital into tn
lregion for traction development
The members of the Hammon
board of public works are right i
seeking to make the best possibl
!, bargain for the city and no one ques
tions their motives, but while the
will find some people who demand un
versal transfers and the common us
of trackage by all interurban an
: street car line they will find thousand
who demand. for the sake of develo,
ment of their property interests, tia
lines be built through to Indiana Ha
Dor at once without delay and quibbl,
