The election on next Tuesday, when
the people must pass on the proposed
amendments to the constitution, is OF
great Importance. There are Al Of
these amendments and they deserve
the careful study of every good citi-
zen. We believe that 1t was mistake
to call the election at such an early
date, giving the people so little time
to consider the different proposals, but
this can not now be helped and every
one should study them carefully, so
that he can vote intelligently. Some
people are advising everyone who is In
doubt about any Of the proposals to
vote mo-, others are advising anyone
In doubt TO vote 'yes". We do not
think either advice is good. Any per.
son, who is In doubt about an amend
ment, has but one logical course to
follow and that is, not to vote on that
amendment. A person, who has not
made up his mind on aquestion should
not vote on that question. 1t is not
fair or sensible thing to vote against
something you do not understand
neither is it a fair or sensible thing to
vote for something you do not under
stand. The only fair or sensible
action is not to vote. We hope, how
ever, that there will be very few people
who will have given so little thought
and study TO the different prop Jsals
that they have not made up their
minds on every question. 1t may e
some trouble and inconvenience to
take the time to study all Of these
amendments, but their Importance
will justify it. But If you don't un'
derstand an amendment, don't vote.

TWO BATTLESHlPS ARE
SEVERELY DAMAGED.
Nebraska Ran on Uncharted Shoals
While Connecticut Broke Shaft
Both Are Ordered to Yards for Re-
pairs.

Washington, d. c., Aug. 9.-The bat
tleship Nebraska ran on an unchartec
.sEoal near Newport, R. l., last nigh,
and was so seriously damaged thai
she has been ordered to dry dock al
Boston navy yard.
The flagship Connecticut about the
same time broke her starboard crank
shaft and has been ordered to Phila
delphia for repairs.
The navy department immediately
ordered the Nebraska to the Bostor
navy yard for examination, 1t is be
lieyed the ship has been seriously in
lTred and it may be necessary to puI
her out OF commission, replacing hel
in the fleet with one of the reserve
battleships.
An investigation will be made tc
locate the uncharted shoal, the exist
ence of which in waters so crowded
with shipping is great surprise tc
naval officers.
The Connecticut's accident was not
serious, 1t resemb1ed that of last
week to the battleship Mississippi
The crank shaft of the starboard en-
sine broke.
Newport. r. l., Aug. 9.-Captain
William NJ. Caperton, commandant OF
the Narragansett Bay Naval station

Of the Atlantic fleet, and that no
mention was made of any accident to
the Battleship Nebraska, and Flagship
Connecticut.
So far as known. no wireless mes
sage concerning the Nebraska or
Connecticut has been picked up By
any Of the wireless stations along the
Rhode Island coast.
1t is thought here that the fleet is
somewhere off Block Island.
