GROCERIES
DESTROYED
DESTRUCTIVE SUNDAY MORNING
FIRE AT MOBLEY a SONS
GROCERY STORE. BUILD
ING WAS SAVED.
ALL THE CONTENTS RUINED.
Partly Covered by Insurance. Good
Work Of Fire Department.

Chichasha was visited by fire
early Sunday morning. About one
o'clock party passing the grocery
store OF Mobley & Sons observed
FIRE in the rear. The flames were
at that time making rapid headway
An alarm was at once turned in to
the FIRE department which prompt
ly responded.
The entire rear end Of the store
was ablaze and the flames were
bursting out. Entrance was effect
ed BY the fire boys by breaking in
window A big stream of water
was turned on the burning mass
and soon the boys were able to push
past the flames and fight them
back from the front. In this way
the boys soon had the fire under
control.
The fire seems to have started at
the northwest corner Of the build
ing. There is no explanation of
| its origin. A great amount of
clothing and other goods in the
rear of the store were entirely de-
stroyed, while SO interse was the
heat that the goods all over the
store were SO damaged that they
are almost valueless Nearly all
thecanned and bottled goods on the
shelves burst;;- show cases and ev-
Ell the plate glass in the front win
dows were broken by the heat.
Gums in the show case in the ex-
treme front of the store had the
varnish melted from them.
The stock was valued at about
S4, 900. Insurance was carried in
companies represented by Dwyer <
Smith to the amount of SIPS. II
will be some time before the firm
can resume business.
1t was disastrous fire to Mob
ley & Son but ii might have been
much more destructive had it moi
been for the promptness and the
pluck Of the fire boys. Nothing
but quick and effective action could
have saved the building and per
haps the entire block.

operation in the working out of the
problems that are before you.
Finances.
The opening of the year 1905 finds the
state of Michigan practically out Of
debt. With great promptitude the ex-
traordinary expenditures caused by the
Spanish war have been met; and the
established principle of paying as we go
is steadfastly adhered to.
There is, however, a well defined feel
ing among people generally in this state
that state expenditures have reached the
limit of present judicious requirements.
With this feeling am in thorough &C
cord. While Michigan may well be
proud of her state institutions and sat
isfied with the general conduct of the
several state departments, yet 1t may
well be questioned whether this result
has been brought about by that degree
of business prudence which similar
conditions demand in the business
world. 1t is because of this that would
impress upon you the necessity of care
fully investigating all recommendations
for appropriations which you may OFF,
cially or otherwise receive.
The question of insuring good bust
ness methods in the several state insti-
consideration. suggest the granting
to the auditor general of greater powers
in connection with the accounts of these
institutions. l recommend that the
auditor general be required to report
monthly to the governor any receipt or
expenditure by any state institution,
state department or any public official
required to file vouchers with the audit
or general, which, after careful exam
ination by him, shall bear evidence OF
improper or injudicious business meth
DDS; and that the auditor generals de-
partment be required to examine all
vouchers with this purpose in mind. The
governor would thus be furnished in
formation upon which sufficiently
prompt action could be taken to pre-
vent the recurrence of the improper
acts.
also recommend that in the conduct
of the several state departments the
salaries Of the employees, including the
clerical force, should be based upon
actual duties performed. A system has
gained prevalence. especially in the cap
itol building, of paying practically every
clerk $1,000 per year, regardless OF

MINIsTRATIoN TO THE
LEGISLATURE.
DETERMINED TO CARRY
OUT PARTY PLEDGES
Urges Economy in State Finances and
Institutions-State Reported Prac-
tically Out Of Debt-State Taxation
and Other Matters.

Lansing, Mich, Jan. 5.-Following Is
the full text of the inaugural message OF
Gov. Fred M. Warner. sent to the legis-
lature Thursday:
Established custom imposes on the
governor of this state, at the beginning
of the term for which he Is elected, the
duty of making to the legislature such
recommendations as he deems expedi-
ent. Following this custom, would call
your attention to the following matters:
This legislature takes up its labors
representing a united and prosperous
constituency from every portion of this
great state. Our farms and our factories
have yielded fruitful harvests. Our
mines and our quarries show no signs
of exhaustion of their great treasures.
Capital and labor are probably en-
ployed, and in general q feeling of mu-
tual satisfaction exists between them.
Under such circumstances bespeak a
session profitable to the state as a result
of wise and conservative legislation on
your part
Party responsibility cannot be nor
should not be divorced from official acts
In legislative and Administrative halls,
but in the control and management of
the affairs of great state, partisan pol
itics should never be theSruling motive.
That only one political party is to be
represented in your deliberations makes
the responsibility the greater, and the
necessity for proper subsection Of
party spirit more obvious.
With a deep feeling of responsibility
to the people who, by the exercise OF
their franchise. have chosen me to be
the chief executive of this great state,

"senefioent Anarchy"

From the Atlanta Constitution.
Tolstoi IN his usual rugged and err
ratio fashion. has been drawn INTO
speech by the recent moving events in
the Russian empire. In an interview
he declares the present unrest viii re-
suit in a revolution more complete ana
far-reaching than that one made ORA
matically historic by the people OF
France.
In his talk he makes use Of the
rather peculiar expression, "benehcent
anarchy" which he applies to the pro-
cess through which the empire Is now
passing. He argues further that while
there have been bombs and outrages,
these are not Of the essence Of
the movement. which is noble effort
toward national individual emancipa-
ton" He further believes that the
change will come lin a gentle way
and through fraternity"
No more complete or pathetic evil
dence could be presented OF this mag
nifcent old mans deterioration IN keen
Judgment and discernment, or his old
time weakness Of sef-cOntradiction.
But a few months ago he was ming
ling the most severe attacks on an
archy. resistance Of any nature, with
his wonderful word pictures Of the
forlorn conditions in the country and
his stirring appeals TO ue people to
throw off the yoke by passive means.
The fact that his own sons were Off
GERS in the Russian army and that
their actions and public expressions
were instinct with the most fervid pa
triotism was not sufficient to check
him from the utterance Of this odd
and confusing philosophy
As II revolutions of any consequence
in world history have been passive"
such a thing is impossible in its ma
ture And how can Tolstoi for a mo-
ment think that the present forward
status Of reform would have been pos
sible without bombs and outrage"
The people and their most powerful
could have accomplish
ed nothing with the stubborn and mer-
cenary autocracy had not popular and

\ sents the following which it
clips from one Of our recent utter
ances;
Among the Republicans the chief
feeling is one Of indignation that POST
