Has A Democratic Look.

DR.. f. S. Grill returned from ten
days business trip to New York
last Saturday. During his stay in
the Empire state, the doctor says he
became cOnviced that both Park er
and Herrick will carry the state,
unless there should be a decided
change in sentiment between now
and election day.
The doctor goes further and states
that in his opinion Indiana will give
its vote to Parker, and that Michigan
will elect "A democratic governor.
According to DR. Grill, democrats
have every reason to be hopeful of
the election of Parker and Davis.
The doctor says that he had his
ears wide open in New York and has
formed this opinion from what he
has heard. He says that there is an
Enthusiastically strong belief through
out the north that New York is the
pivotal state in this contest, and the
belief is growing that as New York
goes so the country viii go.
Under normal conditions New
York is democratic state, and this
year the political conditions are
about normal If there are any alb
normal conditions they favor the
democrats aud not the republicans
DR.. Grill is an observer who is not
easily lifted off his feet by party
zeal nor caught by the glamour of
campaign sky rockets. He has a
knack of getting at the undercurrent
of sentiment. ana he says that senti-
ment is now Enthusiastically for Par
kpr and Davis.

ABOUT MUSHAM AND WILLIAMS.

While The Eagl is not an apOlogist
for anybody who is In any degree re-
sponsible for the dreadful lroQuois the.
utrt disaster. at the same time 1t would
suggest that reason be used In placing
the blame and gauging the amount
of 1t.
In this connection the case of Fire
Marshal Musham and Building Com
missioner Williams may be appropri-
atcly referred to.
The duty of the fire marshal and of
the department Is primarily ana main
ly to put out fires when they occur.
Sometimes fires occur through viola
tiOns of the fire ordinances In hun.
drcds of cases these violations have
through long stretch of years oc-
cured with the full knowledge of the
Legislative and executive branches of
the city government.
The fire department in this respect
has always fought with its hands tied.
AS regards the building Commission
or. any blame that may attach to him
can only reflect upon his superior In
office. building Commissioner Williams
furnished the Mayor with the report
showing the condition of the thcatcrs
and their failure to comply with the
law. which the Mayor should have act
cd upon. but did not. Herein the May
or shirkcd his responsibility. inasmucli
ns he referred the report upon which he
should have acted to the Council, which
had no authority In the matter. Herein
the building Commissioner did his duty.
and Harrison. as usual. did not do his.
But it should be borne In mind that
it was the report of the Building Com
missioner that furnished the real basis
for the cOroners jury to act In hold
ing Harrison to the Grand Jury.
These two officers, Fire Marshal
MuSham and Building Commissions
Williams. should he treated with due
consideration of all the facts and cir,
| cumstanccs In dealing with this case.
