 Gentlemen--I have your letter of this date in relation to approaching muni- ctpal campa gn.
 I fully agree that the contest should be decided, not only the personal popu- larity of the andidates. but on the is sue in politics, which are proposed for the benefit of the city.
 Your inquiries may be grouped un- der three heads: 1st. the running eX- penses of the city; End, provisions made for taking care of maturing bonds; and, third. the enforcement of laws.
 To the first l would answer that l regard the financial matters of the city one of primary importance. It's obli- gations must be promptly and fully met. and I would enforce the strictest economy in the current expenses or the city. consistent with an effective administration. but l do not think that such economy should be carried to the extent of crippling any department The city must ntinue 10 improve it's Istreets and provide liberally for schools. Adequate provisions should be made for these ma tiers,
 regret to say that I do not think the expenses could he substantially reduc- the first time, taxes from the property recently annexed. and l believe that a careful administration can find means to make it's Income meet it's expenses. To the second, l would say that pro vision should be made for the refund ing of bonds soon to fall due. l think that with the advice and assistance of the Council, these bonds should be marketed at par and do not think the administration would have much dlt- l ticulty in making satisfactory arrange ments to this end
 Third. I fully agree with you that the | law should be enforced in q steady and uniform manner, day in and week out and to that end I pledge myself to se- | lect for the head of the police depart ment some man who I believe capable and willing to carry out such policy Furthermore, I will stand firmly behind him, support ing him with all the zed l and force which a sincere and sympa- thetic executive could exert If exist | ing laws, after being fairly and hon estly tried. are found insufficient, vii urge the Council to supply the defect | If any person charged with the duty ol l enforcing the laws fails to use his bes 1 efforts to that end, then promise tnAi

SITUATION RELIEVED.
France Going Slow in Differences With
 Germany.

Paris. April s.--The tension between France and Germany over Morocco continues to be the burning question Of the day but it has been much relieved by the reassuring statements of for eign Minister Delcasse in the Chamber of Deputies yesterday. Public opin- ion remains calm strongly disapprov- ing of the fiery utterances of few extremists like NJ NJ. Nm. Clemenceau and Guyot de Villeneve, who have spoken of the possibilities of war. Such an eventuality is not considered in any serious quarter. although it Is recog- nIzed that the chances of approach ment between France and Germany have been put of for many years by the renewed bitterness the incident has aroused. The affair is now expected to enter by slow stages into diplomatic channels during which exchanges, more or less acrimonious. will probably oc- cur but nothing more. France Will abide by the Anglo French treaty of 1904 by which Germany's interests can not suffer

cottagers are continually annoyed by
camera fends, reporters and other
objectionable people who really have
no right to tread the sacred grounds.
The cOttagers claim that they have a
right to seclusiOn, inasmuch as they
are exclusives, and it is no part ofthe
public's business what they do or say
in their own part of the city, to build
up which they have spent vast sums
of money. In view of these and other
facts, recited in a petition that is be-
in signed for presentation to the
legislature, the summer cOttagers pray
the legislature to give them separation
from Newport under the name of South
Newport. They promise that they will
m AXE it a model town.
A smart set city would be a novelty.
A municipality governed by people
who attend monkey dinners and
poodle teas would be an interesting
innovation. 1t is not suppOsable, of
course, that the social swells would
themselves attend to the details of
! government; they would employ serv-
ants to do that for them. But in a
general and dangerous sort of way the
swells would indicate what they desir-
ed and the Wallets and buffers would
do the rest. But it may be doubted
that Rhode Island will permit a divis-
ion of Newport. Rhode Islanders are
thrifty, and the natives need the mon
ey of the taxpaying incoming million
aires. What the trusts are to New
Jersey the millionaires are to New
port in the way of supporting the
government.

