MILFORD VOTES DRY TUESDAY WETS ARE BEATEN BY FORTYNINE MAJORITY Van Buren towship, in which Milford is located, voted “dry” i Tuesday by a majority of 49. Ev-I ery precinc in the township gave a , “dry” majority. The first precinct I gave a majoiity of one; th?! second 15 and the third precinct 33. The “drys” consider this a great victory, as the “wets” had worked hard to put Milford back where it was a few years ago when the town voted for the open saloon. Milford is “dry” now and the ( election means two more years of , the same thing. The white ribbon- ' ers took an active part in the elections for the “drys.” Syracuse Wins Again The second base-ball game of the season was played here Sunday, with Vawter Park.

PRAYER. I Communication with his Maker by prayer is the most exalted function in which man can be engaged because R exercises the highest functions of the soul with the intellect and the world. It is the channel of heaven’s choicest blessings. It excludes no one. It embraces all in the I circle of its benediction, it gives us access to our Heavenly Father at all times, in all places and under all circumstances. In a word, prayer renders us co-op-erators with our Creator in the moral government of the world. —Cardinal Gibbons. HAVE SURRENDERED THEIR FRANCHISE Syracuse Power & Light Company Take Advantage Os New Law The Syracuse Power & Light Company have taken advantage of the utility law passed by the last legislature which gives a public utility company the privilage of surrendering their franchise pending an investigation by a commission as to whether the rates and other conditions are fair. An interview with one of the stockholders of this company was had Wednesday and this gentleman slated that to the best of his knowledge the management had no objection to the present rates or the terms of the franchise. They give up their franchise so that they may be under the supervision of the state commission, which is a permanent board, and not under the direction ts the town board, which is subject to change. In a nutshell the matter is this,instead of operating under a franchise with the town, they do business under a contract with the state utility commission and any change of rates or terms will be at the discretion of the state authoritities rather than with the governing body of our town.
