It is the in- tention of McPherson to GOV CT prac- tically every section of the Terri tory this summer, Investigating con ditions and gathering data for use in connection with future campaigns Tor aiding in development work.

SPLITTING HAIRS.

Considering the controversy be- tween Canadian and American taxi owners which was stirred Up last week one can come to no other con- clusion than that the Stewart opera tors have made a serious faux pas Had they deliberately started out to kill the goose that was laying the golden eges for them they could nave taken no moye effective mea- sure than the one they did take. Oae would naturally expect that there would be more or less sym oathy extended them by theiE home folbs, but this is not a fact. Stew art people consider that they have pulled a boomer, and are as much 1iseusted over the petty jealousy displayed as are the Hyder resi- dents.
 In a new community there should De shown @ spirit of give and take. Stewart and Hyder have no reason for anything bus the most friendly rivalry.~~ The prosperity of ope town can but reflect prosperity on the other. That there are two towns at the head of Portland Canal is fortunate for both. Each has now somewhere to go visiting. The fact that most of the passenger traffic originates in Hyder should make business better for the Hyder cars than for those comSng from Stew art, but up to the present no parti- ality has been shown In the future howeyer, if one may judge by eX- pres ions heard around the streets, Hyde cars will be given q strong preference.
 So far as Customs Officer Came ron IS concerned. he would never nave made any trouble on this ques- tion. The fact that passengers and supplies were unioaded 27 feet from the boundary line bothered him not sD the least. He knew that they were going across che line, and that under present conditions there was 10 other way in which they could entcs Hyder, But when charges were brought by other parties he could do nothing else but act,

At the regular meeting of the city
Board of Health, yesterday afternoon,
Col. j. Austin Ellison, representing the
Wilmington Sanitary Co, the holders of
the present contract, made an informal
statement to the board, whose sanction
is desired to a transfer of the present
contract to concern not named, which
would use the garbage collections for
feeding hogs on an extensive scale.
This would involve the establishment Of
plant outside of city limits, where
modern sanitary methods would be
followed, this being essential TO the
commercial success of the plan Incl
dentally, Col. Ellison stated that the
present contract is being carried out at n
financial loss to his company, and that
the restoration of the crematory building
destroyed by fire last january, is not at
present contemplated unless this shall

board that the concern with which nego-
tiatlons arc pending was of wide expert
ence and ample responsibility, and that

want to know, however if the change Of
method would meet with approval

At the suggestion Of DIR G.. NJ HANDY
president of the board. tho matter was
laid over for consideration AT a special
meeting TO be held on August 3 In the
meantime an opinion on the legal phases
OF the matter will be secured from City
Solicitor Huxley.
II is understood that the attitude Of the
company is that the restoration Of the
crematory building Mt the expiration Of
the contract period, next year, would
comply with its terms. and that II the
method of disposal should be changed
IN the meantime, such restoration would
be unnecessary, and the matter would be
open to settlement by negotiation OF a
court decision.

REBUFFS STRIKING FIREMEN.
Memphis Commissioner Again Rejects
COMPROMISE Ofer.

Memphis, July 2s.,- Commissioner
Edgar In reply to the petition of the
Trades and Labor Council In behalf
of the striking firemen again rejected
the compromise offer yesterday. He de-
clared that as far as his department
is concerned there will be no confer
ence or further dealings with the unions.
A walkout of a majority of the street
car workers was limited as one of the first
moves in the event the offer Is rejected,
according to a prominent union official
today. This will be followed by similar
action by railway brotherhoods and may
spread to all unions, he asserts.
The walkout will not be classed as
a general strike, labor men say, but
will take the form of individual vaca-
tions. 1t is argued that with the pres
ent Fire Department composed of voiun-
teers, it behooves the men to remain at
home TO protect their property.
