MR.. EONTA STATES THE CASE FOR
TIE FTYPE5ENATES

at IS my deep rooted conviction tl1at all vho
have acted contrary to law and The ethics Of
patriotism should be punished vigorously.

tied on the mass"
'But if you, the minority, the hypherztes,
are being Disseminated against. what arc you
going to do about it?"
He smiled ironically and answered IN the
same quiet manner as throughout theinterview:
What are we going to do2 PROBABLY what
,rinorities always have done vhcn discriurnat-
ed against Our status is that Of al MINOR
ties However convinced IRE may be that the
majority is wrong, we must nevertheless sub

but Il is our duty to accept the verdict rather
than resort to extra-legal, TO violent, means OF
conversion. But / do most earnestly believe
that driving US in upon ourselves, segregsting
US, will only result in Strengthening, or at
least prolongaton, OF the very hyphenated
citizenship for which there is no room and no
occasion in this country"
Mr.. Konta spoke OF the complications which
have arisen over fires and other calamities
sustained by nunition factories engaged in
supplying the Allies with war material

Even Ihen carried on with infinite caution
accidents constantly happen. Only few days
ago we had news OF an explosion in German

that in mprovised factories, running day and

skilled labor, accidents are scarcely 70 be
avoided. There is no need OF attributing ma
hcious agency to them. Whether all the acct
dents which have occurred arc to be ascribed
to inevitable causes is, OF course, another mat
ter. We must patiently wait until the Depart
ment of Justice begins it's prosecutions"
The final question put was this: do you
believe that all American citizens, native or
foreign born, should place America first al
ways and under all conditions'"
AS for the attitude of the native American
on this point leave that for him to answer.
From the standpoint of the foreign born citi-
zen the answer is unhesitatingty YES"

City EleStion.

The City election was held here
Tuesday for the purpose of elect
ing a mayor and two councilmen,
as we'll as at the same time and
place to consider and ballot on the
water bond issue. The Business
Ticket, was elected by a substan-
tial majority, but the water bonds
lost by about l to 4. DR.. Price
was elected mayor, receiving 135
votes and Mr.. Peck 70. For coun-
cilmen, Mr.. Hays was elected with
143 over Mr.. Stoyer with 65, and
Mr.. Wilcox elected by 141 over
Mr.. McPhail with 81. Mr. Peck
for mayor on the Citizens ticket
with Mr.. Stoyer and Mr.. Nc. Phail
for ccuncilmen on the on the same
ticket, while DIR. Price for mayor
and Mr.. Hays and Mr.. Wilcox for
the council ON the Business ticket,
being the victors.
In the water bond issue, for
bonding the town with $45, 000
was lost, as it was considered by
many, or at least a large majority,
as being too much of an additional
tax for the present conditions OF
the town. Mayor Price and Coun-
cilmen Hays and Wilcox, will give
Saratoga as good an Administra-
ton as it has probably ever had.
and will unquestionably, carry the
town on a business basis.

L cant stop till 1 tell you of the
night effect of which the Tower
of Jewels is at once the center and
the climax of the effect. 1t is one
color at one moment and another

ton that one thinks of lovely
Jeweled laces, while the figures
make one imagine fairy land, fur
nished part of the ornamentation.
In one conr. a great globe upheld
by marble figures emit rosy light
white bowls of fire at the outer

group is the center, makes an I'M

to set off fireworks from his ex-
allied career and make loops in
the air, while a great frery ribbon
like stream of light followed, trac-
ing his path against inky sky of a

beautiful, but 1 could only think
of how one must feel to have a boy

he is such a boy, and all for a few

Exposition Letter.

Against all advice to the con-
trary, we went early and stayed
late, and didn't get too tired either
for we did not try to hurry any
where and rested often. We en-
tered by the main gate, the "Scott
street enterance," it is called, and
faces the wonderful tower of Jew
els. The first impression is de-
lightful and passing through the
different courts and by the many
wide streets the beauty and artistic
grandure is continually changing,
never becoming monotonous. /
could not but think repeatedly
that is any one should be set down
in any part of the grounds, would
think they had fallen into the very
center of things, where the most
beautiful statuary and the grand
buildings had ever been placed,
while trees, shrubbery and flowers
are around and over everything.
] saw evergreen trees, of some
heavy variety, growing in nitches
in the walls of some of the great
buildings that looked like they
had known no other home for fifty
years-I nearly said a hundred
but really the age of a pine tree is
something 1 know little about. A
tree twenty feet high and well pro-
portioned and heavily limbed may
be a dozen years or two hundred
for all l know. The great wall
that surrounds the fair grounds
looks like an immense hedge trim
med in square notshes, but l heard
some one say it was covered with
"ice plants" top and sides and
watered by means of pipes. Tulips,
in different colors, bloom every
where, while the ground beneath
them is a solid mass of pansies,
mostly yellow, sometimes blue.
AS the season progresses other
flowers miraculously take their
places. Everything is always at
its prettiest stage of bloom. Whole
banks of blossoms that I never
saw before made one stop to look
into the perfumed sweetness of
their faces. How "a they be al
ways like that, as though their buds
had been just ready and opened at
the first kiss of the morning light!
There is no inharmony of color
like one sees in private gardens,
often. There will be clumps of
plants three feet across of lavender
colored blossoms, a solid mass of
clusters, the softest hue magma
BILE, and alternating with the same
variety with all white flowers, No
other colors to take from the effect.
Fountains are everywhere, beauti-
full and immense.
The court of the four 81 is
circular, about fifty yards in diam
eter and has groups of statuary in

ures and beautiful in themselves
and in their symbolic conception.
