u.s. and while some OF our friends may think we
are losing votes by the active interest we are
taking in local politics, hold to the idea that
we would be unfit to hold the office of Prison Com
missioner or any other if We hesitatCd about what
we consider to be our duty to the local polite.

other city, And ALSO according to news reports,
there are a number of gentlemanly burglars, pick
pockets and murderers, who make that their home
and who are too nice to be molested.

Hon. Marion Dickson says in his platform:
II have always advocated temperance and be.
lieve in the present state prohibition law and
favor a constitutional amendment Incorporating
prohibition in the constitution of the state * * j.;
That is talk with the right ring to it and
leaves no possible doubt as to Mr.. Dicksons stand
or purpose in the matter.
for Fitzgerald o
Another holocaust has destroyed the lives OF
$50 children confined in a badly arranged school
building at Cleveland, Ohio This is the second
terrible catastrophe of the kind in the United
States during the past few months. 1t is criminal
negligence of the highest order to neglect to pro
vide every possible means Of escape from school
buildings in case of fire.
The children in this last fire were caught like
rats in trap and more than hundred were burn
ed in full view of their parents unable to get out
of the building because of inadequate means of
egress Instances are enumerated of heroic deeds
of teachers and parents and others who rallied to
lend aid that paint the scene one almost without
parallel in history.
A catastrophe like this one is 4 terrible lesson
one which teaches the awful sacredness of the
duty that public officials and the guardians of hui
man beings owe 1t teaches that negligence or
carelessness or the mot doing of duty costs and
costs so dearly that nothing ever repay the
debt In the building burned at Cleveland there
was but one available exit, and that such was the
case is prma aca evidence of criminal carelessness
but how is the blame to be fixed.
Let us hope that it will not be necessary for
such an awful lesson to be brought nearer our
doors before everything possible is done to protect
the lives of our babies and too. of our grown peo-
