Such proceeding is susceptible of but

The tax duplicate could be increased
to $100,000,000, instead of the $751;
100000 which it now is, and the pres
ent Board of J City Commissioners
would find a way to spend all the
money raised by the levy upon the
duplicate. Then they would go to the
Legislature to ask for more. Elect Mr..
lsbell to the Mayoralty and the citi-
zens of Akron will succeed in getting
representatives upon the Board of
Commissioners who will have the
ability and the courage and the incli'
nation to look after the city's inter

After the people had voted down the
bond issues for the Improvement of the
fire service the Commissioners went
to the Legislature and got permission
to issue $4,000 of bonds without the
consent of the people. And it appears
also that they have spent the money
without the consent of the people, for
only $4,000 of the $4,000 remains on
hand, and the work has not been half
completed. Wouldn't the taxpayers
of Akron delight in having the present
Board of City Commissioners spend
money at their expense in the erection
of new City Hail?

A CITIZENS POSSE
Near the Scene of the Shawnee
Stomp Dance = The Young
Desperate Must Answer for
Many Crimes of Horse Steal
ing, Terrorizing and Selling
Liquor.

Jim Rogers, one Of the motor
ious Rogers brothers, who has
long been terrorizing the commun-
ity around Ruby and in the White
Oak hills, is under arrest and care
fully guarded in Jail in this city.
The direct criminal charges
which Rogers will be compelled to
answer are the forging of bank
checks, theft of seven horses and
II different counts of introducing
and selling liquor.
All these crimes have been com
mitted since January in which
month Rogers escaped from the
Jail at Independence, Montgomery
county, Kansas, after beating the
jailor nearly to death and locking
him in a cell.
Rogers is only % years old but
has been a criminal nearly all his
life. He is a splendid physical
specimen and looks the desperate
that he is.
When only IA years old he emu.
lated the daring of his older bro
ther by entering the post-office and
store Of Henry Hayden, at Hay
den; standing him up in line with
nine negroes who were in the
store at the time, and compelling
them to place all their valuables
in a sack which he carried of,
Since that time he has been known
as a hold-up and horse thief but
there is no evidence that he ever
took part in the train and bank
robberies with the gang of which
his brothers Bob and Sam were
identified.
Bob Rogers was killed by a
posse during a running fight four
wears ago, and Sam Rogers was
shot through the hips and seri-
ously crippled by Heck Bruner
about six years ago. After receiv-
ing his "mark for life" Sam went
home to his fathers farm near
Ruby and has lived a lawful life
as far as known. Mr.. Rogers, the
atber of the boys, is a farmer
highly respected by his neighbors
as a good citizen.
For several weeks past the men,
hers of the Anti-Horse Thief So
oiety have been on the trail of
young Rogers. Saturday night
they located him at the home OF
Jack Enman, near where the
shawnees we're holding their
stomp dance in the White Oak

Where Miaery, SqualOr. Hunger anu
Cold Rule In newfoundland.
Misery, squalor and wretchedness,
accumulated by an almost ceaseless
struggle with hunger and cold, are the
portion Of the inhabitants OF the
"North Shore" in Newfoundland
Their little hamlets are perched IN the
riffs in the almost unbroken hills, anu
the fierce storms sweep the surface
almost to their doorsteps, While 1or
seven months of the year their coast
is blockaded with ice and they are cut
off from all communication with the
outside world.
The only industry is codfishing, and
cod is the sole medium Of exchange.
The people rarely see money, and par
ter is the system Of trading, qulntai
Of cod being the unit of value. Inc
needs of the fisher folk are only sup
plied by the itinerant trader, MS
schooner being laden with provisions
clothing and fishing appliances. Thus
have these people lived for generations.
They are ignorant, for the means OF
education are nonexistent, the children
being content with what satisfied their
fathers. The common objects of every
day life are unknown to them. Ihey
have neither horses nor cattle. only
a few of the older folk who have ven
tured south have any knowledge ol
these things.

vehicles. Travel is by boat during
