A FEW DAYS WILL
 TELL THE STORY
OF RELIABLE COMPANIES FUTURE
Great Harrington Men Have Sub scribed $31,OOO to Induce Ca naan's Knitting Mill to Change its

Location.
 Within few days it will be definitely known whether The Reliable Knitting Company is to continue as Canaan 1n- dustry or be removed to Great Barring ton.
 The Great Harrington people are anx- ious for it and have obtained subscrlp- tions amounting to $31 ,00O The figure named by the company which will in duce them to leave Canaan is considera- bly, in excess of this amount and the plant will not be removed unless the de- sired amount is assured. In all proba- bility the latter part of the present week will bring forth decision, in fact the company insist that it be decided then as the uncertainty at present existing as to the future of the plant makes "hard wheeling for manager Roberts.
 It will be source of profound regret to THE NEWS if this concern leaves Ca- naan but, of course, Canaan cannot ex- pect to retain it if some other place is 0Dl6 UO h bIAouo0hu OO1Ae"AS ava each hundred Canaan folks are able to invest in the enterprise. We believe the future of the plant is to be pros porous one regardless of it's location. Orders are pouring in every day, in fact they have been coming so rapidly of late that the concern has withdrawn from the New York market for the reason that they could not possibly fill the orders if they were taken. ..s ~
 The removal of the plant from Ca- naan will be keenly felt and will be a decided setback for the village, which during the recent past has taken on ac- tivity, hustle and Ibustle such as were unknown in former days. ....t..
 If the plant moves, this newspaper will, however, have the satisfaction of knowing, that it has done it's part to- ward retaining it for Canaan.

Sheath Breaks Records.

State Treasurer John o. Sheath has
broken all records for the psym of the
state school appropriation, the total dis
bursement for this object alone in the
sixty days between June | and Aug.
sggregating the magnificent total OF
81, ,O69, HIS, or Sl,67o,723 more than paid
in the same period last year.
According to the statement of business
at the treasury for the month just closed,
the receipts of the treasury were 50, l52, :
54l As aud the payments 81 ,955, $3.50 over
half of which went for school purposes.
The general balance in the treasury at the
close of July business was Sll ,94S, 1864,
ofwhich 50, ,426, ,525.35 was in the general
fund and s., ,5l7, ,27O69 was in the sinking
fund. Oft balances S523, 900 is held by
the Allegheny National bank, which
closed.
The payment of school money is con-
sidered to be notable on Capitol Hill, as
it goes far beyond any record ever made
in the preceding administration. In ad-
dition there was drawn warrants for over
$50, 600 more by the department Of public
instruction which did not reach the treas
ury In July. Mr.. Sheath stood ready to
cash them. In all l,sll of the 1850 dis
tricts were paid.

To Improve Country Life.

To bring about better social. san

American farms, President Roosevelt
has requested four experts on country
life to make an investigation into the
whole matter and to report 20 him
with recommendations for improve
ments. The report and recommends
lions, with any alrecommenda
tions which the president himself may
desire to make, will be incorporated
IN a message which the president will
send to congress, probably early next
year.
The men President Roosevelt has
asked to act as an investigating COM
mittee are Professor l.. II. Bailey OF
the New York College of Agriculture;
Henry Wallace of Wallace's Farmer,
Des Moines, Ia. President Kenyon l..
Butterfeld of the Massachusetts Ag-
ricultural college, Clifford Pinchot of

Canadian Pacific shopmen oult.

Union shopmen employed by the
Canadian Pacific struck in all shops on
the system from the Atlantic to the
Pacific, and all shops are idle. II is
estimated that 10000 men went out,
the largest number being over 1000
in Montreal. Fifteen hundred quit at
Winnipeg. Two thousand left work
between Fort William and Vancouver,
all at the dictates Of the executive
committee of the various unions at
fected. Even older workmen In line
for pensions went home. 1t seems
to be the most extensive strike In the
history of railway shops in Canada.
All the workmen employed around
Eie train sheds at depots went out
and conductors and engineers caused
some delay to trains by insisting that
trains should be properly made up be-
fore they would take them out. Ev-
cry wheel in the shops stopped and
every nre died out when the whistle
blew three short blasts, care-takers
and shop foremen alone being left to
put the places in shape for the period
Of idleness bound to follow.
The Canadian Pacific railway offi.
cials' view is that the finding of con-
Citation board, appointed at the re-
quest of the men, should be binding on
the men.

ZeppeIin,s Airshlp DESTROYED.

A dramatic end came to Count Yep
pelin's long endurance flight in his
monster dirigible balloon, and the
proud airship which lately was cutting
rapidly through the air and outdis-
tancing pursuing automobiles lies in
a field near Echterdingen a mass of
twisted, useless metal. The count, al
most heart-broken and unable longer
to endure the sight of his shattered
craft left by train for Friedrichshafen.
The airship had left Nackenheim,
the scene of its first mishap, and over
night had visited Mayence and started
on the homeward journey.
An explanation of the accident given
by experts is that probably one of the
balloonettes of which the immense
envelope was constructed burst and
that a spark from the motor ignited
the gas when the balloon was carried
into the air.

Hon. Lewis Emery, Jr., has received
another letter from Charles H. Rathbone
of the Pennsylvania Oil Company, dated
Tampico, Mexico, July 30th, Mr.. Rath-
bone says that the gusher belonging to
the above company is still burning, and
has torn hole in the ground about 200
feet in diameter. 1t Is now a veritsble
volcano Of boiling, seething oil. On &C.
count of the enlargement of the opening
the oil does not spout as high as formerly.
Occasionally the oil overflows and is
carried burning to a swamp about a
thousand feet away. How deep the
newly formed crater is, is unknown, but
as the letter was written an effort was be-
ing made to determine this. The plan is
being considered of shooting gravel into
the aperture by means of huge pump,
aud in this manner smothering the
flames. The drilling of an angle well, as
was proposed some time ago, has been
given up as impractical. Shields of sheet
iron fixed to frames have been made, and
by the use of these it is possible to gel
nearer the well. One hundred and forty
three sappers and miners connected with
the Mexican army have been sent to the
we'll by the government. They are en-.
gagged in throwing up embankments
wherever needed.

REMEMBER the glories of Bryan the
bravel This country for years he's been
trying to save; he's talked by the year
he's talking some more; he's talked when
his throat was 40 frightfully sore that his
voice was whiskered and needed a shave
remember the glories of Bryan the
bravel Some heroes have fought for
their country with swords, and some for
their country have squandered their
boards; and sages have written, and
poets have sung, but Bryan has fought
with his double-edged tongue; o long
may that weapon in majesty wave-re-
member the glories of Bryan the brave!
The western Chautauquas are strewn
with his dead, the lyceum circuit, he's
painted it red; the jawbone of Samson
innocuous was as compared with the
tongue that has never known pause;
still the hero goes on while his enemies
rave-remember the glories of Bryan the
brave!-Emporia Gazette.
