DEBATING CLUB
FOR THIS CITY.
It Is Planned to Take Place of the Defunct
Economic League.

"My plan would be to organize It en-
tirely independent of politics, for the
discussion of any subjects of local OIL
general interest. / would like first to
see discussion of our municipal
needs. The discussions might contin
ue through several meetings, allowing
representation of both sides politically,
l believe something is necessary in
this city to eliminate the lower ideas
of politics, and promote healthier cit.
izenship. Among the first questions
for consideration that would suggest
would be the Municipal Code, and we
could again have speakers familiar
with the subject, explain the code, as
l believe our people will petition Leg
islature for ii this winter"
1t is not likely that the society will
be organized in time for holding meet
ings prior to the election, but it will
be soon afterward. Meetings will be
held every two weeks.

Council at its third special meeting,

Messrs. Langdon and Jacobs were not

Just before the ordinance was read
for the last time, Mr.. Merz asked So.
licitor Esgatc for final opinion in the
matter The Solicitor re-affirmed his
position stated at the first special
meeting-that the ordinance will not
hold as legal. Council is willing to
allow the legality of the ordinance to
be tested in court.
The bonds are to be sold October
18th.
After passing the ordinance Council
adjourned, but reconvened to adopt
resolution to the effect that Is the
sense of the City Council of Akron
that the State Board of Public Works
should refrain from granting any
privileges along the Ohio canal, and
that the Council of Akron does most
vigorously protest against the grant
ing of privileges along the canal from
Lock II to and including the feeder
at the entrance of Long Lake. This
resolution was suggested by the plans
of Thos. L. Childs to build an electric
railway along the banks of the canal,
from Akron to Cleveland.

An effort is to be made TO organize
a society in Akron, after the fashion
Of the Economic League, but being
wholly local organization, having
no connection as branch. 1t is also
desired to broaden its scope so that
young men and women may become
active members and participate in the
discussions. s.
In speaking of the matter Friday ev-
ening Judge N. ID. Tibbals, who is one
of those agitating the organization of
the society, said to a reporter for the
Democrat: II believe it would be an
exceptionally good thing to so organ
ize the society that its liberties and
opportunities may be enjoyed by all
classes-women, young men, members
of labor unions or other organizations
OF like character. 1t would help to fit
the young men for public Office and in
culcate better principles into citizen
ship.

out because Of the scarcity Of cars
Freight can not be handled to advan
tage for this reason.
''The scarcity is not due to any
tying up of the rolling stock of the
road. Everything is moving and the
road Is doing all the business that II
can, but the trade has grown so rap
idly that more and more facilities arc
necessary all the time.
Nearly all the railroads in the
country have the same complaint to
make. Business lies and waits for
to do the work Of removal"

Railroads are growing up with the
country" said an Akron railroad man
today, but it seems they are not
growing fast enough. Trade has been

as well as they possibly could The
railroads these days are troubled by
a great scarcity of cars and the hand
ling of freight is much delayed there.
