The editor would herewith return
thanks to Gov "A. B. CummiEs for
his appointment as delegate to the
Missouri River Navigation. Congress
to be held at Sioux City on Jan. 22nd
The appointment as delegate car
ries with it no compensation and we
have been long enough acquainted
with the work of the Governor S
office to know that it is not to be
taken too seriously. nevertheless we
are grateful for the kindly remember
ance. If possible we shall attend.
America has been magnificently,
hilariously extravagant. She is young
and has been sowing her wild oats. if
young ladies can be accused of so do
ing. She is just coming to her senses
about some things. and one of Them is
the conservation of her splendid
waterways. In some countries rivers
not much larger than the Boyer would
be made of use. in America the ire
mendous Missouri is allowed to go to
waste. No wonder Europeans think
this land of millionaries.
Besides all this. Sioux City is such
jolly. jovial. town? wide open in
its affections. their cooking is 80 good.
and their fellowship 80 fine that we
shall allow them to entertain us

MAYNARD STEPS OUT
Last Republican Supervisor Yields Place
to Democrat

The board of supervisor is now
solidly democratic. Henry Maynard
the stalwart Jackson township repub-
lican yielded his place to John Hol-
land now of Vail. Before Mr.. May
nard left the board however he made
a motion in the interest of economy
which will save the county $500 a
year at least. The motion was that
the office of deputy sheriff to be sta
toned at Arion. be abandoned. On the
motion Baeth voted with Maynard
while Cook and Ahart voted No. The
tie vote was decided by Molter voting
eyes,, and Hank Cummings was out
of job. Hank is good fellow and
no one seems to have it in for him
personally, but 1t was recognized that
a special county officer was no longer
needed at Arlon.
The joke of it is however the
Watch dog of the Treasury" Johr
Cook voted against the retrenchment.
The joke is still more apparent wher
one learns from MIR. Maynard tina,
Mr.. Cook urged him to make the
motion and gave him to understand
that he would support it. Why Mr.
Cook changed his mind we do MOI
knew. Well, the democrats have il
all their own way now. and the re
uolicans at least have no RESPONSE
bllitles to worry about.

Overseer of the Poor Gustave Kunz,

before Police Judge Bray, of that city,
today to explain why he, Maxon, had
cast aspersions on the poor department
in handling the case of Mrs. Mary
Dech, of Gone street, Orange. who did
not SEND her children to school.
The judge listened to both sides of
the story and came to the conclusion
that Mr. Maxon had not understood
the case in question when he had crit
cized Mr.. Kunz.
Mrs. Dech was arraigned before
Judge Bray Monday for keeping her
three children from school, and de-
clared hat she was unable to send
them because they had nothing to eat
and no shoes. Since then the woman
has obtained work at the Bureau OF As

of the poor, inc the children have been
going to school.

South Orange School Board
Hopes to Convince People

The matter of providing adequate
public schools was discussed last night
by the Board of Education in relation
to the action of the special school meet
ing on Tuesday evening. At that meet
ing the S19, 100 appropriation requested

wish to have she matter more fully
presented before determining what
amount should actually be voted. 1t
was therefore decided to call another
special meeting of the district, the de-
tails concerning which will be ar
ranged by the Board of Education ON
Thursday evening, May 2S. A detailed
statement of the work required and of
the financial provisions therefor will be
prepared. and the question as to a bond
issue determined.
The commencement committee re-
ported the following dates for closing
exercises: Thursday. June IS, Hilton

ment. s p. M; Friday, June 10. Column

VOICE FROM
THE GRAVE COMES
WORD OF GOV. GARD
South Orange Family Hears De-
tails of His Fight in the
Philippines.

Like a voice from the grave is the
word received today by William E.
Gard, of 6S Taylor place, South Or
ange, from his son, Allan Gard, civil
governor of the province of Lanao.
Philippine Islands, who was reported
by cable a week ago to have died in a
hospital of wounds inflicted by a Moro,
and which was later denied. The word
comes in the shape of a letter to Wal
ter S. Gard, brother of Allan, who is a
junior in the school of arts at Yale
University and who Immediately tele-
phoned his parents.
Mr.. Gard writes that a white man
and an expedition was sent against the
m~arauders. The governor, in order to
facilitate matters, went to arrest two
dattos, with the intention of having
them bring pressure to bear on tbs
natives so that several men who were

WANT NEW FIRE
CHIEF EVERY YEAR
IN SOUTH ORANGE
Volunteer Vamps Think That
Would Remove Alleged
Discrimination.
OPPOSITION TO CHIEF
BECKER CONTINUES STRONG
Latter Asks for a General ReOr.
ganizati0n of the De-
partment.

Rebelling against the present head of
the South Orange fire department, Chief
Harry j. Becker, and claiming alleged
favoritism as their reason. the village
volunteer vamps are today circulating
a petition in the three companies, which
will probably be presented to the VIII
lage Board CT Trustees at a meeting
Saturday night. asking for the privilege
of holding an annual election for chief
and two assistants.
Nine years ago. at the request of the
lremen who elected Becker, and a num-
Der of whom are now up in arms
against him, the village board arranged
1t so that the chiefs then elected would
be permanent in Office. until it was
ascertained that they did not fulfill the
duties required Of them properly.
As another reason for wanting the
yearly election, the firemen say that in.
asmuch as the Hook and Ladder Conn
pany has had a representative at the
head of the department in Chief Becker.
the other companies and fremen who
are striving for the same honors cannot
get them.
Chief Becker claims that the de-
partment is in a bad way and has
asked the Village Trustees to call for
a general reorganization. He would
have the two hose companies and Hook
and Ladder Company divided into two
companies, doing away with one hose
company.
He is a to have asked the village
board to have only ten men for each
of the two companies. This would do
away with ten mel, as there are thir-
ty men now In the department.
Instead of paying them S12 a year
as volunteers. he would give them "a
substantial sum-about S10o-as run
ners." The chief is said to have asked
a salary of $3.50 yearly for his own
services.
Beyond the BUSTING of Chief Becker
the firemen shave even gone so far as
to select their favorites for chief. Fore
man Cornelius p. Nolan, of Hook and
Ladder; Patrick McCabery, of Hose
Ladder; Patrick McCahery. of Hose
Company No. 1. Former Chief George
Company No. l, are said to be among
those who may be asked to stand in
the event of the board granting the re-
quest.

a reception in their honor. The recep-
ton was held yesterday.
The three were summoned to the
principals office after class, and were
escorted by their companions to the as
sembly room, all marching to the
strains of the wedding march.
Arriving in the assembly room, a
dainty lunch was served at small
tables. Miss Florence L. Woodruff was
the toastmistress, and each guest
present responded in her turn.
Miss Guy is to marry George kessel-
ring. of Orange, and Miss Riggs will
marry Albert l.. Jones, of Orange, a
LAWYER practising in New York. Miss
Baker will give her hand in marriage
