WON I ASK FOR

THE PROPERTY, OWNERS HAVE
CHANGED PLAN OF FIGHTING
WATERING TROUGH.

The property owners on jefferson
street that served notice on Clerk
,Carskadon. acting mayor through
their counsel, Attorney Howard n. Og-
den, yesterday that they would apply
to Hon. John W. Mason. Judge OF the
Circuit Court of Marion county for
restraining order to prohibit the OIL
GERS OF the City of Fairmont and the
officers Of the local humane society
from placing q public fountain and
watering trough on jefferson street,
have abandoned the idea Of obtaining
the restraining order from the Circuit
Court and will endeavor TO settle tho
matter satisfactory TO all parties con.
Scerned at the next regular meeting OF
the city council. Ever since the HUI
name Society purchased the watering
trough there has been n great deal OF
opposition TO having 1t located in any
part OF the city. Several locations
were decided upon, but these had to
be abandoned on account OF the stren-
uous objections raised by the citizens.
It is thought that several of the city
councllmen are lending their influ-
enee to have the trough placed at the
Jefferson street location on account of
Mr.. U. A. Clayton's active part taken
In the campaign against saloons in
the recent city elections. The matter
will be thoroughly gone over In coun-
ell and in all probability be settled.

BALLINGER IS
SLATED TO CO
SEPTEMBER is is DATE SET FOR
RETIREMENT OF SEcRE-
TARY OF INTERIOR.

BEVERLY. Mass. Aug. 13.-Cer-
tain events yesterday following Incl
dents of the past week or so lead in
evitabiy TO the conclusion that COM
plete political rcadjustment in circles
close TO President Taft is In progress.
Senator Nelson w. Aldrich, of
Rhode island, called TO see the Presi-
dent early before the chief executive
had finished his morning meal. He
found that Mr.. Taft had not had an
opportunity to read the Senator's re.
ply to Senator Bristow's charges re-
garding the rubber tariff. The Presi'
dent was gratified, however, that Sen
ator Aldrich had consented TO make
statement.
Although he is not to retire until
March 4. 1911. and Senator Aldrich
confirmed to President Taft his in
tention TO do so, the REIMBURSEMENT
plans which plainly are in progress
apparently treat whatever influence
Mr.. Aldrich may have had with the
President as a thing OF the past.
The elimination of Mr.. Aldrich, ac-
cording 10 close political observers. is
soon to be followed by the retirement
of Secretary Richard Ballinger, of the
Cabinet. The Republican party is fac
Ing one OF the most crucial campaigns
In It's history this fall, and the leaders
who have been coming more and more
into influence with the president are
arriving daily TO do all they can to
bring about an adjustment of the diff
ferences within the party.
8allinqer Loses Fortune.
Mr.. Ballinger practically has lost all
Of his personal fortune in defending
himself from the attacks that have
been made upon him. 1t is said that
one attorney fee alone in the Congress
sional investigation cost him $4,000.
II the Secretary is to recover these
losses, It is said. he must soon resume
the lucrative practice of law.
The retirement OF Mr.. Ballinger Is
said to be directed against Speaker
Cannon. 1t is not admitted In Bever.
ly that Mr.. Cannon will even be n can.
didate for the speakership. The Can.
non situation, rs thing OF the future,
is n little difficult TO handle. Once 1t
is known that the President would like
TO see a change. however, 1t is be.
lleyed that all doubt as to the result
would be removed. That Beverly is
being made the headquarters OF the
movement to set the Republican house
1 in order Is now generally admitted.

The various moves are being made
quiely, but effectively.

iHc various uloNcs hic btluB Hlhue
quiely, but effectively,
Reports have reached Beverly that
the recent results in Kansas and Iowa
were due largely to the activity Of
Speaker Cannon in Kansas to the
charges against Senator Aldrich and
doubt In the West as TO whether he
actually intended to retire.
Senator Aldrich also told Mr.. Taft
OF his plan to make speech during
the fall in one OF the Western States,
defending the Payne-Aldrlch act as q
whole. and particularly replying to the
charges made in reference to the cot
ton schedule.
Senator W., Murray Crane. of Mas.

forces in the new political movement.
II was he who went West to see Sec
retary Dallnger, and 1t was also he
