ITS ANNUAL MEETING
BRIGHTwooD CITIZENS ASSo-
CATION ELECTS OFFICERS.
Discussion of Variety of interests
Action on Proposed Increase
of Taxation.

The annual meeting of the Brightwood
Citizens Association was held last even
ing. An unusually large number of mem
bers assembled early in the hall at Bright
wood, which was tastefully decorated with
American flags in honor of the occasion.
Mr.. Louis P. Shoemaker took the chair be-
hind a handsome bunch of flowers, which
had been placed upon the presiding officer s
table a compliment to the retiring Off
GERS.
After announcing the fact that the meet
ing was the one at which officers would be
elected, Mr.. Shoemaker gave to the associa-
tion an exhaustive resume of the principal
matters accomplished, and inaugurated
during the past year. The speaker paid a
graceful tribute to the members of the as
sociation for their work in cooperating
with him during the past year, and highly
commended the Jealous efforts displayed by
the railroad committee behalf of the
association.
Mr.. Shoemaker declared that while his
association with the members had been
most pleasant. he felt that, as he had oc-
cupied the chair for a period of three years,
Il was time that others were succeeding to
the honor. and announced that nominations
were in order for president to serve during
the ensuing year
Mr.. Wilton ]. Lambert. in speech
strongly indorsing the efforts of Mr.. Shoe
maker as president. together with the CO.
operation of the members declared that 1t
was Mr.. Shoemakers duty to stand by the
members, and irrespective of his personal
desires, to retain the office for at least an
other term. Mr.. Lambert insisted that only
upon one condition would the association
relingush its claim upon Mr.. Shoemaker's S
leadership. and that would be when the
members had the pleasure of seeing him
take his seat one of the triumVirate who
shaped the destinies of the local municipal
ity The speaker therefore nominated Mr..
Shoemaker to succeed himself This an
nCuncement, and the reference to Mr.
Shoemaker's possible candidacy for a Dis
trict Commissiouership was enthusiastical-
ly applauded. The nomination was sec
onded by Mr.. c. c. Lancaster president of
the Northwest Suburban Association, and
the secretary was instructed to cast the
unanimous ballot of the association for Mr..
Shoemaker.
Evening star., 1902-04-12
Other Officers Chosen.

Mr.. C. c. Lancaster, in a few compli-
mentary remarks, nominated Mr.. Wilton
]. Lambert for first vice president, con-
tending facetiously that one of the latter's
best qualifications for the position was his
usual vigorous antagonism to propositions
advanced by Mr.. Lancaster. Mr. Lambert
was thereupon chosen for the office, and
upon nomination. Mr. n. E. Robinson, Mr..
August Burgdorf and DR.. Henry Darling
were elected to the positions of second, third
and fourth vice presidents respectively.
Mr.. John G. Keen was elected secretary
and Mr. Charles w. Ray assistant secre-
tary. Mr.. N. E. Robinson was again chosen
treasurer, this concluding the list of Off
GERS to be selected.

A CHICAGO PETITION.

Chicago, October 4.-SiX thousand Illinois citizens during the last twenty four hours have signed a petition ask ing President Roosevelt to call an extra session of congress to enact some meas ure for the prevention of a coal famine. One method suggested in the petition is a provision for the appointment of d temporary receiver to operate the Penn sylvania mines which are closed up on account of the strike. Petitions are being circulated all over the city CT Chicago and throughout the state of Illinois under the direction of United States Senator William E. Mason.
 There are numerous instances were temporary receivers have been appoint ed for the management of public utili- ties, '" said Senator Mason, and which afford ample precedent for such action in the present emergency. Railroads have been thus treated by the courts on the petition of the people. as can be shown by records. l havein mind, too, a case where the dispute between a municipality and a water works com Dany. which threatened to deprive the people of a water supply. resulted in the appointment of a receiver until the trouble was settled

DEMOCRATIC PARADE
h Which Judge Baker Was Mar
 shal of the Night.

The democratic candidates for the Baker last night before a public a con- siderable part of which concealed it's admiration by staying away from the show. IL could not be said that there was a good attendance. Half the benches were unoccupied and before the principal speaker had concluded his address the audience began to vanish. Whenever the quick eye of the judge noticed a disposition to stampede he related a humorous anecdote and held the crowd a few minutes longer In that way he was compelled to waste his fund of funny stories. The prodi- gality with which he expended them recalled the anecdote of the hunter who was chased by the bear. He threw away first his hat, then his coat and then one article of clothing after another.
 He was saved, for bruin stopped to smell of each article of the discarded wardrobe, but the hunter arrived in camp naked.
 Never was more dreaTy task cut out for an orator. Tn all his experience as
 criminal lawyer Judge Baker never before had such a gloomy duty to per form, but he did it well. One after an- ether of the candidates was held up in the most favorable light
 The speech was begun with reiter- atiol of the doctrine Of Judge Kibbey promulgated at the late republican
 meeting that good government should ! begin at home. In the opinion of Judge ! Baker no better way to begin it could | be devised than by the election of the l entire democratic ticket from top tc ! bottom" He was, he said, the only unworthy candidate. and of himself he
 would not speak further He especially advised the election of J. Elliot Walker

AUTOMOBILE
 AGITATION
Started in England by Gilbert the
 Dramatist.

London, October 4-William s. Gil- bert, the dramatist opened this week in the light Of a conscience stricken motorist anxious to reform others. He wrote to the London Times confessias to having run down a clergyman, and urging more strict regulations for mo- tors and drivers. Thereupon came let teIs from prominent motorists, includ- ing Leopold de Rothschild and Admiral Sir Richard Hamilton declaring that GilbeTt's inexperience in handling q car should not be made a case to hinge further restrictions on an already overpersecuted form of amusement"
 Gilbert replied sticking to his guns and eIicited much sympathy from non motorists. among whom was Lord Rib blesGale. The general gist of the con trCversy indicates a desire on the part of leading public men, motorists or otherwise, to have special legislation dealing with all phases of motoring. In this connection it is announced that Rudyarl Kipling has joined a volun- tcer automobile corps being got up by the war office. The corps has 120 cars at its disposal.

OPERATORS STATEMENT.

New York. October 4.-David Wilcox, vice president of the Delaware and Hudson, emphatically denied that the operators said there was nothing to ar- bitrate. ''The coal operatCrs,' said Wilcox, made it entirely plain that they were using every effort to pro- duce coal ;that if full protection was furnished by the lawful authorities the production would increase very rapidly and the obstruction of such production was due to the methods set on foot by the United Mine Workers, whose representatives were present.
 "In the conference yesterday the op- orators made a suggestion looking to the arbitration of future differences which would be entirely just and prac- ticable.'
 John Markle. independent operator who was present at yesterdays confer ence with President Roosevelt. spent some time in conference with J. P. Nor gan today. MT. Markle said: 'I am satisfied that President Roosevelt did not know the situation of affairs in the anthracite coal fields when he invited us to the conference that took place yesterday. I believe he will now talk the necessary steps to acquaint himself with the situation"
