Stanley Matthews expresses the stall
wsrt view rs follows: on tell you just
how strong | want government TO be.
n, in the darkest corner OF the South,
there il poor man who is citizen OF
the United states, and another man, on
any pretence. unlawiully deprives him
of any OF his rights, l would provide
the government with arms long enough
and strong enough TO lay out its shield
over his prosecutors to justice, to pun
i.hment, and, il necessary, to death"
That has vigorous ring, and it gener-
ally commands applause. Ii works well,
Just so long as the national government
is OF our kind politically, and the law
breaker is of the other party. Bat sup
posing the national government
should get into the hands OF
the wicked Democrats, and
the army aud navy should he used TO
put down what We believe to be right,
should We still demand strong govern
mentf Finally, what can the national
government do in the way OF keeping
the peace that the local government can
not do? Shall We overthrow the means
OF peace, the trial by jury, all the An
glo-Saxon guards Of human rights? ii
We do not, We still come back to the law

or State government reaches Quits arm.
And it is much safer to trust the local
government in the long run. 1t knows
the people better. 1t throws the re-
sponsibility on the people themselves.
A concentrated government, whatever
its name, is inimical to liberty. Local
self-government is the very jewel Of our
institutions, to be defended to the last.

In submitting my annual report, a. re-
quired by Law, ! have deemed Il proper
that the taxpayers and citizens should be
informed Of the condition Of the town and
Its financial standing at the present time.
The finances Of the town arc In . healthy
condition. considering the dullness Of bust.
ness tho past year. The revenue from the
different branches Of business has oonsid-
erably decreased. and we're 10 not for the
eurtailment OF the running expenses Of
the town In the beginning Of the year. and
the strictest economy on the part Of the
Town Trustees, the town debt would have
been increased instead Of lessened.
Tho water works and everything CON-
nectsd with them 10 In excellent condi-
ton. The hydrants and mains have been
kept In the best working order.
The streets are al In good repair. and
have been kept 90 with very little expense
10 the town. The sewers are all In good
order. Al the cost OF new sewer and re-
pairs on old 0nes 10 always very heavy. the
Board have not done any work upon such
only where there wss sxtrsms necessity.
The ofacsrs Of ths town have been faith
full and energetic In The disehafgS Of their
duties. Ths poli0 force, thonghesmall.
has done much In keeping % hat element
which 70 20 much annoyance 70 every
community. Dangerous and suspicious
characters have bad but little opportunity
10 prowl around In our midst. and our
people have much reason TO b thankful
that thsir intsrssts are % we'll guarded BY
such a. efaoient police force.
The Fire Companies. 70 whom 10 In
trusted the safety Of our propsrty from
Ore. dessrss some notice ~ this time
Their activity and efloisncy 1t all timsa
when their services we're needed hes beer
In keeping With their past record. and
might safely say that no volunteer nrs
department on the coast can surpass our
for promptness and activity.
In conclusion, ! will stats that I ain
cerely thank The members Of the Board,
ono and all, for the very able manner In
which thsy have at all dimes assisted me-
In the management Of town afairs. Thsl
unity and good will which has existed
among them. together with . strong desIrs
70 serve tho best interests Of the town. hsi
made my position a President Of The
Board most agreeable. Al . new Board o.
Trustees will soon commence their lsbors
I feel 10 my duty 10 call their attention Y
the economy which has been praotieed p,
the retiring Board Of Trustees, - thu
prospects are that the revenues from taIa
bic property. owing 20 the extrems dull
ness Of the times will Be much less thai
they have been The last year. Very respect

Treed by Pigs.

Treed by pigs is not exactly the posi-.
ton in which We should expect to find
a colonial secretary-at least not often.
But when Mr.. Fowler, colonial secretary
of the Honduras, was recently exploring
the interior of the colony he was over
taken by n drove of peccaries and had
only time TO take snap shot at the first
OF them and scramble up a tree, drop
ping his rife in the performance, before
the whole pack were around his perch.
gnashing their teeth at him, Rruntinp
and sharpening their tusks against his
tree. Now the peccary Is not only fero-
cious, but patient, and rather than let
an object of its anger escape will wait
about for days, so that the secretary had
before him only two courses-either to
remain where he was until he dropped
down among the swine from sheer ex-
haustion and hunger or else 10 commit
suicide at once by coming down to be
