e Club's free library will be op-
ened next week. This la another and
a most commendable move on the
part of the members. Free libraries
are recognlaed by Andrew Carnegie,
the world famous millionaire philan-
thropist, aa an effective source of edu-
cation and moral development, and
though the Civic Club la not as well
fixed financially as he, they can and
are doing their part towards making
of Orange a City of culture and pro-
gressive energy.
The opening of fifth street and the
cleaning of tha atreeta and alleys of
the city are monuments to the pro-
gressive spirit of the members of the
Civic Club and show what a company
of determined women "caa do for the
good of their town.
We neglected to mention, however,
the cow ordinance, which was passed
directly through their work, which bps
been commended so highly by all who
love neatnesa and order.

Terrell election law
Nearly every provision of the act
ia calling for the highest advice out
aide of the courts, and the department
kept busy anawering the many let

haa Just answered the following ques-
tions sent in by County Judge 8. H.
Wood of Duval county
1. How do the nominees of district
and county conventions get tbelr
names cm the official ballot? It Is pro-
vided ia the Terrell election law bow
the names for State offices are to be
placed on the official ballot of each
county. But the law does not seem
to contain any specific direction pro-
viding for the placing of the namee of
diatrict and county nominees on the
official ballot.
t. Who paya for printing the names
of candidates of a political party for
8tate office on the official ballot and

to whom and when must the payment

4. Who pays for printing the nancee

I. Does the. commissioner* court

nees of political parties for State, dis-
trict and county offices on the official
ballot, and afterward collect the
money? And If yea to the last pro-
ceeding. from whom and when must
the payment be collected, and how
shall It be apportioned between the
State, dlstrie* sad county candldatea

the local trains were abandoned on
account of disabled engines.
Albany, N. Y., Jan. 5—-Thla morning
the thermometer here registered 25

rcorded here in 28 years.
framers did nof deem it probable that
'an endeavor to prevent the building
of the canal would be made.
Colombia's appeal was not In good
taste. It Is contended, after the rejec-
tion of tbé canal treaty.
Recognition of Panama was Justified
by the refusal of Colombia to do the
bidding of the United States, and the
necessity Jpt- the "canal. In view "of
the recent extension of our territorial
dominion," has become a paramount
matter, rendering Just any step neces-
sary to achieve ft. The pían proposed
by Colombia In order to get hold of the
140.000,000 to be paid to the canal com-
pany would, it Is alleged, have assured-
ly embroiled her with Prance and
added new complications, besides in-
definitely postponing the canal.
Colombia is denounced as selfish and
forgetful alike of "International ob-
ligations and of the dutiea and re-
sponsibilities of sovereignty." The
Unfted States are said to occupy a
position as mandatory of civilization"
which is recognized by the nations of
the world when they recognize the
new republic.
The president is at a lose to compre-
hend the views of those who do not
approve the action in helping out the
new republic, and who see no distinc-
tion between the particular revolution
and other* of a similar sort. He holds
that use of force to put down the revo-
lution or permission to Colombia to
use force Would have defeated Ameriv
can rights and the intereats of the
"civilized world."
In conclusion, he states that the
question before the congress Is not the
recognition of tfie republic of Panama
which he declarea to be an accompliah-
ed fact, but "whether we shall build
an Uthmian canal."
