candidate. and Richard NJ. Elliott, the
Republican candidate. are both on the
stump. Gray challenged Elliott to a
Joint debate, the condition being that
all other speakers be kept out of the
district and these two men to fight it
out alone. But Elliott declined on the
ground that it was the desire of the
Republicans to bring in a number of
senators and congressman to speak in
the district, thus placing the campaign
on national grounds.
A number of Republicans are already

FEDERAL INSPECTOR
IS IN HAMMOND

Federal Inspector Bragdon is in Ham
mond today taking up the cases of those
men who's loyalty is under question.
From East Chicago there are only
two cases.
John Sopcic, a saloonkeeper at 3490
Guthrie street, has been arrested under
the accusation of his using reasonable
language. His friends, however. say
that the arrest is the result Of a frame
up against him. John denies the charge
and says that he has been in this coun-
try about thirty-two years, has his sec
ond papers, has a son in the United
States army.
The other case is hat of Mike lamp
co, who resisted the authority of sol
diers who were guarding the New York

Dor. and who. pon arrest. was found not
to be registered. He is reported to have
said that he did not have TO register.

INDUSTRIES
On GRILL

Ninteen industries of East Chicago
are before the county board of review
today in answer to subpoenas sent out
by that organization asking them to ape
pear and show cause why their as
sessed valuations should not be in
creased.
Not only the municipal city. but the
school city. of East Chicago are in hard
shape financially because of their hav-
ing reached the limit of their bonding
power.
The only relief lies in an increase OF
the taxable valuations. and inasmuch as
the industries are bearing the least pro-
portion of the burden, these are the
ones that have been subpoenaed before
the board.
The East Chicago Chamber of Com
merce is behind the movement. Mem
bers of that committee feel that an in
crease of five millions of dollars should
be obtained today.

DEEP SEWER
REVERSED

This is the abstract of the supreme
court decision yesterday reversing the
deep sewer verdict in the Lake circuit
court so vital to Hammond:
"23011. James E. Preyo ct al. VS..
City of Hammond ct al. Lake q. y.
Reversed. Larry, j.
cd This was a suit by appellants to
enjoin the appellees from constructing
sewers on each side of the Calumet riv-
er. and the erection of a pumping sta
ton and other matters for a scheme Of
~disposing of sewage for the city. and
the city treated the Who'll improve
ments as a single enterprise as one
drainage district. and also attacked it
upon the ground of fraud. The finding
of the trial court being for the appellee.
and there being some evidence to sup
port the finding upon the question of
fraud, it is beyond the jurisdiction of
this court to disturb the judgment of4
that ground. CD The power to make
public Improvements upon special as
sessnents is entirely statutory, and un-
less the authority attempting to use
such power reasonably follows the
method prescribed by law. it is of no
force, as the power granted makes the
method of exercising the power juris-
dictional. The court holds that the
showing here Is that there are at least
two main sewers. one south of the river
and one north of the river, and that
the law contemplates special assess
ments only as TO the building or sew
ers for the adjoining property and for
the main sewer into which such sewers
run. and that there is nc authority TO
create a drainage district. which en-
braces two separate and distinct sewer
systems. and taxing the whole Of the
property in the district for the expense.
go The court does not hold that there
is a lack of power to construct the work
contemplated by this proceeding. and to
assess the cost against the property
benefited. The holding is that the
proceedings do not conform to the re-
quirements of the state. Because there
is an attempt to exercise a power in a
manner essentially different from that
provided by the statute. the attempted
proceeding must fail. 1t is
suggested that there is no power grant
ed TO construct a pumping station and
sewage disposal plant at the cost of
the property benefited. but such i'm
provements must be paid for by a gem
eral tax. AS TO this. appellants are
clearly in error. Section $685.. Burns
1914 provides etc"
