The cold wave reached us last
Friday. Saturday was the coolest
day in many years in Stafford and
we were treated to the biggest snow
storm in years Sunday night, the
snow covering the ground for sew
eral inches in depth. The oldest in
habitant of the Gila Valley fell to
wondering what caused the great
change from warm to cold and
wintry weather in such a short time,
and came to the conclusion that the
cold spell is the result of the editor
ial in George Crosby's Republican
newspaper advocating the election
of dyed-in-the-wool democrat, W.
w. Pace, as Arizona's first governor.

ity, that the republicans already
have their ticket named and their
fight outlined, and that there will
be little contest, except for senator.
This ticket, as yet, does not in
clude the man for governor. Cam
eron and Sloan are the two men
talked of for the governorship, and
if Cameron can be induced to set
aside the senatorial toga and accept
the governorship, Sloan will grace
fully apply for federal Judge"

Taft Again Eating Three Meals Daily

have all fallen into the practice of
going over to the Metropolitan club,
where they serve a fine luncheon, and
negotiating the entire bill of fare, from
SOUP to cigars. Secretary of State
Knox, who doesn't weigh much more
than three ham sandwiches, has gain
ed ten pounds already, and Attorney
General Wickersham, who was the
only member of the cabinet that re-
fused to adopt the simple life lunch
con, has the laugh on his associates
who did.
The president inaugurated his new
policy of taking three square meals a
day for two reasons. First, he found
that the cravings of the inner man
were not satisfied with two and half
meals, and, secondly, his system of ex-
ercse has kept his weight down and
he thinks he can safely return to the
old way of working off three square
meals.
The president discovered some time
ago that he could safely take care OF
three full meals by continuing his
daily golf and horseback riding. Since
Decoration day he has not missed a
midday meal.
The Colorado statesman., 1909-06-26

MO decision ever reached by the cabi-
IN net of president created greater
excitement than this pronunciamento
issued by President Taft few days
ago:
THE president wants the cook to
stop sending up to him every day at
one O'Clock a red apple and shred
ded wheat biscuit for his luncheon. He
wants substituted for it a meal worthy
of a grown up man. There must in
future be cup of soup, bit of roast
or fish, a vegetable or two, season
able desert or fruit, and a glass of
iced tea or buttermilk."
The members of Mr.. Taft's cabinet
who have been conforming to the
Simple lunch habit set by their boss
manifested their exultation by a
chorus of joyful Thanksgiving. They

famous blunder by DR.. Burchard in
the campaign of 1881 is a story re-
vived in Washington by the news of
the death in Brooklyn the other day of
Andrew Devine, long reporter of the

a friend of Blaine and was assigned
by the Associated Press to travel with
him in the campaign. He supervised
Blaine's speeches and would furnish
local data and make suggestion for
replies to addresses of welcome.
On the morning the delegation

National Museum Nearing Completion

The chambers are large and Sc
verely plain, as the plans do not pro-
vide for an elaborate decorative
scheme
1t will be the largest and most COM
plete building in the world devoted
solely to museum purposes. The
British museum consists of two build
ings, but the greater portion of its
space is devoted to the library. The
National museum is devoted principal
ly to the natural history and Indian
history of the United States. 1t also
contains exhibits illustrative of the
various surveys from the early In
dian trails down to the geological sur
vey Uf the present time and the ma
terial results of those surveys.
The new building will be used al
most entirely for the exhibits relating
to natural arts and industry. The
other exhibits will remain in the pres
ent building and with the Smithsonian
institution.
The site is at Tenth and B streets
AMI in the park system known as THE
MAJ. That site was selected in ac.
cordance with the Burnham plan for
tho Identification of Washington
which contemplates the acquisition by
the government of all of that section
Of the city between the capitol and
White House grounds and between
Pennsylvania avenue and the Potomac

NTASHINGTON.-T National muse
w um, which is being constructed at
cost of $9.500,O00, will be completed
within the next six months. 1t will
be occupied by both the National
museum and the Smithsonian institu
ton.
The present museum building is so
crowded that many of the most inter-
esting collections that have been ac-
quired by the government in recent
years cannot be exhibited.
Work on the new museum was start
ed about three years ago. The plans
were prepared by firm of well-known
Washington architects.
Mr.. Marshall and w. H. Holmes, the
curator of the museum, spent months
in inspecting the celebrated museums
OF Europe with view to profiting by
the advantages of the foreign museum
buildings and avoiding the mistakes
of their construction.
The building is of white granite,
with a massive dome, somewhat SINH
lar to that of the Congressional IL
brary.

Famous Blunder of Blaine Recalled

Blaine's reply to it and realized that
Blaine had made fatal error. Upon
arrival at the hotel Devine sought
Blaine and asked him about the
speech, showing him the newspaper
account
Il don't know thing about it,
said Blaine. did Burchard say that?"
Blaine told Devine how he had gone
out on the landing of the stairway to
see the delegation of ministers, head
ed by DR.. Burchard. DR.. Burchard,
so Blaine said, read his speech in a
sing-song voice, and Blaine, who was
thinking of what he should say in
reply, did not pay particular attention
to it.
Blaine said also that he had been
so admirably looked after up to that
time by Devine that it never occurred
to him that he was likely to make a
fatal error in agreeing to what DR..
Burchard had to say, and he had not
heard the fatal expression of DR..
Burchard until Devine called his at
tention to it in the newspapers.
"Of course, Mr.. Devine," Blaine
said, I'VE know what l would have
said had that been called to my at
tention."
Blain's's friends here say he always
attributed his defeat more to DR..
Burchard than to any other cause.

