My public work is before me and

That is well spoken. IL proves that
Mr. Osborn has not been unduly in
ilated by his victory over his oppon-
ents and IL proves he does not feel
that the reins OF dictator have been
placed in his hands. but rather that
the party has chosen him as the tool
with which IL Is to carve out its des-
tiny for the next two years.
The two promises that Mr.. Osborn
has made. following his selection for
the leadership of the party, should
cement whatever differences have ex-
listed within the party during the pri-
maries. The discussion Is over the
people havf signified their choice, and
the forces Ahat supported the defeated
candidate must stand behind that
choice as firmly and fairly as they
would have expected Mr.. Osborn's
forces to stand behind them had they
been successful.
We predict that this course will be
followed. Mr. Osborn has already
shown n tendency which will encour-
age IL, and II his future words and
actions bear out those of the present,

Recent discussion Of the tremen-
dous loss resulting from the forest
fires Of this summer, has moved a
writer in The Chicago Evening Post
to some timely reflections on the fire
loss in cities. lie points out that,
barring any severe and widespread
connagration, the years fire recod
will show approximately 1900 persons
burned and 10000 buildings valued
at $2SO,OOO,OOO destroyed.
This, It may be assumed, is about a
normal fire loss for a year, no such
holocausts as the Baltimore or San
Francisco fires having been thus far
recorded for 1910. The writer i'm The
Evening Post assets that, while a por-
ton Of the fire loss is recouped by the
insurance companies, SO is paid out in
premiums for every dollar returned
as indemnity. Taking into considera-
ton the S3OOOOO,OOO annually expend-
ed for fire protection, he figures that
the country annually suffers a net
loss OF approximately s550.OOO.OO0
from fire.
Not all OF this can be considered
waste of course. The insurance is no
doubt greater than IL should be If
better precautions against fire were
.aken for the greater danger necessi-
tstes higher rates. But 1t is neces-
safy anyway TO safeguard against fire,
which causes a considerable expense.
watSr systems must be capable of
supplying fire pressure and fire de-
partma\pts must be maintained. A
good si\are OF the present losses in
cities could be prevented though by
more caret In construction. More at
tention to Immunity against fire. the
extension on the use of fire proof ma
teriais etc. would considerably re-
duce the FIRE i.osses OF the cities. and
now that the 1rinerence in cost be-
tween fire proof materials and the or
binary inflammaf,lc stun used is be-
coming less, as cheaper materials are
brought into ose while the supply Of
wood Is growing kfss plentiful, better

THE REPUBLICAN, PARTYS
CHOICE FOR GOVERNOR

With an overwhelming plurality
over his nearest opponent pointing
the way TO his election next Novem-
Der, Chase S. Osborn, nominee of the
republican party of the state of Mich
igan for the office of governor, has is
sued a public statement to the elect

hibited degree Of modesty and re-
straint which will raise him not only
in the estimation of those who voted
and worked for him, but of those who
voted and worked against him for the
nomination.

Maine went Democratic yesterday
for the first time in thirty years.
The result was big sur
prise to the leaders of both
the Democratic and Republican par
ties. both expecting that the Republi-
cans would win i'm the state as a whole
but by a small margin Norman T..
Mack, chairman of the national Demo-
cratic committee. says 1t means a
sweeping Democrat victory from coast
to coast" while Senator Elihu Root OF
New York declares 1t will have no
bearing on the national election two
years hence the outcome of yesterday
being the result of the period Of dis
content usually noticed in the middle
of every administration. He believes
the pendulum has swung back from
the Republican victory of two years
ago. and by two years more will have
swung back to the Republican ranks
again.
Let us hope that Mr. Root is right
and that Mr.. Mack is wrong. Mack's
statement uttered I'm a moment of en-
thusiasm and glee over the news from
Maine. is extravagant to say the least
as he will find out as time goes on.
The Republicans have nothing to fear
in the general situation, and Senator
Roots explanation of the party's
defeat in Maine will be accepted as one
of the real causes. Then, too. the Maine
election was fought out largely on
state issues i'm which the liquor ques-
ton played an important part. The
Democrats made their fight on the
re- submission to the people of the IL
quor issue. and this proved popular
among Democrats and Republicans
alike. In a national election I'm Maine
state issues will be lacking and the
result different.
