is Result of Forester
pjnciiot's Dismissal "
A Well Known Congressman Remark
ed Today That the President's Ac
tion in Relieving Pinchot .of Official
Duties May be the Political Axe- to
Cleave the Republican' Party
Shadow of Roosevelt is Reflected..
Washinston, Jan. 8. "The removal
of Chief Forester Pinchot . by Presi
dent Taft, will 'result in bringing about
a situation which may be so far reach
ing as to split the Republican party
up fhe back," was the sentiment" of a
veil known Congressman today, 'jit
is now practically a case of Roosevelt
against iull whu me iNauonai -uepub-lican
convention of 1912 as the final
scene cf the tragedy. ' The drastic ac
tion of the President was by no means
unex:ecied. but it was not thought it
would' be done in such a sensational
manner. This same man says the vote
yesterday on the Ballinger-Pinchot
resolutions -shows the insurgents are
nearly in the saddle. That Taft deem
ed the "insubordination"' of Pinchot of
sufficient importance ; to consult his
cabinet adds to the significance of his
act, for it is construed by many" to
mean that the Ballinger-Pinchot con
troversy has now assumed an impor
tant national issue. - Many see in it
the shadow of Roosevelt, with a, split
in the administration -forces in. Con
gress inevitable. . . , ,.v ,". ' . ' - :-

This Evening.
v Tonight Wilmington's entire down

nated with-the Tungsten arches as the
final blocks first included in thedis
trict to be lighted were equipped with
the arches today. These blocks are
on Front, ; between Grace and Red
Cross streets. It was originally plan
ned, to have the - arches ' on these two
blocks ' when it v was decided to in
crease v the - number of Tungsten
arches.- A portion, of the material was
delayedjn transmission and therefore
the North Front street blocks could
uui oe completed at the same time
as the others. A force of workmen
from theV Tidewater : Power Company
has been busily engaged today in sus
pending; .the: arches on Front from
Grace to Red .-Cross streets and Cthis
evening he.. principal ; thoroughfare

tering, flashing Tungsten elobes!
-A's' - will be : remembered, the first
suggestion for. the Tungsten system of
lighting, came fronx- Alderman B. O.
Stone, a progressive and enterprising
citizen. He was thoroughly coiarnizant:
of the fine advertising results the city
will receive from " the arches. There
fore he put forth every energy to se
cure the lights for the iown-town dis- i
trict. The success which attended, his
efforts is illustrated in the brilliant
lighting of the down town: business
district as now are .equipped:? with the
Tungsten lights. .. ' i
