Senator LaFollette is amused at
President Taft's latest effort To
show his disapproval. The presi-
dent appointed Guy ". Golf as
United States district attorney at
Milwaukee, ignoring Senator La
Follette's recommendation of a
man named McElroy-a recon-
mendation made more than two
years ago. The presidents se2-
rotary. Mr.. Norton, went to WIS
consin to investigate, and it ap-
pears to be on his recommends
ton that Mr.. Golf has been named.
Mr.. Golf is friend of the recently
elected governor. who is friend
of LaFollette. 1t seems to be the
theory of Mr.. Norton and Mr..
Taft that the friendship of Wiscon-
sins progressives would be bought
from the new governor for the
price of this government job.

Walter l.. Smith is one of two

The friends of Clark have believed
that he would have the support

the nomination of Judson Harmon
and with this support would stand
an excellent chance to defeat the
Harmon nomination. Woodrow
Wilson S course in approving popu-
lar government measures, the mi

some uncertainty as to whether

Duluth FLAX.
City Ordinance for Fire Trans

That Boston is taking to heart the
lesson OF the Chelsea fire which de-
stroyed the homes OF tens OF thou
sands of people is shown by the recon-
mendations of radical changes which
the committee on fire prevention of
the Boston Chamber Of Commerce
makes after a years investigation.
The committee says The Survey,
wishes to prevent a second holo-
caust which it believes is lowering
over Boston; for in the Dorchester
and Roxbury districts the continuous
blocks Of cheaply constructed three
deckers' are dangerous fire hazards.
The loss has thus far been very
light, but the danger of a disaster
which would sweep out blocks at a
time is always present. To reduce
this risk the committee recommends
the enactment of city ordinances
which will prohibit, within the city
limits, buildings which constitute such
great risks.
The committee insists that nothing
but first-class, fire. proof buildings
should be erected in the congested
districts. and concludes that:
Even in our large cities where fre-
proof buildings have become general.
there are still in existence groups OF
buildings which on the interior are
largely constructed of wood. These
Sc called second class buildings make
possible a conflagration at any time.
Such a holocaust as has. been expert
enced by Elizabeth. Chelsea, Balti-
more. San Francisco. Portland and
Bangor may be expected In Boston at
any time.
" The number Of deaths due to FIRE
is also out Of all reasonable proper
tion in this country, over 5000 peo-
pie having lost their lives in one
year. The loss Of life In foreign
countries is small. All rules and regu-
lations which tend toward the re-
duction OF fire. waste will, Of course.
reduce this loss Of life Recent ex-
periences in this country, particularly
the fire Of April Z. 1911, IN New York
City. show an utter disregard for law
and reasonable conditions OF safety. "

Awaiting HE Friends.

Today Coroner Vincent said he was
awaiting the arrival of friends of the
late Simon N. Lien. whose dead body
was found in a retiring room of a
saloon near the north bridge, before
taking formal action in the matter
OF holding an inquest touching the
cause Of the mans death. Mr.. Vim
cent also desires the attendance of
Mr.. wangsness Of Finley. N. D., who
identified the body and furnished the
coroner with important details. Mr..
Wangsness is expected to arrive in
the city some time today or tomorrow
morning. This morning, Mr.. Vincent
had received no information as to
where the bottle. containing strych-
nine, found in the room where the
body was found, had been purchased.
The officials are determined that
everything possible viii be done to
properly establish the cause Of The
death of Mr.. Lien and they hope that
friends from GAINESVILLE his home
town, will be able TO furnish some en-
lightenment.
