AN IMP0TENT THREAT.

BY clecting Mr.. Chas. II. Isbell to
the Mayoralty, Akron's citizens are go
ing to open the way to the appoint
ment of City Commissioners who will
make the conduct of the citys bust
ness on sound business principles their
first consideration.
1t was not until Judge Anderson had
created the Proxy system, and n ma
iority of the City Commissioners had
surrendered their independence as pub
lie officials in exchange for the oppor-
tunlty to become the pensioners of the
Gar, that the public interests began to
suffer and the eXtravagant policies
were undertaken which have caused
an annual deficit of $4,000 in the
current expenses of the city.
The threat which Judge Anderson is
casting into the faces of Akron people
that not even the defeat of his candi-
date for Mayor will cause him to re-
lax his hold upon the executive depart.
mcnt of the city, does not terrify any
citizen Of courage and intelligence.
Rather does it stimulate the people to
greater determination than ever N re-
claim the machinery Of the local gov
crnmcnt to their own control
Boss Tweed was insolent, too, in his
day, and it was six years before the
people Of New York were reused to n
pitch of indignation sufficient to exact
Il reparation for their wrongs.
Are the citizens of Akron going to
be frightened from their plain duty to
protect the clty's rights simply be-
cause Akron's dictator has the bold,
ness TO assume that they can have
no honest and efficient government in
their city except that which he in his
graciousness and his power may choose
to give them?

NO INCREASED TAX LEVY.

the tax levy is necessary TO help the
city out of the pit of bankruptcy into
which the extravaganza of the Com.

Anderson's threat that there will be
no change In the Board of Commits.
sioncrs unless the people elect his
candidate to the Mnyoralty, and,
therefore, permit him to retain his
control OF the affairs of the Board for
three years more, The fact is that
the Akron tax duplicate has increased

maximum levy OF nine mills should
have supplied plenty of money with
which TO pay the expenses Of the
city's government, 1t would have
been sufficient had men like Mr.. Hu.

sadler been retained upon the Board.
The misfortune and the exlraya.
gance came when Judge Anderson sue,
ceeded In getting his Proxy system
into working ORDER, and made II ma,
jority OF the commissioners believe
that they were accountable to him
instead of to the people for the ad
ministratlon Of their offices.

TO REACH THE PEOPLE.
(From the Philadelphia Record.)

Before many years shall pass the
newspaper will be the medium of pub
llclty for all who may have any an,
nounccment to make TO the people,
and the latter will look to the news
paper for information on virtually
all subjects. Besides telephones,
street railway, insurance and financial
companies, which in some cities ad-
vertisc in the newspapers as regularly
as do the merchants, some of the
churches, school boards, municipal
corporations and business organza,
tions have adopted the newspaper as
their means of communicating with
the public. Recently n large society
in southern Michigan which is en-
gagged in the propagation of certain
altrustc social doctrines decided to
abandon its own paper and to buy one
column week in each of II number OF
leading newspapers for the publication
of well written articles on its creed.

While walking towards the Roberts
cottage his heart warmed toward CLAIR
issa, and in spite of her rebuff he made
several resolutions.
AS he neared the house he saw q
pretty little domestic picture, for
| Clarissa with a colony of kittens in her
lap and their mother at her feet, was
enjoying it, unconscious of an audi

Mr. Spencer felt guilty, but he could
not help gazing at the tableau before

trihe' coolly, he thought, and CLAIR
issas manner was even more frigid
than her note had been.

cises," but Immediately launched in
to the subject SO near his heart.
"Miss Roberts, you will pardon me,
| but could not understand your note,
and [ am sure there is some mistake -
The tones were calm and courte-
Gus, so Clarissa controlled her emo
ton and said: "After your letter, Mr..
Spencer, think it is not necessary
for me to explain
"My letter!' said he in amazem ent.
eyes, your letter." responded Claris-
sa coolly, in your handwriting and
signed Valentine.''
Miss Roberts, allow me to say that

ing the message I inclosed with the

"But I received letter. stam-
| mered Clarissa, ''and it certainly looks
| like your writings"
MAY [ see it, please?" asked Mr..
Spencer.
Clarissa produced it somewhat re-
luctantly, and the former assured her
that he was the victim of practical
| joke.
The poor girl covered her face and
cried: s'Who could be so cruel 90
Then it was Mr.. Spencer's turn to
play comforter.
"Do you feel so very badly, Miss
| Roberts," said he. 'Part of the note
at least is true, in regard to my feel
ing toward you; but it seems some
one has got ahead of me, and paved
the way roughly
| It is needless to go into details. The
| tangle adjusted itself easily and Mr..
Spencer and Clarissa arranged matters
very satisfactorily; so much so that

overfowed. Clarissa reprimanded him
quietly several times, and finally
when he created a sensation by pro-

of a mysterious pocket, with which
he frightened the girls, she took the
youngster in hand.

from the time the box was first sent, It
was back to the donor.
To say that Prof. Spencer was amazed
does not express the feelings he ex-
perienced on opening the box. "It is
so unlike her." he thought; ''what can
she mean?' He knew there was mis-
understanding somewhere, his mathe
NAUTICAL judgment taught him that
and with determined air he made
his toilet.
He was always particular about his
attire, which was faultless on all oc-
casions, and this evening spent more
time than usual dressing. He had adj
mired Clarissa for many years, and aft
er her fathers death his respect grew
into something more substantial, but
he watched her career with no little
interest and when she went to teaching
as a means of livelihood, he knew that
her character was not weak or fimsy.
