' Rome—^Official announcement is made here that King Victor Emmanuel had declined to accept the resignation of Premier Salandra. The Salan-dra cabinet is to be retained without change. ^Although it was made known un
officially tffat Signor Salandra would remain at the head of the government, Ujiis announcement was received with gjreat demonstrations of rejoicing and manifestations in favor of war,
; When the soldiers of the barracks aj; Castro Pretoria learned that OPre-
Sier Saiandra was to remain in power ey began, an enthusiastic demonstra
tion in favor of war and went to their commander, Colonel Baistrocchi. The cMoned said .he would, not yei give expression to his feelings, but hoped to be able to address them in a few days in the way that he- would like toj do.
uThe excitement at Milan subsided oh receipt of the neWs of Premier SalaBr dra's retention. The. general strike there' passed off "Without serious inci-, d«nt, although there was a demon-' •St ration in favor of war on the part of) a crowd estimated a t 40,000. Similar demonstrations oeeurred at Florence,' Naples, Messina, Bologne, Palermo and Catania.
The trend of events is considered most significant, particularly in view of I th efaet that clashes between Ital- ; iap. and Austrian troops are reported, toi be ocouring on the frontier. The Austrians, according to* one report, hafe attempted to oross the boundary at,one point, but were repulsed by the Italians, .who took one prisoner.

The water in the St. Lawrence this spring is very low, compared to other years and there is no chance of its rising very materially.
'Boatmen are experiencing* much trouble in getting thPir 'boats in and out ot their "boat nouses, espeehiHy those who own fishing boats -and- hauL|
.them into the iipuses. Quite a few jboat house -which have had water nearly up to their floors in former years, are now away out of water and the docks are altogether too high for comfort in getting in or out of boats. . , One or two parties who have every year hauled their^ boats into shallow water, are this year experiencing trouble, in getting their craft into deeper water. Shoals which ordinarily are good spots for fishing during the summer, are now showing their rocks above water, and boats are not able to go where they have heretofore been
i,able_ to travel.
The town board held a meeting on Wednesday at which quite a good lot of business was* done. The question of building sidewalks on the approaches to the bridge at Massena Springs was discussed and a resolution was adopted authorizing their construction at once. The number of feet of walk that the town will have to make has not yet been determined, but it will probably be from the 'bridge.to the Ba'bcock store on the east and from the bridge to Hatfield street on the west at the north end and there will be a short stretch on each side at the south end of the bridge.
Franklin Derosia, who was appointed temporary town clerk to succeed the late Ralph Andrews, tendered his resignation and F. A. Hough was appointed to take his place. Mr! Hough will have his office at the town hall.
The superintendent of highways was instructed to serve a notice on the St. Lawrence River t Power Company warning them -against doing any damage to the Massena (Center bridge while engaged in the work of dredging the river at th"at -place.
(Resolutions of respect were adopted upon the death of the late town clerk, Ralph Andrews.
'The matter of the EarJ Creek bridge was taken up. One of--the abutments of the -bridge collapsed, as* told in this paper a few weeks ago, and the bridge has been closed -since. Tjra matter was laid on the table and the "board adjourned until Wednesday of this week in order to ascertain the extent of the damage and wha |4s needed in the work of repairing-the structure. In this connection County {Superintendent of Highways Joseph Howard-came to Massena on Thursday an& went down with the town officials to look over the bridge. He stated that he would communicate with the state department of highways and have a bridge expert sent to Massena for the purpose of - -giving aay-^lwfo^wiatioTi and assistance to the hoard in the plans for the rebuilding of the bridge.

Misses Margaret and Lucille O'Brian of Massena High School were home ov-'er Sunday. v
Mother's Day. Sunday, May 9, was Mother's Day in
North Stockholm. In a few of the homes the day was fittingly "observed. In other homes the inhabitants never knew it was the most appropriate day of the whole year. Mother's, Day is a tribute that the nation pays to the woman who have borne her sons and daughters, the women who have given their own travail to bring into the
. world the men, and women who will tomorrow honor in their thoughts the love that passeth every love save that of God's.
There is nothing in the world that compares ' with the sacredness of a mother's love. It outlives absence, neglect and crime. It is the love that never fails. The day brings back beautiful and sacred tboug4f"<""""*6£ the past, and there are thousands of men who will echo the sentiment in the exquisite verses of George Brengle:
"Sometimes in the hush of the eV^ifilg When the shadows creep from the
west, I think of the twilight songs you sang
and the boy you lull'd to rest— The wee little boy wtih the tousled
head *' ' That so long ago was thine,
I wonder if sometimes you long for that boy,
O little mother of mine?
And cow hei'has come to man's estate,, • Grown stalwart in body and string,
And you'd hardly "know that ,he was the lad
Whom you lull'd with your slumber-song. . ,
The years have altered the form and the life, .
But his heart is'unchanged by time; • And still he is only .thy .boy* as of old, < O little mother of mine!"
Clean Up Week in Stockholm. Monday, Ma^ 24, marks the begin
ning of clean-up all through this.ges-tion. Spring's work will be done then, and omst every farmer, property-" holder and renter have anticipated the occasion and are planning a week -of hard work and civic pride.
From all sides there has come a spirit of hearty ^-operation ,oa the part of our citizens, who s$e§n to..f>e filled with a spirit of pride and a -genuine desire to make the town of Stockholm a sure-enough Spotjess farm comunity of northern New York.
•And, while you're doing such-a good job cleaning up your premises, why not do a little personal missionary work? There are cobwebs in many characters that need to be .swept away; dust . that obscures the vision and makes things seem- wary when all you need is a little personal house-cleaning of .your own, if with the rubbish of the back yard, and barn, ygui can get rid of the malice and greed],
