It was brought out that this did not include the sew- work and it was explained that the committee intended installing a septic tank. Judge Gaffney inquired if the health board would permit the installation. E. O. Kilbourne said sep- tic tanks are installed in many places where no regular sewer system exists. The plan is perfectly feasible, said Mr. Kilbourne. : On the question of paying for the Mr. Traut said a building fund of $29,000 exists, money left from other work. The only question in the mind of Judge Gaffney was whether the money could be used without direct permission from the board of finance taxation.

POLITICAL GAMPAIGN TO GENTER IN MAINE McCormick and Cummings Conier; | @ 0. P. May Work There Too New York, July 6.—Vance McCor- mick, chairman of the Democratic National committee, believes that there is a lot of truth in the old po- litical adage, “As goes Maine so goes the nation.” Yesterday he called in Homer S. Cummings, of Stamford, Conn., vice chairman of the national committee and head of the speakers’ bureau, and discussed plans for mak- ing the September campaign in the Pine Tree state one of the old-fash- | icned, rip-snortin’ kind. | The Maine election is usually a red- | hot affair, and it wouldn’t be in the least surprising if the democrats per- suaded President Wilson to.make a speech or two there this year. Hot Conference Planned. In a general way Mr. McCormick and his advisers are planning to make | former Maine elections look like pink teas compared to the coming one. | Cabinet officers, United States sena- | tors, congressmen and democrats of | oratorical renown will be hustled into the state as soon as congress adjourns. And then the fur will begin to fly. ! There is an additional reason for | democratic anxiety over Maine this vear, and that is the re-election of United States senator Johnson. The latter is a democrat, and while the | members of President Wilson’s party | have a comfortable majority in the | | senate, they don't want to lose any | | more senators than they have to this fall. There is also a governor to be elected in Maine this September. Republicans May Start There. Justice Hughes was urged yesterday to begin his campaign in Maine and thus prevent the democrats from prancing too much in the limelight. The request came from Fred Hale, | who is the republican candidate to succeed Senator Johnson. Mr. Hale called on the presidential nominee vesterday. There have heen reports that sev- eral progressives, among them Everett Colby, of New Jersey, and James R. Garfield, of Ohio, will augment the galaxy of republican orators in Maine during the latter part of August. WLEAN ARGUES FOR BIRD RESERVES Wants Funds for Protection-No | More Free Seeds Washington, July 6.—Brief pleas by Senator McLean of Connecticut for adequate appropriations for the man- agement of federal bird reservations and for the investigation aid eradica- tion of a disease that is threatening to cause extinction of wild ducks in Utah and elsewhere, marked the con- sideration of the agricultural appro- priation bill in the senate. Mr. Mc- Lean pointed out the dangerous char- acter of the duck disease, which is intestinal, and said that unless it 1is | checked, the duck tribe is apt to be wiped out completely. He asked why the allotment of money for bird res- ervations was reduced. Mr. McLean said in part: “Mr. President, I do not think that the reduction of this appropriation will be in the interest of economy. If I understand this demand, it is for the protection of Big Lake, as the senator from North Dakota (Mr. Gronna) has said, for Sullys Hill park, and for some other reserves for which at present there are no funds. There are some 70 of these bird re- serves in the country. T am informed by reliable parties that something like 100,000 wild fowl were killed in vio- lation of law on Big Lake during the last season. The hunters respect no season, but they kill the wild fowl at all times. “It is very important that these re- serves should have a reasonable sum appropriated for their protection. 1 am quite certain that this money is felt to be necessary by those who have the responsibility of policing the re- serves. 1 certainly hope that the amendment of the committee will be rejected. Otherwise we shall have some of the most important of thes reserves entirely without protection. | I repeat, it has been reported to me that 100,000 ducks were killed in one of those reserves in one season, In violation of the law and without any regard to the open and closed sea- sons.” No More Seeds. Senator Brandegee of Connecticut voted to strike from the agricultural appropriation bill the provision for distribution of free government seeds The amendment was adopted. He had previously voted for Senator Norris' amendment providing that free seeds, etc., should be distributed by the gov- ernment to persons actually request- ing them. That amendment, agalnst which Senator McLean voted, was de- feated, so that there will be nothing doing in free seeds unless the house conferees on the agricultural bill stand pat and force the senate to Columbia Quartette Records— An Inspiration OLUMBIA male quartette record- ings bring out the harmony of four voices with superb artistic effect.
