Ex-Governor Click presided at the meeting and introduced Bryan. During his speech some one in the crowd shouted for Mckinley. Bryan turned upon him and asked: "Is it the Mo Kinley who denounced Grover Cleveland's financial policy, or the one who adopted it? Is it the Mckinley who said it was our plain duty to give free trade to Porto Rico, or the Mckinley who signed the bill taking free trade to Porto Rico? Is it the Mckinley who said forcible an nexation would be criminal az gression, or is it the Mckinley who now believes in forcible an nexation and criminal aggres- sion? I am glad to have a re- publican cheer for his candidate, but I think we ought to know which candidate he is endOrs- ing. "-Report of Bryan's speech at Atchison, Kansas.

The late Democratic conven- tion at Phoenix accomplished one good thing for the party, if nothing else.

By his recent acts Colonel J. F. Wilson has justly forfeited all claims he may have ever pos sessed at the hands of the dem ocracy of Arizon. Fairly and honestly beaten, he has not he's itated, for his own personal ad- vancement, to become a party to an act which will for years be disgrace to the democratic party. The attempt to unseat the regularly elected delegates from Maricopa county was one of the most infamous and un- warranted acts ever perpetrat- ed in Arizona politics, and every man connected with the rascally attempt forever deserves the contempt of all honest demo- rats.-Tempe News.

Smith the Candidate.

The following from the Phoe- nix Enterprise is worth of peru sal. The Enterprise was the original Wilson paper of the ter ritory and knows whereof it speaks. Being democratic and just and fair, it refuses to follow the banner of Bolter Wilson.
 "Mark A. Smith is the regu- lar democratic nominee for dele gate to congress and the demo- cratic central committee of Mar icopa county has decided to adopt his emblem, the silver dol lar, for the county ticket.
 ''It is well known to every man in Arizona that the Enter prise was an ardent supporter of Col. J. F. Wilson two years ago, both for nomination and election. This year, with all our might, we advocated his renom- ination on the ground that, hay ing been faithful servant one term he was entitled to renomi- nation.
 County after county held convention, some declaring for Smith, others for Wilson, until outside of Maricopa county it stood: Wilson, 70; Smith 59. This county with it's 33 dele gates held the balance of power, and so it was proclaimed by both sides. The primaries were battles royal and each side left no stone unturned to advance it's respective candidate.
 "The county convention as- sembled, both sides nervous and afraid to make a test of strength. When it came to the selection of temporary chairman, Frank Baxter, the Smith candidate,

 lowing to extreme friendli ness for Col. Wilson, the Enter prise remained silent, willing, i. it could be accomplished, to al low the Wilson men to seat the contestants in territorial con vention. By bad management the attempt failed, hence the case, in our mind, dropped back to the status of that county con vention from which the Wilson men emerged, feeling they had been defeated.
 "Next day, during the county convention proper, Col. Wilson told the editor of this paper thai he would allow no contest anC that he proposed to address the convention in the interests o1 harmony, so as to help the coun ty ticket. During the second evening of the territorial con vention, Col. Wilson again at tempted to withdraw, evidently following the dictates of his owr conscience. His friends inter fered and the second time he failed to do his plain duty. Nov in the light of these events we feel it our duty to follow regu larity and to support the mar whom the county central com mittee declares the rightful nom inee.

Most of the lawyers of the Senate
agree with Attorney General Sheets in
the opinion that the Ohio Centennial
bill, providing for tho expenditure, up
on the part of the state Of $4,000
if passed, would be unconstitutional
A new point has been made against the
bill. A clause in article of the consti-
tuition of the state provides that Tho
state shall not lend money TO individ-
uals or to corporations. Now, the Ohio
Centennial Company, for whose organ
ization provision is made in the bill, is
very much like, with respect to the
duties imposed upon it, any other cor
poration. 1t seems probable that the
bill will be passed, however although
an amendment providing that the peo-
pie of Toledo must raise the 100000
promised before the state gives any
assistance, may be attached.

