The condition of the Republican party, discredited before the people and dishonored in its own councils in legis- lative and congressional halls; its grafts, convictions, compelled resigna- tions, its contradictions and its perjur- ies; its tariffs and its tolls, burdening the whole people with unnecessary and unbearable cost; its wasteful and—ex- travagant conduct, to an extent which forces its own senators to say that the government should and ought to be carried on at $300,000,000 less per annum, and multiplies fourfold the largest cost of our state government under any Democratic administration, calls upon the people to divest it of power. We are for reform and return to Democratic polices in every branch of the government. We-sre for adherence to the Constitution; for equal rights for all; for special privileges for none ; for competency, honesty and efficiency in office. We-are for the greatest rights for the people; for direct nominations and primary reforms that will reform and eliminate bosses, bosslets and bossisms, and restore the government to Demo- cratic principles. *r We are for the shortest ballot, and the closest secrecy; for party and in- dividual enrollment; for publicity in account and open- balances. We denounce the man, or the men, or the candidate, • who will ask for or give before hand, a pledge as to bis action, whether to gain an elective office or a judicial appointment. We are for the man for governor who can carry the state, and they are many. We are for the judgement of the stale convention. \ -J \ A serious accident occurred at the home of Mrs. Florence Coykendall, 42 Prospect street, at midnight Monday night, in which her father, W. P. Chase, who lives with her, fell and seri- ously injured his head. He got up in the night to go to the bath room and fell in the dark the full length of the .stairs. He struck on the landing below and received a severe bruise to his head and an ugly\ gash over his right eye, besides many minor bodily bruises. Dr. Geo. D. York was immediately sum- moned and worked over Mr. Chase for sometime as he remained unconscious for an hour. Since then he has been delirious a good deal of the time and he will not be able to get down to business, it is feared, for quite a num- ber of days. Mr. Chase is bookkeeper for the Mat- tison Hardware Company and is a man 74 years of age. His many friends regret this serious mishap. The Annual School Picnic.

GALLON W. E. COOK HARDWARE CO. \ :: MILLER HOUSE BURNED Firemen Called Out at an Early Hour Tuesday Morning. POLLUTING LYONS WATERS Health Officer Porter of Albany Attributes Typhoid Cases in Lyons to Pollution in Military Brook which E.mpties into Ganargua River. The fire signal at 4 o'clock Tuesday morning called the fire department to the residence of Waverly Ferris on West Union street where a lively fire occurred on account of the explosion of a 'lamp. The house was owned by Mrs. Wm. Miller and is a double frame structure. The blaze confined itself to the second story of the north side of the house. In the dwelling W. W. Ferris occupied the north part and Mrs. Saeger occupied the south part. It is supposed that the fire originated from the explosion of a lamp. Mr. Ferris succeeded in remov- ing practically all of his furniture. His loss was. .adjusted Wednesday morning by a special agent of the New Brunswick Fire Insurance Company of which W.' A. Salisbury is the agent. Democratic Caucus. The Democratic caucus was held in the City Hall Monday night, John H. Egan was chosen chairman, W. P. Rupert, secretary and B. H. Palmer and J. H.

