MYSTERY
ABOUT Note
EXPLAINED

New Bedford, Mass, Jan. 1.-THE mys-
terry OF the $4,000 note, which has fig
ured so largely in New Bedfords fnan-
cial muddle, has been partially solved.
There never was any $500 note i'm anti
cipation OF taxes as has commonly been
supposed. so far as can be learned. The
facts are that the city authorities In 1904
under the authority Of chapter 439 of the
Acts OF 1900, relating TO the reloation and
completion OF the New Bedford and
Fairhaven bridge. issued a note for $751;
600
This was purely bridge note. and un-
der the etatute. should have been kept
entirely separate from regular city bust
ness but $4,000 OF it was dumped into the
treasury and used for department expen-
ses. while a straw note 20 the amout OF
$50 900 was carried I'm the list OF temporary
loan notes. The city treasurer has told
the mayor that the amount OF bridge
notes authorized by the city council was
exceeded The excess is thought to be
81. Oo0 However. that may be, it Is a
fact that the amount Of bridge notes au-
thorized was exceeded, while the bridge
money was used 10 run the city.
It appears that when the hearing was
held I'm the apportionment OF the cos, OF
the bridge last year. the statement fur
nished the commissioners was Incorrect.
At that time there appears 20 have been
q note Of $4,000 outstanding OF which no
record was given.
The money obtained I'm this indirect
manner was put into the treasury and
and used for running expenses. probably
10 take care of special appropriations
which that year aggregated over 500 coo.
IL Is understood that the city treasurer
adopted this method when city note fell
due that he was unable 90 meet.

SENATOR STOKES name is eliminat-

contest. A short time ago he declared
himself in favor of Senator Dryden,
and few days ago his secretary, Ed
ward w. Gray. made statement tax
ing exception to a published report
that if harmony was wanted the Gov
ernor was the only man upon whom
both factions of the Republican party
could unite for the United States
Senator. In commenting upon the
article, Mr.. Gray said Such stories
as this one are evidently printed with
the intention Of making trouble in
the Republican party. I know that
Governor Stokes is not and has not
been a candidate for the United States
Senate. He said publicly last week
that Senator Dryden had been victor
ious in the recent primaries, and was
the only candidate. know he has
not changed his views on this Dues
ti0n, and his speech at Che Gumber-
land convention in BridgetOn the
other day was further evidence as to
where he stood in regard to Senator
Dryden's candidacy. Any statement
that The Governor has entered the
race is not authorized. =

VERIFY, the Inconsistencies Of the
average Democrat is past finding out.
They grow enthusiastic over the nom
nation of James Il. MARITIME, the
original and altogether Bryan man Of
New Jersey, and who claims the honor
of having Induced Mr.. Bryan TO be-
come the guest of the Hon. James
Smith on the formers visit a few
weeks ago, and then refuse to adopt
resolutions endorsing Mr.. Bryan. The
farmer orator ought not to stand for
any such Inconsistencies.

AS we have occasion to remark in
former years, Hope springs eternal
in the Democratic breast, and the
county convention of that party shows
that this year appears to them the
Dime accepted. This is not to be
wondered at in the rank and file OF
party, but what has inspired the lead
ers to imagine that they can overcome
the from two to three thousand Re-
publican majority in this county is
past surmising. That they have hopes
is shown by their putting up their
choicest men to run for the various
Offices. So far as Mr.. Gillen is con-
cerned he is always optomistic, but
for Mr.. QuayIe, who is holding a ST.
200 job on the county tax board, and
who must realize that it is an I'M
Known political quantity in the com
ing election, TO take the nomination
for Assembly is an evidence of faith
that approaches sublimity. And then
the activity of former leader Robert
d. Foote, whose optonistic hopes n
the past were SO rudely shattered.
Can it be that Candidate MARITIME h; s
hypnotized the conservative men in
the party and made them ready to
put up great fight r Or is it posi-
sible that Mr.. Foote has become con-
WINGED that there is a prospect of the
Democrats carrying the Legislature
and that he will be the nominee for
the only political position that he
covetS, the United States Senator
ship? This Democratic activity will
doubtless add interest to the cam
paign, but the Republicans of the
county need lose no sleep over it.
