ity of the bond issue Three bids
We're offered, all from Chicago par
ties. The issue for 1900, 20 year
bonds with ten-ycar option, to car
ny rate of five and half per cent.
c. II. Coffin offered a premium of
1927, Coffin and Crawford a premium
of $1S9 and Cutter, May & Company
a premium of $1tS, return of accrued
interest, and they to bear the ex-
pense of printing, etc, making their
offer something like $3.50 and this
firm was awarded the bonds. The
money will be paid over TO the city
about the first OF April and work on
the sewerage system will probably
be under way by May. 1t is thought
that the system can be put in for
about $1,000 or $4,000, leaving $4,000
or $4,000 to be applied on macademiz-
ing streets. When this sanitary sewer
age system Is installed, and additional
amount mentioned, applied to streets,
Hartford will be the most attractive
city in the Gren River Valley from
every point Of conception and we may
expect large increase In our popu-
lation, as this city will be a most
healthful location, and will be pro
vided with all the modern utilhaes
which can be had In a first-clase
city.

SPEAKER CANNON
SHORN OF POWER
Removed as Chairman of
Rules Committee.
A REVOLUTION IN CONGRESS
InSurgent Republicans Join
With Democrats to Ac-
c0mpliSh Purpose.

Washington. March 19.-His chief
asset and greatest weapon taken
from him by the allied vote of insur-
gent Republicans and Democrats.
Joseph Guerney Cannon tonight is
still speaker Of the House Of Repre-
sentatives. but no longer chairman Of
the rules committee or even a men,
Der of 1t.
BY a vote of 191 to 1856, the in
surgents voting with the Democrats.
the house adopted the resolution OF
Representative Norris, of Nebraska.
requiring the enlargement Of the
rules committee from five to ten and
eliminating the speaker from mem
bership, all members to be elected
by the house, and not appointed by
the speaker.
Curiously, by identically the same
vote, but with a decidedly different
personnel, the house defeated the
resolution of Representative Burle-
son, of Texas, declaring the speaker
ship vacant and ordering an imme-
diate election of a successor to Can
non.
Amid scenes of the widest disorS
der, the house thus ended late this
afternoon the fight on "Cannonism,"
which for the past three days has
been waged with fury unprecedented
in the houses history.
But while Cannon lost his chief
power, his defiant statement that the
Republicans would vote to elect a
Democratic speaker in his stead,
brought the insurgents TO their
senses and the party fold, causing
the defeat Of the Burleson resolu-
ton and the probable election Of
Champ Clark as speaker.
When Cannon left the chair and
expressed a readiness to be superced-
ed by a new speaker, there was
tremendous demonstration.
Sherley, of Kentucky. rushed TO
the side of Underwood, of Alabama.
for a conference, then hurrying TO
the front of the speakers desk.
shouted a motion to adjourn.
The Republicans yelled, "Oh! no."
and chairman Tawney, who had taxi
en- the chair, recognized Burleson.
Utterly exhausted from the tense
fight, the party leaders tonight are
unable to foresee further action.
Early next week the Republicans
will hold caucus to choose six MEM
bers of the new rules committee,
and the Democrats will caucus for
its four members.
By the provisions Of the Norris
resolution, the present rules COM
mittee ceases to exist in ten days.

Success.
By A. H. Ballard.

it has been said, and this may not be
the best way to say it, but it seems
to me that success is very largely
misunderstood in this world. What
is meant, ordinarily, by the word sue
cess is the possession OF money or
power, or some conspicuous exhibit
ton of individual progress-progress
viewed externally-the outward APP
pearance especially. When, in real
ity, the only abiding success we can
have is a condition within us, is diff
ferent in every human being, and
simply means our receptivity to i'm
pressions that come from our sur
roundings
Since | have lived again, after
years, in the country, | see clearly
now that my success consists IN my
capacity to appreciate the green, cool
fields, to drink JOY from blossoms, to
comprehend Gods power and bench
cence from the contemplation OF His
glorious woods and streams and toll
iage to glow at the myriad tints OF
natures palette, to be amazed at the
marvels of growing things, to teel the
overwhelming comfort of knowing
that there is no use of fretting about
anything-ths, this is successful
The intricate and amazing miracles
of Natures handiwork | mention as
paramount to all other impressions
and constituting the chief factor in
persons resultant mental state; for
what in comparison, can be the mag
nitude. the importance, the interest,
of any single human act or collection
of acts that one may struggle
through in the course of a day,
month. a year? Contemplating the
record of day, feeling the impact OF
remembrance of things that have
come near to one in the recent hours,
what troubles? what worries? what
causes regret? what gives sense OF
guilt? and what soOthes with sense
of work we'll done? The answer to
these questions spells success, happl-
ness, or the opposite. Have you per
formed a kind act? have you SAID
something that cheered co-worker!
have you shown appreciation OF effort
done in your behalf? have you patted
someone on the back? have you
guided your decisions in business on
the principles for which you are
fighting? or have you fallen down III
the face of temptation?
AS one can look over his daily ac-
tivity and answer these questions, he;
or she. will have peace and JOY and
contentment, or heart aches and tur-
moil of soul. 1t is the state of mind
in which your work leaves you that
counts. What is far more, you can
set it down as fact to rely upon tor
ever that this is about the only mat,
ter that does count, and that you will
realize it more and more as time goes
on and you grow older and gain
clearer understanding of life's laws.

THE CHEERFUL MAN.

| met a cheerful man today,
And stopped to chat with him awhile.
why is it you are always gay,
Why is it that you always smile?'
| asked him, Have you never known
A disappointment, or woe,
And has no plan been overthrown
That you had hoped would be a gO?'
Sure thing" he said, I've had my
woes.
I've had two fortunes wiped away,
But I've no time to think of those
Affairs which happened yesterday.
I've had my plans go wrong, and
Have pressed my lips to sorrows cup.
But when I'm down l never cry;
l spend my time in getting up
you see. the way l work is this:
If 1 get licked today, all right,
And if my plans should go amiss,
I won't forget that 1 can fight,
Nor will 1 sit around and sob,
But III be up at break of day,
Out hustling for another job
And try to win some other way.
That's why you see me smiling now;
I may get knocked down now and then,
But you can wager, anyhow,
That l will soon jump up again;
There is no easy road to fame,
To win success is quite a chore;
Why, half the big men l can name
Have failed a dozen times or more"
