THE FUEL THAT FAILED.

Everyone who spent the summer N Washington and observed with n I'M
partial w the character of the men in administrative Offices and their carry
performances expected some such occurrence as the Garfield cloang-do"n Dr.
der. til a strange camp Men Of dreams, men with poehcal neor1es OIL po-
litcal economy, reforners of public morals, secretaries sin uphf* movements
sreculators in philosophy and spectators in stocks, decaptahzed capitalists
and nnfnanced fnanciers, retured lawyers and obsolete editors, all bewhdered
and dazed, but each obstinate in his belief and immensely jealous OF his ~

It is not altogether fair to the Fuel Administrator to put Ill the bame or

officials. We feel sorry for poor Dr. Garfield. He has been crhclzed N

the Presidents, could have suspected he had special qualification. HIS only
reward is 10 become famous, as n of our young men remarks, or pulling

Two Automobile Accidents
Caused by Rain

Monday evening was considered by
automobile drivers one Of the most
disagreeable for months. There were
two automobile accidents and sever
al cars came very close To running
into teams and other autos The rain
on the wind shields made the driv-
ing very precarious. An automobile
coming down College avenue ran in
T. team which vas going in the op-
posite direction and although neither
Of the parties were injured the wheels
were taken off the team and the par
ties settled without any further
trouble.
Al about O'Clock another accident
occurred when an auto truck driven
by Martin Goodhue Of Sidney ran in
to the rear Of the express wagon
driven by Walter Romeo There was
only slight damage and neither Of
the drivers was injured
