Just about 100 persons, including
some 20 ladies. We're present, in re-
Spouse to a call for q mass meeting
to consider some action in regard to
a substitute for commission govern
ment or at least to get an expression
of the people regarding the matter.
Mayor Lamb called the meeting to
order and Hon. George w. Heselton
was chosen chairman. Mrs. w. S.
eCobb was chosen secretary.
Mr.. Heselton said that personally
he felt that commission government
was the best ever known. He attri-
buted what degree of failure it had
met with in Gardiner to the officials.
rather than the form of government.
He recalled that there had been much
more fault found with the old gov
eminent than there was with the pres
ent form. From the very outset COM
n.ission government was chloroformed
by politics. You've get conditions
here that are not satisfactory. Let us
see why a form of government that
has stood the test in nearly 500 cities,
has not given universal satisfaction

Why National Agreement

board to abrogate the national agree
ments so that an ultimate reduction in

in wages would be brought about,

President Wilson.
Mr.. Cuyler said the roads had re-

because such a conference. could not
adjust conditions for all roads in all
parts of the country.
"The action requested by Brig. Gen.
w. w. Atterbury of the Pennsylvania

with government sanction, can free
the hands of the railroad executives

Pope May Name
American Cardinal

Rome, Feb. 1z"Will there be new
American cardinals?" is the suery
circulating in the Vatican world since
it has been learned that Archbishop
Hayes of New York has landed at
ceived by the Pope. He is understood
to have with him for presentation to
the Pontiff one of the most Important
reports brought from America by any
member of the Episcopate.
1t now seems definitely settled that
the next consistory will occur the be-
ginning of March and that q consld-
cradle number of cardinals are to be
appointed. BY SOME it is believed one
new American cardinal will be Great
ed Among the names mentioned are
those of Archbishop Dougherty of
Philadelphia; Archbishop Mundelstein
of Chicago and Archbishop Hayes.
Others think that perhaps more than
one American cardinal will be nom
mated in view of the constant growth
of the Catholic church in the United
States.
In case more than one new cardlnai
is appointed for the United States, IL
is said that one of them, perhaps, VIII
be reserved by the Pope in pectore.
This would mean the Pontiff thinks 1T
expedient to keep back the name OF
one cardinal for future occasion.
whose name later would be ANNOUNCED
publicly and would date from the
ccnsistory.
BY Vatican procedure, should the
reigning Pope die, Cardinal serving
in pectore. automatically becomes a
full-fedged member of the sacred
college.
