SONS INFLUENCE.

Washington, Feb. 15-(Special Cor
respondence)-The is no visible ev.
idence here that the presidents
speeches in the middle west have pro-
duced any reaction upon his rebel
liOus fellow. democrats in congress
which can be translated into votes for
his preparedness legislation. On the
contrary, the leading indictments
among the democratic majority seem
to have been stimulated in their OPP
position by the presidents attempt to
arouse the nation.
No sooner had Mr.. Wilson delivered
Ills first speech in Pittsburg and it
became evident that his appeal for
support was to contain vague and
threatening generalities, than the re-
calcitrant congressman proceeded to
".ltire hail." as the president had pre-
viOusly cOunselled in his New York
speech. They took the largest theater
in the city and proceeded to food the
town with hand bills bearing the
striking heading, Don't be Scared"
When the meeting was held it was
found that the crowd in attendance
was a record breaker and six demo-
cratic members of congress proceed
ca to voice their opinion of prepared
ness and OF their presidents position

hostility which could not be misunder.

vague and general alarm, always, how
ever, qualifying his menacing words

solemn warnings of all their force. In
D word the president has lacked the
punch" in what he has said to the
middle west. His speeches have been
clothed in elegant diction, as Con-
gresham Kitchin has said, but they
have seemed to be the effort of an
elocutionist who is speaking a piece"
rather than the hot and heartfelt ut
terances of crusader. In short, the
presidents speeches have not rung
true.
And in this is the great weakness
of the presidents present position be-
fore the country, not only regarding
the program for defense, but regard
ing many other questions Of wide i'm

so often and SO suddenly that he does

"A. H. Roberts IN chambers seeking an
injunction restraining the city from
collecting the taxes. Judge Roberts
declined to grant the injunction and
pending the time of taking proof in the
case. the city, on the advice OF attor-
G. E. Keyes, passed an ordinance
specifying how taxes should he assess
ed and collected. When the case came
on for hearing before Judge Roberts
he held that while the charter did not
set out specifically the authority for
levying and collecting taxes that such
authority was implied, and, further, in
the event the charter should prove to
be lame on the point Of not especially
delegating to the city the power to
levy and collect taxes, that that defect
could be cured by ordinance, which had
been done. On those grounds Judge
Roberts decided the case adversely to
Mr.. Potter. Mr.. Potter then appealed
the case with the result that the high
er court, which is the one of last re-
sort, decided against him also. That
settles the case from the point of rur-
ther litigation, but there will be a bill
of cost for MIR. Potter to pay that will
amount to considerable. i

result that the following
RESOLUTION WAS PASSED:
Wheras, it is evident from the gen.
eral discussions here tonight, that the
health and sanitary conditions of our

responsible for many diseases such as
typhoid fever tuberculosis, etc, there
for be it resolved:
First, that this meeting most urgent
ly request the City Board of Mayor and
Aldermen TO take such steps as may be
necessary to improve these conditions.
Second, That the Chairman of this
meeting appoint committee of three
to confer with the Board OF Mayor and
Aldermen as to ways and means to

made x-officIo chairman of this com-
mittee.

mlttee arrange me etlng for as early
date as possible with the Board of
Mayor and Aldermen IN order that I'M
mediate action he taken
While the response to the call for a
mass meeting was not so large as it
should have been, the best element of
the community was much in evidence
and manifested deep interest in the
question of improved sanitary condi-
tions for our town.
