manages to enter a convention with a
powerful voting machine behind him
The Knots Machine Ineffective.
The solidity of this delegate strength
would tend to indicate that the strength
IS In proportion throughout the party
in the city, whereas 1t is just the oppo-
site. Outwardly possessed of a sol!di-
fed following among the democrats,
Knots is just the reverse when the
true facts are known. This was mani
tested two years ago when the demo-
cratic county and state officers lost ev-
erything In Gary. Knots with his city
employees control solid delegate unit,
but when it comes to voting the blufr of
his machine is exposed as 1t was In the
1910 election.
One democratic onlooker at the con-
vention said yesterday that were the
Gary delegates the representative of the
party In Gary that it would have cast
more split votes than any other deiega
ton In the county. While the Knots

MACHINES GALORE
VISIT REGION

More autos passed through East Chi
cago and Calumet yesterday than has
ever traversed the highways of this
section in one day. since autos were
first built.
There were hundreds of them whiz-
zing down Forsyth and Chicago and
Kennedy avenues in steady process
sion all day, causing those thorough
fares to more resemble Michigan ave-
nue. or grand boulevard In the big me-
tropolis than anything the Twin Cities
has Zen accustomed to.
The machines for the most part were
from Indiana and Illinois, many of them
being from Chicago on the way to the
country and vice versa, the route above
described being now the preferred one
between Chicago and the east and the
southern part of Lake county, instead
of via Hammond.

RUNAWAY
CREATES
SOME STIR

When William Wright of the East
Chicago company came along on his
way to business this morning, he found
a policeman camping on the step lead
ing to the entrance of the office. The
policeman informed Mr.. Wright that he
wouldn't have much trouble opening
up. a team of horses belonging to
Wolper Bros. had kindly come along
and done the work.
Mr.. Wright allowed his astonished
gaze to dwell for a moment upon the
spot where was wont al that hour OF
the morning to glisten a well kept
Plate glass door, securely locked against

door there was an empty space. ON
the floor just inside was the wreck of
what had once been door. but which
was now splintered wood and bits of
broken glass.
IL was explained to Mr.. Wright that
there had been runaway and that this
was the result. There are the facts in
the case although the East Chicago
representative has concocted a crafty
story 10 the effect that the door was
torn from its hinges by a crush of Gus
toners seeking to buy lots.
An incident of the runaway was the
injury of J. Wolper who was driving
tle horses Wnpn tNPE became u0Ildfl-
ageable. Mr.. Wolper jumped and
broke one OF his arms, and was picked
up half unconscious and taken to the
home of DR.. Frederick Sauer where the
fractured bone was set.
The team which did the damage was
one only recently purchased by Wolper
Bros. They had been recommended as
sound. gentle and city-broke. They
seemed to have borne out this reputa-
ton, al the Twentieth Century limited
and the Pennsylvania Flyer had no
terrors for them. Ii took a Hungarian

the list and with his convention of city
employees, police and saloonkeepers,
carried 1t through. AS result of these
tactics the majority of the democrats
never attend the precinct conventions
any more as they have no voice in the
affairs. The hundreds of young men
in Gary who are democrats shunt their
party caucuses entirely. So. by dicta-
torial means Knots selects only dele
gates that will do his bidding. Gary

ty who never split their vote like as

Seton of Gary
Will Be Democratic
Prosecutor Candidate

The action of the Lake county
democratic convention Saturday in
permitting Attorney C. o. Seton OF
Gary to name his own candidates
to the Lake-Porter joint judicial
convention means that he will be
the democratic candidate for prose-
cutor of the Thirty-first judicial dis
trict. The Lake county delegation,
which Mr.. Safton will control, will
be in the majority
Mr.. Seton is member of the

diauapolis and Valparaiso law
schools and has always been an ac-

he was president of the Gary demo-
cratic party and until the effecting

was the titular head of the party
in Gary.

Becker and Curtis retired to one end
of the hall and as the convention end
neared the Hammond judge presented
the resolutions which were adopted. Be
sides the usual endorsements and riga
marole one clause demanded that the
legislature give people the right to
have a referendum vote on municipal
franchises. Whether this was meant
as a direct slap at Mayor Knots fran
chise giving activities was not stated.
Republican Makes Motions.
Mayor Knots name for convention
chairman was placed before the house
by John Dorman of Ross township. city
health inspector of Gary. 1t was sec
onded by Rev.-Col. A. C. Mayo, who is
prominent enough in the republican
party in Gary to still sport the honor
of having bee none of the vice prest-
dents at a meeting when former Sena-
tor Beveridge came to the city to ad-
, dress the republican organization.
Those who had seen Rev.-Col. Mayo as
a prominent figure at recent republican
ward and precinct conventions were
amazed to see him demand a secret bal
lot for Knots and to make other mo-
TONS including the one to have John
Hamilton as permanent secretary. At
