Bile, they have made peace more prob-
able. and have emphasized tho univer-
sal love Of peace. They have made a
gain for the worlds repoae; and Amer

compished, rejoice also for their par
ticipatiog In the great cause yet to be
advanced, We trust. to moro perfect

VETOESTHE MARKET PLAN
Mayor Vasaly Objects to the
Proposed Change in the
Market Site.

Mayor Vasaly has vetoed the reso-
luton fixing a site for new market
place. He gave as one of his reasons
for vetoing it that the present loca'
ton costs the city nothing, while il
it was moved to the proposed place
the city would have to pay the taxes,
keep the sidewalks in repair and do
other things necessitating expense.
He said that the present site was
large enough and that the talked-o1
one was too small.
He said that he had received pc
tition signed by several people in the
Second ward who desired that the
market place should not be located
where the council desire it should be.

Adam Bede in the Ring.

Pioneer Press: The appearance
of Adam Bede as a candidate fol-
the Republican nomination for
congress next year in the Sixth
district is likely to complicate the
situation there for Judge Morris.
The Judge has been elected twice
by such narrow margin that this
fact, together with his failure to
command the support of his own
town, forms Bede's chief argu-
ment for his unavailability. What
ever may be said Of Morris abil-
ity as vote getter, or his person.
al popularity with some OF his
constituents, there is no question
as to his ability and efficiency as a
representative. Being a close and
warm friend of Henderson, who is
to be speaker of the next house, he
will probably be put on some
committee where he can be of
particular service to his constitu-
ents, and his friendship with Hen.
derson will one of his strong po-
litical cards. He has, too. the adj
vantage of position and in the
growing reluctance Of constitu-
ences to part with representatives
just as their services have become
most vauabl e. On the other hand.
Bede has certain elements of popu.
lar strength, and of strength with
the politicians, which will have to
be counted with. He is one of
the most effective and convincing
political speakers in the state, and
he is so because Of the breadth OF
his information aud the logical
power of his argument. He is
honest, able and courageous. He
will undoubtedly put up strong
fight for the nominatian.
