Offering the resignation, declaring
that it must be accepted and upon
the motion of Mr.. Porter it was ac-

The climax in the dramatic scene
came when Councilman Porter called
Mr.. Morris a foreigner" and declared
that foreigners could never be civil
LIED" Throughout the meeting Mr..
Porter had opposed several PROPOSE
tions. and when Mr. Norris recon-
mended that certain sewer work be
done in Asylum street, Councilman
Porter interjected the remarks that
Mr.. Morris would vote for anything
without first considering the cost TO
the town" This brought forth a re-
ply from Mr. Morris, in which the
word civilized was used and then Mr..
Porter made the declaration that "a
foreigner could never be civilized Mr..

News Of the Week From Vari-
Gus Parts of the State.
WILL UTILIZE GAS FOR FUEL.
People Of Westhope Soon Will
Get Natural Product.

The Great Northern Oil. Gas and
Pipe Line company, which for months
has been drilling for oil in the vicin-
ity of Westhope, is laying pipes for
gas in the streets of Westhope.
The company is piping the gas from
a we'll nine miles south of town, on
the Parker farm, which has a flow of
100000 cubic feet daily.
The gas is remarkably dry and
clean and the pressure is high at the
we'll, so high that the gas can be
forced into town and through the
mains.
The gas is to be brought in through
a four and one-quarter inch iron pipe,
and distributed ove the city by means
of the "belt system" BY this arrange
ment there arc no dead ends, but a
continuous flow OF gas through every
main. The price will be so low that
the gas will be used for both fuel and
n in town.
There are other gas wells in that
territory and the Great Northern Oil,
Gas and Pipe Line company has a re-
serve of five other wells and in addi-
ton has not by any means given up
the quest fer oil. The gas has been
used for nearly two years by certain
farmers for both lighting and heating
and has proved a splendid fuel.
The fact of having an unlimited sup
ply of cheap gas at hand will be of
great economic value in a land where
kerosene sells for 20 cents a gallon,
anthracite coal for s12 a ton and BIZ
luminous for SIS. The pipes have been
laid from the we'll to the city and most
of the street mains have already been
put down.
The price Of the gas for domestic
nse will be 40 cents a thousand cubic
feet.

which occurred a few minutes later.
Without warning the airship exploded
with a loud report. At the time she
was sailing at an altitude of more
than 800 feet. The wrecked envelope

Enemy.

Madrid, Sept. 27.-The war office
announces the complete success of
the maneuvers in Morocco against the
Moors. Both Nador and Zeluan have
been occupied. At the latter town
there was bloody fighting with large
bodies of Moors. The ring around
Mount Guruga is now considered al

peared before General Marina, the

asked terms of surrender for the
tribes ertrenched on Mount Guruga.
The results of this conference are not
known, but it is believed the Moors
are ready to submit without consid-
GRAFTON of conditions.
