As' the meeting was onthe pofnt . of adjournment Alderman Stokes arose and solemnly ' put the question to" the house, "Who i; places fire hydrants ' in Charlotte, the board , of aldermen i or the executive board?" In explanation of this effort to gain light the speaker said that -he?, had been:' informed this way and ; that way and. consequently didn't know who .did possess f this right. This declaration brought f to his feet Alderman - Kistlerfi s who ; de manded that the section of. the char ter be read bearing on the waterworks question.. This was read but threw no light on the particular point ; at issue.- Then ensued a warm exchange of views as , to the authority ,' of the executive board, , and a third proposi tion was offered that the water board rf.ight have something to do .with the location of hydrants. The answer to Alderman Stokes question was never really given, but a great deal 'of dis cussion of the executive .board, and, of its modud operandi, and of city infer ets in general followed.-.

' , MESSAGE BEAD .(Continued from page 1) an impression : may be- seen ' from a study of the results by which the diplomacy of the United States can be judged, says . the President. ; ; - : , ; He - mentions the arbitration : treat ies . with France ahd ; Great Britain, which failed of" confirmation ; in .the Senate;, the successful tripartite, me diatlon ;; of the Argentine Republic, Brazil and the United States, between Peru' and -Ecuador; the arbitration of the Panama-Costa Rica boundary dis pute;;' the intervention . between Haiti and, the Dominican Republic on the verge -of ; war, ; the . suppression of the Nlcaraguan war, the halting of" inter necine strife,'. in "Honduras, the adjust ment of the Peruvian-Ecuadorean boundary issue. ' . . Win consequence of .these things," says the ... President, there has been a gen eral easing of international tension on the West Coast, of South America He ; also adds that the diplomacy of the United States is active in seeking to assuage the remaining ill "feeling between, this country and Colombia. . Taking up some of the details of the year's diplomatic work,' the President refers with expressions - of pride to China, where, "the policy of encour aging financial investment to ejiable that; country to help itself has had the result of giving new life and prac tical application to the open-door pol icy',. Ttie consistent ., purpose has been to encourage the . use of Ameri can capital in China, says the Presi dent, to promote "the reforms to which that country is pledged by treaty with the United , States ahd other powers. There has been a vigorous - assertion, also, he says, of the equal right of the United States to a voice ; in all ques tions pertaining to Chinese loans and developments. ' President" Taft . makes the direct charge that . the terrible events re corded in Nicaragua recently, the use less, loss of life,1 the devastation of property, ; the bombardment of the principal ' cities, the killings and the tortures and suffering, "might have been averted had ' the ' Department of State, through approval of the loan convention by the Senate, been per mitted to carry out its now well de veloped policy." ln Central America the aim has been' to help such countries as Nica ragua and Honduras to v help them selves," says President Taft. While they are "the immediate bene ficiaries, the profit to the United States is two-fold, he adds. The Monroe doctrine is more vital in the neighbor hood of the Panama Canal, and such countries should be relieved of the jeopardy of heavy foreign debts like ly to . provoke international complica tions. The financial rehabilitation of these countries by American bankers and the protection of .their customs houses from being the prey of would-be dic tators; says the President, would re move the menace 'of foreign creditors and revolutionary" disorder. Further more the," UnJ ted States -would profit largely in a business way through the development of the great natural re Sources of Central America. '; Commending the successful results of the application of the new neutral ity laws to Mexico and other troubled countries the"'; President suggests that means le - found in addition to pre vent the. professional revolutionists from making American ports "foci" for revolutionary intrigue. ., He reiter ates his ' determination to adhere in the , case of -Mexico to the "patient policy of non-intervention, steadfast recognition, of - constituted authority, and V the exertion of . every effort to protect American interests." .' Other, paragraphs of the message point to -the ( increase of American do mestic " exports by $20,000,000 during the past year making the- greatest to tal ever, known, $2,200,000,000; to the agricultural credit system which " he thoroughly "endorsed," to the probable necessity of an amendment of the fur seal act to permit limiting killing of seals;; to a -meeting of the arbitrators in Washington next year to adjust the - pecuniary ; claims between Great Britain and - America; to negotiations with. Mexico for the distribution of the '.waters of the Colorado River in the Imperial . Valley section; and to the financial rehabilitation of Liberia. There "is merely historical reference to the Chinese revoution; to the San Domingan troubles, the rebellion in Cuba "and the-" Balkan war develop ments, in which it is said the United States is not involved. ' The message -concludes with an earnest . appeal to7 Congress to co operate with-the executive in Its ef forts to apply the old principles of diplomacy which have governed the the country, the momentous new sit uations of .today, , when America finds Itself at the -threshold of her middle age as a Nation; "too mature to con tinue in its 'foreign relations those temporary " expedients natural to a people to whom domestic affairs are the sole, concern.", '.