For a number of years past the village of Lyons has suffered almost annually from an epidemic of typhoid fever. This year the village is again under its plague, and there are now twenty or thirty cases of typhoid in that village. An investigation-of the milk and water supply has been made at a request of the local authorities in Lyons. This investigation was made several weeks ago and a report has been received by Dr. De Forrest Cole, health officer in Lyons, from Dr. Eugene H. Porter, State Commissioner of Health of Albany. The report on this investigation is one in which Newark people should be greatly interested for, in his letter to the Lyons authorities, Dr. Porter says that the Lyons water supply is a mix- ture of waters received from driven wells and from Ganargua Creek. He then goes to tell how the \ Mud Creek\ water is polluted by the discharge of Military Brook into Ganargua Creek; and that Military Brook is polluted by \sewage contributed by at least three thousand persons in the village of Newark.\ In his report of the investigation of the water supply, Dr. Porter says: That the supply of water served by the Lyons Water Works Company is a mixed supply of water from the Ganau- gua Creek and a series of driven wells of which about half is received from each source.\ While the report covers the source of this supply it says that the reservoir at the pumping station was in a very unclean condition. It further says that Ganargua Creek from which part of the supply was taken re- ceived little pollution between this village and Newark, but \the main pollution is caused by the discharge of Military run, a feeder to Ganargua Creek of ^ sewage contributed by 3,000 persons at the village of Newark. Military run is a small stream running through the center of Newark and discharging into Ganargua Creek about eight miles above the Lyons intake. A large portion of the business sec- tion and some of the residental section of Newark, are drained through this stream into Ganargua Creek and at places before Military run empties into Ganargua Creek the report states that Direct Primary Rally. A direct primary rally rally and ratifi cation meeting was held Thursday evening, August 4th at North Rose. Charles T. Ennis, ex-district-attorney of Wayne county, was present to explain this issue. Addison Weed, of Huron, candidate for Assembly in Wayne coun- ty presided. The meeting was under leanspices of the auspices of the North Rose Direct Primaries Club.

Samples of water taken at the time of the investigation and at previous per- iods and the results of the analysis show that the water of Ganargua Creek contained a large amount of putrifac- tive organic matter. The recommendations offered by the State Health Department were that the Lyons Water Works Company be noti- fied of the existing condition and that all waters from this source be boiled before use, the only remedy being a new supply from a different source. This is a very serious matter for it amounts to Newark being charged with the typhoid epedemic in Lyons. It is a well known fact that at least one of the Newark sewers finds its way Into Mili- tary Brook. Complaints and investiga tions have often been made, but noth- ing has been doqe to relieve the condi tions. It is undoubtedly true that Lyons suffers more from this outrageous condition than does the village of New- ark for, as the state health officials say, the Lyons water supply comes largely from Ganargua Creek for the pollution of that stream between Newark and Lyons amounts to very little. What is going to be done about this matter? Is Lyons going to stand it forever ? Is Newark able to stand the sting of a guilty conscience when she realizes that her sister village is drink- ing the water polluted by Newark citi ze'ns. The\questT6h merely brings to mind afresh the dire need of a sewerage system not only in Newark but ii Lyons also. It is little less than crimi nal, to say nothing of the violation of the law, to dump our sewage into the water mains of Lyons. Bpth of these villages can afford to have a modern sewerage system, and we should think that since the conditions are all realized the people would rather vote in favor of such a proposition than to feel that they are -endangering the health of several thousand people in Lyons, to say nothing of the danger which might result in our own village. It was shame that the proposition to build new sewerage system in Newark, which came before the people several years •***• fx. ft»'.-«ISfa9|j* $20,000 SCHOOL BUILDING The following item from the Sodus Record shows what the Richardson In- surance Agency, consisting of J. L. Transue and Mills Brothers of the Sodus Record, with S. H. Fish as manager, thinks of the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company of Newark, N. J. Some time ago this agency decided to add life insurance to its other lines. The first question to come up was \What is the best company in the United States?\ We wanted fo find out the best company, and then see if we could secure the agency. We investigated the subject for several weeks. Finally the question narrowed down to two com- panies. When the decision was hang- ing fire a letter was sent to an old life insurance agent in Syracuse who was known to be absolutely reliable, asking him what company he deemed the best He did not know the object of the question, soothe answer was'interesdng. It was as follows: \The Mutual Bene- fit Life Insurance Company of Newark, New Jersey, is the best company writ- ing life insurance. It is the company that gives me the hardest opposition, and the one which gives its policy hold- ers the best deal.\ It so happened that this company was one of the two this agency had to decide between The decision was at once made in favor of the Mutual Benefit of New Jersey.

