RESPONDED To
FIRE ALARM

The fire departments from both
sides responded to a fire alarm at
about $50 Monday evening. The a
larm was short and sweet, three
blasts of the whistle Both depart
ments made a quick get away. In
fact the turn out was about the quick
est on record. The short alarm and
the quick turn out caused people to
think it was a fake alarm-weu it
was in a way. The fire was a nice.
little bonfire up on Baker street. The
firemen, went right up, turned around
and walked right away again. The
boys from the west side had all the
best Of it for they enjoyed a nice
smooth roll over the new Grand
avenue pavement. Some of them
said afterward that they seemed to
be riding on one of the new auto fire
trucks.
Their pleasant dream of an auto
fire truck lasted until they hit Sc
cond street, then they came to eartI
and realized that they were still in,

PAVING CON.
PLETED AND
LOOKS WELL

The work of paving has ceased for
this year. The new pavement on
Grand avenue was thrown open Sun
day. That part of the street that
has been paved presents an attrac-
tive appearance 1t quite a con-
trast to what had been before Many
compliments have been heard regard
ing the street and much satisfaction
is felt with it. Many have been hear
to say that they hoped the city would
go on and complete the work so we'll
begun and pave all the way to the
depots. During the latter paart of
last week, a representative OF the
city of Portage was in the city look
ing at the paving work. He express
ed himself as highly pleased with the
paving and asked Mr.. Arnold, the
American Asphalt and Rubber Co.'S
and talk to the council at that city.
Portage is contemplating doing sever.
al miles of paving next season and
judging from the impression the Poi
tage man got here, Portage will have
some paving done like that on Grand
avenue.
Mr.. Arnold wanted to do a first
class job and it looks as though he
had succeeded. Mayor Cohen took
a great interest in the work and was
"on the job" pretty near all the
time.

the symptoms of infantiIe paralysis,
Just as they appear in children afflict-
ed with the disease. Some of the
monkeys died. DR.. Rosenau took tis-
sues from the monkeys thus infected
by the flies and injected them into
a third set of monkeys, which there
upon developed the disease. A meth.
Cd for eradication and control of in

the hands of sanitarians. It is be-
lieved that the necessity of quaran-
tine is thus relieved, and that it will
suffice to place a bed net around

Of great fortunes in it's hands, the
trust company win become the most
absolute and most autocratic power
the world has ever known.
Two remedies seem to be feasible.
One is rapidly progressive inheri-
lance tax which shall insure the pub
lies large participation in all huge
fortunes. The second is the repeal of
laws permitting the promotion of
trusts of more than few years dura-
ton, thus forcing the responsibility of
wealth upon those who inherit it.
The American people have no desire
to destroy incentives to the creation
Of wealth or to deprive the family Of
rich man, of a generous share of his
fortune.
But something must be done to pre-
vent the establishment of an endowed
class OF idlers.

The Negro Delegate
Is Having His Day.

In Chicago the negro delegate is
holding the balance Of power. One
negro Republican from the south is
equal to thousands OF white Republic
ans in certain northern states. The
he is profiting financially as result
we would not dare to say, but he must
be enjoying the occasion immensely.
The Journal does not have the fig-
ures at hand, but 1t Is certain a large
number Of the southern delegates to
the Republican national convention are
negroes. They have right to be
there, and Florida for one is not
ashamed Of them-they are the real
Republican party in Florida and the
party should be represented by the
true and the faithful
Negroes have a reputation Of being
without very high sense of honor
and 1t is the general opinion. whether
1t is deserved or not, that principle
with them is a mater Of money or po-
litical position and they are govrrned
largely by those two things.
II such is really the case they will
come away from Chicago not only rich
in experience, but rich in this worlds
goods.
Both sides Of the convention have
accused the other Of fraud in Chi
cago, and in some cases negro dele
gates have reported attempts of lead
ers to buy their influence and vote.
There must be some truth in the
charges. and in addition to this there
must be guilt ON both sides or the at
tempts to bride would be prosecuted.
Since the civil war the negro has
been factor in national elections, but
this is the first time he has held the
balance of power. They are nearly
all pledged to President Taft as a re-
suit Of machine politics, and If money
counts with them they ought to gather
large sums from both sides and vote
for the last man who pays them.
1t must be a source of pleasure to
John Stillman and other reformed Re
publicans now in Florida to know that
they are not lined up with a party
where the negroes hold the balance OF
power. However, the Democrats of the
state have no objection to the ne
groes participating in the Republican
convention.
This is the day Of the negro delegate
and The Journal hopes he is enjoyins
IT to the limit
