thing certain is that Mexico must

restoration of the ordinary security

1t may not be true that Ambassa-

clear that foreign interference must

The time is come when concerns
which seek to have street vacated
should pay dearly for them. 1t cost
the citizens of Hammond and West
Hammond $4,000 to open State Line
street; it cost 100000 to widen Calu-

Dickey place and One Hundred and

Harbor canal.
If it costs the people of this COM

were exacting enough from the clos

CLOSE TO THE PEOPLE.

From President-elect Wilson s
speech before the Southern Society ii
is evidently his intention to keep
close to the people and appeal to
them when in doubt or difficulty. He
said in this connection
The task before me as far as it
relates to appointments TO office is
wholly hateful. But the task be-
fore me as far it relate to the
working out of the problems be-
fore the country is wholly delight
full. This is because / know that
you have only to appeal to the peo-
pie of the United States on the
right grounds to put those who
would resist out of business. That
is. SO long as you mean what you
say and as long as there is no hest
tation about your attack.
This is good resolve. The people
are never wrong.

ing some Of them resemble great moths
or sober hued butterflies. The bat
wing may be worn with any sort of
shirt, soft, semi-stifr or starched, and
with any style Of collar.
The old-fashioned term "cravat" Is
again found in the vocabulary Of the
trade. Many of these prepared for the
fall-winter season show rare combina-
lions Of coloring Some Of these are
knitted Of bright, natural silk, in
popular stitches and novelty effects,
made Of Bensalines, crepes, Faillies
and foulards.
There Is no evidence Of the antici-
pated decline in the demand for knit
and crochetted goods. Among the
higher class trade is q disposition to
advance the cut-silk variety. For the
first time in several years it is hardly
possible to name any two or three col
ors or color combinations that will pre-
vail above others for the autumn sea-
son. The range Of buyers selections
up to date cover the entire chromatic
scale, while brilliant effects are promi-
nent. In knit goods, bars and cross
stripes are mostly in evidence; while
cut-sflk designs are for the most part
restrained to short-bias stripes and
small figures.
The ACCORDION weave four-in-hand is
too great a favorite to be abandoned,
and will remain throughout the win
ter. So will the long flowing scarfs
in Persian designs and scrolls. The
color combinations in all these are so
numerous as to defy description. Bias
stripes in three color combinations will
be specially popular among the younger
set; while a novelty that may or may
not meet with general approval is an
accordeon-weave with what is known
as the "lace effect" This is handsome,
and, in spite Of it's title, is not effemi-
nate in appearance.
Combination sets. Of four-in-hand,

NECKWEAR.
Ascots and bat-wing ties have been
restored to favor, and the. former will
be worn very largely in place Of the
four-in-hand in conjunction with the
cutaway coat. 1t is also perfectly
permissible with ordinary business
sack, and is best worn with wing
collar. fastened with a plain gold
safety pin.
Absolutely no limit exists as to the
range of fancy permitted a man in
the selection Of his neckwear for the
fall and winter season of 1912-1913.
Crochets are destined to meet with
special favor this autumn, in all sorts
of striped effects and popular stitches.
The bat-wing tie will soon be on sale
everywhere, having met the approval
of "the powers that be- for the COM
ing season. The man who prefers to
display a stud in the bosom of his

welcome the return of the bow.
