"TAGGARTIsM MUST CO."

If Tom Taggart's ears didn't burn
Saturday night it was not because
Mayor Becker, of Hammond, didn't
give them the reason when he spoke
at the meeting of independent DEM
ocrats in this city. Mr.. Becker has
been a lobbyist at the legislature for
q number OF years and is pretty well
acquainted with the ms and outs of
legislating in Indiana. Moreover, he
is a man of courage. The things he
said Saturday night are evidence of
that. Mr.. Becker did not mince words
as witness:
IF the people of Indiana actual
~ knew what did take place in the
last session of the legislature
they would rise tomorrow and de-
mand the initiative and referen-
dunn. This is 81 great movement
which we have stated In South
Bend tonight for 1t means the
blotting out of the little gang of
brewers. which is now picking our
candidates for state offices and for
cities as we'll. This machine is to-
day telling the people what beer
they must drink. Tomorrow 1t
will be telling us what kind of
school books we must buy"
But that was only by way of be-
ginning. Mayor Becker warmed UP
to his subject as he went along and
the amoune OF enthusiasm he stirred
UP is evidence that his words fell on
fallow ground. To all appearances
something will be doing In Indiana
before long. A movement has beer
started under more propitious cir
cumstances than ever before, and /
is aimed directly and avowedly a
the Taggart ring.

to the northwest corner of the state

piece of fat salt pork. Let the meat

added, as they will need but an hours

serve with the, greens, take a pint OF
sifted corn meal, add soda, salt and boil

this is cool enough to handle, dip the

into small dumplings; drop one by one
into the boiling greens and cook them
for half an hour. Dip out with skim

Man Comes Forward With Convincing
Argument That One Clerk Was
a Maniac.

There are some who argue that
many people who write books are
crazy. W. W. Richardson Of Wash
ington now comes forward with the
argument that at least one man who
sells books is a maniac. Richardson
went to a book store last Christmas
and said to the young clerk:
81 want copy Of Poor Richards
Almanac done in brown leather"
"Almanacs?" echoed the clerk
"Yes. sir. Down in the paper-goods
department with Christmas cards and
calendars"
Perhaps you can give me copy
of The Master of the Inn.' by Robert
Herrick," Richardson made another
suggestion.
Never heard OF that" confessed
the clerk, "but I can give you some
thing lust as good. We've got The
Master OF Ballantrae.''