Rev. Charles A. Palma- tier took charge of the meeting. The opening prayer was given by Rev. John C. Ellinwood, of Normal, 111. Mr. Palmatier amjotraced that the speaker to-morrow would be Rev. John Chester Ball of Corning, N. Y., who was formerly pastor of the Newark Park, Presbyterian church. Mr. Palmatier's sermon was listened to with a great deal of interest and, as he himself said, it was different from those which have been given by the other ministers. It was full of many truths and contained many practical suggestions. We quote as follows : Some of you have heard me say per- haps more than once that the much tallied about but poorly practiced— much preached about but badly under- stood—much written about but miser- ably administered thing religion Is no more and no -less thai? the science of getting the best things out of life in all its relations. But since no new truth is discovered by one man alone, I find one who has recently sa*u that \one of the most imporant lessons which ad- vancing civilization teaches us is this: that human happiness and well being depend not so much upon the abun>- dance and magnitude of favorable cir- cumstances as upon our ability to ex- tract from all circumstances the ut- most that they contain for UB,—in brief, upon the art of making; the most of things. This I believe to be a very happy statement of the case. Not simply one, but a series of addresses .might be given upon the single theme which I have placed at the head of these re- markss>-but since the same audience is jaot likely to be assemDled for any two consecutive Sabbaths, and since the need of my fellows is an Immediate aeedr-t-wm make the most of my pres- ent opportunity In trying to say the best that I know how to say without trespassing upon the time which does not belong to me. around; and lastly a contrivance for furnishing health to those who need it and deserve it. I believe that In the scientific method which covers and otherwise lnsur-J mountable difficulty Into beneficent use, and otherwise practically useless material Into a servant for all, lies _ suggestion for us who are digging In the hard ground of human experience. It is a common error to suppose that material gain, comfort, pleasure and happiness can be extracted only from certain favorable conditions. But the truth is that the scientific method, the application of skill, tact and ingenuity will get more of the pure gold of eon tentment and satisfacion out of com- mon things thari the less skillful treat ment can possibly secure under the most favorable conditions. An exceedingly practical phase of the skilled method of getting the most and beHt out of just ordinary condi- tions appears in the simple matter of economy. Economy, however, Is not stinginess. There are altogether too many people who suppose themselves to be economical, when they are simply starving their bodies, stultifying and cramping their intellects and withering their hearts. But there is an economy which we might call the economy of skill as applied to the furnishing of material comforts for our homes. For example, in the matter of providing for the table, the Frenchman has better food out of less expensive material than the American because her applies to It the art of skillful cooking and flavoring. He makes the most and the best of these things. While I am. in hearty accord with anything that will advance the general intelligence, the business opportunles, the social privileges, the political rights of women, no one need be sur- prised to behold very soon a genera- tion of dyspeptics.

The meeting of Eureka Grange No. 46, Patrons of Husbanry, Lyous, was largely attened Saturday afternoon. The first and second degrees were con- fered upon one candidate^ The report of the treasurer was presented, showing a balance of $158 on hand. The sub- ject for discussion, was \What books and periodicals does it pay best to have on the farm.\ This discussion was to have been led by Mrs. Levi Young, but owing to her absence, a general discus- sion was had, led by Lecturer J. Sidney Roys. It was thought than much good was to be obtained from some of the periodicals, but the most of the articies seem to be written by people who know nothing of practical agriculture. Since rural free mail delivery has been so gen- erally established and the fanners can get the daily papers, it was considered that more valuable information could be recieved out of them than from many of the magazines and periodicals. Barge Canal Work. The Barge Canal Bulletin for July contained the following outline of what has been done daring the month on several contracts in this vicinity. Contract No. 46.—For the construc- tion of the canal from Fox Ridge to the southeast corner of the town of Galen, including Lock No. 25, a movable dam at May's Point, bridges, etc. The hydraulic dredge has been clean- ing u p the prism from the westerly end. Piles were driven for west abutment of County line bridge and the pile-driver is being assembled on scow for work at the movable dam site, where the coffer- dams are well advanced. Two drill- boats are working on hard material in the river bed. Contract No. 47.