Cleanup Week Will Be
Perpetual in Madison
Especial to the Evening star.I

MADISON, May 27.-When the
Board of Health at a recent meet
ing decreed that there will be no
general "clean up week" this year
they acted on the supposition that
every week should be cleanup week.
Instead of esta blishing a certain linn
tied space for a general cleaning up,
the board instructed Health Inspec-
tor s. Fred Burnet to take note of
all places that needed renoyating
and see that they are kept tidy.
Mr.. Burnet has been working as
siduously along those lines, with the
result that Madison Is now looking
its prettiest.
The contention of the board in not
naming any special cleanup week
was that it was a large expense to
the town to provide carts and horses.
They thought also that Madison was
imposed upon last year by people
who could afford to have the dirt
removed at their own expense. The
result this year has been as good
ii not better, with much less ex'
pense.

m NEARBY LACKAWANNA TOWNS
Only Two Property-0wners
in Madison Object TO
Paying for New Curbing
Especial to the Evening star.I

MADISON. May 27.-Only two
property owners objected to being
assessed for the curbing on Main
street before the commissioners of
assessment in regular session last
evening. They were James w. Gard
ner, who appeared for the estates of
the late Mrs. jeremiah Baker and
the late James A. Webb, and Harry
Torrey, who owns about $50 feet of
property on that street Both these
men objected to paying for the work
until the curbs and cutters are put
in proper shape. They stated that
a great deal of cement work is brok-
en- and suggested that either the
work be done in proper style by
the borough or be assessed proper
tionately.
Street Commissioner Edward +.
Frenz interposed that the breaking
of the curbing was probably due to
an inferior grade of concrete being
used He stated that all along the
line there is broken curbing and gut
tering, and also suggested the same
as the other two men. Mr.. Frenz
owns property on this street, but he
stated that his curbing remains in
good shape.
Both Mr.. Torrey and the estates
which Mr.. Gardner represents have
done work on the curbs, which were
paid for out of their own pockets.
The Webb estate tore up an orna-
mental blue-stone gutter and curb
in order to have all the work uni
form, but, stated Mr.. Gardner, 1t
was better than that which was sup
Piled.
The amount to be assessed to the
property owners is $4,561.06 increased
by $3.50 for engineering fees, etc. The
Traction Company originally asked
for 81, 02565. This amount was dimin-
ished by S1,655.f9 for oil and sprink-
ling, moving poles and changing
wires, which brought the figure down
to S5,370.16. This was decreased con-
siderably by Borough Attorney C. A.
Rathbun, who settled for the amount
above mentioned.

BIG MEETING OF PROTEST
AGAINST CANAL POLICY
Congress Called Upon to Stand Firm
Against Demands of Great
Britain.

NEW YORK. March 21.-The proposed
repeal of the law giving American coast
wise vessels free passage through the
Panama canal was the subject of meet
ing last night which crowded Carnegie
Hail. Exception was taken by the speak
ers to the attitude of President Wilson.
They declared the Hay-Pauncefote treaty
| had been given too liberal an interpreta-
ton by the President and his supporters
In Congress, and that. yielding to the
demands alleged to have been made, this
country faced the possibility of having
the canal looked upon as an international
waterway, rather than an undertaking
due to American enterprise and money
Among the speakers were Supreme
Court Justice Samuel Seabury of New
! York, who presided; former Representa-
tive Charles f, Littlefield of Maine,
| Bourke Cochran and cambridge Colby of
New York.
Resolutions were adopted denouncing
| the proposed repeal of the exemption pro-
vision .'as a breach of the Monroe doc
| trine, carrying with it. by implication, the
recognition of the British claim that the
| canal is an international body of water
and not an American waterway, and the
| admission that it should in the future be
| subject to Anglo-American control
The resolutions commend the stand
taken by Senator O'Gorman and call
| upon Congress to repudiate decisively
| these insolent demands of a foreign power
and to stand like adamant against all at
! tempts thus to surrender the vital inter-
ests Of our country
