Should Find Out
Where They Are At.

It begins to look as though the city
government, the bond trustees, the
architect, and the city hall contractor
had better get together and find out
where they are at
An important piece of public work
Is going on, the taxpayers money is
being spent for It, and yet there Is no
recognized head or representative to
look after the taxpayers interests,
and no definite understanding as to
whose duty it is in this case to pro-
tect them.
II appears that Architect AusfeId
thinks the board of public works has
no control over the erection Of the
city hall and that he also does not
regard it as his duty to be present, or
have representative present, while
the work is being done.
In contradistinction to the position
taken by the architect, the chairman
of the board of bond trustees thinks
that the board of public works is the
proper body to supervise the city haIl
construction
Now there are just two things to
be done and they should be done at
once.
First. These various branches OF
the city government, with the archi-
tect and the contractor, should pro-
coed to ascertain who Is responsible
and whose duty it is to look after
this work, and
Second. A representative of the
city should be present daily while
the public work is going on for the
purpose of seeing that 1t is done &C
cording to contract and specifioa-
tions.
If it is Architect Ausfelds business
70 do this work-and the general pre-
sumption has been that that is what
he is being paid for-then he should be
compelled to attend to it. II it is not
his business or a part of his contract,
then some one else should be engaged
at once to stand between the city
and the contractor in the matter.
We do not pretend to go into the
question Of whether good cement or
bad cement is being used in the city
hall building, or whether the walk
Is being done according to contract or
ptherwise-that has nothing to do
With the matter-but commop sense
and business judgment dictate that
the city should be represented by a
competant engineer or architect who
Ihould be upon the ground daily un-
III the work is completed.

beef, in which there was some reduc
ton. What Is still more significant
the foreign preference for meats
killed and prepared in this country
Is shown to be decidedly increasing
The number Of live animals shipped
abroad for food decreased, while the
amount of killed and prepared meats
greatly increased. 1t would seem
that the foreign customers. instead of
being frightened away by the reports
OF bad conditions in the American
packing establishments, must have
been impressed by the fact that we
had the courage to expose those coz
ditions and frankly proceed to rem.
edy them.
Dairy products show the most re-
markable increase of exports, with a
total of s21,5O00,000 sold abroad,
against 100000 for the like period
last year. On the whole no report
ever issued on the subject has more
conclusively proved the dependence
of the outside world upon the United
States for its food than the one just
made public. Despite all stories of
the competition of other lands, the
old world is more at the mercy of
the American surplus than it ever
was before, and that dependence is,
after all, the largest single element in
the present prosperity of this coun-
try.

MANY GUNNERS
OUT AFTER
BIRDS

The open season for shooting quail
began yesterday, and from reports
quite number of persons took ad-
vantage Of the first opportunity of
fered to go into the country and en-
Joy the sport, which has been pre-
vented during the summer months by
the game laws.
While quite number went after
quail yesterday, many of those who
would have liked to enjoy the sport
could not leave business during the
middle of the week, and already par
ties are being formed for Sunday, and
1t is probable that the woods and
fields will be visited by sportsmen in
large numbers on that day.
Quail are reported in large num-
bers in some sections of the county
and at some points along the p. G. \.
division they are said to be more
plentiful than for many seasons.

Southern Ports Win
Over Northern Points.

A Washington statistician compiles
some very interesting figures which
show. according TO the export returns
for the current year, that southern
ports are getting a larger and larger
share of the export business of the
United States in grains. Beginning
at Philadelphia, the returns show
that Philadelphia, Baltimore, New.

ton have been gaining very largely
at the expense Of Boston. Portland,
New York, Montreal and other north
ern ports. The shorter distance to
tide water from the grain country of
the Mississippi valley, together with
the fact that the railroads running
north and south have been taking a
more intelligent interest in reaching
out for this traffic, are responsible
FOR this new condition.
Boston. for instance. has exported
thus far in 1905 only one-third an
much wheat as in the same period of
,905; New York, so per cent. as
much. Philadelphia has gained about
40 per cent, New Orleans sent away
eight times as much, and other south.
ern ports all show large gains.
Another interesting fact concerning
the export trade in foodstutfs is that

THE CAMPAIGN
IN NEW YORK.

Montgomery Journal.

While the betting has been three
to one, and even four to one on
Hughes and against Hearst in New
York, it has been evident from the
beginning of the campaign that these
bets were not made by those who
bet on their judgment in New York,
but was preconceived plan of the
republicans to put up their money, to
make their money talk, so to speak,
thus influencing voters
The opinion is borne out by de.
velopments during the closing week
Of the campaign.
The Hughes forces are apparently
demoralized and on the run. The
tone Of the Associated Press dis.
patches indicate they and also the
New York papers opposing Hearst and
supporting Hughes, indicate it.
This mornings dispatches are OF
peculiar interest and give an anus
ing as well as interesting develop
ment of the contest.
Timothy l.. Woodruff, chairman of
the state republican committee" says
the Associated Press, said to-day
that he will advise the president to
repudiate a campaign document is
sued by the Independence League, in
support of w. R. Hearst's candidacy
for governor. Mr.. Woodruff objects
to the publication in parallel columns
OF extracts of the speeches of the
president and Mr.. Hearst as to the
proper use of wealth."
The action of the independence
League is not a surprise. Why should
not the league publish extracts from
speeches of Theodore Roosevelt show
ing that he and Mr.. Hearst agree on
the essential features of the present
campaign? Why should not Mr..
Hearst be shown less radical
than Mr.. Roosevelt on the paramount
question of the campaign, when the
republicans have been trying to make
Theodore Roosevelt an issue in the
campaign? Why should not Hearst's
friends show that Hearst stands near.
err Roosevelt on important paramount
issues than the republican candidate?
why should not his friends show that

stand by Roosevelt that they must
vote for a man with whom he agrees
on essentials and not for a man who
is supported by all the elements
against which the president has been
lnveighing for the past two years. or
since his defeat of Judge Parker.
We are not surprised that Timothy
woodruff. the republican campaign
manager, should appeal to the presi-
dent to raise his voice against this
use of his campaign speeches, but
we can only wonder how the presi.
dent can go back on his own written
and printed words,

was written. The exhibit of Mr.. Pleas
Is complete in every particular and
not only includes the strictly agricul-

county but the fish that abound upon
the coast, the birds of the air and
the beasts of the field. His display of
SIT fed and mounted birds, indigen-
OTIS to Washington county, is very
beautiful, and their arrangement
shows artistic taste of high de-
gree. He has nearly every species of
fish that swims in the waters of the
coast in his collection and every

the hundreds of articles is artistic
and shows up, the various products
of the county to the best advantage.
Mr.. Chandlee also has a fine collec-
ton of sailed fish, shells, crabs and
sea products, all collected on the
CHORES of the county which the ex-
hibit represents. He has some won

cles too numerous too mention. In
the front of his exhibit is miniature

it is no wonder that it had the I'M
