which, with triumph and pleasure In
her face, she said she had found un-

A LETTER FROM mir MILROY.

n LEIIE1t FROM NIX mlLRO1.
Editor TINES.
Kindly permit me through the cot
umns or your valuable paper to ex-
plain 10 the republican voters OF Lake
county. who generously supported me
at the primary election, held May 4,
1920. why my name will not appear up
on the ballot to be voted upon on
MoYcmbcr 2 as State Senator.
The original count OF the ballots
cast at the primary election May 4th,
gave Mr.. Holmes of Gary twenty more
votes than was credited TO me. On the
following day, I received information
that in several precincts of this county
gross errors and wilful fraud was com
mitted by both judges and inspectors
by which a number OF ballots were MT
crtdited to me that / was justly en.ill-
ed TO. Investigating some OF the
charges found this to be true and
after consulting my attorneys and
r~lacins these facts before them. they
Recommended a demanl for a rec' unt
OF the ballots cast at the primary cleo
ton. Action was taken and the case
brought up before Judge Norton of the
Lake County Circuit court at Grown
Point: after hearing the plea the couri
granted a recount although the. at.
torneys for Mr.. Holmes fought against
such action. no doubt. fearing expose
such action would uncover.
Judge Norton, in granting the re
count appointed a canvassing commit
tee. consisting Of the Honorable JOIN

and that the count Of the ballots as
originally made must stand as correct
on the records of the election board;
and Judge C~rumpacker in the absence
Of any law 10 protect me. so ruled.
For the reasons above explained. my
name Will not appear on the election
ballots November ., but the name or
Mr.. Holmes OF Gary VIII be coupled
with Senator Nejdl. Although this is a
great injustice to me-. I urge that ali
my republican supporters at the pri-
mary election give all their strength
70 the full republican ticket on Nov.
I'd AS far as Mr.. Holmes is concern
ed, he no doubt. will be carried along
with the success Of the republican
ticket and the rights of his seat in that

They Will without doubt take such &C
ton that Will uphold the dig pur-
pose, intent and honesty of primary or
general elections; and the protection OF
the rights OF the voters to send to that
body the candidate that their votes
have chosen.

that through a technically Of law their

Democratic Candidate For Congress

Lake County is the leading county IN the Tenth Congressional
District. 1t IS first in population. industrial development and natural
resources. Owing to this position it occupies, its Congressman should
be one who lives IN the locality and fully understands its needs. Lake
County can elect the Congressman II it wishes to do so.
The past Democratic administration which has helped foster our
local prosperous condition can be entrusted to insure our future deve-
opment. The Democratic party has been fair alike to labor and capt.
tai, and has demonstrated its capacity to dea. fairly with all.
IF elected pledge you my sincere support of all measures affect
ing our welfare.
solicit the support of all good citizens.
Respectfully yours.

RAIN BALKS GAME WITH INDIANS;
NATIONALS NOT OUT OF RUNNING
By GEORGE L. MoRELAND.

Poor Washington, way down in
the second division" That was an
expression heard at the ball grounds
yesterday after Umpire Tommy
Connolly. clothed in his chest pro-
tector and mask, announced that
there would be no game on account
OF the weather.
The fans remark is one any per-
son Is likely to hear. The team is
in the second division. That Is
true But the Chicago team is in
third place and only three games
ahead of the Nationals, with New
York in fourth position and one
and-a-half games ahead of US. That
shows how far the Washington
team Is out of the first quartet of
clubs.
There have been exactly 12o
Cleveland has captured 81 of their
starts out of 80 games, while the
Washingtons, who are fifth, have
won Il out Of so. just seven games
behind.
Cleveland has had good pitching.
Bagby and Coveleskie have cap
tured 16 games. Any fan will sav
that they are great. but would any
fan trade either for Walter John
son? Still. Walter has been able Il
win but three of his starts and
lost five.
Both johnson and Shaw. If they
were doing the work they are capa-
Bile Of. would have the team up
near Cleveland. Eight defeats
charged to a pair of pitchers who
are as good as any in the league is
some handicap and that is exactly
what Is the trouble today with the
Grfffs. The team Is batting second
in the league, and has scored as
many runs as any other club. Any
team that can average three and
a half runs per game will lose q
very few games with the pitchers
doing their share. Still we grumble
Another feature overlooked is the
fact that. with the exception OF
Chicago. the Nationals are the only
club that has not been shut out
this season. The boys can always
get a run at least to prevent the
club from being goose-egged.
Here is the record Of the shutout
games to date in the American

PROPOSE INCREASE
IN PRICE OF GAS

Alexandria, Va, May 25.-A res
olution to increase the price of city
gas to $1.70 q 1000 cubic feet with
a discount of 10 cents on each 1000
feet was presented to the city coun-
ell tonight and referred to the
finance and light committee. The
prevailing rate is $1.40 per 1000
feet with 20 cents of for prompt
payment, making a total net of
$1.2o. The increase, therefore,
would be 30 cents. Councilman
Walker, of the light committee,
promised better gas in the next few
days
The Aldermen adopted the pro-
posed ordinance for the Alexandria
County Lighting Company to bring
before council June 8 its proposition
to raise the price OF electricity.
The annual appropriation for sal
aries expenses, interest. etc.
amounting to s250.05o was referred
to the finance committee. This,
however, does not take into con-
sideration the cost of operating the
public schools. The schools asked
Tor an appropriation of s11.ss3.ss to
tide them over for the next two
months, the present appropriation
being exhausted.
II was referred to the joint COM
mlttee on finance and schools. The
traf1c ordinance. pending for some
