CoUNCILMAN SoRRICK. Second
ward, was the only Republican last
night having the political independ-
ence to vote for the ordinance doing
away with the superfious office Of
Superintendent of Streets. Accord
ing to the estimate of Mr.. Paul, who
prepared the ordinance, the taXpay-
ers will be save $1,000 a year by the
abolition of the office, while the
benefits they now derive from the
street department will not be cur
tailed i'm the least. \ worthy desire
to help save the taxpayers money,
was the sole consideration that
prompted Mr.. Sorrick to join with
his Democratic colleagues in voting
for the ordinance. The DEMOCRAT
is glad to note that one Republican
Councilman. at least. has the cour-
age to vote against the politicians in
control of his party's Machine when
their selfish behests are counter the
best interests of the people.

The unanimous vote of the seven
Democratic Councilmen in support
of the ordinance to do away with the
needless office of Superintendent of
Streets, was a token that those
Councilmen cannot be blutfed by
agents of the local Republican
Machine into repudiating their
pledges of economy. As the DEM
oCRAT remarked several days ago,
Akron Democratic Conncilmen are
not taking their advice just now from
the organ of the Dobson faction of
the local Republican party, the same
organ that slandered and abused
them in the last campaign. The
Democratic COmcilmen are deter
mined to do what is right in the
interests of the citizens. and some
thing more than the spiteful
opposition of an organ that long
since forfeited all of the scant
respect and confidence of the people
it ever had will be necessary to
checkmate them in their laudable
purpose

caused widespread interest in the Green
vile section and last night there was a
very large crowd on hand in spite of the
weather. The teams each had a follow
ing which was %stronged lunged and en-
thusiastic, and the roofing was a big fea-
ture of the evenings sport. Judging
from present indication the tournament
will be a grand success. The promoters
are thoroughly satisfied with the way
matters are going.
The first game Shove that the Turner
Cyclers' team was a little off. They
know the game, but could not gauge the
alleys quite right, so that they hit a little
to one side almost always. The Ger
manias on the other hand, had the mark
well covered and did fairly well. From
the start there was no question Of who
the winner would be. The Germanias
took a firm hold in the second frame and
finished first with a margin of 81 pins
Edinger was the star of the game. His
record was 175.
All the time the Cyclers were learning
just where the trouble was, and in the
second game they Showed up an improve
ment of a hundred pins, and were just q
pins ahead of the G~ermanias at the close.
Hosinger's 100 was the largest score of the
game.
The last game was the best of the
series. The teams fought hard in every
frame and at no time was there any
great difference in the totals and the fin
ish saw ID pins difference in the scores
with things in favor of the G~ermanias.
Edinger won the game without a doubt,
as his total was 20S, and he had to carry
two men who had but $50 each. The

BETTER CAR SERVICE FOR HoBoKEN

At the meeting of the Hoboken Com
mon Council last night Mayor Pagan sent
in a communication calling the attention
of the Council to the fact that the North
Hudson County Railway Company does
not run cars at frequent enough intervals
on the Washington street and Willow
avenue lines, and he advised drastic
measures to compel the company to live
up to it's franchise.
The Council passed a resolution calling
the attention of the company to its duty
and notifying the company to establish
waiting rooms at the terminals to THE
Hoboken ferries. If the company does
not build waiting rooms the local Board
of Health will take some action.
