GET RID OF THE SALOON.

At a hearing before the Detroit city
council upon a pending ordinance re-
stricting saloons in residence and fac
tory districts, representatives OF a
number of big industries gave their
views. Mr.. Henry M. Leland of the
Cadillac Motor Car company declared
that every saloon near the plant costs
the company $4,000 per year. But he
had another reason for urging restric-
ton.
. Here Is a friend of mine," he said,
with five growing boys. He has set.
tied in a clean neighborhood. pur.
chasing a house which he thinks will
be far from any saloon. This 10 a seri-
GUS matter with him-for he wants his
boys to grow up clean and sober, un-
affected by any such influence as a sa-
loon exercises over youth. But a sa-
loonman gets a transfer. and moves
in right next door to this mans five
growing boys. The men of the com
mon council should consider these par
ents-and, more, they should consider
these children"
All of the manufacturers affirmed
that drink lowered the efficiency OF
their employees in a marked degree
Only one man, says the Detroit News
spoke against the ordinance and he
was a pitiful specimen Of a man "un'
der the influence Of drink"

Hamill Thinks Wilson Will
Favor His Bill Providing
Pensions for Civil Service Men
IFrom a STAFF Correspondent

WASHINGTON, March 6.-At the
annual convention of the National AS
ISOLATION of Civil Service Employees,
which opened here today, appeared
Congressman James A. Hamill of
Jersey City, who brought Joy to the
hearts of the governments employees
by telling them that he was conf
dent that the President was in hearty
sympathy with his bill to provide
pensions for all those who work for
the government.
The representative from the Twelfth
district of New Jersey told the rep
resentatives of $4,000 civil service
employees in convention assembled
how he had visited President Wilson
in the White House offices on the
previous day, and had unfolded to him
the plans he had formulated for be-
showing pensions on those who re-
manned long enough in the service to
deserve them.
Representative Hamill, who is OPP
timistic by nature, filled the minds of
his hearers with that same spirit of
optimism as he described his talk
with the President. He would not go
so far as TO say that the President
Endorsed his plans in detail, or that
he had committed himself irrevoeably
to the civil service pension plan, but
he did say, so Mr.. Hammill declared,
that his mind was open" to the prob
lem

porters and swindling his victims out

paper. At Kingston he posed as
Irwin S. Cobb, a magazine writer,
and obtained money from DIR. S. H.
Sahler promising him that two New
York newspapers would print a full
page "write-up" of a sanitarium
which the physician conducts. Under
similar pretence he succeeded in
swindling the New Jersey under
talxer. Waterbury has been serving
prison sentences since 1899 when UNI
der like representations he swindled

MOORE CR|T|C|SES
WILSON'S POLICY
Republican Assemblyman In
PRODUCES Resolution on the
Mexican Situation.

TRENTON, March 6.-Assembly-
man Moore, of Mercer County, took
slap at President Wilson's Mexican
he introduced to the House of AS
sembly. Mr.. Moore does not approve
the stand the President has taken
and would have him show less weak
ness. Nevertheless he would not have
him plunge the country into war.
Mr.. Moore, who is a Republican,
merely wants him to take a stand
on the Monroe Doctrine, take the in
itiative and settle the matter by call
ing on the cooperation of other ma
lions.
Mr. Moore's resolution, which was
referred to the judiciary committee,
was as follows:
Whereas, A deplorable condition
exists in the Republic of Mexico, a
sister nation, involving the lives and
property of American citizens who
have made that country their homes,
and
Whereas, The state, not of war,
but of armed brutality and barbar-
ism. shocks the civilized world. and
Whereas, Pillage and murder, as
are common practises at our very
doorsteps, and
Whereas, The policy of watchful
waiting is encouraging such barbaric
practises, repugnant to peace and
civilization, and
Whereas, The permission on the
part of our government for the eX-
portation of arms and ammunition is
an encouragement to the continuance
of anarchy and murder in the repub-
lie of Mexico, and will afford instru-
ments of destruction which may be
used against us in case of hostilities,
and
Whereas, Our standing before the
world is one of humiliation and
shame, and
Whereas, A government that cam
not protect it's citizens abroad ceases
to be u government in name,
Resolved, That we protest against
the continuance of this policy as an
evidence of the nations weakness and
a sacrifice of the Monroe doctrine,
and
Resolved, That we believe this ma
ton should assume, under the Mon
roe doctrine, the leadership in set
Ting the Mexican troubles, not by
war, but by asking the cooperation
of other nations to restore order and
peace and law in our neighboring
republic"

NOrdica First American
Singer to Sing LOhengrin

In the little town OF Pennington,
Maine. Lillian Norton was born. Later
she became known to the world as
Madame Lillian Nordica. She studied
at the Boston Conservatory of Music.
and later in Italy, where her debut at
Brescia in LA Traviata" brought her
contracts for the Imperial Opera at
St Petersburg and Paris. She was
the first American prima donna to
sing Wagnerian roles at Bayreuth, the
musical shrine of the great composer.
She rendered Elsa in "Lohengrin" in
1894. During her operate and concert
career she was one of the most popu-
lar and sinsome personalities on the
musical stage. When the accompanist
struck the opening chards of HandePs
ANGELS Ever Bright and Fair" the
Song that commanded the heart power
of singer and composer, the song that
is sung again and again to enraptured
auditors, it was a signal for the audi
ence to settle down for a rare treat.
