long to get to the kernel Of the census
question IL one starts right"
Whenever Canton people want to
criticise their neighbors they make
the occasion an excuse for taking a
sideswipe at Akron. Akron people do
not know what trouble the residents
of the Canton Youngstown census dis.
trio /; may heve had in the way of
small politics." They only know
that the census as taken In the Akron
district was obtained by fair and nc.
curate methods under the direction OF
a capable Supervisor, and that no
"small politics" interfered with the
work here. The Youngstown papers
have been disposed to accept the result
OF the census as an accurate test Of
the relative population of Akron and
Youngstown, and until they begin to
shout fraud" it Is more than likely
that Akron's citizens will be able to
endure the jaundiced complaints Of
quarrelsome and backsliding Stark.

YOUNGSTOWN WANTS A CHAN 6 E,

Our Youngstown neighbors seem to
think that all they have to do to get
rid of the City Commissioner system
is to vote to advance their city to the
next higher grade, SO they are going
to petition the Council to allow them
to vote upon the matter next spring.
More than n year ago the question
Of ridding Akron of the Commissioner
system by advancing the grade Of the
city was submitted to n number Of
local attorneys, and it was the unan-
imOus opinion that this relief could
only be provided by an act Of the Leg
lslature repeating the City Commits,
sioner law.
Akron people several years ago dis
covered that the Commissioner law
Is a bad thing for the city, and the
fact that the law now remains upon
the statute books Ia due chiefly to the
fact that the people of Youngstown
have been unwilling to consent to its
repeal because of their mistaken no.
ton that provided them an economical,
representative and satisfactory form
of local government.
n at last Youngstown's citizens are
realizing the fact that they have
been buncoed, Akron people will be
glad to join hands with them for the
repeal of the law. To this end both
cities should send representatives to
tho next General Assembly pledged
to work for the laws repeal.
But it may be doubted IL the citizens

cumber themselves with the expensive
form of government Incident to city
of the first class, third grade, to which
this city would be entitled to advance.
ment, even for the sake of getting rid
Of the Commissioner law.
At any rate the citizens of Akron
are hopeful of legislation Mt the next
session OF the Legislature that will
provide n general reformation of the
government of Ohio's municipalities.
This reformation would have been
provided last year, along the lines of
the bill presented by Senator sieber,
of Akron, but for the fact that tho
friends OF the Ohio Municipal Code
Commission did not want to have n
bill passed that failed to bear the tag
mark of the Commission.

Makes a Queer Defense
to a Prosecution.
Says Uncle Sam Has No Right In
Cuba.

Cuba.
Washington, Dec. 10.--(Spl.)-The
Supreme. court today heard arguments
in the case Of Neely VS.. Henkel, in
volving the right of the United States
to extradlte Neely for trial in Havana
for the alleged embezzlement of the
Cuban postal funds.
Neely was arrested in New York for
the alleged embezzlement Of $4,000
entrusted to him as the finance agent
of the department of posts. Circuit
Judge Lacombe held that the evidence
disclosed probable cause, and ordered
! Neely's detention pending the action
of the Executive. Neely then applied
for habeas corpus, on the ground
that the act of Congress authorizing
the extradition was unconstitutional,
as an attempt to legislate for foreign
country with which this country is at
peace.
The case, therefore, involves the
question of the constitutional relations
between the United States and the
island of Cuba, and will be the first
of the cases which will determine the
power of this government to govern
temporarily or permanently the isl,
ands acquired through the treaty of
Paris. The grounds set forth in the
application for the writ are that since
the treaty Of Paris the United States
is without authority to occupy or con,
troll Cuba, and that the military gov
ernment which there exists by order
of the President is Illegal and in viola
tion of the constitution.
John d. Lindsay and Delaney Nj
coll, of the New York bar. argued the
case for Neely, and the governments
was represented by Assistant Attorney
General James NJ. Beck.

will they get out to the primaries next

their votes when the Councllmen

Postmaster General Smith devotes
only two pages of his annual report
to the Neely and Ratbbone cases. He
concludes with the statement that
"the cases have passed to the custody
Of the courts and early trial Is ex-

postponed since they came into court,
and Messrs. Rathbone and Neely do
not seem to be worrying very much
about their "early trial"
