NO SCAVENGER FOR CITY

The mayor will appoint no city
scavenger at present, The matter
was up for discussion at previous
meeting of the council when two ap-
plicants for such position we're
considered. 1t was checked up to the
board of health committee for recon-
mendation and chairman Hayes re-
ported Monday night that such an
officer was not needed at least during
the winter.
An applicant for the task of burying
the dogs which might be killed in the
city because notax was paid for them
appeared before the council. A
motion that a contract be made with
him for collecting the tax, or killing
and burying the dogs when collection
was not made, failed for lack Of sup
port and no action was taken.

PILLS AND POLITICS

cat its annual conference in Chi
cago this week the National League
for Medical Freedom makes pro.
per protest against the disgraceful
attempt, which is now under way to
induce Congress to pass a law for
the glory and profit of one school
of medicine and against all other
forms of medical practice.
"It is we'll that the League has
brought prominently before the
American people the lmpudent and
Injurious features of the bill that
ostensibly is intended merely to
protect the public health. Allo-
pathic doctors who undertake 10
use Congress to put down homeo-
pathic and all other schools of
medicine except their own, are 60
ing far in the direction of medieval
ism, against which the Government
of the United States itself stands as
a monumental protest. 1t is not to
be supposed that advocates of the
allopathic school of medicine gen.
orally approve of this amazing busl-
ness, for no right thinking American
can believe in state system of
medical practice any more than he
believes in a state church. Support
of this scheme of making politics
serve as the handmade of particu-
lar school of medicine has been Sc
cured up to the present time largely
by false pretenses. The American
public is under obligations to the
League for Medical Freedom be-
cause of its exposure of this insid-
uous effort to prepare the way for
an allopathic trust in a country
which boasts of its love of liberty.
All schools of medicine must be
permitted in this country to stand
strictly on their merits. To legis-
late in behalf of any one of them,
to the injury of the Others, would
be intolerable. If boosted up by
the law, the practitioner of the
favored type would not have to rely
thenceforth exclusively on his skill
and might proceed to lower his
standard of efficiency or take other
liberties with his legally established
position. Keep pills out of politics
that the national health and the
national ideas of freedom may not
suffer."-Chicsgo Daily News, No
vember 20, 1911.

DUNHAM AVENUE TO
keep PRESENT NAME

Whether any consideration other
than the present inconvenience in
names should have weight in the
remaining of Chanute street was
decided affirmatively by the mega
tive votes of three councilmen
Monday night when the ordinance
to change the name of Durham
avenue for a distance of three
blocks to North Western avenue
was brought up for second reading
and final passage. The votes OF
Filson, Nation, Freeman and
Bideau were favorable to the
ordinance but majority of the en-
tire council is required to pass an
ordinance and it was lost. Hedeen
was absent and Stewart, Johnson
and Hays voted against the ordi-
nance.
In explaining his vote Stewart
stated that Judge Durham was en-
titled to have street named after
him. Recognizing however the
confusion from having one section
of a street called Western and a
part of it Durham he suggested
that the latter name be given to the
entire length of the street. John
son went on record as favoring one
name for the entire street but
having been informed that the
change contemplated in the ordi'
nance was because of some spite
work he would refuse to help any
one get vengeance by voting for
the ordinance in question. Bideau
gave as one argument for the
change in names the danger that
insurance policies concerned with
property on that street might be
inyalidated. Mayor Beach de-
plored the failure in the passage of
the ordinance, but the insurgents
refused to change their votes.
An ordinance for an extension of
subsewer B. No in District No a
to accommodate property owners in
lots, IL 10 and IA of block a
Alliance addition was referred to
the ordinance committee as was
one for the paving of South Forest
with brick from Main street to
South Third street.

Fite's charge to the grand jury here
Monday morning just after the organiza-
ton of superior court, was filled with
discussions of the new laws enacted by
the legislature this year; he charged on
the new game and fish laws, the new
school laws, the prohibition laws and
other matters of interest and import
ance.
Hurrying briefly over civil matters, he
gave almost his entire time to charging
on criminal matters, severely arraigning
the dope" sellers who, he had been in
formed, were extremely busy here. He
stated that reports which had reached
him led to the belief that there was
more doping" going on here than in
any other part of the circuit, and ne
urged a rigid investigation along this
line, asking the grand jury to secure the
books kept by various druggists in
which the law expressly states that all
sales Of morphine and similar drugs be
entered, and go thoroughly into them.
Judge Fite severely criticised two
of the state, and also re-
ferred indirectly to Judge RusseIls can
didacy for governor, repeating in sub
stance. their recent newspaper contro-
versy.

ESPLOsION.0F BOILERS
DID NOT WRECK THE MAINE
Contention That BattleShip
Was Wrecked by Boilers
Is Proven False

by Associated Hress.l
WASHINGTON. Oct 10-At least one
fact has developed beyond controversy in
connection with the excavation going on
inside the Golfer dam enclosing the
wreck OF the Maine in Havana haroor.
That Is that the ship was not blown up
by ner boilers.
some have ccntended that the explo-
sion Of the boilers esused the maya
xines 10 explode in turn. But a report
from the army engineers shows the
workmen have uncovered the tops Of the
boilers which were intact, with one ex-
ceptfon. That was In the case of one
Of the forward boilers which was not
burst. but which had been driven bodily
astern by the blast from the magazines
It had gone clear through a heavy bulk
head and against one Of the after boil
ers.
Another curious find was an ammuni-
ton case which had been blown aft from
the mAgazines into the rear boiler room
without exploding the smokeless pow
der il contained.
That report SHOWS that instead of be-
ing able to float only the after third Of
the hull IL has been found possible taht
more than half Of the ship can be pump
ed out and fioated out OF the dam This
viii greatly reduce the work of remov-
ing the wreck from the harbor.
The engine rooms have been found al
most complteIy filled with mud The en-
gines 50 far uncovered. were found
IN remarkable state OF preservation
However. they are OF no use except as
junk. It Is expected bones of a number
OF bodies will be found in the boiler
rooms when all OF the mud has been re-
moved down 10 the floor plates.
