Broadway and Eighth avenue where

A DISGRACE.

1t is said that there will be con-
testing delegations come to the re-
publican national convention from
practically all of the southern states.
and the row which they will precipf-
tate promises to be acrimonious and
dangerous. And the curse of the
whole thing is that these trouble
makers come from states that never
produce any republican vote in the
electoral college-states where the
name republican is a reproach, and
Justly so. These men who will come
to Chicago. reviling each other and
demanding recognition, are the
brigands, the cut-throats and the
porch climbers of politics. Devoid of
principle they go where the market
is best and they brazenly yend their
wares in the convention hall. In
finitely better off would the republi-
can party be if it actually barred
from it's deliberations republicans
from the southern states. To be
sure, there are thousands of high
toned republicans living in the south,
but they are not the men who are ac-
tive in republican politics there.
They cannot participate in the dis
graceful brawls incident to the party
Organization and retain either their
self-respect or their social standing.
/ So they simply stand aside and al
low the high-binders to run things t,

came one of the largest congregations
in Hammond.
While Sharp was carrying on his
campaign for funds he did not con-
fine his attention to Hammond. He
went down state and actually induc-
ed non-residents to contribute liber-
ally towards the Hammond building
project. In fact every Christian
church in the state became aware of
the fact that the city of Hammond
had third rail- in its result get
ting pastor.
Rev. Sharp wanted to give the
frieds of the church over the state a
chance to see what had been accom-
plished in Hammond. The state con-
vention of Christian churches was
accordingly scheduled to be held in
that city.
To make this convention a success
Rev. Sharp has proceeded in his usual
energetic manner. Thousands OF
posters have been sent out all over
the state and it is expected that fully
1000 visitors will come into the city
to attend the convention. Among
these delegates will be many of the
wealthiest and most influential resi-
dents of the state of Indiana.
Rev. Sharp asks the people CT
Hammond to entertain them during
their stay here. He wants Hammond
to get reputation for hospitality
that will advertise it favorably over
the whole state. He is public spirit
ed enough to want to take this op-
portunity to give at least one person
in every city and town in the stats
a favorable impression Of the world
famous Calumet region.
So the automobile owners in the
region are to be called upon to
furnish enough cars to take the en-
tire visiting delegation for an auto
mobile ride through the cities al
northern Lake county. At least 20o
automobiles are needed. Rev. SHARP
wants to put on the most gigantic
stupendous and most remarkable
automobile parade the region has
ever seen. And you can bank on il
that he will do SO. Even the pikel
likes a winner and when Sharp says
he is going to do thing he usually
does it.
Sharp is appealing to Hammond
hospitality, to its spirit of local pride
He wants Hammond to make a goot
impression on the state at large ant
the fullest cooperation of it's citizen.

Hammond owes this to its "thirt
