Fitness, and Not Politics.
The Anglo-Anerican Independent
club met last night in Odd Fellows
block, with President Wincott in the
chair. The minutes, including the
constitution aud bylaws adopted at
previous meeting, were read by Secre-
tary Goodwin and approved. Every
member of the club is expected to bring
in re :ruits, but special committee to
Solicit members was named.
E. Howard Morphy, the British con-
sui. addressed the meeting on the aims
and purposes OF the organization. He
believes the purposes to be worthy.
namely, to unite the action of the people
of the city of British birth in efforts to
secure a good administration of local
Offices and to urge those of British
! birth to become. American citizens
after having come here to reside. He
saw a disposition to drift into the
Old parties but hoped they would hold
together as Independents and work to
office rather than because of their
political beliefs. He did not believe in
bringing the tariff or national politics
| into local campaigns. His view is that
| the 1900 men of English birth in the
city may make their influence felt If
they would unite as AnglO-SaXons to
purify local politics.
Mr.. MorDhy stated that clerk of
courts or Judge should not be elected
because of his views on the tariff, but
because of his fitness for the position.
He dislkes to see the judiciary dragged
into the mire of partisan politics, and
wants United States senators elected by
the people. He expressed his admira-
ton for the system of government in
his country and of the privilege of
universal Suffrage, but thinks that indie.
pendent organization should be effected
to train the voters to proper exercise
of the elective franchise.
r. G.. Clark spoke in much the same
strain. He believes in foreign born
people becoming Americans first. but
favored union similar to that of neigh
boring nationalities in this country.
Mr.. Jeffrey spoke of the need of
greater effort to largely increase the
membership of the club. He said that
it is time the AnglO-Americans should
make themselves felt in local politics. SO
that they may secure representation on
the local tickets.
w. II. Patterson spoke upon the same
theme as outlined in the other speeches.
The club will meet again next week
with the expectation of having large
attendance.
