DR.. jefferson, delivering his final
address at the church last night,
has as his subject How to Make
Democracy Safe for the World" He
showed first that legislation and edu-
cation have failed to make democracy
safe, education having notably failed
in the case of Germany. Democracy
he declared unsafe since it is a rule
of the majority, but under which the
minority may thwart the majority.
Democracy will be safe, he declared,
only when man has reached the goal
of universal Christian brotherhood.

French Lick, Ind, June 17.-From
the conference in progress at Tom
Taggart's French Lick hotel, it is
certain that the New York state dele
CATION at the Democratic national
convention will cast its first votes
for Gov. Alfred E. Smith of that state.
Senator Watson of Indiana, here for
the conference, believes his state will
cast its votes for Ambassador to
England John w. Davis as the Demo
cratic nominee. Mr.. Taggart continues
his support of Vice President Mar
shall as the nominee
Tammany Hall, which is represent
ed by Governor Smith and Charles F
Murphy, continues to more or less
actively keep the name of Herbert
Hoover to the front. 1t is known
that Tammany is bitter against the
Wilson administration, and the move
ment for Mr.. Hoover may grow out of
its desire to defeat W. G. McAdoo or
any one else known to favor Presi-
dent Wilson and his policies. Tam
many opposition also centers against
W. j. Bryan, and any move he may
make at the convention will be op-
posed by the Tammany Hall delegat-
eS.

 should have been unable to

 except that just then, Ambrose
 looked up suddenly. Hear that?" he exclaimed. "They are turning"
 I listened intently. Sure enough. Even to my inex- perienced ear, it soon became apparent that the dogs had turned and were coming down the mountain and in our direc- ton. Where do we go now?" I asked, my breath coming fast. Right ahead" Ambrose re- piled. He had slowed down to a walk and appeared to be thinking or listening, I couldn't tell which.
 Closer and closer came the dogs. Faster and faster went my pulse.
 The suspense grew intoler- able.

ANOTHER BILL PRESENTED.
County Asks City 70 HslP Dsfray Ex'
pSnss Of Maintaining Clock.

psnss Of Maintaining Clock.
When the board Of supervisors sub
mitted q bill to the city council for
S77e.23 for the care Of city prisoners IN
the county Jail for. the years 1sl3-191s
inclusive, tho county had not done. 1t
had another little account for the city
to settle, but because Of the peculiar
agreement entered into between coun-
ty and city neither tho members OF the
county board nor the city council knew
exactly what the county r1ghtfully was
entitled to. The second bill filed was
for upkeep and lighting Of the court
house clock.
When the clock was purchased many
, years ago, 1t Is sold, an agreement was
entered into between city and county
whereby the city was to give %ooo
toward the purchase price and was TO
pay one-third OF the cost OF main
tenance, Later, when the clock was
lighted, the city is said to have agreed
to one half the expense OF lighting:
The cdtys share Of tho purchase
price e said to have been paid. and
for some years the one-third OF the
cost Of maintenance was likewise cared
for by the city. Then. after the lights
were installed, the city contends. oliis
were submitted by tho county board
for or,e-half the cost OF maintenance
and ono half the cost OF lighting, the
county having Increased tho portion
the city was expected to stand for up
keen. Then tho city baked. refusing
tn nav until tho bill had been rectihed.
The present council has no knowl-
edse that tho bill ever was corrected
or that the county board ever ADMIT
ted that the city had been overchargcd.
But one thing seems certain, that the
dtv ceased to pay any part Of the e1-
pense Of operating tho clock after the
presentation Of the erroneous bill. AS
a consequence the city owes tho county
some part Of the expense Of keeping a
cIook in the court houre tower FOR
number OF years.
After the controversy arose over the
charges made by tho county there was
a time when the lights in the clock
tovor were dimmed and tho city al
Logged tho county had violated its con-
tract, which provided for constant
nightly lighting. Tho contract having
been violated, the council then aSSued'
the city was relieved Of any Obligation
to pay for the lishtIpg Or upkssp. The
