STILL ANOTHER SONG
FOR T0TTENviLLE FOLK

The following is the second install
ment of Yankee Doodle up to date
by Cornelius Shea in reference to the
change of Bentley Manor to Totem
vile:
Yankee Doodle.
Yankee Doodle came to town
Wearing brand new trousers.
Says he: "The folks of Tettenville
Most certainly are ~rousers!
There's plenty houses here, you
bet!-
J An most has a palmer
But barns they haven't quite enough
To call it Bentley Manor"
Chorus:
Yankee Doodle, keep 1t upi~q
T~ottenville is dandy;
Bentley Manor's on the hog
Says Yankee Doodle Dandy.
"The p~ostoffiee looks mighty fine;
The people are delighted,
Though maybe there are just a few
Who low their hopes are blighted.
If such there be- ] hope that they
Will soon be quite forgotten,
An use shanks mare to chase them
selves
Away from good old. Totten!"
Chorus: Yankee Doodle, etc.
Nov hip hooray for Tottenville.
It's known throughout the nation
And let us hope that it improves
Till over all creation
1t will be known that right down
! here
The people do the ruling,
And that when they ONCE get aroused
They won't stand any fooling."

What May De EXpected of Aidrich

49, n-r ~ - 8L III
Miss Ida NJ. Tarbeli writes about
|"Mr.- Aldrich and the Tariff" in the
EDeeember American Magazine. In
the course OF her review of Mr.. Al
drich's ideas and methods In tariff
revision, she says:
1.-THE fact that Mr.. Aldrich has
said he will retire from the senate
| with the expiration Of his present
term does not let US out and for two
reasons; the bill which is credited
so largely to him has proved ~unsatis-
| factory to everybody. 1t is a fore
gone conclusion that we must have a
new one unless war Or pestilence
drags attention from 1t. To under
stand what is wrong with 1t we must
understand the ideas and methods
on tariffs and tariff-making which
Mr.. Aldrich employed. Moreover,
we must know more of Mr.. Aldrich
| for another reason. He retires from
the senate, but it is believed he as
| pires to q position which has in II
a chance for more OF veal or woe to
the people than any other which we
must fll-that is, the head Of the
monetary commission, the body
which Is to work out a new system
| of handling and safeguarding the ma
tons money. Broadly speaking, it
remains with that commission
whether our medium of exchange
shall be centralized in such a way
that they can be controlled and man.
~ipulated by the few groups into
whose hands our wealth Is so rapid
ly flowing, or whether they shall be
centralized in such q way that they
can be controlled and manipulated
by the few groups into whose hands
our wealth Is so rapidly flowing, or
whether they" shall be protected from
undue individual and corporate in
fuence. If Mr.. Aldrich becomes the
permanent head of the monetary
commission what can we expect Of
him-serYice for that rather sha-
/ dowy, though by no means unreal or
inactive power, which we call special
interests, or service for the nation?
VIII be think II his business to make
1t easier for the corporations to get
money or for the people? We are at
a point where this is the first and
most important question to decide
about each nan whom we allow in Of
fee. Where lies his faith? In the
few or the many? What does Mr..
Aldrieh's tariff record of 1909 teach
about this? Let~us TRY to untangle
from the mass Of opinions. statistics,
eolloquies, debates and rumors out
fof which the Payne-Aldrich bill f.
nally emerged, the principles, the
sympathies and the methods which
actuated its chief architect He is
a man Of few words, not often ex-
| planning himself, but the situation
in which he found himself in 1909
forced a statement Of principles and
policy quite sufficient for our pur-
pose"

Contrary to the usual sparring sys-

much to the discontinue of his OPP

Johnson shows vast appreciation of
the Governors favorable comments on

Manager Tom Flanagan. who partici-

the Governor what he thought Of the
sparring match. but the latter shifted
and dismissed the question.
II had been thought that the Coy
ernor intended to stay only q few

SAN FRANCISCO, June 29.-Betting
at odds of 10 tot. with Jeffries on the
long end. continued at a lively rate here
yesterday in the poolroom OF the official
betting commissioner for the Jeffries-
Johnson fight.
Tom Corbett received large sums from
Canadian points, which he placed at the
prevailing odds. The bulk OF the money
continues to be furnished by local fight
followers. but considerable betting was
done today by visitors waiting here pre-
paratory to their trip to Reno.
Corbett left today for Reno, where he
will take personal charge Of the bet
ting.
The deadlock over the moving pic
lures of the Jeffries johnson fight came
to an end last night when representa-
Itlves of the two concerns claiming equal
interests in the concession formed a
merger.
An Eastern company. known as the
Moving Picture Trust, claimed a half
interest In the pictures by purchase of
a third interest Of JeTries and a sixth
share held by Tex Rickard, and q local
concern claimed Johnson's one-third
and Gleason,s one-sixth. By the terms
OF the merger tneTe VIII We one CUM

The steamer Wilhelmina arrived yes
terday from Honolulu, bringing we'll
known sporting men from the Antipo-

Among them are Hugh Mcintosh, an
Australian fight promoter; Tommy

a member of the money-chasing rank.
The Jamaica boy has done great work
in his practise spins and many pick
him to win the race from Anderson and
Mitten. The ability of Anderson Is well
known as a pace follower, for on sew

fast work In races in which he was a
starter. Mitten, the midget, is also a
good man behind the chug-chug ma
