THE PHANTOM OF GARY.

We have read with interest Mayor
Knots declaration to seek another
term at the head of the Gary govern
ment. One would think that by this
time the mayor had acquired some
wisdom IL not a lot of bitter expert
ences
A new town, Gary, has been the
haven of every foot loose patriot it
could attract. 1t has been at the
mercy of a thieving gang of public
contractors and the subject of a LOT
of notoriety brought on by some OF
its wayward officials and the doings
of this contracting gang.
In seeking third term Mayor
Knots goes after no enviahle post.
The place pays but a pittance and to
be an office holder in Gary is to be
| subject of comment when an official
carries himself to other parts Tc
hold on to an empty shell Knots has
spent couple of fortunes paying
lawyer fees. Is the job worth it?
| 1t is a singular fact that polite:
in Gary has shattered regulations
wasted fortunes, caused some to b,
fugitives from justice ,one man to di,
of broken heart, another to be sen
behind the bars while to others it ha
attracted unenviable notoriety whel
j they became involved in bribery an,
election scandals.
Mayor Knots came to Gary lik
many others with the aim of gaininl
wealth and political honors He ha
gained and lost both. And now, ono
again, he seeks nothing more thal

PUBLIC UTILITY COMMISSIONS.

Indiana is tagging behind in a
great many things. Among them is
advanced legislation creating a pub
lie utility commission A public
utility commission is a referee which
steps between the public and its pub
lie utilities and forces them both to
be reasonable.
For instance here in the Calumet
region a public utility commission
would insist that street cars be kept
clean. that certain double tracking
work be done, that the telephone
company abolish tolls in north town
ship and it might require non-com-
peting traction lines to exchange
transfers.
On the other hand no body of crook
ed or bullheaded aldermen could hold
up public service company's pro-
, gress so long as it was In the inter-
ests of the people. The commission
would protect the company from the
people as we'll as protect the people
lIOiu tue
If the question of a reduction In
rates was to be taken up the COM
mission would make an investigation
as to the cost of production In this
particular community. With all OF
the facts at hand. after scientific
investigation, 1t would determine
what Is a reasonable profit to the
company and a reasonable rate to the
consumer:
1t would prevent the water OF
stocks because it can regulate the is.
suing of stocks and bonds and Other
evidences of indebtedness against the
company.
j But such stocks and bonds as have
been issued up to the time the utili
ties commission took hold would bt
protected. The idea OF the commits
, sion would not be to destroy but t.
protect the interests of both the pub
! lie and the consumer.
, In a community like this publi
service company goes before cit,
council and makes certain REASONABLY
requests. The grafters deny them
