Mr.. Patten will hardly figure in trade

might have stopped the hitting. But what S
the use!
That man Schiebeck couldn't hit a barn
with a shovel when he was last IL Wash

out four hits yesterday and did more than
his share toward throwing down the Sena-

1t looks like another case of saving the
sood pltcherS for a strong club and hot
clnching victory with a losing team.

 which it is hoped to prevent differ

 secure harmony of action were agreed

 A resolution was adopted for the guidance of the Washington conferees outlining the wishes of the executive committee. These are that the two as- SOciations shall make joint poll of the country for a fund to erect both the monument at Canton and the me 1 morial arch in this city. The territory to be canvassed will include everything except the District of Columbia and the state of Ohio. The desire of the ex- ecutive committee and the proposition which will be made to the board Of trustees of the Canton association is
 that of all the money collected one third shall go to the Canton monument and two-thirds to the memorial arch. The trustees of the Canton associa- ton are scheduled to meet in this city Dec. z, and it is to meet these trustees that the Washington organization ap- pointed conference committee.

 Within q comparatively short time Watertown will be enjoying the ad- yantages Of rural free delivery. The idea is certainly growing more and more in public favor here each day and is agitated constantly.

Guernseytown, Polk districr, East Side and Poverty street like 10 see the mounted mail carrier drive to the door every day, summer or winter Would they appreciate it? It can be very readily understood in what light these benefits in service are looked upon. Postmaster Atwood might not favor the idea because it would Occa- sion residents in the suburban or out lying districts to visit the postoffica hardly once a year. and of course the postmaster runs I drug and hardware store. We know B. c. Atwood would not be expected to be agreeable to any, thing that would in any way lessen the occasions for people to visit his store. Il should be borne in mind that the in- tention of congress in authorizing free delivery of mails in rural districts was not to grant suburban delivery io cities included i'll the free delivery ser vice. nor to establish a village free de- livery. The purpose of the rural free delivery system is to give postal facil- ities to those who have none; to carry the mails daily to remote communities. the residents of which would other wise have to travel from two to twelve niles 10 FecelVe InelF leItefS ana news papers.

 Local industries have already com menced to feel the result Of the rail- road strike. and it is slowly tying up business, especially shipments Of wire.
 It is said that the new addition to the pin factory when completed will accommodate 150 more hands. Why don't the pin company ask fair price for the old wooden shop and allow an- other industry to occupy the same? It would give employment to 250 more hands.

STRANGE BRITISH PROPOSAL.
4 Hint That England Might Support
 the Monroe Doctrine.


 LONDON, Nov 23.-The most inn portant position in today's edition of The Spectator is occupied by q discus sion of a proposal that Great Britain should give it's formal adherence to the Monroe doctrine.
 The Spectator says:
 If A merica will define the Monroe doctrine. why should we not pledge ourselves not to infringe upon it? When we had acknowledged this doc urine. America might propose it to the rest of the powers for indorsement. If sine did, the powers could hardly re- fuse. If they adhered, their adhesion would be of great use, not to America, but to the cause of peace, for it would eliminate great many of the notable causes of war. If the Monroe doctrine became part of the public law of the civilized world, the risk Of a war breaking out with regard to European interference in Brazil or Spanish America, now always q possibility, would then pass away.
 Possibly no other power but Great Britain would at first be willing to rec ognize the Monroe doctrine as binding. Even so. it would be worth our while to pledge ourselves to respect it, for we never mean to attack that doctrine. and sooner or later our example will probably be followed by other powers. :" The Spectator also approves the ca nal treaty and in another article on Secretary Hays foreign policy says:
 No country in the world can show two greater or worthier statesmen than President Roosevelt and Secretary Hay"
