The rates under the new parcels post
law which goes into effect the first of
next January are liberal enough for a
start and it is provided moreover that
the postmaster general may modify
them with the consent of the inter-
state commerce commission if it is
shown, after the law has been in OPP
Grafton long enough for test, that
there is need for revision. It is pos
sible that the same powers which have
SO strepuously opposed the passage of
the law will seek to create sentiment
against it after it goes into effect and
before the new system gets to working
smoothly, but the people will be con
tent to wait for actual figures from
the postoffiee department. before pass
ing judgment.

CONDUCTORS DISCHARGED
G. and M. e. r. Spoilers Find Con-
ductor's Accounts Don't Tally.

Because their cash receipts did not
compare with the amount Of receipts
indicated by the registers in their cleo
trio cars, five conductors of the Chicago
and Milwaukee Electric Railroad were
discharged by the officials of the COM
pany.
"Spotters have been placed on all
the electric cars that pass through
Kenosha.
One conductor, it is alleged, was dis
charged because his register indicated
that he had taken in So cents which
had not been turned in at the end of
the day. Another conductor turned in
40 cents more than the register
indicated he should have sent to
the company.
A year or so ago fifteen conductors
of this company were discharged. The
officials of the company have called
large number Of their men on the car
pet and have given them talking to
that they will never forget. The of
icials do not prefer criminal charges
against any of their men-they merely
TEAM them.
A general feeling of dissatisfaction
it is said, exists among the employees of
the company. One conductor, who was
given his discharge last Monday, had
served as conductor on the road for
over twelve years. Another man had
served eleven years.

Summing it all up it may be said
that our prosperity is now as pro-
nounced as this country, or any other
country ever experienced. If you can
do anything, the whole world is
clamoring for your labor. If you have
anything to sell, you have but to make
the fact known to find buyer. What
more can be expected2 Yet the people
are restless, n every hand mutter-
ings of discomfort are heard. The man
who is earning good wages, living like
prince, enjoying all the advantages
of the greatest time and country in the
world, is miserable because he is not
able to own automobiles and steam
yachts. Had the laboring men of two
generations ago looked forward TO a
time like this "a time when they
would live.in house which they would
then have called palaces-when all the
advantages of modern hfe-railways,
elecCrlcIty, education, amusement-all
that goes to make up the fullness of
this marvellous age-would be at their
beck and call-they would have little
dreamed that with the attainment Of
such ends would come a growing disap-
pointment. Yet it is so. Having more
than ever before, the people are APP
parently more dissatisfied. But before
doing anything that will put in ieop-
ardy the things we have it would be
well if every man who has to live by
his labor would stop and think SEN
sIbly for few minutes. 1t is barely
possible that the change might benefit
him; the chances are hundred to one
that any change would be for the
Worse-Wausau Record Herald.

REBUILD HALF OF TOP.
Council Decides on Work to be Done on
the Outlet of the Trunk Sewer.

Following meeting of the common
council as committee of the whole the
committee on streets and alleys has de-
cided to rebuild the west half Of the
top over the outlet of the trunk sewer
and Jacob Eifer has started the work
of replacing this portion of the top.
The west half failed to stand the test
the city demanded. The east half of
the outlet stood the test, but there were
some of the aldermen who held that it
would be wisdom to rebuild this at the
same time. However, it was held that
the contractor might have a claim
against the city if the east portion of
the work was condemned and as he has
bond on file to guarantee the work
for year this work will not be touch
ed. Several of the members of the
council declared that this work would
not stand up for the year and should
this prove the fact the city would re-
build it at the cost of the contractor or
his bondsmen. 1t is not planned to
put any railing about the top of the
outlet and it is probable that the top
will be covered with earth.