In other words. President Taft for
mally signed the new naval regllla-
tion which forbids midshipmen to
marry within the six years of their
cadet course. Heretofore the "mid-
dies" were kept away from matrimcny
during their four years at Annapolis
The two years sea service which
fellows the academic course was the
undoing of many of the "middies" and
many became married men before
they had learned to use a safety razor.
The new regulation came up during
the Roosevelt administration. The

to President Taft. He was game and

MARKET DAYS.

Monday, April 26, will be market
day on which prizes will be given to
farmers bringing in the best produce.
The fourth Monday of each month there
after until the beginning of next winter
will be prize market day. At recent
meeting of the Wausau Merchants as
sociation, Nj. H. Duncan. VIM Schoene-
berg and Orin Liljeqvist were appointed
a committee to arrange for each market
day. Ten prizes will be given on the
fourth Monday of each month, the
prizes to consist of merchandise given
by members of the merchants organic
alton, the donors to be selected in
alphabetical order. 1t is likely that
steps will be taken later to have an
auctioneer on the ground to sell the
produce of those who desire to make a
sale in that way. This plan worked
very successfully last fall and induced
many farmers to come to town with
their surplus produce. Ii was bene-
fetal To them and also 10 the city
buyers. La summer months market
days will be instrumental in taking
vegetables, chickens, eggs, etc. from
the farmer and place them in the hands
of the city consumer. In this way the
farmer gets cash fer his produce instead
of store pay"
The second Monday of each month is
also market day, but no prizes Will be
given.

WHO OWNS OUR STReETS2

LII the right to tear up our macadam
or paved streets, without the consent of
our city government, has been given to
any corporation great mistake has
been made and it cannot be recti-
fed any too soon. Last week the Street
Railway Co, by order of manager Ew-
ing, without considering anybody,
commenced to again tear up Grand
avenue to lay switch along the block
opposite Lund's hot houses. This
would necessitate the tearing up of a
considerable piece of the avenue
Mayor Lamont was appealed to by citi-
zens who at once put a stop to the work
until the city's rights could be ascer-
tanned in the matter
On Thursday night the city council
met and at that time the mayor submit
ted the following timely communica-
ton
Your attention is called to the claim
made by the officers of the Wausau
Street Railway company of their right
to install side-tracks and switches at
any point along their line without the
consent of the proper city officers.
Without discussing the details of the
proposition, | desire to question the ad-
visibility of allowing any person or cor
poration the right to disturb the paved
or other sS.eets of the city without the
consent of This council or the board of
public works and | believe further that
when permit is granted the work
should proceed under the direct super
vision of the city engineer or the board
of public works"
An ordinance was passed in accord
ance with the mayors recommendation
which will, we understand, prohibit the
construction of track or switch, on
any of our streets without first gaining
the consent of the city and the work
supervised by city authorities. If this
does not give the city the control of its
own streets, then steps should be taken
to secure absolute control, otherwise
the whim of any one man may keep our

streets constantly torn up, and in a
deplorable STATE to the great annoyance
and expense of our people.
The Pilot is of the opinion that the
ordinance should also apply to the
Wausau Gas Co. Does that company
care rap whether our streets are pass
able or not? 1t doesn't seem so. Can
our citizens recall of single instance
where that company has, after laying or
repairing gas mains on any of our
macadam streets, placed those streets
in as good condition as they were before
Has it sifted the rock and placed it in
layers as before and had it properly
packed by the steam roller? Not on
your life Nor will it ever do so unless
compelled to, and the work brought
under the supervision of the city author
lties
The ordinance should also include
the plumbers and layers of sewer pipe.
When our citizens pay out their money
for building good streets, it is shame
to have them torn up within perhaps
twenty-four hours after completion and
left in worse condition than ever be-
fore. All that any of them do is to
shovel back enough dirt to fill up the
excavation and perhaps heap it up to
about foot above the level of the street
reasoning that heavy traffic will bring
the street to its original condition. III
these despOilers of our streets think
these humps are particular mark of
beauty, they are mistaken. Wherever
our macadam streets are torn up they
should be again laid as originally, with
sifted rock, rolled down by the steam
roller under the supervision of our city
authorities and the cost charged to the
proper persons. This has never been
done to anyone's knowledge.
Further, Third, Washington, and
Scott streets will be re-payed in the
near future If such thing is possible
the Street Railroad Co., Gas Co, plumb
ers and layers of sewer pipes, should
be given notice and plenty of time to

EXPECT HIGH WATER.

Fearing high water and the expert
enees of several past years, the c. NJ 4
p. s. Ry. 90. has men stationed day
and night patroning the track in the
vicinity of Granite Heights. The east
bank of the river IS low at this point,
and usually when the ice breaks up it
jams and causes the river To overflow
its banks. For several years the rail-
road company suffered the destruction
of portions of its track and the tying up
of traffic for several days. The company
has y survey made for stretch of track
east of the regular line of travel, to be
used In emergency eases. No effort
has been made 10 build the track be-
cause of a hitch between the company
and the owner of some land which it
desires 10 cross. The company tried 10
purchase right of way across one
corner of forty, but the owner exacted
fabulous price and so the matter rests
as il was before.
