Barton won the Labor Day game at

Voted to Buy Suitable Fire Alarm.

At the special village meeting
called last evening to see what action
the voters would take upon the petit
tion presented to the trustees by a
number of the prominent voters of
the village for a better fire alarm, it
was voted to instruct the trustees and
fire wardens to purchase a suitable
alarm, not to exceed $1,000 in cost and
suitably locate the same. The meet
ing was not largely attended but
there were few descending votes.
This will fill crying need for a suit
able alarm since the Pillsbury- Bald

Roosevelt and the Canal

In his speech at the University of
California Colonel Roosevelt made this
statement;
l am interested in the Panama canal be-
cause l started it. If l had followed ira
ditional conservative methods l would
have submitted a dignified state paper Of
probably 200 pages to congress and the de-
bate on it would haveC been going on vet !;
but took the canal zone and let congress
debate; and while the debate goes on, the
canal does also.
Very naturally this provokes criti-
cism from some of the anti-Rooseyelt
papers that contend he should have
pursued the traditional conservative
methods" His system of action may
have been a little irregular; that is.
irregular as compared with what the
country had been accustomed to, but
the canal was the thing we were after
and 1t is what we have obtained. It
has not yet developed that the meth
DDS by which the government acquired
the canal zone and set to work build
ing the waterway were disastrous or
out OF joint with the best interests
altogether involved.
or course, while the president cut
out the red tape and pushed the action.
through to a speedy conclusion, what
was necessary by way of preliminary
negotiations was performed with sufl-
cient elaboration, though expedi-
tiously enough to make it Of the great
est service to the early building of the
canal For generation the country
had been debating the question of a
waterway somewhere in that region.
Under Roosevelt the talk crystallized
into action. His enemies, therefore.
will have hard time bringing an in
dietment against him now on the
charge OF violating traditional con-
sentative methods"

Political Drift

Senator Lorimer investigators bid fair
to 80 on while his term lasts.
According to New York papers MIR. Muir
ply is the toughest senatorial proposition
that ever came down the pike. He won't
listen to editorial reason.
Memphis papers are working googoo
eyes toward Colonel Bryan hoping to lure
him from Nebraska and Texas to Ten
nessee.
Only three days more to congress-. Hap
PLY the season of modification and prayer
viii help some in bearing up under the ad-
ditional burden.
According to the Philadelphia Record
there are 5000 candidates for the 500 jobs
at the disposal OF the democratic majority
in the house of representatives. An absence
of fourteen years from the federal pie
counter tends to produce widespread hun
ger.
The lineup in the municipal campaign in
Chicago Is decidedly mixed. Garter Har,
rison has rallied the Hearst forces to his
support, while former Mayor Dunno and
his followers sulk in their tents. The vim
dictive assaults of the Heart paper on Har-
rison in previous campaigns are turned to
fulsome flattery in this. Several years
residence In California has made Harrison's
hide unusually tender. Merely because the
Tribune reprinted some Of abe Hearst dope
OF past years brought from the democratic
candidates a suit for libel with damages
fixed at $4,000. On the republican side
Candidate Merriam is regarded as too much
Of a reformer to suit the Lorimer crowd
and the Inter Ocean practices political sur
gerry every morning in an effort TO put the
knife into Merriam's vitals. The outcome
Of the various cutting ARRAYS will be
known next Tuesday evening.
A delegation representing the Voters
league of Pittsburg talked loud and strong
to a legislative committee in Harrisburg
In favor Of bill recasting the government
Of the Smoky city. The spokesman of the
party made sensational exposure of mu-
nicipal corruption. During the last two
years 1iS indictments and thirty-nlne graft
informations were returned by the grand
jury. Thirty-four persons plead guilty,
ten were convicted, two acquitted, two
fugitives from justice, and two dead.
sixty-six indicted members of the city
government are still holding their jobs.
1t was asserted that graft amounting to
81, 100000 a year is squeezed out of the
citizens of the underworld, and the speak
er's description Of conditions in that sec
ton drove women spectators from the
committee meeting. Mayor Magee of Pitts
burg was charged with taking city money
for his own use, the dates and amounts
being specified.