—For the construc- tion of the canal from the southeast corner of the town of Galen to a point near the N. Y. C. & H. R. railway crossing at Lyons, including Lock No. 26, a dam across the Clyde river, high- way bridge, stream entrance, etc. The dredge Clyde has removed about 79,000 cu. yds. of material, making 1,300 linear feet of canal prism. The decrease in the output of the dredge was caused by encountering about 600 linear feet of hard material. At Lock No. 26 about 1,700 cu. yds. of earth were removed and 1,126 cu. yds. of concrete laid in the lock and upper approach wall. Contract No. 49.—For prism con- struction from a point about 500 feet east of Yellow Mills bridge, about one mile west of Palmyra, to the Monroe county line, including Lock No. 30, sluice-gates, highway bridges, culverts, etc.\ The steam-shovel removed about 10,500 cu. yds. of material during the month. The McMyler excavator begai] Tvork on June 22 and removed 1,766 cu. yds. The Browning crane removed 900 cu. yds. from ditches. About 8 acres of contract clearing have been .done during the month. Work has begun on the erection of a mixing plant at the lock site. Contract No. 63.—For enlarging pre- sent canal apd constructing culverts, sluiceways, waste-weir, guard-gates, dock walls, bridges, highway changes, etc, between Wayne-Monroe county line and Kings Bend. No contract work done. Contractors have been erecting buildings and a small amount of plant has been re- ceived at Pittsford. (The most important school meeting in this village in many a year was held at the High School building Tuesday nighty! It was the first regular annual meeting in our history in which the three school districts of the village, which were recently consolidated, met a united body. It opened a new chapter in local school history in that the Board of Education was increased in membership from three trustees to live. ^It officially opened a new line of progress in that it voted in favor of a new $20,000 school building for the north ward, thus actually beginning the ward school system in Newark which has been talked of so long and which lias been so greatly desired on the part uf most of the parents and so imper- atively needed for the welfare of the school children. 1 * It took a long step towards the betterment of conditions In the High School building by voting in favor of having a competent engineer draw plans and specifications at once for a new heating and ventilating sys- tem and directed the Board to report on this matter at an adjourned meeting to lie held on Tuesday evening, September lith. And of no mean importance was the vote in favor of selling the nki school grounds in the north ward and of buying a new site of over 2^ acres on which the new ward school building will be erected. This will give ample room for playgrounds and school gar- dens and all in all will provide the children of the north ward with, for the present at least, the best school facilities in town. The new Board of Education now consists of W. T. Peirson, Elias I). Croucher, C. H. Herrick, Jay Wright and William J. Bronk. Mr. Peirson has served on the Board for a long time and has been the valued clerk of the Board nearly if not all of that time. Mr. Croucher is also an -^Ui member of the Board and one of outmost popular business men. Mr. Herrick, elected for three years,, takes the place of Mr. George A. Burnham whose term of office expired July 31st. He will be a strong member of the Board. At the metting Tuesday night he showed great familiarity with the school law and matters of procedure. Jay Wright, elected for two years, is well known in the village where he has lived all of his life and where he has always led a clean, noble life—one that demands the respect of everybody. He has had considerable • experience in school matters as the honored trustee in the old north district and is heartily welcomed as a member of the enlarged Board. Mr. Bronk, elected for one year, is one of our highly esteemed citizens and very popular in the east ward where he has lived many years. All in all these men will make a fine Board. They find themselves confront- ed with some of the most serious and difficult problems which have presented themselves for solution to any body of men in this village in some years. The work of carrying out all of the improve- ments suggested above will draw heavily upon the time of each of the members of the Board during the coming year and they should be encouraged and backed up by every patriotic citizen. The minutes of Lie meeting are as follows: The annual school meeting of District No. 8 of the Town of Arcadia was held at the High School building Tuesday evening, August 2nd, 1910. The meet- ing was called to order by E. I). Crou- cher, and Charles R. Clark was elected chairman ; Elmer Cunningham, secre- tary and teller; F. M. Phelps, William Plighterand Fred Jackson, tellers. The annual report of the Board of Education, as duly published in the Newark Union-Gazette, 'was read by W. T. Peirson, clerk of the Board, showing total receipts $24,463.23; total expenditures, $23,526.62; cash on hand, $1,936.61. On motion the report as read was accepted and adopted. The Board recommended the follow- ing estimates for expenses for the coming year to be raised by direct tax: For teachers' salaries $9,000.00 Acute Or Chronic—Which ?
