the power of the legislature.

the last legislature, the bill being
introduced by Warner, sought to
do awao with the off year cleo
tions. World Herald.

Michael Angeles Work.


Michael Angelo relied almost entirely
upon form-the form Of the figure and
OF the draperies. He told Pope Julian
H., when the latter requested him to
paint the ceiling Of the Sistine chapel
at Rome, that he was not painter,
but sculptor; yet, after he had shut
himself up for four yearS-from 15OS
to 1512-and the scaffold was removed,
q result had been achieved which is
without parallel in the world. Very
wonderful is the work which Michael
Angelo spread over this vast area Of
10000 square feet The fact that
there are 343 principal figures, many
OF colossal size, besides a great num-
Der Of others introduced for decora-
tive effect, and that the creator Of this
vast scheme was only thirty-three
when he began his work-all this is
marvellous, prodigious, and yet not so
marvellous as the variety Of expression
IN the figures Of which jeremiah Is on.

An Important Office.

Editor Oil Review:
Dear Sir:-jThe office Of city
Collector and Treasurer is one Of
importance. That without argu-
ment everyone comedies. Not
only as regards the collecting and
accounting Of moneys, but the
percentage reverting to the Col
lector for his services make the
office well worth seeking after,
aside from political motives. In
the Republican primary to be
held soon three names are pre-
sented: One, the present efficient
Collector and Treasurer, W. E.
Cummings: another, James F.
Frame, associated with the we'll
known furniture dealers, Frame
& Henderson; and O. J. Smith, a
trusted and efficient ex-emplOye
Of the Oil Review. Of course. it
is quite inconceivable that we
could all be Of one mind in regard
to the man to nominate for this
important office, but that either
gentleman mentioned have the
necessary qualifications for Col
lector and Treasurer of this city
no one that is even slightly ac-
quainted with them doubts. The
question. though, does not hinge
on the comparative fitness of
either. There is, however, a wide
difference between what a man
wants and what he needs. With
out meaning to put it indelicate-
Uncertainty not too indicate
ly, for we are not all milliOnaires
why not nominate o. j. Smith
for this office, thereby accom-
plishing a great goOd-if he is
elected? A VOTER.
