Federal ofilcehoiders In Richmond
view with eouanimity the report that
the Democratic In the United States
senate will hold up all appointments
that may DO made BY President Taft
before the expiration OF his term OF
office, as none Of them will have serv-
ed the terms for which they have been
appointed until months after March
4th.
Most Of the officials in the federal
building here have been named for
terms which do not expire until De-
cember, 1913, or January. 1914. The
terms Of none expire until a. late a.
November OF next year. Accordingly
it makes no difference to them wheth-

Walls GIVE FORTH MANY
STREAMS or
WATER.

The flrut thfne you know, SA1d
SubchAirman NitdhelI, Of the COUNCIL
committee on watef, sitting for Chnar-
man Mills. last night At mestine
OF that committee. "we viii have ~.
other Johnsteysn Hood. !" I
This expression WAS bro4Klst about
BY the diseussion Of the condition of
the Old Reservoir.
It Ma stated by the subchAirniAn
and several other members Of the
committee that the Old Hescrvoir n
In q dsplorable state.
d There are. according to the com.
mitteemen and the superintendent,
leaks to the north and to the south
sides Of the walls. and It was detcrs
mined to ask for an emergency appro-
priation Of $4,000 to make necessary
repairs In order to avert any such ca
larnity - that susgested By MT.
Mitchell
city Engineer Boiling said. that
many years ago he had q similar con-
ditton to contend with. He had to
get his men down into the bottom OF
the big reservoir and patch up many
holes
superintendent Davis said that q
few years ago he had TO do the same
thing.
1t was stated that every time the
reservoir II relieved OF the settlement
OF mud. which accumulates at the
rate of one inch year, the bottom
Of the reservoir starts to leaking. 1t
was shown that the mud prevented
the leaks
In following up this natural Infer
ence. the superintendent and the city
engineer suggested to the committee
that the entire interior be improved
by . coating Of concrete for base,
with asphalt joints, the whole to cost
in the netghborhood Of $4,000.
This resolution was sent into coun-
ell last night, and went to the finance
committee. II 10 probable that the
finance committee will meet next week,
at which time the appropriation witt
likely be made.
In the meantime Superintendent DA-
Wis will keep his eye on the reservoir
and keep on catastrophe.

BERMUDA TARIFF
INTEREST WILSON
HEARS LOT ABOUT SEED POTA-
TOES, BUT NOTHING ABOUT
ONIONS.

HAMILTON, BERMUDA, Dec. 2.
Governor Wilson attended the
Bermudian house assembly this after
noon and heard the annual tariff
discussion in the course Of which seed
potatoes were proposed for the free
list and turnlps for an tncreaAs duty
to encourage the farmers l. ne de-
bate was similar to that in which
Governor Wilson, AS president will
soon participate in at Washington.
The Governor also heard the report
OF the estimated tariff receipts. lis
tening intently and following the items
from q printed schedule which had
been given to him.
He WAC finally addressed by the
speaker. Sir Thomas Watson. who ex-
pressed a hearty welcome and hoped
the distinguished guest would return
to Bermuda after, the expiration Of his
term as president Responding. Mr..
Wilson said:
Il had hoped might forget was
able to make a speech In Bermuda,
the extreme pleasure at the courtesy
extended to me and my great interest
In this city. ! was Just wondering
what would happen in the States II
We every year went over the tarin
items. There would be a continuous
performance which would exceed all
the theaters could afford In the way
Of amusement. Yet I cannot help
thinking the idea admirable because
it affords the house the opportunity
to review the changing conditions.
One OF your members has said he was
sorry ! happened upon 30 dull a

mentary procedure and admire

DR.. Owen of the Underwood headquar-

advised by the management of the st.
James hotel that they are getting the
of us and they have already let the
contract for decorations
We are expecting big crowds from
all over Alabama" said the doctor. "and
we want to urge that no one stay away
for fear that ample provisions have
not been made to take care of them
Baltimore Is preparing TO take care of
big crowds realizing that this will be
an epoch making convention. Not in
many years has the party's prospect
for victory been so promising and the
various candidates for the nomination
will have their supporters there In
large numbers. We are expecting
large delegations of Underwood sup
porters from Alabama, Georgia, Flor
ida. Mississippi and other states. and
we want them to know that we will
be prepared for them.
THE nominee of the Baltimore con-
vention will be the next President of
the United States and believing this
the convention will be largely attend
ed. We are receiving letters and tele-
grams every hour from enthusiastic
supporters who declare 1t their inten-
ton to be there and we want them all

fight won, I believe. beyond a doubt,
but we hope to have the presence of
a large number of our friends to share

tween labor organizations and rail-

unpleasant disagreements would then
se eliminated and the whole country
benefited thereby"

sion received the spontaneous congrat-
ulations Of the assemblage. Surgeons
