Mr.. Reid is greatly encouraged by
the widespread interest this event
has created and especially so as it is
the first one of this character to be
run on the Speedway track. The idea,
originated among the members of
the Speedway Park assn and they
are putting forth their best efforts to
handle the affair in a successful
manner. The leading clubs of Chi
cago have exhibited much interest
in the race and are lending their as
sistance to make it popular and an

SIDEWALK PRO-
CRAM A BIG ONE.
Miles of Walks to be Laid
This Summer
Board of Public Works Get
ting an Early Start
in the Work.

At the meeting of the council
held on Tuesday evening of this
week the sidewalk building pro-
pram was advanced by the
Board of Public work by the
condeming of a large number
of wooden walks in the city.
This was in addition to the large
number of walks already con-
demned. The report also pro-
vided for the laying of new GEM
ent walks wherever the grade
has been given by the city. The
report was adopted by the coun-
Gil.
Block after block of wooden
walks have already been con-
demned and the Board of Public
works will not cease their work
until they have condemned every
wooden walk in the city which
is in unsafe condition.
Just as rapidly as the city can
get around to it the walks will
be brought up to grade. On
some of the streets where the
fill will have to be heavy the
city will wait until the paving is
under way and will take the dirt
removed from the main street
and use it for filling. This will
cut down the expense to the city
considerable as the contractor
must remove the dirt at the
stipulated price to any part of
the city within 5000 feet from
where the excavating is being
done.

peace at the present time and it is
safe to bet that the war will 90 until
one side or the other is willing TO
say it is licked. But we should worry
here in this neck of the woods just as
long as the Dupont people con-
tinue to employ 1000 men in their
works and business contin-
ues at RAPID pace. Someone has to
benefit by the other fellows grief.

Pioneer Resident Dead

Mr.. Timothy Manning, a
pioneer resident of the city,
passed away at an early hour
this morning following a stroke
of paralysis. Mr.. Manning was
stricken day or SO ago and it
was known by relatives that ne
could not long survive and the
blow has been a hard one for
the mem BERT of the family.
Mr.. Manning was well along
in years, being past seventy
years of age at the time OF
death. During the past few
years he has been very sick at
time but would always seem to
recover and he appeared to be
in the best of health when
stricken. He is one OF the
pioneer residents of the city and
was highly respected by all who
knew him.
An obituary will be published
in the next issue of the paper.

possessions, and the Pacific States feel
themselves as close to him as does New
York itself. Rarely in our history have
the professional political leaders and the
popular mind united upon the same man
for presidential candidate. Only Justice
Hughes own vote is apparently needed
to make the thing unanimous.
His Famous Cross-Examination
of Mccall
WHAT is the explanation of this amaz-
ing tribute? Fundamentally the mat
ter is simple enough-it is likewise en-
tirely complimentary to the honesty and
common sense OF the American people.
Ever since Mr.. Hughes suddenly ap-
peared as the Grand lnquisitor, he has
represented certain definite American
ideals.
The insurance investigation was really
a turnng-point in American history. 1t
ushered in new period in American poll
ties and American business life. Until
then we had much denunciation and
much sensational and i'll proportioned
exposure; but Mr. Hughes. with mas
ter hand, gave Americans perfect por-
trait drawn in bold and classic outlines,
of the evils that were destroying their in
stitutions.
Our country is different place from
