THE ENERGETIC GAS COMPANY.

= winning for itself words of praise Its
fine new quarters were thrown open to the pub
lie yesterday and inspected and many were the
compliments heard on all sides. The company
is full of life and energy and activity, and Mr.
Shut besides being a gentleman of much cor

believes in making justihable noise about the
Gas Company. We wish that some six hundred
men like Mr.. Shut would descend upon Will

The headquarters of the Gas Company arc, of
course very fine The company would not have
ANYTHING that was not first-class. One thing
about the Gas Company is that it attends to its

NATIONAL POLITICAL SITUATION

A n interesting article on politics is that OF
"A Colonel James H. Lambert, the veteran
political writer of the Philadelphia Press. Col
onel Lambert is one OF the most careful news
paper men in this part of the country. He
declares that the Republican leaders at the cap
ta fear that the Democrats will control the
next House of Representatives, and it is admit
ted that they have even chance
According to Colonel Lambert. there is no
agreement about the cause of this situation.
The insurgents put the blame the regulars
and the regulars condemn the insurgents.
Underneath it all there appears to be lack of
leadership and an obstinacy on the part of
Speaker Cannon and those close to him. Edi-
torally the Press admits that the drift is against
the Republicans and thinks it best that the true
situation should be acknowledged and remedy
sought. 1t requires skilled and unsehsh leader
ship to bring about victory for the Republi-
cans at the next election. With Democratic
victory it is almost certain that business dis
turbances would come and should think that
business men were becoming tired of hearing
about disturbances and commercial fears of
various kinds With the Democrats in control
of the next House, there would be a tremendous
crop of fears that the Democrats would win IN
1912 and that business would be thrown into
semi-panic because of proposed tinlering with
the tariff
The attitude of Democratic leaders toward
the tariff commission, which has the indOrse-
ment OF many OF the most influential Republican
leaders and newspapers indicates that the pur-
pose Of the Democrats is to upset the present
tariff law. Uncertainty therefore would reign.
We fancy that the business interests of this
country wish to settle down to a term of years
free from undue political mejdling. AS the
business of the country increases such disturb
ances become more and more disastrous in their
effects The thing then for the Republicans TO
do is to get together unless they wish to face
certain defeat and its far-reaching i'll consc-
ouences to the business of the nation

A little group Of Chester men at a

which his father did not have. could not

He resolved that he and his family

II was Or. Sangerbond. of Paris, who

So in Paris. where the hair is better

was to kin the microbe that did the
