Silbc* %*riw#s Signal. VOL. XXV. x SILVER SPRINGS. N. Y., THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1916 No. 6 on g. Danforth Getting Scart. \ — Aldrich Political Machine Re- l0 rt« to Dirty Politic*. The Western New Yorker, which is , representative of tbe Aldriob oolitical machine of Monroe County, t the only Republican paper in yoniing County supporting Dan- ortb and jndging from the cbaraoter f the article appearing In last week's ssne o/ the New Yorker the Aldrich achine most be getting bfidly scart. nre |p NEVER was an article print- in tbe political history of Wyom- Connty so full of UNTRUTHS nd MISLEADING STATEMENTS, is an example: The attaok upon e. Republican County Committee use it endorsed Arobie D. San- en for Congressman is hased upon statement tbat it violated its -wn roles. The Western New Yor- er evidently knows as little about 'stales of the Republican County mniittee as it does about the Ten mmandments—for the FACTS ; tbat tbe RULES of the County -mmittee NOT ONLY ALLOW but o SPECIFICALLY PROVIDE for he DESIGNATION OF CANDI DATES where tbe political unit is LARGER tban the County; such as a Senatorial CONGRESSIONAL or a Judicial district. Therefore the WHOLE artlole based upon that MISSTATEMENT is as FALSE as lie STATEMENT ITSELF. The voters are not going to be fooled by inch DIRTY POLITICS. If tbis is a 8AMPLE of the methods o! tbe Al drich machine, the Signal believes the voters will rally to tbe support of the Republican County Committee tod prevent tbe Aldrich macine from getting a foothold in Wyoming County. Tnis is tbe biggest issne in this Con test. Do the Enrolled Repub lican voters want tbe Aldriob politi dal machine to control Wyoming Connty politics or will tbe Republi cans of Wyoming County vote to re tain oonlrol of its own political activities. Tbe Wyoming Connty Republican Committee was tbe first organization In the state to openly oppose Barnes and has been consistent in tbis position ever since. Barnes is down »nd out BUT ALDRICH IS THE BIGGEST MACHINE POLITICIAN IN THE STATE TODAY and his re presentatives in THIS county are re torting to any means to extend that machine into WYOMING COUNTY for their own personal gain with the repeated boast tbat THEYwill control ill appointments, etc. Is Wyoming County going to re tain control of its own political tu tors or become an adjunct to the Al- dricV machine of Roohester. Tbat lithe issue and judging from the irtiole in the New Yorker the repre sentatives of the Aldrich machine in tnis County are getting badly scart OAK HILL. A Thriller. James Toolen of this place, battery retainer on the Erie between War saw and Portage, had a thrilling ex perience Monday. He was running his gasoline band car to Portage and as be was running onto tbe bridge he noticed the switch was set wrong. \Jimmie'' immediately set tbe brakes and jumped. Tbe car jumped the tracks but remaind suspended over the end of tbe bridge. Chances are tbat if \Jimmie' 1 hadn't acted quickly and set tbe brakes on the car and jumped for safety, both would have gone over tbe bridge with al most certain death for the latter.

Open Season on Ducks. Tbe open season on docks and geese is from Sept 16th to Jan. 10th, In clusive. Tho shooting ot ducks, as It applies to Silver Lako, taken from tbe game laws, reads as follows: Water fowl may be takon during the open season from the land, from a blind or floating device used to oon- coal tbe hunter (other than a sail or power boat) from a rowboat, wbon tbe same is within fifty feot ot tbe shore or a natural growth of flags or in pursuit of wounded birds. Flocks of duoks shall not bo pursued in fresh water so as to drive them away from any neighborhood. The limit is twen ty-five in ono day for one hunter or forty for two hunters occupying the same blind or boat. It will be noticed by the above law tbat it will be unlawful for httntors to chase a fiook of duoks back and forth from one end of tbe lake to tho other and eventually drive them off tbe wator entirely. Gamo Proteotor Thos. E. Marsh states that tho law is going to be striotly enforced and any person chasing a Hook ot ducks from one portion of tbe lako to tbe other will be punished. Very fow duoks or geeso bave visited the lako in late years and it Is thought that this is partially duo t o hunters ohnsing tbom off tbo wator. Mr. Marsh thinks that wltb the presont law onforcod tbat tbe lake may again become a favor ite feeding place for tbem and hun ters again be ablo to bave some rare sport. If you go t o tbe lake for duoks this fall, wntoh out or the gamo pro teotor or somo of bis mon will get you if you violate the law. bas leo- Pay Your Pledges. The Eternal Pathos of Raising Money to keep churches going goes on apaoe. The poor pastor, himself generally underpaid, and bis faithful vestry go on beating up the high ways and byways to get people t o do something which tbey ought to do anyway. Scarcely any member of a church who belongs t o a private olub would dare to omit paying his olub dues without the certainty of being expelled. Yet tbe same man goes on shirking bis churchy obligation with blissful serenity, year in and year out And yet if there is any obliga tion for a man as a matter of com mon honor and decency to pay bis clnb does, bis responsibility with re gard to his ohoroh is certainly great er. A large number of sincere people look npon the church as being a purely spiritual affair, a bouse not I built with hands. So it is. But a spiritual affair, in tbis world at least, has to be maintained. One might as well say tbat because the body is the temple of the Holy Ghost it shonld not wear clothes. It takes money to ran a church. Tbe pastor hss to work hard. He is entitled to three good meals a day, a good bed to sleep in and the privilege of raising a family. He is entitled to more than this: to the sources of in tellectual stimulus and Inspiration. There is, besides, the necessary to every church. It'should have bean ty, for beauty is a gift of God. It shonld conform in its physical as pects to modern requirement*, The church should not be constantly har assed for the want of necessaries common to any well-conducted bus! ness, tbe most important business we have, indeed, since it i s the only one tbat extends beyond this * J tbe next. Tbis being so, why should not our chnrohes be put on a busi ness basis? Wby cannot every ohnroh member accustom himself to think that he must pay his ohnrob does just as regulaily as be pays the dues of bis club? Our gas bills come once a month, wby not our ohuroh dues? The ohurches are entitled to a little business consideration at tbe hands of business men. Pomona Grange.
