LETTER TO CHAs. WHEELER.

Dear Sir: Take two-story house and
reckon the cost with different paints;
you will be surprised. Say the house has
total of 1910 square feet.
Divide by 300; you buy II gallons
That's the rule; but it never comes out
so.
Buy any other paint than Devoe, you
will have to buy more, up to possibly %
gallons. Paint Devoe, and you'll have
gallon or two to return. Here are
some experiences.
R Watkins, Lott Texas, used 19
gallons on his house before !; bought 13
gallons DevOe for some house and had
6 left
G b Edwards of Edwards & Brough-
ton, printers. Raleigh, N G, used 30
gallons paste paint on his house; bought
30 gallons Devoe for same house and had

GaOSSCUP TO FRAME LAW
President Roosevelt Selects Chicago
Jurist to Aid in Reforming
the CORPORATIONS.

Chicago. Oct. IA special to the Rec
ord-Herald from Indianapolis says:
During a conversation at dinner at
the Columbia club last night Federal
Judge Peter s. Grosscup of Chicago said
that he had been requested by President
Roosevelt to select a committee to make
suggestions to the president for a law
to reform corporations, and he had de-
cided to comply. Judge Grosscup said
his idea of such a law was for a con-
gressional enactment that would bring all
corporations doing an interstate business
under regulation by the general govern
ment. He said that he would soon select
the men to serve with him on the COM
mittee and that they would go into the
details of the whole subject and attempt
to devise a law that would place corpo-
rations under control of the government
It was his opinion that future organiza-
tons doing interstate business could cas-
lily be brought under such law. He
lent the impression that there might be
some question as to whether such law
could require similar corporations already
organized under state law TO reincorpo-
rate under a national law.

DIED IN HANDS
OF COMMITTEE
Ordinance Greatly Desired by
People of 0gdenNot Allowed
to Become a Law.

During the past week there has been
much inquiry by the citizens of Ogden
concerning what has become of the or
dinance introduced by DR.. G. a. Dickson
a few weeks ago and which provides
that the city treasurer shall give his
whole time to the duties connected with
the office, instead of its being handled
by some employee of bank, as it is at
present. This measure also provided for
increasing the salary of the office to sl25
month.
Immediately after the introduction CT
the proposed ordinance the council re-
ferred it to the law committee. of which
William Craig Republican candidate for
mayor, is the chairman. In this com
mittee's hands the measure has been al
lowed to die, for this had been previously
willed by some of those who consider
their personal interests first and those OF
the city afterWard
ANY matter referred to a committee
of the council and not reported on with
i'm two weeks becomes null. Inc time
for reporting on the above ordinance ex-
pired last Monday evening, the date upon
which the council met i'll regular Ses-
sion. No report from the law commit
tee was offered. William Craig, candidate
for mayor and chairman of the law COM
mttee was absent. Those members Of
the council who desired to see the or
dinance become a Jaw were poWerleSs
At the time this ordinance was intro
that it would become a law and that
one of the most Objectionable features
of the city government would be rene
died. This met with much favor among
the taxpayers, who i'm the past, when
they have had business with the treas
urer, have been forced to wait at the
bank for a long time, until the wants of
the customers of the bank had been at
tended to. But it was another case of
being too good to be true. A short time
afterward it began to be rumOred that
conditions had changed and that the Or
dinance would not become a law. How
ever, those VINO favored the movement
had hopes and waited to see what would
be done by the city fathers at the meet
ing a week ago. just before the coun-
ell met a telephone message was received
from Mr.. Craig to the effect that he
would not be present This was the fl
male as far as the ordinance was con-
cerned and so far explanations have not
been forthcoming

VICTORY EXPECTED.
Ogden Democrats in Exceptionally
Fine Shape This Year.

The campaign in Ogden has now passed
the skirmish point and from this time
on the hard licks'' will be put in by
both parties. From the time that the
Democratic forces We're organized, imme-
diately after their convention. they have
been working hard, and today the party,
locally, is in a better position than it
has been in for many years. Many Of
those who in years past have refused to
take any part I'm the campaign have got
ten into the harness. with the result that
there is a general awakening of interest
and their chances for winning a straight
victory this fall are extremely bright.
On the other hand, the Republican out
fit has shown but little life which is
taken to indicate that they expect
Democratic victory on Nov. 3.
In the main the campaign thus far has
been an unusually clean one In some
instances. however, some of the old tao
tics so long used by those in power have
been permitted to crop out. The battle
aside from this, has been free from mud
singing and many of the other disagree
able features that usually attach them
selves to a campaign.
