Strictly speaking the money secur-
ed this week is for the purchase OF
Rose Festival buttons with which the
tickets are given However, the Com
mercial association will purchase tho
buttons outright with the funds raised
for the campaign and on Saturday the
girls OF the Phoenix Club, Of which
Miss Sailing is member, will sell but

Wilson's Policy
Flayed by Burton
in Address Here
CANDIDATE FOR G. o. p. NONlI-
NATION FOR PRESIDENT
MAKES ATTACK.

In an open air address to several
hundred people at the Happy Canyon
pavilion Saturday afternoon, Theodore
E. Burton Of Ohio candidate for the
republican nomination for president,
devoted his entire attention to the
foreign policy OF President Wilson,
condemning the presidents attitude
with reference to Mexico and Ger
many.
The speaker often dwelt in sarcas-
tic or sneering manner upon the ac-
tions of the administration. He in
sisted a mistake was made when rec
ognition was refused 10 Huerta who
was classed as having maintained the
most responsible government in Mexi-
co in recent years Senator Burton
declared the taking Of Vera Cruz by
the United States had accomplished
nothing.
Upon the European situation the
senator emphatically condemned the
administrations policy toward Ger
many. Though holding that the re-
cent ultimatum to Germany was right
in tone he insisted such action should
have been taken sooner.
In his talk the senator refrainsd en-
tirely from any discussion of economic
subjects and did not dwell on the I'll.
ibuster that brought about the de-
feat of the administration shipping
bill year ago.
Following the talk by Senator Bur.
ton, is minute address was made by
ex7Congressman Cole or Ohio, who is
accompanying Senator Burton. Mr.,
Cole also condemned the Wilson for
eign policy, CHASING the president as
the Buchanan of the present day,
rather than the modern day Lincoln.
Both speakers Tere introduced to
the audience by Captain C. A. Muir
ply of the local Young Mems and
Young Women's Republican Club.
Senator Burton was frequently ap.
plauded but the enthusiasm shown
was not voclferous.

very friendly feeling during the past
few months. During the election
campaign Gibson is said to have been
a strong supporter Of Best.
According to a statement Of the
mayor this mornuing. ne caused the
arrest of Gibson because the latter
practically dared him to do so. The
dance ordinance prohibits indecent
dancing and, for the guidance Of the
dancers, the managers Of the dance
had posted up signs stating that rag
ging" would not be permitted and
that in the one-step or walk-dance nor
more than eight steps may be taken
without a pivot.
Mayor Best charges that Gibson
guided his partner entirely AROUND
the hall without turning, despite
warnings given him. He states that
when he and officer Nash cautioned
him, Mr.. Gibson asked why they didn't
arrest him If he was violating the
law. Il told Nash to take him to the
station" said the mayor.

College Work We'll
Under Way
Buildings Being Razed---Grading
Soon to. Begin

College work is beginning in
earnest. The wrecking crew is
making good progress on the
"Old Dorm and the contractor
will begin the construction opera
tions in short time. Work on
science hall, set back by the re-
cent rains, is now making an in
teresting showing. The plans
for the new dormitory have been
completed and are in the hands of
college u t h orr t e s. Another
Wrecking crew is at work tearing
down buildings on Main street
getting ready for the grading en-
gineers. The heating men have
pipe extension laid out with all
material on the ground. They will
make ready to connect with the
science building, new dormitory
and infirmary. The grading en-
gineers have arrived and are busy
erecting shacks for the workmen.
Most of the machinery is on the
ground and this work will be
started in a few days. No doubt
the grading will attract attention
from the very beginning. With
this so acre plot parked, Newark
can look with keen appreciation
to the future.
Along with this, Contractor
Griffin is remodeling the Stol
property into an Infrmary. This
will be ready for service in the
fall at the college opening.
To date practically everything
done has merely been in prepara
ton. With all these operations il
full swing citizens of Newark will
have plenty to test their powers O.
