He told the legislators that: "The power to appropriate does not mean that public funds be improvi dently spent or wasted. It does not mean that the state should pursue policies, regarding its public institu tions, that are wasteful. The care, fidelity and economy of the successful private business should be applied to the affairs of the state. Economy is a public virtue, as well as a, private one, and while I favor all necessary appropriations for all public needs, I recommend that care and caution be used in making appropriations.

That the state should investigate as to the possibilities of water power de velopment in the state before attempt ing any comprehehnsive legislation and to that end suggests the appro priation of a small sum for investiga tion. That instead of increasing the num ber of supreme judges or creating additional appellate courts, the su preme court sit in divisions and thus hear more cases.

That the judiciary should be re moved from politics by providing for a non-partisan bench, elected without political appellations appearing on election ballot.

STEAMER ON REEF _ \ URANIUM STRANDED IN STORM NEAR HALIFAX. 880 ARE TAKEN OFF SAFELY Captain and Crew Remain Aboard Ship.—Steerage Passengers Are Frightened. Halifax.—The steamer Uranium of the Uranium Steamship company, bound from Rotterdam for Halifax and New York, stranded on a reef during thick weather near the Uhebuc to head light station, nine miles below Halifax, at 11 o’clock Sunday and at night wa£ still held fast in the grip of the rock shore. Her 800 passengers, 100 in the cabin and the rest in the steerage, were taken off the steamer by the government steamer Lady Laurier and a small fleet, of harbor craft and were safely landed in Hali fax. Although surf boats had to be used in transferring the hundreds of pass engers to the rescue boats, the work was safely accomplished and not a life was lost. Captain Eustace and his crew re mained aboard ship which is still hanging by her bow on the reef. The captain hopes to get the steamer off at low water. The escape of a vessel from such a predicament is usually made at high water, but the captain thinks the weight of the afterpart of the steamer will gradually drag the Uranium free as the tide goes down. There was much alarm, especially among the steerage passengers when the ship struck but the officers and sailors soon succeeded in restoring calm. The rescue boats arrived at 2 p. m. and the transfer of the Uranium passengers was begun at once. The surf boats from the life saving station and the life boats of the Uranium were used. The lardy Laurier took women and children first and then the men were transferred to the bidg£water. A heavy southwest wind was blow ing when the Uranium ran ashore and the steamer was therefore pro tected by Chebucto head. The steamer struck head-on when the tide was half high and late in the afternoon her bow was six feet out of the water while there was seven fathoms of water under her amid ships and seventeen fathoms at the stern. The plates at the bow were ripped open and No. 1 hold was flooded. The weather continued heavy and working steamers are standing by the Uranium to rescue the crew should necessity arise. Packing Plant Burns. Calgary, Alberta,—The packing plant of P. Burns & Co. was de stroyed by fire today. The loss, in cluding meat in cold storage, prob ably will be in excess of $2,000,000. On account of the low water pressure the fire department was unable to do effective work and at a late hour the tire was still raging. The loss is serious, because the plant was the largest of its kind in this part of Canada. The storage plant contained from 15,000 to 20,000 carcasses. The property was insured, including the stock in storage, for about $1,000,000. Lives Week With Broken Neck.
