In some respects this same Bryan

ne has suffered three defeats as a
presidential candidate. There is no

Aside from his strength with his

been pretty thoroughly exploited. In
spite of his political unwisdom and
record of misfortune in political life,
he is today a power in Democratic
councils and a wholesale stimulus to
his political foes both within and out

enough before the people to be al
ways a menace to the success of a re

of l.. P. Terhune, the inspector who
mad a general inspection of Roswell

ing Roswell a new rate for insurance.
Mr.. Canada left last night for Artesia,
and before leaving said:
Il found the wiring conditions much
better in Roswell than they were one
year ago, when | was here last. My
principal criticism will be that in gen
eral more space is needed between
the primary and secondary wires.
These are the company wires in the
streets and alleys. The inside wiring
conditions show marked improve
nent."
In answer to the question as to
whether Roswell will get a better rate
| on account of its new water system,
he said that although rating was not
his work, he was sure the new con
ditions in town. including improved
| water service, improved fire depart
ment and improved wiring, would
| give the town a much better rate
The rate will be lowered only in the
business district, though" he said
| for such things do not affect the rate

Continuing to speak along this line
Mr.. Canada said: The new rate
YOU understand, will be a new base
upon which to figure the insurance OF
the different buildings. With all con
ditions perfect, his rate will apply tC
every building. But a bad wall, a bad
chimney, bad wiring, or any of these
things will add To the rate of eacf
building where such condition may
be found. The basic rate will be SCI
