PROPOSES BOARD or PUBLIC
Welfare FOR SCHENECTADY
George r. Lunn. Socialist Mayor,
Would lnaugurate Novel Plan.

The mayor of Schenectady. N r.
George r. Lunn. elected last Novem-
Der by the Socialist party, believes that
he and the party are looked to for a
change In principles of government
such as is not expected to follow the
accession to power of one of the older
parties In an address to the city cOun-
Gil recently he recommended that as a
preliminary act there be created a
board Of public welfare. This he
thought especially appropriate because
the change expected is to give human
welfare precedence over business in
the activities of the government. His
idea of the purpose of such board be
explains as follows:
"A board like this. in order to serve
the city adequately. should unite in one
body for consistent action those city
officials who are most directly concern
ed with what may properly be called
the social interests of the city.
these officials would in my opinion
include the mayor the president of the
common council, the health officer. the
commissioner of charities. the superin,
tendent of schools. the commissioner
of public works and the secretary to
the mayor To these officials should
be added two citizens acquainted with
the city's problems and with the spirit
of modern social reconstruction. No
sex qualifications ought to be placed
against these appointments. in order
that the administration may be free
to enlarge the spirit of its work by en-
listing the services OF women
1.-THE problem which this board can
approach is. broadly speaking. the So
cial problem itself. the problem of So
ciety's neglect of it's human resources.
the problem of charging and enrich
ing the lives of the people. 1t should
become an agent of the city specifcal-
~ devoted to human welfare"
To carry out the purpose of this
board he believes social survey is
necessary In order to substitute facts
and acts for good intentions only
1.-The board might undertake child
welfare work. supplementing and CO.
ordina ting the duties of the health of
fee and the schools 1t could take up
the pressing work Of recreation-of
parks. Fairgrounds. dances. concerts,
social centers. festivals. gymnasiums.
swimming pools and moving picture
shsws: it could take steps toward beau
tifying the city and providing art ex
hihits: it could supervise skating Kinks.
tobogganing. municipal ice plants and
warehouses;: it could take up the pro
vision of free legal aid. the manage
ment of the employment bureau and
the introduction of greater efficiency
into city departments: it might super
wise libraries. extend their services and
bring them to greater usefulness"

Bridgeport, Conn.,. to Install Sanitary
Innovations In Schools.
AS soon as possible the new drinking
fountains which have been ordered by
the Bridgeport Conn, board of educa-
ton will be placed in the public
schools of the city for the use OF the
pupils. and another week should see
them installed.
Since the law prohibiting the com
mon drinking cup from being used IN
Connecticut on account of the ravages
of the great white plague" none has
been used in the public schools. The
new fountains. of which there are for
weight. are composed of five jets
combining into one. turn of a small
lever allowing the water to flow In
this manner the lips of the person
drinking touch nothing but the stream
of water. and all danger of carrying
tuberculosis germs is eliminated.
The price of the new fountains is ap-
proximately Sc. so that the innovation
is not an expensive one. but an exceed
ingly healthy one. Two will be placed
in each school.

a jury term until next fall.

Should the ratio thus far shown in

would indicate that Gov. Wilson
would carry more states than were
ever carried before by presidential
candidate.
Staid old New England is wobbling.
Maine and Connecticut seem at pres
ent moment almost certain for the
New Jersey governor. Vermont and
Rhode Island are in the balance both
with Wilson tendencies. Massaohu-
sets Is placed in the Wilson column.
New Hampshire alone Of the New

dent. None to the Bull Moose can
didate.
Indiana and Illinois are witnessing
spectacular fights. In Indiana the in
vestigators place Wilson in the lead,
with the Bull Moose running second.

lively collapsed, but that the Rou-'l

Barnes Group
viii Start

Manager J. c. Jenson, Of the
Barnes group of mines on Quartz
hill, reports that the financing of the
enterprise has been completed. De-
troit and Cleveland capitalists have
Joined with him in the enterprise.
Development operations will be
started at once. The Barnes, Gibson
and Stark County mines are include
in the deal. The principal operations
will be through the Barnes shaft
which is we'll equipped in the way OF
a commodiors shaft house, with all
necessary machinery for efficient
work. A 40 h. p. boiler and Sx10
geared hoist have been placed in
working order, ready to fire UP at q
moments notice. A switch from the
tram road runs directly under the
building, saving the reminding o!
ores. The shaft on the Barnes is
down $50 feet. The Gibson shaft is
100 feet deep, connecting with the
Stark County at the 125 foot level.
On the Barnes, levels are run every
100 feet At the 500-foot point, con-
nection is made with the Quartz Hill
tunnel for drainage and ventilation.
The Stark County lode produced
$3.50 100000 above the 150foot work
ings, below this is all virgin ground.
Al orosscut is to be driven from the
S50-foot level of the Barnes to inter
sect the Stark County lode at that
depth. The Rarnes vein has south
pitch, with the Stark inte-secting it
from the north. This is the reason
that the Stark has not been develop
ed to any great depth. This junction
was had ct depth of 80 feet from
surface. The combining OF these prop
critics eliminates all possibility sof
legal entanglements on account of
the veins crossing one another.
A drift will be run on the Barnes
to intersect the crossing Of the Hec-
1sr lssae-e it is expected a large body
c. ere Will be encountered.
Considering that the Stark County
lode alone has produced some 5000
tors of ore that averaged $50 per ton
including milling ores, the outlook for
this property under the able manage
ment Of Mr.. Jenson is more than
promising.

WILSON WILL SWEEP THE COUNTRY
Impartial Poll Taken BY Big Papers Concede
Democratic Victory.

In confederation of the stand OF the
Observer in this campaign, that Wood
row Wilson will be elected president
at the November election, the unbias-
ed investigation Of prominent Re
publican, Democratic and independ-
ent papers is arropos at this time.
This investigation, including a
straw vote in IL states, among which
= were New York, Pennsylvania. Ohio
and indiana, was conducted by the
New York Herald, Boston Globe. Gin
cinnati Enquirer, St. Louis Republic,
Chicago Record-Herald, Los Angeles
Times and the Denver Republican.
Wilson is now ahead in Colorado,
Ohio. Arizona, Nebraska, New Jer-
sey, Indiana. Maryland. Kentucky.
Maine, Missouri. California, Nevada.
Oklahoma and West Virginia, with a
shade the best of it in Maine, Massa-
chusetts and Iowa.
President Taft is assailed on all
sides by party disruption. Except in
New York, Woodrow Wilson finds
his following herding in one solid
harmony nearly everywhere. Indica-
tions at the present time point to
Democratic victory at the polls in
November
In the eleven states where the
straw votes were taken-New York,
Connecticut, Delaware, New Jersey.
Pennsylvania. Maryland, Ohio, Indi-
ana, Kentucky, West Virginia and
Wyoming-Governor Wilson ran fir-t
in nine. The Bull Moose candidate
was first in Connecticut aGa Pennsyl-
varia President Taft was third Iii 'il
but Ohio and Wyoming. In Ohio he
polled 942, as against SIS for the Enll
Moose ticket. Governor Wilson re-
ceived 1914. The fight in Chic is a
lively one. Herald reports show that
If the Pull Moose candidate can show
as much strength in November as he
developed at the recent primaries,
President Taft will lose his native
state.
New Jersey and New York are
placed in the Wilson column. Fig
ures obtained in the voting contest
show that the Bull Moose candidate
is pulling the great bulk of his
strength from the Republicans. They
show that Governor Wilson is win
ming more from the Republicans than
