PRINTING DOES THE BUSINESS.

A modest printer in an exchange
says: THE stationery printed in this
office is giving the best of satisfac-
ton. Last week we printed 100 state,
ments for a man and by their aid he
collected small fortune. Two months
ago a man bought of us some note
paper and envelopes and now he is
married. Another young man stole
some of Our paper to make cigarettes
and now he is dead. A young lady
got some Of our paper to curl her
hair ON and now she has beau. We
have only a few packages of this kind
in stock. By using our stationery
every person can collect old accounts,
tell futures, make rain, change the
color of your hair, extract teeth with
out pain; if you are married keep tab
ON your husband, find out if he is
really detained from home on bust
ness; if you are unmarried, find out
the name of your future husband or
wife, be successful in business, be
elected to office. Give us a call"

Taxation is high. There are many real
estate propositions that need financial
backing that can not be obtained. I'm :
proyement bonds are discounted heavi
" and the discounts are charged
against the property holders when the
contractors make their bids.
Franchises Given Away.
Franchises for public utilities are
given away. The public contracts are
not let to the lowest and best bidders,
but to favorites who charge exobitant
prices for their work. The charge Is
made. too, that when business enter
prises are offered at Gary and Eas;
, Chicago certain people must be seen,
and that there is system of addition
division and silence entering into ali
big business enterprises. The result o.
it all is that the tax payers are getting
the worst of 1t.

comes from Terre Haute, where it is
said lively interest In the boorl of
Woodrow Wilson for the Democratic
nomination for President has become
apparent in the last few days. bunch
of yigo county Democrats were in this
city yesterday and they gave out the
word that Vigo count Democrats are
taking more kindly to the Wilson
boom
yigo count Is IN the hands of the
Taggart and Crawford Fairbanks ma
chine, and IL the Wilson sentiment is
beginning to show over there it is TAX
en- to mean that II has the sanction Of
that element. In fact. 1t is suspected
that Taggart himself win be found In
the ranks of the wilsonites before tie
ra ce is over. and that instead of con-
tinuing to work for the nomination OF
Governor Marshall he may come ont in
favor of Wilson for president and Mar
shall fir vice president4 This suspicion
has grown since Taggart returned from
the east a few days go and began
talking among some of his friends
There has never been a time when the
Democrats of Indiana could be induced
to believe that Taggart was really IN
earnest in behalf of the Marshall can
didacy, and they have always thought
that when the right time he would slir
away from the Governor and go &c
some other candidate. SO if he wers
to come out for Wilson it would not
cause any surprise. 1t has been the
belief that he really favored Governor
Harmon for the nomination, but it i
pointed out now that Harmon has st
little chance of landing the nomination
that Taggart will be hunting another
| bandwagon on which he can climb ane
go ahead with the trip.
In this connection il is interestins

blau gave such testimony that Gibson
was convicted. A few days ago
Himelblau made an affidavit in Chicago
that he faxed the evidence at the rec
quest OF Dean. and on Saturday he
gave his deposition along the line of
his affidavit. 1t is the intention TO usa
the deposition in the defense Of
Thomas e. Knots, mayor of Gary, who
is also under indictment
Perjury in One Case or the ether.
1t is a self-evdent fact that Himei :
blau either perjured himself in giving
his testimony against Gibson or in
making the affidavit against Gibson or
in making the AFFIDAVIT and the law
abiding citizens of Lake county are
determined that he shall not escape

ALUMNI BANQUET At SURREY
First Banquet Given by the Alumni
Association of Surrey High.

Who says that Surrey is dead
town You should have Eeen here
during the last two weeks. All Of
your fears for Surrey would have van:
ished and you would have had to ad.
nit that Surrey is one of the most
enterprising towns, for it's size, in
the northwest Our high school ranks
first among the high schools of the
state in industry. This year we sent
a class of five out of our school into
tho school Of life.
The big doimgs commenced with
the exercises given by the teachers
of the lower grades in our public
shoots, and ended after one week
with the alumni banquet, given by the
Alumni association to the friends,
teachers and scholars of Surrey high
school
The banquet in itself was success
to say nothing of the many excellent
toasts offered and responded to. The
Surrey orchestra was hired for -he
occasion and it's excellent music was
received with hearty appreciation by
the banmeters. The sagacsous,
witty, and humorous Prof. Paul
shorE was POSTMASTER of the evening
and he proved beyond the shadow of
doubt that he was equal to the
occasion. His introduction Of the
speakers was such as to inspire
| with witty, if not sensible thoughts
| The first speaker Of the evening was
Mr.. Levi Perry and his theme was
''the seniors" He knew their history
from A to z, and when he was thru
with them they felt like sinking thru
i the floor Tine response to the vast
was given by Mr.. Lloyd Fox and af-
ter his embarrassment, due to his lit
tie Burns, was overcome, he made
an excellent speech.
A toast was then given to the fac
ulty by Miss Mabel Burns. Her main
theme seemed to be dark RAYS. MISC
Laurence responded to this and she
proved that light as we'll as dark
rays have a great influence upon our
lives.
Miss Hattie Perry then gave a
| G
such as to inspire them with high
ideals. Mr.. Ralph Perry responded
and he showed that the ideals Of the
undergraduates were high. He told
