POLITICIANS FIGHTING HARD.

LONDON, England, Nov. 3O.-The
politicians Of all parties are strain
ing every nerve to crowd into a few
days the work which, in ordinary
elections, is spread over weeks or
months. Nearly all the heavy guns
were in action Tuesday night.
Arthur j. Balfour, leader of the
opposition, before beginning a meet
ing in Albert Hall, where he warmly
supported the referendum, described
the Government as puppets, dancing
to the tune Of John Redmond and his
American paymasters."
The Prime Minister, Mr.. Asquith.
spoke at Reading, Chancellor Lloyd
George at Cardiff, John Z. Redmond.
leader Of the aNtionalists. at Dublin.
Winston Spencer Churchill at Col
chester, Augustus Birrell, chief of
Secretary for Ireland, at Bristol,
John Burns, President of the local
Government Board. at Battersea, and
Austin Chamberlain at Ashton.
The issues are narrowing daily.
The conservatives make much of the
menace Of home rule. They proclaim
that the plan Of the Liberals for the
reform OF the House of Lords, means
single chamber government and put
to the front their new policy of the
referendum.
There is great favor among the
Liberals. a feature being the sudden
reforming zeal on the part of the
Lords, who claim that Lansdowne's
referendum scheme is a snare be-
cause the parties would be unequallv
yoked together under it.

Eugene Hale. Of Maine, Republican
leader Of the Senate, by virtue of his

iority and has almost captured the
Senate. With the country apparent
ly behind them that party will. I have
no doubt. insist upon taking its nat

Careless Shooting.

A bullet crashed through win

opposite side of the room in a
house in the south part of town
about o'clock last Saturday after
noon. 1t came from northerly

sufficiently to be measured. 1t
proved to be bullet from a Al
