OFFICE SEEKS MAN
 BUT IS DECLINED
An UnSought Nomination for Constable Is Refused
 Positively

AS an amendment to the old quo tation that some are born great, some achieve greatness and others have greatness thrust upon ;nem is offered the suggestion and some re- fuse greatness" or the latter class for whose benefit the amendment is offered is, J. L. Silyerthorn, the ad- vertising manager Of the Fair Store. He is doubtless quite willing to achieve greatness in his own way but when 1t comes to having Q particu- lar brand of greatness, for which he has no inclination, thrust upon him, then he becomes one Of those who re fuse greatness.
 At the recent primaries there was a blank left for one Of the. offices on the republican ticket. there was but one constable named in the Bisbee precinct. Mr. Silverthorn Is not without friends, well meaning friends too, but who have a sense of hHmor that under the circumstanoes did not for the nonce happen to be coinci- dent with the desires and inclina- tions Of the versatile ad man Doubt less he would make an excellent con stable if he desired to. just as there could be many other walks of life along which he eoud stride with ease and grace. These friends thought they would have some fun with the ad man and proceeded 10 fill the blank with the name T. L. Silver thorn" Result: His nomination. for constable in the Bisbee precinct cn the republican ticket.
 Now comes the display of firm ness on the part of Mr. SilYerthorn. He pushes aside the office that has sought the man. He writes to r, E. BeTner, clerk of the board oi super visoEss aBd positively declines to make the race and so his name is withdrawn and .there will be but one republican candidate for the ofFce of constable in sthe Disbee precinet.

A CONSTRUCTIVE NOTE

Edwin Markham recently sent a message to the first national confer ence on social center and civic deyel opment. convened al Madison, Wis. Following is the message which was written in verse;
 WE MEN of Earth have here the Stuff Of Paradise-we have enough We need no other things to build The Stairs into the Unfulfiued- No other ivory for the doors- No other marble for the floors No other cedar for the beam And dome of mans immortal dream HERE on the paths of every day Here on the common human way Is all the busy Gods would take To build a heaven, to mold aud make New Edens. Ours the stun sublime To build Eternity in time.
 There is something exceedingly in fectious, as well as very beautiful, in this optimistic note. 1 breathes the dominating spirit of the something the world has been looking for.
 Strange to say. it runs counter 10 some of the prevalent theology, vel the sayings of the worlds greatest spirAuat teacher whose ideas still point the way to the life that is gen timely rich and full. come thick and fast in support of it.

POSITION Of METAL
 ECHANGES QUALITIES
Corrugated Iron and Its COmbustibility Puzzle
 10 Aldermen

Al the last meeting Of the city
 council. the question was raised by
 the building inspector as to whether
 corrugated iron was combustible ol
 non-combustible when used for a side
 wall. also when used as rocf and
 further. whether a narrow rife range built back from the window of q building, was a new building. repairs or an extension. Further. whether the construction of such an affair was in contrayention of the city ordi nances. Quite a complicated state Of affairs confronted the city solons and they admitted themselves as sore ly puzzled over the complications which continued to grow. for while it might be unimrortsnt in this par ticular case. the building superintend- ent fears that some one may attempt 10 build a new building Of corrugat- ed iron, as was attempted and once prevented in the case of an automo- bile garage.
 investigation showed that the or dinances relative to walls declare they must be of stone. brick, adobe, or
 other nOn-eombustible material. % The city attorney holds this to mean of similar nature to stone. brick or adobe. and that for walls. corru- gated iron must be considered com bustible.
 A second ordinance, relative to roofs, terms tin non-combustible. and corrugated Iron being of a similar nature 10 tin when put on the roof, would appear to lose its qualities Of being combustiblc. But it again be- comes combustible when it. is to be used as a chimney. Apparently it's qualities vary materially in the posi- ton in which it is placed As a re suit of this. 1t is suggested that the council amend the ordinance So as 10 include what Is non-combustible in each instance and to exclude mater ials that are combustible, and thus eliminate those elusive and delusive words. "or other non-combustible ma terial."
 Relative as to whether the structure in question is alteration. repairs CT extension, it would appear that il is alteration or extension, but not Intended 10 be of a permanent nature, and SO it is probable that it will in this instance be allowed to stand.
 A case in another city. where there was 3 similar ordinance. is called to mind There it was decid- cd to erect walls of corrugated iron as sidewalks for an airdome SO that they might easily be removed. The city would not permit it. and the Of the amusement enterprise put up a brick wall to the height Of four feet. iron pillars. and then termed the movable corrugated iron walls shutters. This passed muster in that city.
 But in Bisbee, the combustibility of corrugated iron. until the ordi- nances are changed. threaten to be as open to debate as the old mooted question as to whether it was the hen or the egg that first appeared upon this mundane sphere.

