The race for councilmanic nomina-
lions in Hammond has apparently only
begun judging by the way candidates
are coming into the open. With the
announcement of Edward Burns yes
terday and that of John Pascaly to-
day, the third ward is promised con-
test, a distinction which no other
ward can claim so far 1t will be a
case of a new man in the game being
pitted against a veteran in ward poll
tics. for Pascaly has been successful
three campaigns. What his opponent,
Mr.. Burns, lacks in experience is made
up for by his friends enthusiasm. Mr..
Burns has been a resident of Hammond
for more than nve years He demon
strated his faith in the city by erect
ing a substantial building on State
street which he occupies with his I'M
dertaking establishment.

a peculiar but beautiful sight was
presented to them. Two of the North

a trees in front of Mr.. Toner'S resi-
dence, and the tree had all the appear
ance of a Christmas tree brilliantly
illuminated with electric bulbs Every
leaf on the tree seemed to have a light
suspended from il and the effect while
terrifying was at teh same tim beau
tiful. Chief James Doherty at once
realized that an electrician was more
needed in the emergency than a fire
department and sent for Chas. Rewald
of the electric company. He arrived
soon after and with a pair of pliers
had the electric pyrotechnics on the
blink in a few moments.

TIMES BUREAU
AT STATE CAPITAL

Indianapolis Ind, July 11.-Thomas
Taggart got back to this city from the
east yesterday just in time to join the
Democratic Editorial Association today
on its excursion to Corydon, New AL
bany. Louisville, French Lick and a
few other Indiana seaports. T. asso-
citation is holding its annual meeting
practically on wheels this year, because
it will visit all of these places. OF
course. the principal attraction will be
the time spent at French Lick a S guests
of Mr.. Taggart. There is no man on
earth who can show a bunch of good
fellows a better time than Taggart can,
and he never fails to do his best with
the Democratic editors. This is ac-
counted for in various ways. One is
that he likes to be pleasant and con-
genial with. the fellows, and another
reason is that it will not do him any
harm politically to have the editors on
good terms with him.
Taggart called on Governor Ralston
yesterday, at the state house, and spent
much time with him. What they talked
about no one knows. but most nybody
could guess.
Mr. Taggart has entered an emphatic
denial to the report that his presence
of the election of chairman of the
Democratic congressional campaign
committee had something to do with
| the defeat of Congressman Cyrus Cline
| for that position. When the report was
sent out from Washington and publish
| ed Mr.. Taggart wrote Cline a letter
calling attention to the report and ask.
ing him whether in his opinion the fac
| that he arrived In Washington that day
| had anything to do with his defeat
Cline has written Taggart a letter
| stating that he had nothing to do will

| Taggart then wrote a letter to thu
indianapolis paper which published TIL
story, and that paper printed the cor
lrespondence yesterday. together with
statement from its Washington cores
pendent in which the latter says tina
common rumor was that Taggart's pre-
ence in the city on that date was takel
by many of the congressman to meal
that he was seeking help to put Gin
over a winner. This, he said, gave ris
to the talk that the administration for
