placing the poison inside the rooms,

FIRE RECORD
Of THIS CITY
Chief Faulkner Gives The Sentinel a
List of Fires for the Past Year,
Showing That North End
Needs Better Facilities.
MANY FIRES IN THAT DISTRICT

The fire Saturday night at
1907 North Seventh street, which
resulted in a total loss, demon
strates the fact that the people
who live in the north end of
town, as has been stated by The
Sentinel several times, are al
most completely without ade-
quate fire protection. The only
large fires in the past year, three
in number, having occurred III
that neighborhood, have beer
total losses.
The alarms and fires which have
come during the life of the present
fire department, under Chief Faulk-
ner, are as follows:
April 23, 1909, 521 Main.
April rs, 1850 North Seventh.

Total loss.
From the above it may be seen that
27 fires were in the north part OF
the city and 1 5 were in the south part
of the city while three were on Main
street. Therefore, for two-thirds OF
the fires the department is compelled
to run up hill and in a large number
of cases almost a mile. Three total
losses suffered simply because the de-
partment could not arrive in time
should suffice to prove that a second
department is needed in the north
end of the city. The cost of the main
tenance would be more than repaid
by the difference which the presence
of fire station would make in the
insurance rates

The farmer Of today buys a much
larger proportion Of the food that goes
on the table than he did ten years ago.
rs a good thing that this is so because
he has a great variety to select from.
He should, however, use great care

health and strength.
The widespread tendency in the city
to increase the amount OF Quaker Oats
eaten Is due very largely to the recent
demonstrations by scientific men that
the Quaker Oats fed man is the man

careful thought and should increase
the quantity Of Quaker Oats eaten BY
themselves, their children and the

Preliminary Report Presented
to Congress Today
Outlines Policy.
WATER POWER SITUATION
Declare Against the Sitting. of
Water Transportation by Rail-
roads Through Reduced Rates and
the Purchase of Competing Water
Routes.
UNITED PRESS LEASED WIRE. ]

Washington, Yam. 24.-The first
definite outlining of the government
policy to be followed in the improve
ment of the rivers and harbors of
the United States was indicated to-
day when the National Waterways
Commission, created March of last
year, presented its preliminary re-
port to congress. With the report
is a discussion of the policy the COM
mission recommends for dealing with
the water power situation, and it is
understood to express the latest
views of the administration on this
mooted question, position some
what different from that taken by
President Taft in his conservation
message. A severe denunciation of
the sitting of water transportation
by railroads through reduced rates
and the purchase of competing water
routes is made by the commission.
To the pleat that the Improvement of
waterways reduces rates by rail.
even if the waterways are not used,
the commission says:
The commission, while fully rec
ogniZing this fact, cannot endorse it
as a desirable policy. 1t rests in the
first place upon the transparent fall
lacy JldJ Jue IdllIOduS Constitute an
entrenched and uncomfortable mo-
nOpoly, which cannot be reached by
legislation of other orderly and legal
methods"
AS a remedy for this condition, the
commission recommends that when a
railroad rate is once reduced to meet
water competition, it cannot be raised
until, after a hearing by the Inter
state Commerce Commission, it
should be found that the proposed
new rate rests on changed conditions,
other than the elimination of water
competition.
The proposition to give the Inter
state Commerce Commission the pow
er to fix minimum rates below which
the railroad cannot go was con-
demned by the commission, but the
majority of the commission recon-
