tits the intention of the company

representative of the Safety Appli.
ance give practical demonstration of
its life saving qualities.
The Save-All Automatic Fire Es-
cape consists of a galvanized steel
cable that runs through a steel sheave
wheel enclosed in steel case.
The sheave wheel is connected by
steel gears with a steel friction brake
controlled by centrifugally operated
steel weight. This brake is so sensi-
tive that its operation is absolutely
automatic.
At either end of the cable is a life.
belt made of web. These two life.
belts are the only parts of the whole
device which are not made of steel.
Let it also be observed that the
mechanism within the case is re.
markedly free from complications,
there being no springs or catches.
In timee of fire there is nothing to
get ready. nothing to adjust You SIM
ply open the window and throw out
the reeled cable. Unwinding as it
rapidly descends, the cable will of
course be left with one end on the
ground and the other end at the case
IN which is the mechanism.
Its speed, which is always unifrom.
whether you are descending one story
or thirty, is the same as that of q
Notwithstanding elevator, or about
5 feet per second, the sensation is
that of descending in an elevator.
The only difference is that, in the
case of the Save-AIl, no operator is
required. Neither you nor anybody
else has to do thing. You have to
use neither your hands nor your feet.
Sliding from the window, you simply
let yourself go, and the machine does
the rest-that is, sees to 1T that you
are speedily but gently lowered to
the ground. As you are descending
in the life belt on one end of the cable,
the other end with it's lifebelt is au-
tomatically drawn up.
This means that when you have SAFE
ly reached the ground, a life-belt is at
once available for the descent of an
other person.
And so 1t continues as long as there
is another person left to be saved-as
soon as one has descended another be-
gins to descend.
1t should be understood also that to
rescue an unconscious person or q
helpless Invalid with the Save-All, you
have only to pick him or her up,
place the life-belt under his or her
arms and let him or her slide out of
the window.
An unconscious person is lowered by
means of the Save-All with the same
assurance of safety as if he were a
trained athlete in full possession of all
his faculties.
The great advantage of this is
plain. For example, the hands can be
used to carry down q bsby or any ar
ticles which, because of sentimental
associations. cannot be replaced.
This belt has been adopted by the
Washington Fire Department and a
representative of the firm gave a
demonstration in Havre de Grace dur
ing the Firemen's Convention.
A practical test will be given in this
city shortly from the roof of some tall
building, possibly some hotel, and the
citizens will be invited to witness the
practical demonstration of the appa-
ratus.

THE NICARAGUA TREATY.

Debate in the United States senate yesterday
over the ratification of the Z. S.-Nicaragua
treaty, with the declaration that Germany has
United States plans to pay, makes the terms Of
our proposed treaty Of general interest
Briefly the terms are these: The United
States is to pay 100000 and in return, be-
sides the usual guarantee of amicable relations,
IS to receive q perpetual and exclusive right to
build canal through Nicaragua. We are also
to get two naval bases of prime strategic Inn
portance. one on Fonseca Bay, on the Pacific
side, northof the Canal route, the other on the
Corn Islands, small group in the Caribbean
off the port Of Bluefelds.
Both in political and military way, the
rights the United States is to acquire are of
great value, SO much so, indeed, that Nicaragua
feels that we are getting bargain for $3,000,-
600. We may never build the canal but at
least we will prevent any foreign nation from
acquiring these rights and thus raising per-
petual danger to the peace Of the Americas.
Nicaragua realizes quite as much as does the
United States that our. acquisition of these
canal rights and naval bases will be a definite
guarantee of peace IN the Western Hemisphere,
which goes far to reconcile the Nicaraguans to
the comparatively small sum we propose to
pay. The thoughtful leaders of this Central
American republic realize moreover that hav-
ing acquired valuable rights through their
territory, the United States would be strong
factor IN preserving internal peace and order.
Nicaragua has been so revolution-racked that
she Is IN great financial straits and recent ex
perlence with American authorities have CON
<'nced her that her great northern neighbor
can Be disinterested and sincere friend in
promoting commercial and social progress in
the Latin-A American countriesI

THE PRESIDENTS ANNOUNCEMENT.

The president has made assurance doubly
sure that he is going to be a candidate for re-
nomination by allowing the use OF his name
in the Ohio presidential primary.
Mr.. Wilson says that he is unwilling to enter
into contest for the denomination. By this
he evidently means that he does not believe It
becomes the president of the United States to
pull strings and play politics to become the
candidate, since in his now-famous single
term letter to A. Mitchell Palmer of Penn
sylvania, he declared that whether or not
president should be candidate for reelection
should be determined by public opinion, at
whose behest he was ready to guide his own
action.
As things political now stand in the national
Democracy, the president will not have to en-
ter into contest for denomination In many
states he will be the only candidate on the
Bourbon ticket. 1t is true that Bryan is work
ing vigorously to start an opposition faction.
but Bryan's efforts have produced no real men
ace as yet to the denomination OF Mr.. Wilson.
The president is the logical choice of Demoe-
racy and its only hope for victory. Unless
something very revolutionary happens between
now and next June, the st. Louis convention
will nominate Mr.. Wilson on the first or second
ballot.

PROPOSED FEDERAL PROHIBITION

The text of the resolution providing for a
prohibition amendment to the federal constitu-
ton is the same as that which received ma

1914 It was introduced in the Senate by Sena-
tors Sheppard of Texas and Galhnger of New
Hampshire and in the House by Represents
tives Webb Of North Carolina and Addison
Smith of Idaho A comprehensive brief whose
lobpect is to throw light on the purpose of the
amendment, the how of its enforcement and its
advantages to both wet and dry states, has been
issued by the National Prohibition Amendment
Commission.
Nine other anti-liquor bills are before Con
gress-three to abolish the traffic in the District
of Columbia, one to forbid liquor selling under

make Hawaii dry, two prohibiting the sale or
gift of Intoxicating liquors to minors within
IT, S. admiralty and maritime jurisdiction, two

why Congress was unlikely seriously to con-
slider restoring that figure. The Democratic
