from running hopelessly into debt, it
was necessary to employ competent
men and pay them fair compensation
for their services to look after the citYs
business.
If, after seven years OF government
by Commissioners we are not better
off than we We're before; if the trans
action of the city's business and the
guarding of it's finances must still be
done by the Council. then government
by the Board OF City Commissioners
is a dismal failure and we are paying
out in the neighborhood of $4,000 a
year for nothing,--yes, might say for
something worse than nothing.
Within the last week or two, how
ever, find in perusing the Beacon
Journal and the Democrat, that they
are not so very far apart in this matter
after all. W ~
In an editorial in the Beacon Journal
of the date OF March 16, headed, THE

ing: Would that both Commissioners
and Councllmen could be reached by
the electors, but as only the Council
men arc the result of popular choice,
they Will he compelled to bear the

In this the Beacon Journal comedies
that the Commissioners are equally
guilty with the Councilman for the
present deplorable condition of Akron's
finances, was greatly pleased in pc
rusing my papers last evening to find
that move was on foot to bring about
the very thing the Beacon journal SO
devoutly wishes, that "both Commits.

At The Grand.

Henry Arthur Jones is said to have
made an exceedingly good play of
"Thc Liars" which Mr.. Otis Skinner
will present at the Grand on Friday
evening. 1t is called n comedy of so-
cial manners, and the verdict seems to
be that it is written in brilliant, epi-
grammatic, clear-cut style: that its
love interest Is very pretty one; that,
ot the same time it is keen satire on the
foibles of fashionable society; that it
is Enthusiastically sermonic in spirit,
and that 1t is splendidly acted by Mr..
Skinner and one of the best support
ing organizations he has ever had
which latter is saying a great deal.
"The LIARS was played att he Empire
theater, New York city, for about four
months, and will be presented here
with the full production. Mr.. Skinner
will be seen in the part of Sir Chris
topher Deering, a sort of social med.
Ter and nender of broken hearts. Miss
Nannette Comstock will be Mr.. Skin.
ner's leading lady.

To the Editor of the Democrat:

To the Editor of the Democrat:
AS q voter and taxpayer of the city
OF Akron, have watched with consid-
cradle interest the transaction of the
official business of our Board of City
Commissioners and our Council. And
in order to keep myself fully informed
in the situation, have although Re-
publican, been careful reader Of your
paper.
/ have noticed that your policy has
been to throw the greater part of the
blame for the mismanagement of our
city's affairs on the Board of City Com
missioners, while on the other hand,
my own party organ has attempted to
place the responsibility upon the City
Council,
II Ia not Mt all difficult for man Of
ordinary intelligence to see through the
motive that actuated both yourself and
the editor of the Beacon Journal. 1t is
conceded by all in any way familiar
with the present conditions that the
Board of City Commissioners, although
bipartisan in name, is Republican in
fact; that all of it's business is trans
acted and all its appointments made
with the sole purpose in view of furth-
erlng the Interests of the Republican
party ms represented by politicians in
control. On the other hand, the pres
ent Council Is Democratic
From the standpoint of n taxpayer
and citizen, one not particularly inter-
ested in the success of either party,
must say that 1t strikes me that while
| the Council may have been somewhat
lax in approving expenditures made by
the Board of City Commissioners, the
blame primarily lies with the latter
body,
If remember correctly, when our
| City Commissioners Law first went in
to effect, one of the reasons advanced
| by those who advocated the change
| was that the business of our City
could not be properly transacted by
an unpaid body of men, meeting but
once week; that in order TO have all
expenditures of public money carefully
] scrutinIzed and to prevent our city

CALL
Issued For Convention Of

Able Speakers Will be Present--Ex-

All friends of justice and equal
rights in Sumit county, are urgently
invited to meet in mass convention in
the Universalist church Of Akron,
April is and II, 1900
The convention will be held under
the joint auspices of the National
American Woman Suffrage Associa-
ton, and the Ohio Woman Suffrage
Association. Able speakers will be
present, and an entertaining, instruc-
tive program will be provided
Four states, Wyoming, Colorado
Utah and Idaho, have already granted
full suffrage to women, while twenty
six additional states have admitted
the justice of the claim by extending
partial suffrage. The states which
have had full opportunity to observe
the advantages of woman suffrage
unite in the te"tlmony that it hns
proved beneficial in csery direction. It
has in no way injured men, women or
the state. Instead, under it's influence,
women have become more intelligent
and self reliant; good men have been
encouraged by the moral aid of wo,
men, and have sought the publication
of politics, which they We're unable
TO accomplish alone; while the state
has gained new dignity by the intro
duction of this moral force.
Important business concerning meth
ods of work best suited TO hasten the
establishment of woman ruffrage, in
order that the state may gain its CON
sequent good effects, will be Consid-
cred in the convention The friends
of suffrage are invited to aid in the for
nation of these plans; the Indifferent
are invited TO attend the sessions, that
they may he converted; and the op-
posed are invited to participate In the
