INDIANA DRY.
Vith one dissenting opinion and that coming from
Judge Spencer w ho comes from wet territory the supreme
court has ruled that Indiana will remain dry.
That ends it.
Fellows, you might as w-ell giv up the lease and
the fixtures because there isn"t a chance now in the wide
world.
Outside of those who obtain their livlihood by deal
ing in liquor, there was general satisfaction in the cities
of the Calumet region when the news was given by
TIMES extras yesterday, now that Indiana was by th
decision of the highest tribunal in the land ruled dry.
That prohibition w-ould benefit the industrial and bus
iness world in the Calumet region if it is rigidly enforced
is the opinion of in lust rial heads and works managers.
The law must be observed however and it is now
up to the sheriff and the various chiefs of police to see
that it is kept. There is a lot of bootlegging done in the
region and there is still plenty of booze hidden away.
There is a lot of drunkenness, but the region's close prox
imity to the state line is largely responsible.
st Hammond will hp a rich place. Is saloonmen
wili co;n money. The poison sold at some of th estab
lishments over there is pretty cheap stuff. When one
saloon pu's in six cash registers and has six bartenders
doling out drinks to people who beg for them, it shows
what West Hammond can do. Why if you put down a
dollar for a dr.nk in some of those places they laugh at
you if you ask for change. They are making hay while
the sun shins. Whether the prohibition law will work
very well up here is difficult to sy, because we are not
at all sure the law- is observed.
It will not work th hardships expected. Business is
good and all th0 salecn buildings will be ren'ed fpr othr
purposes. Tho.-e emplo.wri ned have no trouble in get

The son of former Governor Ralston is cne of the
thirty-eight young men of military age who hav been
exempted from service by the request of the State De
partment. Young Ralston obtained his job a few months
ago and it would be illuminating to know just wherein
his services are of a nature so valuable that it was
deemed expedient to ask h'.s exemption. What calls
especial attention to this case is the fact that the sen
ior Ralston last week delivered a speech before th" dem
ocratic state convention bitterly arraigning republicans
for daring to crlticiz? any act of the administration and
boastingly settina: up the claim that all of the achieve
ment? of the war are the achievements of the demo
cratic party. It was a speech of bubbling patriotism
but somehow it might a rung a little near true had Julian
Ralston been in France with those scrappy Roosevelt
clubs instead of holding down a safety first job in a
Washington office. Fort Wayne News.
.e might also ask Tom Marsha!! who thought he;.iSOn volunteered before his number
was awfully funny with his Lady Theodora speech I was called. He wnt quietly, modest H-
where his sons were and also what he has done to win
the war that will in any way compare with Roosevelt's
various services?
