connection with the supervisorial nom¬ ination. Internal Revenue Collector Harry P. Keith Is accredited with be¬ ing the Richelieu of the Nassau Coun¬ ty Democracy—and Richelieu, as you aad I know, was tbe real king of BVanoe in everything exicept name. "The character of Richelieu," one of the hiHtorlans tells u.h, "Is one of those that moralists and historians delight to discuss. There is no question bui that be waa unscrupulous in the means that he used." Strictly apeak- ittg, pertiBips, the parallel between the ancient and the modem should here cease. And perhapa an apology is due the memory of the old Cardinal for thus dragging his name Into tho Democratic polltlca ot Nassau County

The parts, .sundries, and supplies are standard and fully guaranteed. "True other garages and business con- cerna hare tried this and without mu<:h success; and why? Has any other merchant given the customer the benefit of the discounts and the abolition of a complicated sysctem of bookkeeping?" said Mr. Post to a rep¬ resentative of this paper when inter¬ viewed this morning. He talked very freely on this vital question.

The approaching town election with It's primaries suggests the story of William H. Taft's eCTorta to reform a Repu8>llc«n primary In the old 5th Ward of Cincinnati. The ex-Presl¬ dent tella it himself in one of the ohspters of "Popular Oovemmenf (Tale University Press), In which he oontrasta the primary with the con¬ vention, to the disadvantage of the former It may be said. "Our pre¬ cinct," he said, "had frequently been rerpresenteil in loo/al Republican con- ventiofis by a man named Martin Mui¬ doon, who wa.s reiport,ed to have made a modest competence in this service. Ijlvlng In the sajpo precinct with me was another reformer named Aaron Ferris. He had a most solemn coun- lemiiK'o and a voice and bearlag of the most monitory and minatory kind. He was a perfect Puritan in type. We agreed that soiiuitliinK ought to be done to oust Martin trom his repre¬ sentative functions .Accordingly we drummed up as many Reriubllcan voler.'< a.H wo could throagh tho pre¬ cinct and urged them to be alive to their political duties and attend the primary.
"But we found that we were likely to be swamped by many Democrat.s who hfld always voted for Martin in a Republican primary in honorable re¬ turn for aid which Martin Tid his Republican voters gavo aome candl- da/te of their'g in a Democratic pri¬ mary. It was agreed that we could only escape this result by securing one of the Judges, and by energy in challenging. Ferris' qualifications fit¬ ted htm exactly, for the Judgeship and my then somewhat formidable proportions. (Young Taft then weighed scant,300 pounda and waa built in proportion) seemed to make It appropriate for me to take the of- ftoe of outside challenger. The plan was put through without awokins the suepiclons ot Martin to the extent of (Cootlnoed on Tage 4.)

The Post garage has been so re¬ constructed that the entire lower floor can be deroted to the repairing and storage ot cars. A large seren-foot pit for orerhaallng pui^posea was put in. The upper tloor is partitioned oft into an ofllice and the finest Snd handiest supply room on the Island. There is opportunity to display every type of supply and sundry.

This has no doubt been a long felt want and now will be realized. This wiJl transform the heretofore unsightly condition of thb wide and beautiful street.
The lepairing of all the streets within the incorporated village will be done a.H soon as the weather will permit. The discharge of Louis Strohson, police officer, by the presi¬ dent was sanctioned by the Board of Trustees. Joseph Nau was duly ap¬ pointed to his place.
An appropriation of $600 for tho purchase of a chassi.s for the hose wagon was voted. M\ bills were audited paid. This, completing the business of the evening, motion to adjourn was carried.

Among those preaent were: Kx- Cangressman William Cox. ex-Seoator Bailey, Senator Thompson, Aasembly- men MeWhinney and Murphy, Nelson B. Kilmer, Supervlaors Smith, Cox.

Moran, chairman o tMaratime Aa- sociation and president ot the Moron Towing Company.
The meeting was presided over by Major Dent, who represented the Federal Government. In his addreai the major said ha had called this meeting for the puri>os« of finding out what the people of Ix)ng Island had done or were willing to do to oo- operate with the Federal Govern ment In the cons-lructlon of a canal from Jamaica Bay to tho Peconic Bay and through the various bays and bodies of water Inland on ths South Side of Long Island.
The proposed canal Ls to be one hundred feet wide aiul six feel deep at mean low water.
.Major Dent further hLated that the Federal goverrmient expected the State to furnish the right of way and to take care of ail bridges, both as to maintenance and construction, that mlKlil cros.s the proposed canal; tliat the Federal government would m((rely consider an appropriation for the diedKiiiK nnd construction of the canal.
The Major then called upon vari¬ ous members of the town boards, citi¬ zens and private owners, to state to what extent they would co-operate in the matter of providing disposal areas lo be used for placing tbe solid matter dredged from the canal dur¬ ing the next twenty years, by con¬ sent Snd without title. He received a unanimous aaaurance that areas double the extent of those required would be at the disposal ol the Fed¬ eral government.
Mr. Iitmac read a proi>08ed bill which had been framed by Nelaon B. Kilmer, ot the State Waterways (.Commission, which called for an ap¬ propriation ot 1995,000 for the pur- j pose of right of way and marnteo- ance of the proposed canal.
The t>ill was unanimously approved and delivered to Assemblyman Me¬ Whinney, who was asked to introduce it ill the legislature.
When Assemblyman MeWhinney re¬ ceived the bill, he aVose In company with Senator Thompson and Assem- Ijiymaii Murphy, saying: "Major and Kentlciiiin, we go to All)any on the four o'clock train to-night to raise that million. We hcbo when it gets to Washington that the Federal gov¬ ernment will act as prompbly."
Mr. Kilmer stated that the State Canal Liard wus prepared to com¬ plete the canal system ot the State by 1916; that Ibeiv would be no false economy, and that lack ot funds would not hold it up.
Mr. .Stratton called attention to the advantages of harbor facilities In tbs Jamaica Bay in connection with ths proposed canal.
