Edward Meisner spoke in a similar manner. Judge George W. Klett, representing Louise §.

The B. & K. company which will soon occupy the new factory on Ellis | street; petitioned the board for grad- ing the'street. The chairman thought that the work should include from | Cherry to Stanley street and the en- | glneer was authorized to prepare an | estimate of the cost. A communication signed by Alder- man Paonessa asking that Paradise park be placed in presentable condi- tion was read. The situation at the park are somewhat complicated due to the practice made by children of using it for a plavground. The chairman of the board was in favor of grading one half of it and using the other for playground purposes, but owing to the labor problem con- fronting the board it was decided to table the matter.

Hearings were ordered on petitions for sewers in Daly and on Roberts streets. A petition for a grade on Forest street was referred to the engineer for an estimated cost. The same course was taken on a petition for a curb and macadam on East street between Kelsey and Henry street. Hearings were ordered on petitions for a curb and macadam on Burritt street from Broad to Osgood avenue and for the adoption of building lines on both sides of Cedar street from West Main street to Lake street. Flag or concrete walks were ordered laid on the following streets on or before October 15: East side of East street between Jubilee and Beldon street, both sides of Whitman street and on Kelsey, from East to Chapman street. The petition for a curb and macadam on Oak street was laid over. Engineer Hall reported that i{he cost of building a sewer on Lincoln street to the town line would be $7.000. The matter of the acceptance of Francis street was taken up and it was voted to recommend the accept- ance when the property owners grade the street satisfactory to the en- gineer. VILLAGE IN FLAMES.

Hughes, delivered at Carnegie Hall Monday night, in accepting the Re- publican nomination for President of the United States. The interest in Mr. Hughes's utterances was keen throughout political circles—had been keen for weeks. Among Democrats—Cabinet officers, Senators and Representatives, and others of less prominence in the affairs of the dominant party—there was a disposition to criticize Mr. Hughes on the ground that he offered no remedy for the conditions which he assailed President Wilson for creating. have done case, in Mexico, the Lusitania and the other matters that he badly?” was the common form of criticism offered by friends of the Ad- ministration. It was apparent unless Mr. Hughes supports his charg- es by statements as to the policies he would have adopted, or will adopt to meet the conditions with which Presi- dent Wilson was and is confronted, the Democratic plan of campaign will be to point out to the voters that the Republican wdidate no con- structve program or any remedies for prevailing troubles. Among Republicans the tendency was to praise Mr. Hughes for his criti- cism of the Administration and to commend the speech as a clear pre- sentation of the issues confronting the country. There was unanimity of opinion among Republicans that Mr. Hughes was a master of English, and there seemed to be an honest belief in Republican quarters that the Presi- dential candidate could talk in a way that everybody would understand. When it was suggested to a Repub- lican—for the purpose of drawing him out—that Mr. Hughes might have put a little more “punch’” in certain por- tions of his speech, the Republican come-back was as follows: “The speech has sufficlent ‘punch’ for this stage of the campaign. Mr. Hughes intends to wage this campaign on a high plane, and while there are a number of things he might say that would lean toward personalities, you | will find that he will eschew such campaigning. There is vim all through the speech. There will be more ‘punch’ as the campalgn progresses. It would be foolish to shoot one's heaviest charge of ammunition at the first shot. The Hughes 'speech con- tains all the fire that an opening ut- terance should have, and is a fore- runner of victory. To the Democratic criticism that Mr. Hughes offered no remedies for most of the conditions affecting our foreign relations which he asserted Mr. Wilson had failed to meet in a statesmanlike way, the Republican answer was that if Mr. Hughes had been President he would not have permitted these conditions to occur, but would have followed firm policies that would have upheld the national honor without bringing the country into hostilities. Among some Republicans there was | disappointment over what was regard- ed as the failure of Mr. Hughes to lay down a platform of constructive poli- cies, but most of the Republican poli- | ticians who commented on the speech | explained that Mr. Hughes did not intend his acceptance address to be a full exposition of what the people might expect of him to do if he suc- ceeded Mr. Wilson in the White House One view was that Mr. Hughes had prepared his speech as a lawyer pre- | i pared his brief, giving only the outline of his case as a foundation for more detailed ements.
