London. Aug. 24.-The Danish
Landsthing has rejected the proposal
to sell the Danish West Indies to tho
United States, says Reuter- dispatch
from Copenhagen.
The vote was taken in committee
by the Landsthing. the upper house OF
the Danish Parliament The treaty
was rejected by thirty-nine votes.

Although the lower house of the

United States for s25.000,0o0. the ac-
ton of the Landsthing in rejecting 1t
was expected generally in Denmark.
This vote, however, does not neces-
sarily mean the final defeat OF the
project. as other questions of a. politi-
cal nature are involved. The treaty
with the United States will be brought
up again after the general election.

WHO WILL BE SELECTED
IN LASHERS PLACE

There was considerable specula-
tion on the streets of the city this
morning as to who would succeed
o. c. Lasher as commissioner from
the third ward, now that he has
been elevated to the office of May
or, and the question is rather a per-
picking one because there are no ap-
pllicants for the place and some
really desirable men who would
make the city good official say
they wouldn't have the job on a bet.
1t has been suggested that perhaps
j. NJ. Hoard might be induced to ac-
cept the job again, but this is hardly
probable from the fact that he is
one of the prominently mentioned"
who will be in the race for mayor
next spring, so it is not likely that
he would care TO take his old Job

months.
The board will be compelled to Sc
lect some good man from that ward,
and wish the job on him from pres
ent indications, in the general pri-
mary things might be different, but
the present term has but few
more months to run and for all the
information available the acceptable
material from that borough will be
candidates themselves which pre-
cluded the possibility of their ac-
cepting a short appointive term.
The salary of a commissioner is
not attractive enough to induce a
business man to sacrifice very much
Of his time, and therefore it looks
from the surface that it is going to
be some job to get the right man
now, however, politics is a great
game and you can never tell just
what is going to happen.

THE WHITE WAY
IS NOW UP To
THE PEOPLE
VOTE TO BE TAKEN ON PROPOSE
TON NOVEMBER "a - WILL
THE PEOPLE OF ARDMoRE Ac
CEPT IT7

The question Of a white way is prac
tically up to the people now. At the
meeting Of the Board Of City Com
missioners last night 1t was voted to
recommend to the public that the way
be constructed and it will be put up to
the people at a special election for
their approval or rejection.
There has been considerable agita-
tion over this matter for some time,
but only recently has 1t reached the
point where something tangible will
result; that is, the people will either
ratify the action of the board or they
will reject it altogether, and retain
the antiquated system that Ardmore
abs today.
The notice Of election will be pub
lished the legal length of time and the
election will be held November IA. At
the same time the question of voting
bonds for the enlargement of the fire
department and equipping the city
with a modern fire alarm system will
be voted upon. The joint committee
from the Business Mems association
and the Chamber OF Commerce are to
make an investigation and confer with
the city officials relative to this mat.
ter as to whether there shall be sub
station in each ward or whether a
larger and more fully equipped cen
tral station be maintained as at pres
ent. There seems to be a sentiment
in favor Of sub-stations, but the com
mittee has so far given no intimation
as to what their report will be.
There will be little or no opposition
to the white way, ir the opinion of a
majority Of the business men and
property owners OF the city. Such sys-
TENS are becoming more and more in
vogue in up to date cities and Ard
more desires to keep abreast OF the
times in this respect.
The white way was a pet scheme OF

ing that he hoped the people would
table the sensible view of the matter
and vote for it when the election was
called
This system will eliminate all poles
on Main, Broadway and Washington
streets in the territory designated as
the white way The Pioneer Tele- |
phone company is already preparing
to lay conduits for its lines in this dis |
trict, so the overhead wiring and poles /
will be disposed Of altogether, which |
will be another argument in favor of |
the white way As soon as the proc /.

election, an active campaign will be /.

there is little apprehension that the |