ROOSEVELT WRITES
 OF COUNTRY LIFE
His Approval Of the Farm Bet terment Movement to Be
 Launched at Spokane
CITIES OUGHT TO HELP

SPOKANE. Wash. Nov. I5.-De serving of the hearty support of the cities and the people in general all over the country Is the farm better ment movement to be launched at the first annual meeting Of the National Country Life congress in Spokane, says Theodore Roosevelt in a letter 10 David Brown, chairman of the loc- al committee. The full text of the letter follows.
 T understand that the purpose of the first National Country Life con gress for farm betterment, which is 10 meet al Spokane in the last week Of November, is to get from the prac- tical men and women in all parts of the country workable plans and ideas as to what can be done for the better. ment of conditions in the farming re- giOns.
 You have now exhausted two is. sues of thousands of copies of tht National Country Life commission re- port and l cannot too strongly ex- press my feeling of the obligation the entire country is under to the cham Der Of commerce of Spokane for its acticn in printing this rtport. when congress. with shameful indifference to the interests Of the people, de clined to print it.
 Many letters from all over the country have been written to you, making urgent inquiry as to the best practical scheme for achieving the betteTment outlined in the commis- siOn's report Now you propose to get from men and women, best com petent 10 testify, the plans and ideas that the communities ready to go for. ward in the work are prepared to submit. You will thereby get the best thought that our people car give and to formulate 1t in such way that we nay all of us have it before us for the making of better homes, better schools, better churches in the open country.
 Tn the farming districts We need greater social opportunities for those who live on the soil. As a basis. of course. We need better production better reads. better ways of market. ing, better methods of cooperation among farmers. and then on this foundation of improved material con dition we must strive to build the Eigher superstructure Of a full social 1 intellectual and spiritual life for ths men and women who live on ths farms
 In this matter the cities can hell and ought to help, and Spokane has shown it's ability to take the lead ir ! helping. But .it is. Of course. tho i farmers themselves who in the end must give us the lead and the rest o us must turn in and help them ana ! help see their ideas successful
 "It is vitally important to get work able ideas for consideration before ] your congress. The men and wome7 who present such ideas in practica ! fashion Will enormously assist in thi, work.
 T most heartily wish you well ir your undertaking for the advancement Of our common national good. It il a mighty task and you deserve th' ! gratitude. of the country"

CITY WILL SOON ACT
 ON CEMETERY MATTER
Committee Has Made Pro-
 greSS and Special Coun- ell Meeting likely

Progress relative to improvements ai the city cemetery is being made by the committee which has the matter in hand. This committee was in po- sition 10 make a partial report at the meeting Of the council on Tues day night. but there was so much other business that was before the body on this occasion. and the mat ters connected with cemetery prob lems involve SO much. that it will take probably an entire evening 10 dispose Of them. and a special meet ing Is to be held for that purpose.
 Before the aldermen met on Tues day night the city engineer was there with a large bundle of maps and papers, the fruits or his recent labors relative to the city cemetery. Surveys have been made. and n has been determined how many graves are now occupied and how much space there remains for other ,gtaves, and how many can be cared. for in that space. The data compiled shows the exact number of graves occupied by known dead and the number of unknown dead as well. those wllol were buried and no record made io show who they are or in what grave they were placed. The number of the lat ter. the unknown. Is far in excess of the known, as has been previously stated. In addition to this data, fig ures are compiled So as 10 show how graves there are in the various lots that have been assigned to the differ- ent orders, individually and collect lively, and how much space for fu- ture use remains in these lots.
 In addition to this work that has been done, the city attorney, who is on the eommitte with Alderman AL len and the city clerk, has written to a number of cities for the purpose CT obtaining information as to how the problem is handled there, has received a number of deplies and is about ready to prepare the necessary ordinance for Bisbee. It is likely that soon the unfortunate state of affairs taat has existed in the past will soon cease 10 be possible

GROWING CLAMOR
 FOR BANK REFORM
Present Conditions Are De- scrlbed as a Monetary
 FeudaIiSm'

CHICAGO, Now 15:-Rebellion against the present feudal monetary system by which the general business of the west suffers from being at the mercy of a centralized credit system suddenly has broken out in notable public discussions of which Chicago seems likely to be the center De- clarations made at the dinner here of the Western Economic society at which Senator Aldrich spoke on cur rency reform and at the Kansas City Convention of the Trans Mississippi Commercial congress indicate the de- termination of business men to secure the adoptiin of a more equitable bank ing system.
 it was Professor J. Laurence Laugh lin. chairman of the executive com mittee of the National Citizens lea que in his Kansas City speech who graphically portrayed the dependence of the smaller financial institutions upon the greater city banks. He de clared that the strangling Of the lend ing power of banks under the present system Is a crime against society"
 Now what is the remedy?" he said. Obviously, only that kind of reform which will destroy this de pendence and give aid to the smaller bank. if it has satisfactory paper. as a right and not a favor Men do not like to go down on their knees for special fayors and when that is no lo-ie necessary the present form of unregulated centralization will disap- pear. What we must now strive for as in all other great democratic move ments is liberty under law to the end that all banks. large and small. shall be placed on an essentially equal foot. ing" The National citizens league has under the closest scrutiny the plau of the National Reserve association as a cure for the country's monetary evils. Professor Laughlin has said that the plan in its essentials with some possible alteration of details Will provide the much needed reform and the National citizens league has approved of the principles embodied in the plan.

AT PHILADELPHIA.

New Yorks pennant prospects took a
big jump Friday when McGraw,s team
won two pitchers battles here. The trst
game went II innings, Mathewson oppos-
ing Moore. The visitors scored the win
ming run of Fletchers single and stea
and Deyore's two-bagger.
In the second contest Vanguard pitched
the greatest article of ball seen here this
season and came near getting no-hlt
mark. The only hit made off him was &
single by Luderus in the fifth inning. The
latter was the only home player to reach
first base, as Marquard did not give a
pass and was accorded perfect support
except for the muff of a foul fly by My
ers. Marquard struck out 10 batsmen
and caused IA others TO so out ON fly
balls.
