UNCLE JOE CANNON
APOSTLE OF TODAY
Wants City Planning, But
Insists Plans Be Car
ried Out Now.

''Uncle joe Cannon is the apostle Of
today as opposed to next week OF the
year after next. He believes in doing
things for the present generation and
with letting theories as TO how pos
terity Will live and have fits being be
settled by posterity. But he favors city
planning, planning for now, for the
people who are living in the cities. He
told the delegates to the city planning
conference last evening at the Raleigh
Hotel that he heartily approved of their
efforts if they would get to work and
90 something.
These things and his views on wide
variety Of other subjects he confded to
the diners whose principal speaker and
entertainer he was on a program that
included addresses by Commissioner
Mcfarland, Mrs. vladimir G. Sink
hovitz. Of New York; Henry Morgen-
THAI. OF New York: benjamin c.
Marsh, of New York: Mayor James z.
Reyburn, OF Philadelphia, and Allen D.
Albert, jr.
The dinner was served in the large
banquet hall, the walls Of which were
covered with plats, maps. and pictures
showing how cities should and should
not oe. Europe contributed several hun
dred specimens to the collection. and
the plans of the park commission &C
cupied a prominent place.
Mr.. Cannon was on the program to
talk on legislation and it's relation TO
city planning. He warned the theorists
10 be careful and declared the country
had a recent example CT theorists and
their work in the report Of the commits
sion 10 uplift the farmers. The work
OF this combine is All rot he declared,
IF the samples of the literature IT has
sent out which has fallen into my hands
ear be taken as real specimens of the
work The gentlemen who composed
the commission were very learned men,
but they didn't know a thing about the
farmer or his needs, he said.
The Speaker paid a tribute to Tam
many Hall by saving that he believed If
he lived in New York he would belong
10 the organization. He said he cOuldni {
be elected constable il he didn't.
The members OF the conference have
met with so much encouragement that
they have planned to hold an annual
meeting.
The exhibit at the Raleigh viii be
open until next Saturday and BENJAMIN
c. Marsh will be on aand at all times to
explain the drawings and tell something
OF the work that has been done in New
York He has been engaged to make
several addresses on city planning dur
ing the course of the next week or ten
days.

CANDIDATES LINE UP THEIR FORCES TO CLOSE THE CAMPAIGN
Get the Votes.

The contest editor has done his
part to make clear the conditions
under which the votes must be reg
istered to the end that they may be
counted. 1t is all plain enough sail
ing and he just wants to utter
few words of caution to the contes-
tants. OF course there is not much
use of advising anybody against the
practice of holding out votes and
trying to deceive competitors by a
show of Indifference. This is mat
ter for the contestant to decide for
herself The essential thing is to
get the votes into the Office and if
there are votes being held out now
and one who has been watching
the contest would be justified in
assuming that there are-why they
had better be in this Office in time.
The contest will close on the
stroke of IL o'clock, standard time,
Saturday night. Votes handed over
The Capital Journal counter at
11:01 will get nothing but a tired
smile from a tired clerk. Votes
that are mailed a minutes too late
will be of no avail.
If the contestants will keep this in
mind The Capital Journal does not
care if the votes do not come in un-
til 1859 Saturday night. But if
the contest editor was a candidate
instead of mere looker-on he
would not take a chance on getting
his vote in at that time. There IS
nothing like having a little leeway
He would not wait until the last
moment before closing his list He
would cut off a few hours at the
finish and give himself that much
time in case of accidents Trains so
wrong; crowds sometimes hustle a
man so that he cannot go through.
There was a fearful ballad once en-
titled "The Pardon That Came Too
Late" Well, votes that some in too
late or are mailed too late will be
of just exactly as much avail as the
pardon was to the fellow who was
hanged.
The Capital Journal will make

This is written merely as mat
ter of caution, and it is of the ut
most Importance that aII candidates,
and others interested, especially
those candidates outside of the city,
read and weigh every line of it. We
would dislike to see any candidate
lose any votes because of the excite
ment that is sure to come during the
last days of the contest or because
of any misunderstanding on their
part. IL is impossible for you to eX-
ercise too much care in arriving at
a full understanding OF the rules
and conditions governing the clos
ing of the contest.
First-AH votes and remittances
mailed after Thursday night should
bear special delivery stamp.
Second-If you live outside of the
city and intend to mail your votes,
take the precautiOn to find out eN-
actIy the time your pOstofIice closes,
and also in regard to train service
on which your votes will be carried.
Third-All remittances and votes
should be addressed to the "COntest
Manager" and not to any individual.
This is to prevent confusion.
FOurth-Be sure that your name
is on all ballots before sending TO
this office. This is very important.
Fifth--AlI votes or remittances
must be mailed before IL O'clOcN
Saturday night, December 1S, in or
der to count in the contest.
Look over the above conditions
carefully. Do not make up your
mind that YOU understand any par
ticular one, until you are absolutely
sure of its full meaning. If the pre-
caution of careful reading is adhered
to closely, there should be no vain
regrets concerning rejected votes not

Seeks Raise for Uncle Sans Clerks

Unless these men and women are
granted substantial increases in salary
Immediately, Mr.. Marsh holds, the
plans for the betterment of Washing
ton may as well be dropped.
He points out that many men who
are married and have families are
compelled to work along for from $500
to $500 year. This means, he says,
that many men of more than average
intelligence and ability, caught fast in
the rut of government and municipal
service and unable or afraid to seek
more remunerative employment, are
making a vain endeavor to maintain
life and support their families in COM
fort and respectability.
AS a result, he says, Washington Is
facing housing famine. because the
working people cannot find homes in
which they can afford to live. He ad-
vocates Immediate action looking to q
general advance in salary for the un.
derpaid clerks. When their case has
been attended to, he says. SO that
they have been made self-supportine
and self-respecting class, other efforts
to beautify and improve the city will
be more easy of attainment.
