NEW POLICY PROVES POPULAR
That the Gateway’s campaign to put
a quietus on the noisy trouble-maket s
and breeders ut dissention in this town
meets with general approval, is quite
evident from ttie words of encourage
ment received by tbe publishers. t)n
every baud, since the first editorial
was published, commendation and
praise for our course lias been freely
given. Two prominent business men,
heads of two separate concerns, com
bined and presented tbe Gateway
with a case of ‘wet goous, and a tag
on tbe box read, “Keep up the good
work!“ Another leaning firm sent a
box of c'gars and an aecompaning card
had written on it, “We like your edi
torials. Keep up the tight. An
other business bouse told one of tbe
publishers that if the Gateway lost any
business through its light on vicious
ness and indolence, to pul him down
for a substantial monthly subscription,
to make up the deficiency in revenues.
The Gateway publishers are begin
ning to realize that they have been
direlict in their duty to the public by
not taking a more desided stand on
local matters, such as these under dis
cussion at this time.
\Ye tind that it is entirely useless to
seek to treat these malcontents with
courtesy aud consideration, as in the
past. They ihave no concept roq of
common ethics. 1 hey merit only con
detonation, ridicule and contempt,
until they learn some of the lessons of
life. _
Ingenious Fire Alarm System
Sergeant ^ rooman, in charge of the j
local cable service, has installed an au-j
tomatic tire alarm system in the cable)
office, consisting of thermostats con
nected to a battery and electric bell.;
The convex plates in the thermostats
will expand with an abnormal heat so
as to make an electrical contact and
ring the bell, giving warning of
danger. ___
Sir Robert Harvey has returned
from a big game hunt and secured as
trophies two moose and two mountain
sheep heads. Andrew Simons was his
o-uide. Sir Robert plans on tetuining
here next sea>on.

Aeroplane flying
imposes unforeseen
and trying conditions on a
watch. The aeroplane
v'ibrates constantly. It tilts
at all angles. Often it lands
with a jolt that would ruin
the balance-wheel of many
a watch.
The Wright Brothers had most
r unsatisfactory experiences with all
=■ the watches they tried in Europe
and America—until they adopted
the HOWARD.
The HOWARD Watch is
the finest practical timepiece in the
world. Its special hard-tempered steel
balance cannot jolt out of true with the
roughest service. The HOWARD ad
justment is permanent.
Every HOWARD is made and ad
justed as a fine watch. Cased and timed
in its own case by the HOWARD watch
makers.
The price of the HOWARD is fixed
—$40 to $ 150—and a printed price-ticket
attached.
We carry this distinctive watch and
would like to show it to you. ,
