Washington, Dec. PA water supply
for the United States naval station at
Guantanamo, cuba, IS guaranteed by
the convention between the United
States and cuba. signed IN Havana, to-
day. The otherwise admirable features
of the Guantanamo naval station have
been rendered less valuable by the al
most complete absence Of portable wa

An Enthusiastic Homecoming for
Pres. ELECT Wilson at Stanton, Va.

my warmest greetings and heartiest
best wishes.
Sincerely,
WOODROW WILSON"
Washington, Dec 27.--Inauguration
ceremonies in the past have been too
spectacular and pretentious, in the
opinion of President elect Woodrow
Wilson, who wants his inauguration
to be as simple as possible At Wash
ington, where the train stopped for
a few minutes en- route to Staunton,
Gov. Wilson talked, today, with Will
liam Cockrane Eustis, recently chosen
chairman of the inauguration com
mittee
THE thing has been overdone in the
past" said the Governor to him. Il wish
you would have the ceremonies as simple
as may be consistent with dignity and
order
The President-elect today, had his first
glimpse of the National Capital since his
election. GOV. Wilson shook hands hearth
ly with those introduced to him. He then
stepped into the car and the informal re-
eeption continued as the car was switch
ed from the Pennsylvania tracks to a
Chesapeake e. Ohio train.

Something for Nothing

Almost everyone can find to ones
own satisfaction a most important
contributing cause to the wreck OF
the Titanic; what this cause may be,
all depends on the angle of ones in
terests. Printers ink devoted to the
printers craft, declares that one such
contributing cause was the desire Of
the White Star line to receive in the
press of two continents advertising
for which 1t would never have to pay.
1t is argued that, if the boat made a
record maiden passage, added to the
fact that she was the largest vessel
afloat the newspapers would spread
far and wide the news OF her perfor-
nance, with descriptions of her lux
urlous equipment, and the like, with
the result that she would have be
come a favorite with ocean travellers
Which does not seem so unreasonable
after all.-St Adams Messenger.

Is He Republican or Socialist

On June 81, next, there viii as

delegates of the Republican party Of
Vermont to place in nomination can
didates Of that party for certain state
officers At other times and places,
delegates OF the Democratic party,
the Prohlbitionist party, and the
Socialist party will meet for SINH
lar purpose. Each party is presum'
ed TO offer as it's candidates, persons
who believe in and adhere to Its ten
cts. doctrines and principles. owing
to the fact that for many years past
the Republican voters OF the state
have constituted a large majority OF
its electorate, II is conceded that a
nomination by that party is equiva'
lent to an election. This condition
necessarily compels the dominant
party to be on the alert, lest some
spurious candidate may seek a nomi
