kind will count 100000 vote for you
this week.
Do not stop at one club but keep on
there is no limit to the number of
clubs that you can turn in this week
and the more that you can get the
larger advantage it will give you.
Overcome The Lead Of Others.
Now is your chance to overcome
the lead Of heiother contestants, who
grasped opportunity by the horns and
gathered in their subscriptions last
week. Those that are a little behind
in the race can easily overcome the
lead OF the others by putting a little
more energy in their work the coming
week. You will be surprised to see
how easily you can overcome the lead
that looks so large to you at present.
Early Work Is The Easiest.
Candidates and prospective eandl-
dates will do well to read the rules
and regulations of this great race.
The more familiar that you become
with the many details, the more readi
ly you will find reasons for certain
actions at certain times. The physical
ly and mentally man isn't especially
worried about his affairs, for the very
simple reason that he knows just ex-
actly what he is doing; how much pro
gress he is making; whether or not
he is advancing-and all because he
understands the details of the bust
ness.
In this contest, as in every other,
the early work is important. It is i'm
portant to start early and important
to be thoroughly familiar with every
condition in the great race. Early
work in every contest is most effec-
tive as the field is then open and the
territory has not been covered. This
is just a plan case of properly ap-
piled intelligent, directed effort; the
more alert, persevering contestant
reaping the greatest benefits. This
is not beauty contest but the can
didate that gathers in the largest
number of votes is the one that
haryests the benefit.

Twelve Million ar Subway Con-
q Cambridge.
Cambridge, Mass, April 3.-The
Cambridge subway is now complete,
and the annexation of Harvard Uni
versity to the city of Boston, via a
white-tiled way of wonders will be an
accomplished fact as soon as the
tracks have been laid, the subway sta
tions have been properly furnished
and the Boston end of the work has
been finished.
The big Cantabrigian bore is prac-
tically all in, SO to speak.
The thousands of Harvard gradu-
ates, in ali parts of the country, re-
turning to Cambridge at commence
ment or other times the past year or
two, have looked with wonderment at
the wooden flooring across Harvard
square, the derricks, the dump carts
and dirt-grimed workmen delving
among the foundations of Americas s
oldest university Some learned
with surprise that the excavations at
one point unearthed the foundation
piles of the original Harvard College
building, the exact location of which
had been forgotten
Now the digging is over. Just be-
fore the 1st of February Major Gen
eral William A. Bancroft, Harvard
'78, president of the Boston Elevated
Railway Company, presented a silk
hat to Harry P. sNawn, in charge of
the construction company, in conse-
quence of bet as to the date of end
ing the job. What little the public
sees looks good. An entrance, with
handsome colonial brickwork that con-
forms closely to the style of the
older and better buildings in the Har-
ward yard, has been built for the
connection of the subway trains with
trolley services to the northward.
There is talk of utilizing the space
over the other trolley entrance, to the
western suburbs, by erecting stu
dents apartments above it.
Within a few months, at all events,
the Harvard undergraduates the visit
| ing graduates, and one and all of the
| thousands of other Americans who
from time to time take in the historic
themselves at Harvard Square only
eight minutes away from the heart of
the Hub.

Will Be
HARMONIOUS
THE REPUBLICAN CAUCUS TO.
NIGHT WILL SHOW NO PARTY
FACTIONS
MANN Will BE LEADER

Washington, D. c., April 3-The Re-
publicans of the House will hold their
caucus in the hall of the House of
Representatives tonight. The indica-
tlons are that the caucus will be even
more harmonious than the Democratic
love feast on Saturday.
The leaders of the two Republican
factions are anxious to close UP their
differences at least temporarily.
The insurgents held a conference
today, but the indications are that
most most Of them will attend the caucus
There will be no opposition to Rep
resentative Mann for minority leader.
Nearly all the members of Congress
are present now and ready for the
opening tomorrow.
Important changes in procedure,
and a general reorganization of the
House will result from the action of
the Democratic caucus held Saturday.
The power of naming committees was
definitely taken from the peaker
by the new rules, and lodged in the
House itself. Committee members
are to be elected by the House, not
only N the first instance, but also
in the filling of vacancies.
A saving of $182,O0O in the an
nual cost of running Congress SIS
promised through the cutting out of
superfluous employees ana IN active
committees; and through the abe,
ishment OF the time honored 4extra
months pay" Appointive places all
are put into the hands of one com
mittee, pecial body to known
as the committee on organization:
and the scramble for Congressional
positions will center about it's door.

under which the new Congress- will
operate were made

81, ,ooo, 900 Is Needed To Repair Dam
age To New York capito

Albany, N. Y, April 3.-An expent
diture of $4,OOO,00O will be necessary
to restore the State Capitol to its con-
dition before the fire, according to a
revised estimate submitted to Gov
ernor Dix by the State Architect, Mr..
Ware. This figure is based on the
most thorough examination of the
smoke blackened pile.
While the entire west side of the
imposing structure will have to be re
built, the examination showed that
the walls and foundations in the i'm
mediate fire zone were unimpaired,
and that water in the building had
not done as much damage as was at
first supposed.
Another discovery received with
satisfaction by Governor Dix and
State officials was that many volumes
and historic records in the State Ii
brary at first thought destroyed had
been found intact and but slightly
damaged Workmen cleaning away
the debris have found thousands of
books that can be repaired at COM
paratively little cost, but the great
bulk of the six hundred thousand
volumes had been reduced to ashes

IS AGAINST REELECTION


himself to the advocacy of many of
the reforms demanded by the revolu-
to the influence of public opinion,
General Diaz answered his critics
through his semi-annIal message at
the opening Saturday of the national
Congress.
The principle of no reelection of
the Chief Executive and incumbents
of other elective offices and the re
form of the electoral laws, so that the
privilege of the ballot may be enjoy
ed by those citizens "who are consid-
cred capable Of voting" were advo-
Gated.
The message refers specifically to
the application of the no reelection
principle to the naming of Governors
one of the chief contentious of the
discontented element through the re-
public, the President stating that if
a bill providing for the periodical
renovation Of the officials in question
should come before Congress it would
have his earnest support.
Abuse of Power.
Abuse of power by jefes politicos,
another OF the evils complained of by
residents in the rural districts, is to
be abated, according to the plan out
lined by the President.
The President proposes to improve
the efficiency of the judiciary through
more careful selection of it's per
sonnel and 1engthening of the tenure
of Office Efficacious punishment Of
judicial functionaries for malfeasance
is to be brought about through the
enactment of more stringent meas
ures.
On the subject of the division of
the great private estates, first
broached by Minister Limantour in
his Paris interview, the Executive de-
clared his determination to find ef-
f1cient means for bringing about the
innovation.
IN no previous message of the
President has there been anything in
the nature of a Recommendation
Until the present his messages have
been resumes of things accomplished
The public knowing that the Presi-
dent would in his message to the
Twenty fifth Congress, depart from
the ordinary course and suggest spe-
cia1 legislation, has shown the most
intense interest. This feeling Of ex-
pectancy found expression in the
members of Congress, and from the
minute the Chief Executive entered
the Chamber of Deputies until the
last word of his message, every man
on the floor, as we'll as those persons
in the galleries, listened intently
Every available seat in the galleries
was occupied, either by diplomats,
public officials or by those fortunate
enough to have obtained cards of ad-
mission.
