POLES, WIRES AND cRossARMs
Bent. Twisted and Damaged on All
 Lines Because of the Storm.

There was some improvement in the
 wire service Thursday as a result of the continued and strenuous effort made by an increased force of linemel
 to straighten out the tangle that re- suited from the ice storm. The men are laboring, however, with the worst tieup that they have been called upon to face in years. and it will be days before the service is raised to it's usual standard of efficiency. One wire south, to Norwich, and two north, to Put nam, were the only ones in working order out Of the local office Thursday up to the middle of the afternoon. ard upon them was the burden of the toll business. The local service is in fair ly good condition. The long distance, New York to Boston, air line of the American Telephone and Telegraph company that crosses the country as q bird flies, in a direct line over rivers ard through rights of way cut through the woods, is in a bad way Because of rough and wooded country through which the lines stretch for miles and miles, and its tnaccessibility at many points, it will probably take two weeks to replace broken poles, wires and crcssarms and remove entansling trees ana branches.

WARDEN DISSATISFIED.
States That Some Buildings Lack
 Proper Exits in Case of Fire.

Warden William Fl. Marland. in view of the recent Mexican theater disaster. is again impelled to call attention to some changes that he suggested be made to provide safe egress from local public places in case of an emergency. In some instances and in some re- spects the changes suggested by the warden have been made at different buildings, but he is still dissatisfied with the present exit arrangement of other buildings. Warden Marland states that he does not desire to stir up any i'll feeling by persistent insist ence on the changes suggested and which he is empowered to enforce if he so desires, but he believes that the precautions should be taken to pre- vent a possible repetition of the catas- trophies that have been visited on other places The warden says he has felt that his suggestions on the matter should have been sufficient to cause tre changes and he did not believe it would be necessary to force the issue. The statutes plainly state his authori- ty to compel changes of the nature he has suggested for tke better protection of the local public and cites several instances where changes should be ma de.

Out of oreer Now.

Says the New Haven Journal-Cour- fer: The members ct the New Haven delegation in the general assembly do well in dropping political differences and uniting in opposition to the im-, pertinent proposal to have a legisIa- tive commission investigate the recent purchase of land in this city by the board of hnaHce." This is what might be looked for and ought to be. Should it hereafter transpire that no local in- vestigation can settle the matter sat- isfactorily and justly in the eyes of the great public, then an appeal to the legislature might be in order. But such an appeal now is certainly out of or der by all the rules that should govern such things.-Bridgepor Standard.

attack from the rear. His frogship

Dry FARMING.

Cedar Falls Record: Every news
paper Office in the country is flooded
with elaborate articles picturing the
good features of dry farming and
booming the arid regions of the west
ern country. These articles are all
inspired by lot of land boosters and
they are both misleading and over
drawn. There are great irrigated
belts in the west that are wonderfully
productive, made so by the presence
of water taken to them by artificial
means, but there is no certainty that
any crops can be produced on land
where such conditions do not obtain.
OF course there is an occasional year
when good crops can be grown on land
not irrigated but these are the ex-
ception and SO few and far between
that no one wants to invest in land
that offers no other inducements.
Secretary Wilson is right in lifting his
voice against. the bogus claims made
by the boosters of dry farming. The
newspapers ought to cut out the
articles furnished because they are
sent out by land grafters who. have no
concern as to the welfore of the vic
Tins.

WASHINGTON Nov. 1.-The COM
mittee appointed by the National Geo
graphic Society to pass upon the
claims of Commander ePary, as call
er at the North pole, want the Peary
records and data and instruments, and
they want them right away. A per.
emptory order has been sent to the
the explorer to forward his records at
once, and members of the committee
expect them to arrive today. 1t is
possible that Commander Peary will
come with his data, as he guards 1t
with utmost care. This committee,
consisting of Henry Cannot, Admiral
C. M Chester and o. H. Tittman, was
appointed some time ago, and it was
announced that the records had been
placed in its hands by Commander
Peary. However, when Cannot and
Admiral Chester looked them over,
they found everything very incom-
plete. Instead of the "apple-pie" or
der for scientific accuracy always
claimed by Peary for his ardent
friends, the two members of the COM
mittee were not able to tell whether
the explorer had been further north
than Etah.
