METHODIST PARSONAGE 2
 EXPERIENCES BLAZE

This forenoon about eleven fifteen a fire alarm was sent in from the box near the Anvil bakery. First avenue west. that proved to he a fire mp at the Methodist parsonage inst back of the church
 The fire was eXtinguished by the time the department reached the scene Of the blaze thanks to the prompt action on the part of Rev Baldwin. who rushed into the burning kitchen that was all ablaze and with a small fire extlnguisher. got the better of the fire. then finished his work with water.
 The fire department were there within few seconds after the alarm was turned In. the condition of the streets being such that fast time could not be made. A string of horse was laid from First avenue west to the parsonage but neither that nor the chemical was required. the blaze be- ing out having done perhaps fifty to a hundred dollars worth of damage
 To representative of the Nugget Rev. Baldwin related the following pertaining to the fire and its cause
The Nome daily nugget., 1912-02-29

There was a five gallon can crude oil sitting on the back Of the stove getting heated preparatory to mixing the same with coal and ashes for help ins out our coal shortage. There was q red hot fire going in the stove at the time and in some manner or other the can ignited. The women folks became excited threw water upon the blaze that spread the oil adding fuel to the flames While the women went to turn in an alarm l threw out the can of oil then grabbed fire extinguishe- called the "Waukesha dry Powder Ex- tinguisher" and commenced to fight the flames with it The kitchen was all a blaze at the time. but the ex- tinguisher did the work. 1t just put the fire out. then with the help of wa ter finished the job"
 We understand the heating of cans Of crude oil is common practice here in Nome so it will mix better with the ashes and coal: but the close call the parsonage had today should act a. a warning tO people not to take too many chances with heating oil.

THE FORCES RANGED AGAINST
ROOSEVELT.

Col. Roosevelt gathers all the spears
10 hits own breast like Arnold von
Wlnkelr1ed at-@fhs Battla of sempach,
Nobody in this campaign ds lighting
anybody but. Roosevelt Taft forcss
and Wilson forces are making :abso-
lutely common cause against him. The
Taft men say nothing. against Wilson
or the Democratic cause, and Wilson
and his followers scarcely mention
Taft. They know that he Is a dead
ISSUE" Both devote all their efforts
to attacking Roosevelt and the Pro-
gressive cause. They constitute in
reality only one' party-the Taft-Wil-
son party, the party Of the bosses.
1t Is the samet way with the Social
lists. All that Is good in Socialism can
be obtained much more promptly and
effectively through the Progressive
movement than dit could be Through
Socialism, becauee the American peo-
| pie have a degree Of confidence in a
Progressive movement of their own
that they could not possibly have IN
an imported system like Socialism
Socialism has some excellent ideas, but
the organized movemfns is interna-
tional and anti-patriotic. 1T could not
be otherwise. But the American peo-
pie are intensely patriotic. When
they want social reforms, they will
get them through a party movement
of their own, under The stars and
rtripes.
The process Of centering all attack
on the Progressive leader Is good for
tho cause. It gets the eggs OF the
reactionaries all into one basket,
where' they can be smashed easily. IT
proves what the Progressives assert,
that the combinations and the bosses
nave but one interest, and that is 20
prevent the people from getting hold
Of the government 1t affords the pe0-
pie concentrated view Of the inhu-
rlces that are ranged against them.

materially to the probability of that
Gibraltar Of Republicanism going
Democratic this year.
Senator Bourne has not made q
public declaration as yet, but is ex-
pected to do so within a few days.
AS the father Of the presidential pr
mary plan Senator Bourne will take
the position that the people have ex-
pressed their preference for Roose-
a"eat in the presidential primaries
this year, wherever such prim aries
were held, aid that it is the duty OF
every advocate OF presidential pri-