OLD TIMERS MEET DEFEAT
Many New Men Named to Have Charge
Of the Machinery of the Old Political
Parties in the Counties Committees
to be Re-organized at Once.


and Democrats county committees is
made possible by the official canvass
Of the votes cast at the primary cleo
ton which was started this morning
and the report from the various towns
and wards show that there will be
many changes in the make up of both
the Democratic and Republican com
mittees. Chairman r. V. Baker of the
Republican committee was not elected
as a member of the committee and
John G. Slater, at present chairman of
the Democratic committee, received
one vote in the third ward and was
tied with half dozen other Democrats
for the place on the committee. The
vote on committeeman was decidedly
small and for the most part the sue
cessful members of the committee re-
ceived less than half dozen votes. In
several of the wards but one vote was
cast for committeeman and in the fifth
ward no Democratic committeeman
was elected. Under the provisions of
the law the committee elected at the
primaries will serve for term of two
years.
The reorganization of the committees
is regarded as important and these
bodies will have charge of the man

Louis R. Grosvenor of the First
ward, who was secretary of the Re
Publican committee was reelected on
Tuesday and he will at once call the
members of the new committee for re-
organization. It is probable that a
similar call will be sent out by Chair
man John G. Slater of. the Democratic
committee. The two committees will
be forced to decided between voters

CLEANING UP
 FLOOD DEBRIS
Thousands of Men Are Rapidly Digging Denver Out of the Ruins in Which Sundays Cloud burst Involved It.
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

DENVER. July 15-With upwards of 15.0O0 men working. repairing the damage done by the flood yesterday, and an army of individuals and city employees clearing away the wreck age of buildings and bridges, and rescuers searching the banks of Cherry creek for further possible vic tins, Denver is rapidly assuming normal conditions.
 Throughout the day all the rail- roads entering Denver have been rushing additional labor from the state and Kansas. Hundreds of the unemployed of Denver have been given work on private enterprises which were demolished or badly dam aged. The reported break of Sastle- wood dam. emanating from unknown sources about noon today, caused consternatiOn in the city. and per sons along the lOWlands were warned. Scores of families moved their ef- fleets before authentic information was obtained that there was no dan ger of the dam breaking.
 All danger of further floods is be- lieved to be past and the water in the creek is rapidly receding. The creek, which is ordinarily three feet wide. is still running with three feet of water from bank to bank. but further danger is not feared
 The packing house district prob ably suffered most of any of the in dividual interests. Motors and other machinery for refrigeration in the plants were put out of commission The whOlnSal le districts also suffered extensively, cellars containing con consigned shipments of fruit and commodities being flooded The az gregate damage in the whole district is impossible to estimate accurately.
 Lew Wallace, who was reported missing, appeared today uninjured.

AUTO
 STRIKES TEAM
Gar of J. Van Mosservelde Collides With Hack and Two Men Are Painfully Hurt at Second Avenue and Adams Street.

Two men are badly stove up as to ribs and ankle and team of hack horses missing as the result of a col lisiOn between an automobile driven by Van MOsserVelde and the cab of James Cooper of the Walker Stables last night at 12:30.
 <, The accident happened at the corner of Adams and Second avenue or near
 by when the car speeding eastwarl struck the hack going in the opposite direction. A. T. Glen who was riding in the back of the machine was thrown
 forward sustaining broken ribs and
 bruises of minor character from the
 impact Art Gibson fell from the seat of the hack and his ankle was badly sprainej when he struck the pavement.
 Cooper driver of the team was slightly
 bruised and his horses lost when they
 broke from the harness anl ran east out of sight on Adams. Chase and an
 unknown man in the auto were unhurt
 Other cabs were called immediately
 the alarm was turned in and Gibson
 and Glen carried to the office of Dr.
 Moncal on North Second avenue. Af- ter being tended, Glen was taken to the Sisters Hospital and Gibson to his rooms where he will be confined for some time with the painful dislocation of his right ankle. Glen, it was learn | ed is from Iowa recently and came down from Ray only a day or two ago. l Van Mosservelde. driver of the car recently became resident of the val | ley, having come from Belgium to ln- vest in Orange lands nearby. His story | is that he was on the right side of the street and the horses of the hack | wheeled in front of the lights of the car He claims he tried to stop and to | avoid the collision but the front of the auto struck one of the horses and the f team broke loose.
 L. The story of those on the cab, and l the version that seems borne out by the ! marks on the street is that Cooper was ! driving down the right center of Adams 1 when the auto speeding somewhat | swerved toward the horses.

