SEE REPUBLICAN, VICTORY
Mr.. Cleveland predicts a big republI-
an victory ana declares that it wiz
aean that Hammond will again sur
ass Gary in voting strength With
rst paper voters discontinued, Gary's
egistration is little larger than Ham
nond's and the vote in this city Tues
ay. promises to be larger than in tho
teel town because r 0. Johnsonss
lection is an assured fact. There is
othing to 1t in Gary except Johnson.
With a vote Of $4,000 Hammond wills
ave 5000 more than East Chicago and
a all probability 1000 greater than
ary. Suffrage and the constitutions
mendment have accomplished this
3r Hammond. With a republican ma
,rity of 1000 or 1900 next Tuesday
will be the deciding factor
Lake county politics a year hence
