Garrison Wanted Co. Division

In the last issue the Garrison
Independent it spoke of the pet
measure, we had to divide the
county. 1t has been well known
that the people there have been
trying to get division for years
and they claim the ones III the
south end have been OPP
posed to it, and es-
pecially the people who hive ut
Washburn and in this neighbour
hood. Now the first time that
a Square county proposition was
presented it shows that this ac-
QUESTION was wrong. The voters
at Underwood, Washburn and
other places nearby gave a
big majority for county division.

willing to divide on square lines.

editorials which yer published

and might as well be taken into
consideration while, there is a
chance Of getting an equitable
division-as soon as Max, CARR
son, and the other northern town
forget anything but the lasting
enmity to the scheme which the
south part has always had-the
better.
The editorial in The Washburl

NAVAL tue IS HARD
and fast IN THE ICE
WENT TO RESCUE or ICE BOUND
BOATS AND GOT CAUGHT
HERSELE.

BONNIE BAY, y. f. Feb. 1.-THE
American naval tug Potomac, which
came to these Watetrs to rescue two
herring fishing crafts caught in the
ice at Bay OF Islands, is eripped so
firmly in an ice floe herself that the
chance Of her getting away before
spring is considered small
Heavy ice has become packed into
the gulf Of st. Lawrence, south to
Cabot Strait, and while continued
easterly winds might break it up, so
that the Potomac could make a near
by harbor, mariners believe there is
little likelihood that she would be able
10 get clear. The prevailing winds
are northwest.
The first officer and others of the
tugs crew walked ashore to Lobster
Head light station today They re-
ported her hard and fast three miles
off Rocky Harbor. All The SO men Of
the Potomac are well, but coal and
provisions are running low. In order
TO replenish their supplies the landing
party came to Bonne Bay tonight and
tomorrow will drag sled loads Of food
back over the ice.
The crews of the Francis Willard
and the Hiram Lowell, the two
schooners which we're caught in the ice
at Bay Of Islands, remain on board
but are considered in no danger, as
they can reach shore over the ice.

AT THE THEATERS
GRAND-MlTINEE AND NIGHT

If ever Il play will give an audience
its moneys worth it will be "The Pink
Lady," which comes TO the Grand
Tuesday Feb 17th. Rich and warm il
is one Of the best musical offerings Of
a decade and when an the ephemeral
nonsense and soulless music that mas
querades under that title have been
forgotten. the haunting melodies OF
"The Pink Lady" vii be vividly and
pleasantly remembered. The music
las substance, richness and warmth
with a pretty swing and sweet insin-
uation that simply pervades ones
whole being. The authors had ideas
md gave them not only musical form
but invested their emotion with light
laughter and love- avoiding the bette
noir ofs many-musical medeocrity.
