SUCCESS.

In success, defeat is but an Incl
dent. Obstacles, stumbling blocks,
in ideals - these
things weave into and form the raj
ment to success. For success is a
series of failures put to fight.

Toledo Times.
A few years ago young man stood
behind a New England counter as a
clerk. Quiet, faithful. yet failure

GOOD GOVERNMENT WINS.

Mayor K. NJ. Wosczynslki of West
Hammond, Ignatius Mankowski, the
clerk of the city and the rest of the
forces are to be con-
graduated on the complete cleanup
they made of the old gang.
What cleaning up they neglected to
do at the last election was done at
this. Judge Frank Green, the per-
sistent champion of the notorious
saloon keepers. was overwhelmingly
defeated.
Henry c. Peters, known as the
|divekeepers candidate, got only 161
votes for the office of mayor to
Wosczynski' All and Michael
Modrzejewski. another gang candi-
date for mayor, with the support oil
Rev. b. Nowakowski, got only 13S
votes or one third as many as
Wosczynski,
If the solemn statements of Mayor
X. M. Wosczynski and Clerk Ignatius
Mankowski are to be credited there is
a sorry state of affairs.
They charge that Rev. B
Nowakowski openly worked for tbs
election of Michael Modrezejewski
1t is known that at the last election
he sought to bring about the election
Iof his relative Joseph Biiinski for cit,
lattorney.

In case the les saloonmen of Gary
are SO unfortunate to lose their Ii
censes Mayor Knots will have to do
some tall explaining. AS father of
the low license bill that has resulted
in jeopardizing the saloonmen he has

lose, doubtless hizzoner will be re-

he is 50 sure that he can't be con-
WINGED to the contrary, has been assert

thousand dollars to anyone who
would prove to him that he is wrong.
Not satisfied with the way his chal-
lenge was ignored he posted a number
of cards bearing his offer of reward

the mistake, however. OF mailing some

Special to Times Republican.
Ames, March 6.-Agitation Of tax
payers of Jackson county for an Off
cial investigation into the bridge and
road business as conducted by the
Jackson county board of supervisors,
may lead to disclosures Of graft SINH
lar to those aired in Clinton county
last year by state experts. The office
of the Iowa highway commission to-
day received a request from the citi-
zens' committee Of Jackson county
asking the highway commission to do
the investigating Of the board Of SUI
pervisors' and other county records
bearing upon road and bridge work
covering a considerable period. T. H
Macdonald. engineer of the highway
commission, today said the commission
would likely undertake examination of
the Jackson county affairs just as it
did in the case Of Clinton county.
Strangely in favor Of the board of
supervisors integrity, the board agreed
with the taxpayers committee to have
the bridge and road books checked out
by competent engineers.