An Interesting Innovation by Ultra
Rich People Who Attend Monkey
Dinners and Poodle Teas.
At its next session the legislature of
Rhode Island will be petiOned for a
&iivorce between the southern section
Of Newport and the remainder of that
eity. The southern section is that in
EhiCh the smart set has its summer
residences, and in the smart set a pc
Aihon for divorce seems always in
order.
The rich ultra-society people who
have acquired residences and citizen
Bhip in Newport many of whom are
alleged to be tax-dodgers from other
sCities-are kicking about their tax
burdens and the slight returns they
receive from their tax payments. They
claim that they are paying TO per
gent, of Newport's revenue, or about
$4,000 out of total of 1915, 900,
sEhile the municipality spends for
lights, police and fire protection, ETC.,
|Only about $50, 900 year for the ben

ROCKEFELLER A JOKER.
HumOrists Visit Oil King and Make
Him a Member of Their Craft.


Him "a Member of Their Craft.
In a happy mood John d. ROckefel-
Ter recently received the members of
the American Press HumOrists' asso-
citation at Forest Hill, his summer
home near Cleveland, and conducted
them about the place, says a Cleve
land dispatch. The oil king broke all
presidents, for never before has any
one dared to enter his preserves, and
he has never received delegations nor
has he ever acted as a guide.
The Cleveland jokesmiths asked per
mission the other day to go through
his grounds in automobiles, and much
to their surprise the request was
granted. Piling into large touring cars
and headed by Mayor Tom L. Johnson,
the humorists were driven to the Rock
efeller home. They found their host
playing golf with DR.. Biggar, his physi-
clan.
I'm pleased to meet you," he said
extending his hand and his manner in
dicated that he really was. II want to
meet all of you" For the next few
minutes Mr.. Rockefeller was shaking
hands cordially with the men who har-
pooh and gridiron him six days a week
"NOw," said Mr.. Rockefeller when
handshaking was over, Il want you to
take some flowers. Over here is bank
Of snowballs. Come, gentlemen; help
yourselves. Out with your knives,
please. Cut the best, the largest,
lunches" Mrs. w. r. Rose pinned to
his coat a buckeye on which were the
letters "A. p H"
you are most kind" said Mr. Rookie
Teller Il am one Of you now, am l
not? Thank you. | want to show you
some of my trees. We have an oak
that we selieve is 420 years old"
MIR. Rockefeller" said Mayor John
son, IF you become so attached to the
east that you do not care to use this
beautiful park l hope you will turn it
over to the city of Cleveland and let
the people enjoy it." Mr.. Rockefeller
Joined in the laugh that followed and
said, THE mayor Is wide awake"
Mayor Johnson spoke OF Jne SllC VI
Rockefeller park, telling what a fine
place it was. Thank you" said Mr..
Rockefeller. 81 am glad you like it. l
am glad the people enjoy 1t. The parks
should be for the people, and 1 am hap
by to think they use the park and find
enjoyment there"
Only once did he refer to the criti-
cism of his great wealth, and DR.. Big
gar told him to be careful of what he
said about the trees.
Ladies and gentlemen" said Mr..
Rockefeller, taking off his cap-'and ]
say this especially for your benefit, DR..
Biggar-when l was a small boy l was
taught not to believe all 1 heard or
even what read in books"

Two Connecticut Lads, Blind In Day
light, See Well at Night.
On the east side Of Hartford, Conn,
live two brothers who during daylight
are nearly as blind as owls, but at
night can see like cats, says Hartford
dispatch to the New York World.
When the sun is shining Lyman and
Abe White, one six and half years
old and his brother three years young
err, seek the darkest and shadieSt
places they can find to avoid the glare
Of light that makes vision practically
impossible for them When the shades
Of night fall they are ready for any
thing, and in condition of darkness
that prevents their little friends from
seeing anything around them Hyman
and Able are perfectly at home.
The father Of the two boys named is
a dealer in bottles, and he has had the
eyes Of his two sons examined by ex-
perts in Hartford and New York.
Nothing that has been done has helped
their condition. The boys are not de-
pressed in spirits by their at1iction.
They are sorry they are unable to play
with other boys in the bright daylight,
but they remain cheerful and are usu-
ally able to find some companions in
their shady and sheltered retreats iii
Riverside park.
The darker and more shaded the spot
the better it suits Hyman and Able,
and they are glad when the sun goes
down and permits them to see clearly
the objects around them. Their little
eyes are peculiarly sensitive to light.
The neighbors say the White boys
will have to be taught in the night
schools, as they will be unable to study
during the daytime.

