THE WATER QUESTION.

All day yesterday the city of Ham
mond was n,enaced by fire. This was
due to the fact that the intake was
clogged with needle ice. Millions OF
dollars worth OF property was leopard
lied. The stage was set for the most
terrible catastrophe that the Calumet
region has ever known.
1t has been years since Hammond
has had bad fire. The people have
settled down to a sense of false Sc
curity. They do not realize that it
will take only a combination of very
ordinary circumstances to wipe out the
fortunes of scores of people.
| Low pressure, a high wind and a
down town fire would devastate acres
of property, would cause untold suf-
fering and possibly the loss of life
1t is a terrible responsibility that the
city officials of Hammond shoulder
every winter.
This situation offers the one criti-
cism of a municipality owned water
works. A private company would be
able to secure the million or more
dollars of private capital that would be
necessary to build q ten foot water tun-
mel to a four mile crib, the step that
is necessary to solve this problem
The city of Gary has a privately
owned water company. 1t is furnish
ed with an adequate supply of pure
water and is never put at the mercy
of fire as result of needle ice.
The champions of municipality own
ed water works point out that Gary's
water rate is higher than Hammond's
They omit to point out that Hammond
gets only what it pays for.
Gary has service It has to pay fol
1T. Gary has pure water, suitable fol
: drinking purposes and its citizens dc
not have to pay out S25, 900 year fol
drinking water. Gary's industries are
always provided with an adequate sup
lply of water, while the F. s. Betz com
pany at Hammond was compelled t,
shut down because of a lack of wa
ter. The loss to this concern mus

WILSON AN MIGRATE.

Politicians of both parties are amaz-
ed at the revelations ELECTED In the re-
buke given Woodrow Wilson, presi-
Dental candidate on the democratic
ticket, by ,clonel Watterson because
of Wilson's treatment of Colonel
Harvey. editor of Harpers Weekly.
1t is admitted that a nail has been
driven in Wilson's political coffin by
Watterson and Harvey and his presi-
Dental stock can't be bulled into the
market now at any price. Wilson's
action Is, indeed. surprising II we
remember rightly, Harper's Weekly
trotted Mr.. Wilson into the limelighi
months ago and by its advocating the
Wilson candidacy put it on the politi
cal map. In other words. Harvey
made Wilson what he is today. In re
turn for this Wilson shows not the
slightest sense of political obligation
And it looks very much as though hs
were an migrate. The American PEG
pie never cared very much for an in
crate and henceforth we may look for
ward to recrudesence of some of tn
other democratic boomlets which has
been out-dinned by Wilson's.

The people of Hammond might as
we'll face the facts The diagnosis OF
the trouble is easy. the cure is more
difficult, but it is at hand. One OF
three solutions present themselves.
! 1. The sale of the Hammond wa
| ter works to a private company whose
franchise would require the construc
ton, at once, of ten foot water tun
mel to four mile crib.
2. The securing of an enabling ac'
from the state Legislature that would
permit the fixing of a special levy
large enough to pay off bond issue
of 100000 in ten years.
g. A more complicated solution b,
which the city of East Chicago woult
acquire its waterworks and the thre.
cities of East Chicago. Whiting ant
Hammond could unite in the construc
ton of new water works system tina
would cost not less than 81 100000.

enormous tidal wave 1t fioated a bon
