health to several producers of milk in
New Hampshire. in informing them
that If they desire to continue To fur

District Attorney William Travers
Jerome stated recently that he had no
intention OF either asking for or con-
senting TO a change OF venue for the
next trial Of Harry X. Thaw.
There is no reason why the case
should not be tried in New York .>~he
said. Il shall certainly not ask for a
change Of venue. and will just as GER
tainly fight an application for change
il the defense makes one"
Clifford w. Hartridge OF counsel for
Thaw said that SO far as he knew no
move was contemplated looking to-
ward holding the second trial outside
OF New York city He expressed the
opinion that Thaw's second trial, like
the first, would be held here. II is
said that the city OF BinghamtOn had
been selected as the scene OF the sec
ond Thaw trial.

William II. Stead of London, the other
speaker Of the evening, he said: Il

Traffic through many Of our best

It has no systematic regulation. In

Arlington street and Park square, were

in New York established by the police

forced. and the result is beneficial to
all The question has often been ask
ed, why cannot Boston have some right

streets. with policemen assigned TO
see that they are enforced.

The Boston floating hospital, through
Mrs. J.. G.. BuTnham, one OF its most
earnest and devoted friends, has just
been presented with the steam yacht
Pilgrim. The yacht, which was original

America cup, was built in 1893. and
was used by Mr.. Burnham as a pleas

The presentation is made as a me-

The first political hotel in this city
was Martling's tavern, which occu.
pied the site of the Sun building. 1t
was the resort of Burr and his crowd,
and eventually became Tammany Hall
the most noted political center New
York ever contained. After Tammany
had moved uptown, Charles A. Dana
bought the property for the Sun, pay
ing $4,000 for what is now worth
100000. Here during the last Clay
presidential canvass, Isaiah Rynders
and the Empire club had their head
quarters and succeeded in defeating
the great commoner" The first inn
that had a social character was the
ture in Broadway, near Wall Street,
and was noted for balls and other en-
tertainments. it was built by Ezra
Weeks, brother OF Levi Weeks who
was tried for the Manhattan well mur-
der, but was acquitted. Later on
John Jacob Astor bought it for $12S,.
600 and the land is now worth two
or three millions. Here Washington
Irving was dined on his return from
Europe in 1882. and here, too, occurred
the interview between Thurlow Weed
and William RI. Seward. the Whig lead
DpI ITnr1nn ErnnlnN whom fhnN
engaged to edit the Log Cabin, the
smartest campaign paper that ever
was published. and which did so much
toward the election Of General Harri-
son in 1910. Here, too, occurred the
Chancellor Lansing mystery, for the
chancellor was a guest at the time of
his disappearance, and some said he
hanged himself in the garret, being in
financial difficulty, and that the ira
gedy was suppressed, while others
thought that he took the steamboat for
Albany and fell overheard, and SO
the mystery still remains.
The out-of-town resident who visits
a large metropolitan city only occa-
sionally is much impressed by the
racket or noises heard on every hand
He cannot understand how the city
resident can so calmly endure the
blowing of whistles on factories, trains
and boats, the changing Of bells on
trains. trolley cars, clock towers and
churches, the vociferous advertising
methods of hawkers and pedlers, as
well as the rafting of wagons over
loose parts of the streets. All these
things combined make the visitor
return home rs soon as possible in
order TO be once more in calm at
mosphere.
In this city The Society for the
| Suppression of Unnecessary Noise
has been accomplishing meritorious
work. For example. II interested the
/ street railways in its objects and a
| special order was issued by the Off
] cials of the roads TO the motormen
! saying. when passing a church dur
| ing the hours of service. and at all
| times when passing a hospital, run
slowly and do not ring the gong un
| less necessary. Motormen should ap
] preciate that patients in hospi
tails should not be subjected TO any
more noise than is absolutely neces
sary: their position is sufficiently un
fortunate without adding to their dis
comfture unnecessarily"
The society also has enlisted the
cooperation of automobilists. The
association OF licensed automobile
manufacturers has just passed a vote
approving Of the purposes OF this SO
ciety.

Since the legislature, on joint

the further fact that Governor

there ought MOTTO be any quibling
over his election. The voice of

his nomination by decisive
majority. There was no question
as to the.legatity of his nomina-

The effort onsthe part Of some to
make his election doubtful, or to

The sweeping Republican, icto-
ry in this State has no precedent
South of the Ohio, and while not
pleasant to.the taste of true Demo
Gratis, yet it may be a blessing in
disguise. For the last ten years
the political situation has been
clouded with uncertainty and for
the same period of time the Demo-
cratic party has had it wars within
and its battles without, constant
ly on the run but never safe in
it's positions nor certain of ultimate
success. The fact is that all of
our old leaders were driven from
power by the younger set: per-
sonal ambition seized the reins,
rode a fieeting public sentiment
which was mistaken as perma-
nent evidence Of endorsement,
but fell, fell at an unexpected
time taking down with it the
fond hopes Of unwavering Demo
Gratis in every part of the State.
While we have no power to regu-
late, nor are weinclined to dictate,
yet as a Democrat, we hope to see
the follies of the past outlived, the
mistakes corrected and Democra-
cy ethroned to rule as in the good
old days of long ago, honestly,
fearlessly and impartially. The,
large majority to the credit of the
Republican nominees does not
mean that Kentucky is Republi-
can State, it does not mean that
the people who gave it want Re-
-publicanstheories to prevail, but it
does mean that thousands of
Democrats are tired, worn out
and determined to change the
management of our party. That
no one thing brought the defeat
is evident and no one man is re-
sponsible. Divisionover national
issues, followed by party convul-
sions over personal favorites led
to defeat the first time in 1895
and on the heels of that memora
