Vide Open Gambling.

A New York gambling firm has
opened a house and runs " as no such
joint was ever operated in Rhode Is
land. People complain that they can
hear the roulette balls as they traverse
the dice and piling up OF the chips
while they are walking by the club
house and at .lmes the windows are
open and that they can see the tables
and the people playing before them.
This house has brought TO the Pier
gang Of touss and runners who ogle
the women, and never until this year
has there been any cause for such a
complaint.
men and women sit at tables? The
Bowery in New York cannot discount
those places. No wonder a strong pro-
test wells up from the cottagers.

Defender Starts for The Line.

At 1905 the Defender was seen COM
Ing round the point and-soen after
headed out after her rival at the start
ing point at the lightship. At that
time the wind seemed to be increasing
and lots Of little white leaps were scat-
tered over the water.
The Defender CAME out of the harbor
with mainsail and jibsail set and reach
ed nearly down to Narragansett Pier
before she set her forestaysail. This
sail well up she came about and stood
over toward the lightship.
At 10:30 Columbia was nearly two
miles to the eastward Of tie lightship
and had taken in her club topsail.
The newspaper tug arrived at the
lightship about this time, while

Wind Increases.

At 10:40 the wind had Increased tn
over ten miles an hour, and there was
quite a lump of a sea, which, however.
did not seem to affect the big yachts to
any great extent, although it threw the
little boats around Surprisingly AT
this hour the Sultana, which Mr.. j. p.
DrexeI has placed in the service of the
judges, came steaming out of Nolrra-
gansett bay and headed for pne start
ing point.
The wind held perfectly true up to
the time of the start and gave every
indication Of staying all day. 1t was a
little south of southwest but from a
quarter that gave the yachts a good
head-on thrash to the windward in the
first leg to Point Judith whistling buoy
a distance of seven miles.
AT 1:50 the judges boat Sultana had
taken up her position about quarter
OF mile due east of the Brentons
Reef lightship and both boats circled
around the starting line.
A. good fleet of steam yachts came
down from Newport to witness the race
and all but two clustered about to the
leeward of the line. The preparatory
and starting whistles were sounded on
time, the first at IL o'clock, the second
at ll:lO and the third at Ills.

Fight MOI Stopped.

The prize fight which precipitated the
governors PROCLAMATION could have
peen prevented had there been any real
desire TO do so. Instead of taking the
hghters by the scruff of the neck and
putting them behind the bars as sus-
picious people, which is a police pre-
rogative universally recognized. and
then, later on, railroading them out of
the county, instead of taking the abet-
tors OF the fight into camp and warning
them that they must not have the
match, either in the Tally-Ho club
house or In the woods, the head of the
local police force contented himself
villa preventing the fight indoors and
teiling the manager to go elsewhere II
ne wanted TO entertain ais patrons.
After the proclamation was issued
the manager of the fight became alarm
ed and called upon the local cop" who
said that the best thing he. the man.
ager, could do was TO keep out OF his,
the COP 81 way. There the affair rest
ed and apparently was to slumber, for
the Pier police had other things on
their mind, such as breaking waves.

Warrants and Arrests.

Another and more powerful agency
was at work, however, and yesterday
Judge Lewis of the Second District
court, at the request of Sheriff Gran
dali. issued writs for the arrest of the
fighters, who were Albert Johnson and
Burnside Rhodes. Sheriff Crandall
turned the papers over to Deputy Sheriff
Wilcox, and .ast evening Wilcox ar
rested the men and arraigned them be-
fore Assistant Trial Justice Ferry.
They pleaded not guilty and were held
in $1,000 for trial next week.
A warrant was also issued for the
arrest of Edward Comber, the alleged
promoter of the fight and who is inter-
ested in the Tally no club.
Now that the work of publication Of
the Pier has begun, there are fond
hopes cherished that IL will be pushed
on until many causes for complaint are
eradicated.

90 THE CITIZENS CARE 7

Messrs. Kibler and Pugh, of the
Municipal Code Commission, ex-
planned the provisions of their
Municipal Reform bill in n very
thorough and entertaining manner
ut Universalist church last evening.
All citizens who are willing to
place their concern for good local
government above partisanism, and
who believe that Ohios cities are
entitled to the greatest possible de-
gree of Home Rule, will agree that
the bill, as prepared by the Commits
sion, ought to pass, but the chief
question now is: "Will it pass?"
Hope Of action favorable to the bill
from the present General Assembly
seems to be forlorn when 1t is con-
sidered that both Houses, the upper,
especially, are in the control of polit-
ical bosses, but vigorous, united
and outspoken sentimentin behalf of
the measure will accomplish vast
amount of good toward paving the
way for the passage of the bill by
the succeeding General Assembly.
The attendance of Akron's citizens
at last nights meeting, while fair,
was disappointing In the light of the
great Importance of the subject under
consideration. So long as the people
let the politicians and spoils hunters
determine the form of their CITY
government, and control their city's
affairs, they must expect u make
shift and haphazard type OF public
service In exchange for the taxes
they pay, nor should they complain
If tho municipal debt is piled noun
tain high.
The Chamber Of Commerce is act
ing on tho right line when 1t sets out
to interest the people in municipal
affairs. No Akron property-owner
who neglects to cooperate with the
Chamber In Its laudable effort to
improve the government of Ohio's
cities, and incidentally Akron's,
should complain II his property is
taken from him by excessive taxa.
tion, or II his clty's valuable rights
are frittered away to privilege-seek-
ers by faithless public servants.
Akron's people have paid dearly
for her experience in this regard.

"THE proposed reformation of the
government Of Ohio cities will be
opposed by the politicians and by
some of those who assume that they
have vested rights-the franchise
interests" said Judge Pugh, al
Universalist church. "If you as
citizens are In favor Of the plan you
must manifest 1t in some other way
than by simply having your own
private opinion that the bill ought
to pass"
WIN Akron's Citizens take the
hint?
THE POLITICIANS and tho fran
chise interests, whose occupations
are threatened, will not waste much
time talking about the merits of the
Home Rule bill proposed by the
Municipal Code Commission.
They will act.
The people must prepare to act,
too, II they expect to have any intlu-
ence with the Legislature.
Give your representatives to un-
derstand that you want the bill
passed.
This may not pass the bill this
time, but 1t will give the people the
opportunity to make an example OF
men who set their wishes and inter.
ests at defiance.
Not long ago Akron's citizens
made an object lesson Of councilmen
