After a short Introductory talk the
chair called upon various workers of
the party, all Of whom expressed great
confidence in the organization in the
coming campaign and all Of whom seem
ed to feel that party lines would be
pretty thoroughly circumscribed in the
coming campaign and that the best Of
feeling and harmony prevailed through
out the city.
Joe Meade was the first speaker and
expressed the hope that there would
not be a multiplicity of candidates for
the various Offices in the coming pri-
mary inamuch as many a disaffection
had been known to arise from the heat
Of arguments in pre-primary campaigns.
He called to attention to our rapid
growth and the coming Importance that
was bound to accrue to the city in all
county and district matters.
Tom Roberts. as county secret ary.
spoke OF the fact that apparently East
Chicago was the only dependable repub
llcan city in the county. the only one
that could be absolutely depended upon
to roll up a good majority for the tick
ct, local county or national.
Abe Ottenheimer spoke Of the court
situation and of the necessity of thor
oughly organizing all the forces Of the
party He decried that phase of the law
that compelled the parties TO declare
their candidates. six months in advance
of election. while individuals or repre-
sentatiyes Of so-called non-partisan
tickets could declare their candidates
any time before fifteen days prior to
the election.
W. O. Harmon. regularly entitled TO
reelection as treasurer because of his
acceptable record. said that he serious
~ questioned whether or not he would
b a candidate for nomination if he had
to undergo a six months campaign: that
anyway he was more interested in Sc
curing for the city an equitable tax
valuation than he was in securing any
office.
DR.. A. 6. Schlieker spoke of the sac
rifces that man had to make if he
sought and accepted the nomination and
election to the mayoralty; that it was
a thankless and costly job 70 be mayor