TEW YORK PAPER TAKES NOTICE
OF THE CAMPAIGN IN GEORGIA
FROM THE NEW YORK SUN.

ed mat he Is trying to induce Georgia
to pass law abridging the privileges
and immunities of citizens of the Unit
ed States. But we have absolute
trust in Mr. Smith. Not for the
world would he do anything to hurt
the constitution; and candidate must
talk, and the more premature he is
the more need for talking.
1t has been suggested, as a proper
corollary and application of Mr..
Smiths theory, that all foreign corpo-
rations should be excluded from Geor-
gia. Foreign express, telegraph,
steamship companies and commercial
corporations and firms must not be
allowed to do business in Georgia.
Georgia for the Georgians, and the
Georgians for the Hon. Hoke Smith
We regret to observe that Mr.
Smiths scheme of railroad reform has
not been welcomed as its ingenuity de-
serves. Georgia has waxed fat with
prosperity, peaches and watermelons
Even great statesman like Hoke
Smith, who has, or says he has, a
"divine call'' to be governor of Geor-
gia, seems to preach his gospel to
deaf ears. Is it the warm weather
that makes Georgia callous? The
nomination of a governor only year
or so away, and no fires on the hill
top, not even a Smith family barbe-
cue! Yet there will be change when
Georgia has time to consider the great
benefits that will accrue from chang
ing cars at the state line. Fares may
be little higher, but who will grudge
a little money in behalf of HOke
Smith and railroad reform? By this
time next year we hope to see Georgia,

Broxton,

terminal station at Mitchell street and
Madison avenue, the Louisville and

WAR SHIP SENT TO COSTA RIGA
Will Convey Minister to Point Where
American Citizens Are Imprisoned.


After consultation between the state
and navy departments at Washington
it has been decided that warship
shall be sent to one of the Costa Rican
ports to convey American Minister
Merry, at last accounts in San Jose,
northwest to the nearest point on the
coast of Nicaragua or Honduras, to
the place where William S. Albers,
an American citizen, and his brother
are confined, pending a charge of re-
sisting legal process and of insulting
the president of Nicaragua.
The gunboat Princeton, now at Pans
anna, is the nearest warship to Octil in
the province of Segovia, where Albers
is imprisoned. According to informa-
ton received here Albers resisted at
tempts of the government tobacco
syndicate to seize his crop of tobacco
under various pretexts.

TOGO's SHIP BURNS AND SINKS.
Japanese Flagship, Mascot of Battle
of the Sea of Japan, Is Lost.

OF the sea Oh Japan, is LosC'
A Toxic dispatch announces that
the japanese battleship Mikasa, which
was the flagship of Vice Admiral
Togo during the battle of the Sea OF
Japan, caught fire and sunk at 2:30 a.
m. Monday.
The Mikasa was a first class battle
ship of Is, 200 tons displacement. She
was built in England and was launch
ed in 1902. The battleship was 400
feet long and had a speed of over Is
knots and carried four Pinch guns,
fourteen 8-inch guns, twenty l-pound-
ers and a number of rapid-fire guns.
She had four submerged torpedo
tubes.
The loss of life by the sinking of the
battleship Mikasa totals 500 officers
and men, including attachments from
other warships which went to the
rescue of the vessel.
The fire started from an unknown
cause at midnight on Sunday night,
SeDtember 10. Before the officers
could be rescued the fire reached the
aft magazine, which exploded, blowing
a hole in the port side of the vessel
below the water line and causing the
shin to sink.

of the killing of bunch of twenty-One
