are those small iron rings which. drop

MORE FIRE WARNINGS

The horse has not been stolen, as yet, but he has been cajoled pretty near to the door, and if the stable is not locked, in the course of time he may be missing. . The recent fire at John VanDeusen' s barn, and the incipient blaze in the rear of Walters meat market and the Fuller & Peet store buildings, constitute 8 double warning of which it were the part of wisdom to take heed.
 Had either of those fires occurred at night, with che wind Tn the right quarter, the consequences might we'll have been immeasurably more serious. The revs- 1ation of the inadequacy of the supply of hose and equipment, as to both quan- tity and condition, as brought out at the VanDeusen fire, must show plainly the hopelessness of relying on present facilities for exUinguishing a fire of any proportions that may break out beyond stone's throw of hydrant.
 In this instance, as in practically every other instance where fire has broken out here, the thing that counted most effectually in suppressing it was the intelligent effort of the unorganized volunteers, who fought with energy, horse sense and main strength.
 When one takes into consideration the good work that our scrub firemen have accomplished in cases of emergency in the absence of any effective apparatus, it may be readily believed that with something to work with, and with practice and systematic training under competent direction, we might have a fire company that would compare favor, ably with the crack companies of the big towns. Shall we have it?

Letters From the People
A Timely Suggestion

Editor News: I note ill the last issue of The News a suggestion as to the Me morial exercises, which, it seems to me, would be perfectly proper and presume would meet with the views of the rem nant of the G. A. R. That Is. that the citizens of the town take the matter in charge and make all arrangements and carry out a program that will be fit ting 5Oth anniversary of the beginning of one of the blOodiest wars in all histo- ". The G. A. R. has, during the years of it's existence, taken the complete charge of the exercises of this day. But their ranks are so few, and the physical condition of many of those that survive is such that their ranks will amount to little more than a detail And so, soon must these exercises be carried on by some one else, if observed at all. Not that the few wish to shrink from any duty; but we see this change must sure ly come, very soon, and wouldn t this be the time to begin?
 Kindly ask suggestions through the columns of The News. What is to be done must be, done soon.
 Truly yours, E. s. ROBERTS,
 Chairman of G. A. R. committee.

M DONALD STAYS

Highway Commissioner James Mac Donald will hold his job for another two years. at least. The long-expected nomination of a democrat, to succeed him, twas sent to the senate by Governor Baldwin, last week as related in these columns, and the senate promptly went into executive session and threw it out.
 The Governor then sent in the nomi- nation ofa republican, for the place, and the senate just as promptly threw that out.
 In each instance the nomination was rejected by strict party vote, but according to The News legislative correspondent, Carleton" there were 8 number of democratic senators ready to vote with the republicans if it had appeared that the Macdonald cause needed their help.
 Plainly, there has never been 8 moment, since the present session opened when any other man than t"Jim" Mac. Donald stood the slightest chance o1 succeeding the present commissioner
 And, counting out the politics that figured on both sides, the general verdict throughout the state, is, that the result stands as just and proper recognition of efficiency, and as a proclamation of the general belief that "Jim"N Mac Donald has made good
