city's telephone users and in terms that
leave no doubt of its meaning, pays
its respects to this advance of nearly
300 per cent
Akron people might not be so deeply
interested in the climax to the Detroit
consolidation were it not FOR the fact
that since the consolidation took place,
papers published in this locality and
elsewhere have been flooded with ar
ticlcs under scare headings heralding
the result of the Detroit consolidation
as warning to other communities
having telephone competition, and pre-
tending to show how well pleased De-
troit people were with the consoldat
ton. and how profitable it has been TO
them.
The 300 per cent. advance in rates,
which the Detroit Journal article
makes quite clear, throws plenty of
light upon why the consolidation took
place, who pays for it, and who rcaps
the material benefit from the same. a
monopoly Is n monopoly and its pur-
pose, us the Detroit Journal says, sis
to command the public to pny its price.
That's what monopoly is formed for;
that's what It's owners and bosses get
it built for.'

Columbus, Feb. 1.-The Canal com
mittec of Cincinnati, appointed by
Mayor Tafcl last August upon sug'
sestlon made by nr. W. A. Il. Tenney,
City Health Officer. In his latest an
nual report, met the Hamilton county
delegation OF the Legislature last even
ing and presented a bill, prepared by
Judge Howard Ferris, providing for
the abandonment Of that portion of the
Miami and Erie canal between the lin
It's of Cheapside basin and Mitchell
avenue. The gist of the proposed law
was outlined by Judge Ferris and the
whole bill a very long document, was
read by Judge II. Z. Goebel. 1t pro-
vides for the appointment Of commits
sion, consisting of the Governor, citi-
zen of Cincinnati appointed by the
Mayor, and third member to be chosen
by the two, to ascertain the value Of
the property to be abandoned, such
sum to be paid to the state by the city
of Cincinnati. The bill provides that
no railroads shall be allowed to use
the land thus acquired, but that 1t
shall be used as public highway, rail
roads to bc permitted to use the sub
surface.
Judge Ferris, in his Introductory
remarks, said that the passage of the
bill is desired by 05 per cent Of the cit
liens of Cincinnati. Those not inter
csted in the growth of the city, he
said, favor the proposed law. Business
men want 1t and the public health de-
mands 1t.
Further remarks urgently advocating
the bills passage were made by DR.
Tenney, City Health Officer; B. Pun
shaw, City Engineer; Samuel NiemaIf

An arrest was made last evening by
Deputy United States Marshal Kelley
which recalls the arrest of an old col
ored man about year ago on the
chorge Of fraudulently obtaining u pen
sion says the Cleveland Leader. The
man arrested was Daniel Freeman of
Akron, who was afterwards convicted
and sentenced by Judge Kicks for Il

At the time Freeman applied for n
pension Charles Jenkins then 55 years
Of age, and employee as n coachman
by Mr., j. y. Wamelink, made an affi-
dayit to the effect that he knew Free
man to have been a soidier in the Fiji
tyfourth Massachusetts Regiment, and
that he himself had served in the same
regiment. Freeman secured pen
sion but Jenkins did not,
Afterwards when Freeman was ar
rested and convicted the authorities
commenced looking for jenkins, but
he suddenly disappeared. The authori-
ties, however, kept on the lookout for
him, and few days ago he returned
and again went to work for Mr.. Wame-
link. Late yesterday afternoon Depu-
ty Marshal Kelley placed him under
arrest on the charge of perjury. He
was locked in the County Jail and win
be given a hearing this morning be-

that it has asked, a county that STOOD
as one of Gov. Shaw's firm supporters
in the great contest of 1897, there is no
other course left for this county but to
give Judge Church hearty and united
support. But were this not the case,
were he from another district or an
other county we should still feel him
worthy of just as Jealous support us we
shall give him. 1t is many years since
the 10th District has had member of
the supreme bench and now that such
an able candidate, presents himself
there should be no question but that q
united Tenth District should support
him. Judge Church has proven him.
self a true and Trustworthy man. In
his political relations he has been fear
less and out spoken and, as in the case
of the election of Senator Gear, be
stood tor him although the majority OF
the district was opposed. While the
senatorial question does not enter this
campaign, and should not, it is pleas
ure to support man who has not beer
afraid to risk something for others. Nc
man loses by being true to his friends
as he gains the regard of those whom he
befriends and the respect of those
whom he opposes. 1t is then with
pleasure that we propose that the re
publicans of this county give to Judge

support and that our delegation be in

secure his nomination.
