dare attack us? We are doing our share
across the border. You do yours II there
ever comes a time when the Monroe Doc

this country. but in the North Sea And
we are both English speaking peoples. We
ought to commingle more, and thus cement
eternally the friendship between us. There
will never again be a war between this
country and England"
Great was the roar Of appreciation which

Albany. April Ex-Governor Hughes had
not seen the memorial submitted TO the
Legislature on the direct primary question.
He declined to discuss It when the chief
arguments made in IL were repeated 10 him.
A distinct division of opinion regarding
the memorial exists here among direct pri-
mary advocates. Considering the fact that
practically all OF the men who signed this
document have opposed the direct primary
principle in the past. some of the Gov
ernor's friends take the attitude that their
consent TO have the direct nomination OF
legislators indicates a halfway conver-

of the evening with the passage of a
number of ordinances, and upon its
conclusion Councilman Lachmund
wanted to know why the ordinance
committee had not submitted a re-
port on an ordinance which had for
its object the raising of the salary
of City Treasurer Crossan to 500 Il
month.
This ordinance" he said, has
been in the hands of the ordinance
committee for six weeks, and l want
an explanation"
Councilman Eldridge arose to an
nounce that he had been busy but
would submis it in the near future.
Councilman Lachmund came back
with a motion that the ordinance
committee be instructed to report
at the next meeting on the subject
and in the event of it's failure that
he council take it out of its hands.
Councilman Greenbaum gained
the floor, and offered the explana-
ton that he had conversed with
councilmen on the subject and that
he was satisfied that the ordinance
would not pass and that this was one
reson why it had been buried.
But you are nc prophet" retort-
ed Lachmund. "How do you know
whether it will pass or not, and
what right has the committee 70
pigeon hole it? Let it come up, and
let us have a vote upon it." The
question was put and upon a vote
was lost.

tion of advertising rates came up
for consideration and a committee
of Councilman Mofft. |

pointed to make an investigation |
along this line.
