Special to Times-Republican.
Grinnell. April 11.-There was an un-
usually small attendance at the Broth
erhood meeting Tuesday evening at
the Congregational church, but the in
terest in the speaker and his subject
was very marked and the discussion
following the address was decidedly
lively. Rev. P. F. Marstons topic was
"a Square Deal in the Business World.
or The Business Man and the Church"
and he covered the ground Of industrial
inequalities, social injustice, religious
lukewarmness and self sufficiency, and
political enslavement thru the path of
special privilege, as fully as the time
would permit.

ITO the people of the United States.
without regard to past differences. who

BOOTH BLAMES FIRE CHIEF
Says Inefficient Department and Action
of Water Company Cause Big Loss

says lneff1c1ent department eho Rcuon
Of Water Company Cause Big Loss
In an article printed in the ToDopah
Bonanza, W. W. Booth, editor Of the
Bonanza. severely criticizes the action
of Chief Sinclair of the Tonopah fire
department, and states that the inef.
~iciency of the head of the department
lie directly responsible for the heavy loss
occasioned by the recent fire in the
southern mining camp. Booth censures
in strong terms the paid fire department
of Tonopah for what he characterizes as
its utter lack of Judgment" and roasts
the United Water Company for zap.
parent failure to comply with the re-
quirements OF its contract with the
town and county"
Although the fire house is located but
three blocks from the origin Of the fire
Booth claims that it was IL minutes
after the alarm was sounded before the
department appeared.
Booth claims that it was the refusal
of Chief Sinclair aud his men to make
any effort to save buildings adjoining
the Knights of Pythias structure, when
the latter building could plainly be seen
TO be doomed, hat allowed the fire to
spread to other structures and cause the
great loss that was occasioned. He
states that when the water was turned
on from the hydrants it did not have
sufficient force to carry to the second
story of the burning buildings, a dis
lance of not more than 16 feet.
ITO sun up the whole thing" says
Booth. 1.-The fire department is appar-
emily to blame for wanton ineficiency
and the Tonopah United Water Com
pany is also to be censured for its
method"

THE PARCELS POST

There are rum0rs OIL ~oiscontent
throughout the country in various To-
calities at the delay Of Congress in pass.
ing the parcels post bill, and expressions
are noted from time to time and from
different localities voicing the suspicion
that the express companies will yet
head of the project. or that they will be
able to so shape the legislation az to
make it abortive.
Il is not likely. however, in view OF
the powerful Influences at work. that
the project of the parcels post can be
either shelved or made ineffective by
crooked legislation. The Bourne bill. 30
called, is endorsed by Postmaster General
Hitchcock, and together they have form
ulated a measure that is strictly in ac-
cord with international postal laws and
regulations. and that will undoubtedly
be effective if passed. and there is said
to be good hope for the passage of this
bill at the present session of Congress.
The provisions of the Bourne measur
rs Endorsed by Postmaster General
Hitchcock. are as follows:
Postal rates on parcels vary with distance,
thus protecting local merchants and competing
with express companies.
Third and fourth classes of matter are com.
bined.
A special rate Of l cent an ounce up TO four
ounces is provided for circulars and small
packages of goods.
Rates are provided as follows:
Local, city and rural delivery only, 5 cents
for the first pound, and l cent for each add
tional pound.
Within 50-mile zone. 6 cents for first pound
and 2 cents for each additional pound.
Within 2O0-mile zone, z cents for FIRST pound
and 8 cents for each additional pound.
Within 5O0-mile zone, s cents for the first
pound and 4 cents for each additional pound,
Within 1000-mile zone, 8 cents for the first
pound and 5 cents for each additional pound.
Within 20oo-mile zone, IL cents for the first
pound and 10 cents for each additional pound,
Outside 1000 mile zone. IL cents for the first
pound and IL cents for each additional pound
These rates are based upon q careful com
rsxation Of the actual cost of collecting. dis
tribating and delivering packages, plus actua
cost of transportation
Weight limit, IL pounds, and maximum
charge IL cents-the international limit anC
rate.
There can be no doubt but that q
measure of this kind would be of very
great benefit and ad vantage to th'
people of the United States. says th'
Salt Lake Tribune. We already allow
parcels such as these to go through oul
mails to foreign countries and TO com
to the United States and pass through
our mails from foreign countries. 1t il
ridiculous that we do this for foreigner
and refuse to do it for our own citizens
It lie an inconsistency that is 80 glarinl
that a remedy cannot be much longel
delayed.

AS TO MINING EXPERTS

1t lie not known what the mining ex-
perts have done to Will O. Higgins. but
in his column in the Salt Lake Mining
Review he touches them up in the fol-
lowing entertaining fashion:
"Some experts are born, some are
made. and some are turned out by COL
leges and universities" continued the
prospector. "But it is only the ones
who are born that are any good. The
rest of them become famous for the many
good mines they turn down. 1t was the
made-to-order expert that turned down
Tombstone in the early days. 1t was
the same order of ducklins that passed
up the Silver King mine in Arizona, and
the United Verde in the same State.
The same nifty fellows condemned
Cripple Greek, Tonopah and Goldfeld;
and. even now, they are swarming over
the country spelling big mining deals
and losing big money for their clients ;
and it is a wonder, judging from the
black eyes 80 many mining districts are
getting from them every year, that the
industry keeps mp it's lick 30 we'll. and
that so many new mines are developed
into big producers and dividend-payers.
OF course, this statement is as perplex-
ing to you as IL is to the man Of Q
who really wants to buy q promising
property but. any man with nails in his
shoes and a grease smear across his face
can readily solve the riddle. Ask him
and he will tell you that it is the man
who works in the mine, who broke the
first ore from the outcrop. and who knows
the formation like a book. that is the
real expert. And he will tell You also
that it was an intelligent miner and
not an expert, who induced Senator
Clark to buy the United Verde; that it
was the success OF leasers which pre-
vailed upon Philadelphia capital to in
vest in Tonopah, and that 1t was a
~prospector who first commended
Goldfeld prospects to Eastern capitalists;
and that ell of these mines have made
good. Notwithstanding the fact that
buyers were duly warned by expert
and employees that they we're
being handed gold bricks"

To help to run the town,
If a lassie gets the ballot,
Need a laddie frown?
Many a laddie has the ballot
Not so bright as l.
Many a laddie votes his ballot.
Overcome with Rye.

Every laddie has the franchise,
Name, they say, haze l.
Hands and hearts and brain for

Let the lassies try.
If a lassie works for wages,
Toiling all the day,
When her work the laddie's equals
Give her equal pay.

Surely you'll agree
That a body earns the franchise,
Whether HE or SHE.
