The statement of Albert Pack,
before committee of the House of
Representatives at Lansing, which
will be found in another column,
shows plainly that the principal
object of the Republican plan for
amending the charter of this city,
is the mere political one of giving
the Republicans control of the city
by arranging the wards so that the
bulk of the Democratic vote will be
in the proposed Third ward. Mr..
Pack is very frank in his state
ments. He desired minority of
the people of Alpena to rule the
city. 1t is as partisan a measure as
any we have heard of. He desired
to give the Republican party, by
means of partisan legislation, power
that they cannot get by fair bal
lot of The people. We ask the
reader to carefully examine Mr..
Packs statement. We are inclined
to believe that it will cause many
to vote the Democratic ticket.
