ments suggested. Mr.. Ernst, who
is landscape gardener. said that
without thorough examination
of the condition of things it would
be impracticable to recommend
any specific plan for improve
ments, but he made some very
pertinent suggestions. among
them taking down all signs which
extend across the sidewalk, the
removal of hitching posts from
the streets, removal of sheet iron
and other ."shacks" from the busi-
ness streets. restricting heavy
traffic to certain streets which
should be prepared for it.
During his remarks. Mr.. Vim

of cement sidewalks throughout
the town and was loudly ap-
plauded for the sentiment. Mr..
Vincent introduced motion
which was carried. that the meet
ing resolve itself into a civic i'm.

ecutive board consisting of three
women and three men be chosen,

1t is war of principles. 1t is
not mere quarrel of factions.
Mr.. Aldrich and Mr.. Dolliver are
not going to lock arms and be
reconciled, nor Mr.. Cannon and
Mr.. Norris, however much they
may respect and admire one
another personally. For theirs is
not personal difference. 1t is
the people against obstructionists.
If these insurgents were to sur
render, others would take their
places. and two would come to
every one that stands up to be
counted. And they will win or
the party will lose power.
The future of the Republican
party belongs to the faction now
called insurgents because they
represent the convictions and the
conscience of the people.
If. therefore, the President de-
cides or comes by indecision to
stand or fall with party regular
ity," he will fall. For party con
troll is about to be shifted. And.
however blameless he may be for
what Congress fails 10 do. the
punishment will fall on him.
This is one OF the penalties of

A Civic Improvement League

Pursuant to a call made by the
Commercial Association an en-
thusiastic meeting was held at the
Christian church last Friday even
ing. Rev. Stout called the meet
ing to order and acted as chair
man. No special program had
been arranged and the chairman
depended upon the extemPor-
aneous talks of speakers called on
without preparation. SO the talks
were decidedly informal and
therefore more entertaining and
effective perhaps than if set
speeches had been made. The
chairman in his usual happy style
outlined the object of the meet
ing and then began calling on
persons he chanced to see in the
audience to say something. Prof.
Hufty was called on. He ex-
pressed himself as beng in the
heartiest sympathy with this
movement to beautify the town.
He called attention to the un-
favorable impression made on
visitors by what they saw on their
way from the train to the hotels
and said that much improvement
is needed to prevent that. AS
president of the school board. he
assured the meeting that notable
improvements are in contempla-
ton about the school grounds
and that the advice of a landscape
gaI dener would be sought in the
matter. The statement was greeted
with cheers. Hon. M. d. Vincent
fell under the eye of the chair
man and was called to the front.
Mr. Vincent entertained the idea
that while young people reared on
tin-can alley might succeed in
life in spite of surroundings. the
ch; noes were decidedly IN favor
of those who had been reared
amid the refining influences OF
the boulevard. In his opinion
the old Grecian idea that what
ever is beautiful is good came
very near being true. He was
enthusiastically favorable to the
grading and parking of streets.
the elimination of front fences
and the cultivation of lawns. He
pointed out the fact that the
frontage tax of slo0. small as it
is, is remitted in case the property
owner pays a lawn tax of The
same amount, in other words the
tax is the same whether water is
used on the lawn or not. He
favored the formation of an orga
nization which shall devise plans
and carry them out for the beau
tifying of the town. Geo. o.
Blake next caught the chairman's
eye and was called to the carpet
He hadn't any speech. but ex.
pressed qualification at the arousal
of public sentiment which now
gives promise OF actual results.
He endorsed what the previous
speakers had said. was in favor of
grading and parking the residence
streets and the removal of front
fences. AS apreliminary to tax
ing down the fences he was in
favor of dog tax of at least SO
to be rigidly collected. He loved
amin lis. especially dogs. cats and
horses. but considered dogs an
unmitigated nuisance in town.
