Are Cifside -Fairuiew
Hostilities Likely?

"Why should Fairview attack Cliff
side Park? Because Fairview and
Cliffside Park are commercial and po-
litical rivals; because Fairview covets
the trade and business which Cliff
side Park possesses" If we substi-
tute for Fairview and Cliffside Park
the names of two mighty world ma
lions now in a death struggle for
supremacy we have a paragraph
from Germany and England" by
Robert Blatchford. What, if any
thing, have our local officials done to
protect the boundary line between
these two boroughs from a possible
attack, maybe at night? Should not
the reservoir be transformed into a
naval base, half of it being allotted
to fleet worthy of each borough?
Or else the reservoir could be main
tanned in it's present capacity, and
then in case of actual hostilities
drained on to the terrain" of that
borough which failed to seize it
quickly enough. 1t would make a
most excellent fort then.
1t is surprising what military pos
sibilities there are in this old storage
reservoir.
Our standing army of five is, no
doubt, sufficient for ordinary pur-
poses, but a strong reserve should
vasion by our plotting CD and
scheming GU neighbor. But, maybe,
who knows. that's why the twenty
marshals. But then again, how
many has Fairview got? She may
have more. WE OUGHT TO AIM
TO ALWAYS HAVE ONE OR TWO
MORE THAN SHE HAS.
Friends, we are unprotected, day
and night. Fairview is jealous OF
our good looks, and who knows when
the hour will strike?
Let US prepare, or all will be lost.

The Newly Improved
Trinity Episcopal
Church In Grantwood

Trinity Episcopal Church, in Grant
wood, is now, since the new improve
ments were finished several months
ago, most beautiful and inviting
church edifce. The cathedral glass
windows that have been in for many
years, are of great artistic value and
most pleasing design, the dominat-
ing color in the main being a golden
yellow, soft in tone, with border
in rich greens or emerald cast The
altar has been changed, and many
rich and elegant additions made to
accessories that are used in the regu-
lar service. The candlelabra of brass
on either side of the back of the
altar, make most pleasing pyra-
mid effect with the candles all
lighted. These things are symbols
of the church and add much to the
solemnity of the form of worship.
Taken all in all, with the new Guild
Hall remodeled by Mr.. Montgomery,
the present rector, and Trinity
Church is one of the most attractive
and up-to-date in the entire Hilltop
Section, if, indeed it is not the very
handsomest.

for some time, having in mind re-
turning to California.
Should he make up his mind to
leave Palisade, Mr.. Willard will have
the good wishes of host of friends
who will sincerely regret losing him.
No man ever lived in Palisade and
reflected greater honor upon the
community than Bailey Millard. He
represents a very high type of citi-
zenship indeed, and any community
is enriched by the presence of such
man. Able, unobstrusive, public
spirited, Mr.. Millard has always
stood for and helped the best inter
ests of Palisade. The time will no
doubt come when Palisade will be
proud of the distinction of having
been the home of Bailey Willard.

Murders Five and
 Then Kills Himself
Idaho Hotel Proprietor Perpetrates Horrible Slaughter Because
 of Divorce.

BOISE, Idaho, Oct. S0.-William Cameron, formerly hotel proprietor of Carey, Idaho, yesterday murdered his wife, his father in law, his moth CT in law, his brother in law, his daughter and then inflicted wounds on himself which will prove fatal. The wife had started suit for divorce and Cameron blamed her family for it. She was the daughter of Mir. and Mrs. John Adamson and the sister of James Adamson, all of whom met their death yesterday at the hands of Cameron. His own daughter, whom he also murdered, was only eighteen years of age and a pretty girl. The wound inflicted on himself is in the head and the doctors say he has no chance of recovery. Some time ago he served a jail sentence after com plaints made by his ncighbOrS for beating his wife.

WANT SPENCE
 TAKEN AWAY
DEMOCRATIC CLUB OF VALDEZ ASKS REMOVAL OF THE
 DISTRICT ATTORNEY.

On the way back to Washington at this moment is an appeal from the Democrats of Valdez to remove from office District Attorney Spence of the Third division, acording to indis- putable evidence received today by the Gateway. The resolution calling for the retirement of the district attorney was passed at meeting of the Democratic club of Valdez about ten days ago. It carried a preamble which stated that Spence has not identified himself with the Demo cratic party in Alaska, has associated and worked with the bitterest op- ponents of the organization, is not an Alaskan, and is in various way un- fitted for the position. The informa- tion received even goes the length of saying that Spence is incompetent. A rumor has also reached the Gate way that the Bar association of Val dez is about to follow along the same lines with regard to the district at tOrney.

BIG FIRE IN
 THE KLONDYKE CANADIAN KL0NDYKE COM PANTS STEAM GENERATING
 PLANT DESTROYED.

DAWSON, Oct. SO.-The Canadian Klondyke Mining company'S large steam generating plant was destroyed by fire last Friday and the loss is away up in the thousands of dollars. The cause of the fire is something of mystery but that it was accidental there is no reason to doubt. The loss of the plant has compelled the com pany to continue the operation of its dredges by means of water power which is available in fairly good quantity from the big ditches. The dredges had to be shut down for a time until the new adjustments are made.

RECEIVER APPOINTED FOR
 SELDOVIA SALMON co.
E. F, Randolph, Manager of the Com pany, Appointed by Dis
 trict Judge.

E. F. Randolph, manager of the Seldovia Salmon company, has been appointed receiver of that concern by Judge Brown after application for the appointment of receiver was made by Lyons and Ritchie, the Val deg firm of attorneys. The immedi- ate cause of the motion for the ap- pointment of receiver, apparently, was the filing of a suit for $lO,OOO by the firm of Coon Dip & Company for the supply of labor. The total amount of the indebtedness to the Chinese firm was over $15,0O0 of which $4,OOO was paid. The suit was filed through Lyons and Ritchie. E. F. Randolph, manager of the Salmon company, in an affidavit states that the company is indebted in the sum of S70,00O and that a forced sale would not bring more than $5O,OOO. The company was incorporated for $15O,OOO and Mir. Randolph says mis- management caused a loss of SlOO,- 900. He took over the management in 1914, he states, and made profit that year. Mir. Randolph also states in his affidavit that arrangements have been made through the large stockholders to meet the indebted ness in a given time and to re-or- ganize the company on a paying basis, and they want to be assured or protection. All the stock except three shares is owned by Ben Moyses and the estate of Julius Redels- heimer.

Thief With a New
 Trick Makes Haul
Got Away With Thousands by Means of Tool that Looked
 Like Pen.

BALTIMORE, Oct. 3O.-Using a device that looked like a fountain pen a robber succeeded in getting away with thousands of dollars here yesterday from the National Ex- change Bank. He and his confeder- ates entered the bank and the others engaged the teller in conversation. All were we'll dressed and apparently men of means. The chief operator of the bunch took what was appar- ently a fountain pen and proceeded to handle it as a man does who IS thinking before coming to the con clusion to write what he wants to- The teller was occupied but from what can be gathered the fountain ren was nothing but an implement
 
 with a hook on the end of it. Insert ing this hook between the bars of the cage the thief drew out eighteen hundred dollars in currency and twenty-two thousand dollars in checks. The confederates ended their conversation with the teller and followed the man with the pen out quietly. They had been gone some time before the robbery was diseov- cred and not a clue has yet been found.