AMERICAN SUPPORT
 OF ENGLISH PROTEST
Senators Root and Burton Speak Against the Free Passage of
 Coastwise Vessels
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

WASHINGTON, July 15.-Great States has no right under the Hay Pauncefote treaty to pass her own coast wise vessels through the Pana- ma canal while it collects tolls from British or other foreign ships. found support in the senate today In op- cning the fight over the Panama can al bill sent to the senate by the house, in which the free toll provi- sion is an important feature, Senators Burton, of Ohio, and Root of New York, outlined the ground upon which the enemies of free American ships will fight the battle.
 Both senators said Great Britain had surrendered important rights at Panama, held under the former Clay ton Bulwer treaty, for the pledge of equal treatment of all ships, given by the United States in the existing Hay Pauncefote treaty. The contrO- Versy hinges on whether the United States in her pledge to treat ships of all nations" equally, meant to in clude vessels owned by her own cit izens
 Root said The Hague court would be called upon to settle this issue finally, if the United States passed the bill with the free tolls provision, which he characterized as an "un- justfiable discrimination" against oth- CT nations. The decision against this country would involve the United States in repayment to the owners of foreign ships of millions of dol lars taken in canal tolls. he said.

VALUABLE CAMEOS
 FOUND BY BALkE
Bake and Son Will Tour Old Mexico, Where They Will Gather Rare
 Objects of Art

For hundreds of years cameos have been sought after and worn by people of culture and refinement, and today the people educated along the lines of ancient art are even securing Europe for genuine cameos The req son for this is that genuine cameOs are very rarely found in this country and then fabulous prices are paid for them. But MT. Bake. the owner of the Big Curio Store, on his tour of Europe last summer secured large number of the genuine article and has. put them on sale at his store.
 These cameOs being very antique are made of shells, stone and corral and the carved figures are something very rare in this country. These rare works of art were probably made over one hundred years ago and cannot be compared with the cheap ones made today.
 MT. Bake collects almost all of his valuable pieces himself and the latter part of this week he and his son Otto will leave for Old Mexico where they will secure more valuable pieces of art. Otto has accompanied his father on almost all of the lat ter's tours since he was about two years old and now goes with him into the wfIds of foreign countries.
 The two will go to Guadalajara to visit the Convent of the Sacred Heart where MT. Bake has secured the fin est pieces of drawn work for the last twenty-five years They will also visit the opal mines at Queratlaro where the rarest of Mexican opals are found Queratlaro is historically noted as being the place where Elm peror Maximilian and his two gen erals were shot by Mexicans in the revolution against France.

BULL MOOSE PARTY

Roosevelt Will Consent to No Sort
 of Compromise.
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCHl

OYSTER BAY, July 15.-The for nation of distinct and independent party and not the capture of the republican party is the course Roose- welt has laid out for himself tonight He took issue flatly with his sup porters who have advanced a propO- sitiOn for effecting an agreement with the republican organization in some states, through which, under certain conditions. the strength of the Roose- welt following might be thrown be- hind Taft.
 The colonel will have none of it Il shall not acquesce," he said. No compromise" is to be the battle cry. Roosevelt dictated this statement of his pOsitiOn
 T see that in Pennsylvania and Maryland the proposal has been made that identical Roosevelt and Taft electors run and the electors who are chosen cast their votes for which ever, Taft or myself, gets the most votes. I trust that no such plan will be adopted. l claim that in every primary state where the primaries carried for me and where the etec- tors have been nominated, that as matter of the highest obligation those men are bound to vote for me, for will be the nominee of the over whelming majority of the rank and file of the republican party. Tafts nomination represents nothing but successful dishonesty of the Barnes Penrose and Guggenheim machine and is not binding upon any honest republican,"
 Roosevelt then goes on to say, making his appeal to all progress sives, that no matter what their past affiliations may be, but who gen erally believe in progressive princ- pies, "Who believe as 1 dO that both the old party organizations are com pletely under the domination of the bosses and special privilege. that both the Chicago and Baltimore platforms are fundamentally unprOgressive and reactionary platforms, showing that it is hopeless to expect from either of the old parties under present con- ditions any real, far reaching pro- gressive movement"
 The colonel added that he was willing to have the same electors on both the republican and the national progressive tickets IS long as his supporters would not agree that the entire electoral vote of the states should go to Taft if the republican ticket should receive the greater number of votes. Under such condi- | tions any elector on a republican tic ket who wishes to vote for Roosevelt would be free to do SO