AMEND THE LAW.

Councilman Flebeger suggests that
the people OF Akron take immediate
steps to have the Commissioners law
30 amended that the Commissioners
will he elected by the people. This is
an excellent suggestion, but We doubt
If much could be accomplished, even
II II Were put into effect. The present
Legislature Is rot In the business of re-
forming laws FOR the benefit of the peo-
pie, as Is evidenced by the turn down
of tha bill presented by the Municipal
Code Commission measure that had
the endorsement of every taxpayer and
Board of Trade in Ohio. Besides, the
City Commissioner law in its present
form, suits the politicians very well
and as experience has shown that the
people can get nothing more than n
pleasant look from the present Legis-
laturc when they ask for n favor,
while all the substantial benefits of
legislation nre reserved for the politi-
clans and privileged interests, It seems
as IL the chances are very much In ia
vor of the Commissioner law remain
Ing with us for while. But this is
no reason why Mr.. Fiebeger.s sugges.
tlon that an amending bill be introduc,
ed In the Legislature should not be
acted upon.

but 1t is within their power to make

bic to their constituents.
II repeat that If the citizens Of Ak
ron expect to have any relief from the
existing conditions within the next
year they must organize ut once to
petition their Representatives In the
Legislature to have the Commissioner
law amended. The Citizens Commit
tee of Fifty should take the initiative
and have bill introduced in the pres

Denial Of Beacon's Silly Story About

to approve the East Market paving
contracts Monday night Mr.. Fiege-
ger distinctly heard Mr.. Paul negative
vote and thinks 1t unjust to charge
him with an affirmative vote, ESPE-

WOULD OPPOSE HIS OWN MINOR
I'rY REPORT from the Street com
mittee, in which he wanted the paving
contract postponed. Mr.. Fiebeger said
trouble would have Ueen saved had
this been done. He also says that the
Council never had the Gilsonite bid be-
fore it to act upon, as the City Com
missioners rejected it and never re-
ported 1t to Council. In fact, all the
bids below those of McCOurt and

Editor Reynolds in the following ex-
tract from his paper, formerly the

The Bar Association at it's special
meeting tomorrow morning, will give
all parties fair chance for a fair hear
ing TO get at the facts, growing out of
the remarks that a. ]. Rowley made
cOnfidentinlly at recent Bar meeting
about "a certain Akron Justice Of the
Peace" having a supposed improper
contract with n firm of attorneys.
Which of the four Justices was meant,
has not been made public or
whether It is either of the three run
ming FOR reelection. Some assumed
friends of these gentlemen have rushed
to their defense In II way that was
almost condemnation, until the whole
thing has got tangled up in party poll
tics. But no one yet knows the char
acter of the contract-whether it was
wicked Intentionally or at all, OF
whether it Is even in operation yet, If
the charges are as bad as the noise
over them some one saouId and will
suffer. Who will profit thcrcby?"
The attention Of the Republican citi-
2ens Of Akron is directed to the fact
that Editor Raynold gives Mr.. Row
ley credit for having initiated the
charge against the certain Justice"

The Republicans of Akron used to
say when Dobson threw mud ut them
from the local Democratic camp that
Dobson's never-ceaslng rule of pollti-
cal ethics was: "a lie well stuck to
is good as the truth" Dobson has a
whole week before him to stick to the
lie about Councilman Paul's vote upon
the East Market street contract. Will
he be able to do 1t? First ward voters
will answer this question next Mon
day.
In whom have the citizens Of the
First ward the greater confidence: In
Councilman Paul, who has lived among
them all his life; or in Dobson, the
carpet Dagger who drlfted into Akron
n few years ago and who is now dis
gracing the Republican party of Sum
NIT county by his notorious conduct
of their only party organ? The peo-
pie of the First ward will answer this
question at the polls next Monday.
