Mayor Gaynor of New York city was the guest of honor at banquet of the Syracuse Chamber of Commerce last Saturday night, and gave very inter- esting talk on the government of the country, states and cities, touching on many matters of political and con- mercial importance.
 The mayor said that voters should cast their ballots i'll national elections for national issues, but that ill state affairs they should drop national lines and vote for what they consider the interest of the state, while in city elections national and state issues should both be eliminated and electors should freely cross party lines to put in the men best fitted for the offices. Sticking to party lines in such elections, he said "makes mere political machines, which live on official loot and patronage, in- stead of political ideas and progress"
 MT. Gaynor also gave his views on high prices. On this point he asserted 1Ildb 4uCIcooSu SOAu pIOuuCGlOu WdS buS main cause, and that artificial prices by monopolies was 8 contributing factor. He made the following distinction be- tween monopoly and large and success ful enterprises conducted along strict lines of business:

The absolute disregard some men with sporting blood" as they call it, have for their lives, was we'll shown in Day tona, Fla, one day last week, by Barney Oldfield, who drove an auto one mile in 27 33-100 seconds. That is an average speed of 131.72 miles all hour. No mat ter how much care is taken in the mak- ing of piece of machinery, there is al- ways liability of breakage, so it is safe to say that Oldfield's life was in danger every second Of his ride. We wonder if the anti-suicide law would be applicable in such case. Probably not, as every one knows that auto records are made only to be broken, and how can they be broken unles somebody is willing to risk breaking their neck in the attempt.

GOING TO THE 8oW-WoWs

In lecture which he delivered few days ago. Chancellor Day. of Syracuse University took very pessimistic view of the way the laws of the country are being made, claiming that the President now informs Congress as to the meas sures which he wishes to have it pass and warning it of such acts as he will not accept; i'll fact, as the Chancellor views it, the country is run by one man, instead of by the people. He may be right in his statements, but in view of the way Congress has been behaving itself this winter, it would seem as if it ought to have some one with sense to tell it what to do. It certainly acts as if it needed conservator.

hundred and thirty-fifth anniversary
of the Battle Of Lexington. 1t was
an irregular sklrmish, something like

is not lost, and developments may
come today.
The scenes In convention hall
while the daughters battled were
dramatic to degree. The fight was
over what might have been regarded
as an Insignificant matter, the dis
charge OF Miss Agnes Gerald, a
clerk, by Mrs. Scott. Miss Wilcox
had posed as the defender of the de-
posed clerk, and the factions rallied
either to the support of Mrs. Scott

dates more in sympathy with the

Their designations were accepted, to

that the paper did not reach her in

Mrs. Belmont the glory of originating
the suffragist settlement work idea.
And Mrs. Avery and Mrs. Upton side
