game OF pol,s,as being played in the
present city couhcil; politics SO en-

people is forgotten in this mad 500
reprehensiblei game OF making aaod

The News Jup to this time has
never brought the Mutual Light anu
Water Company into this campaign.
1t has no place in it. except in the
imagination of the pol ticiaps wde
dominate the affairs of the city coun,

adjustment of the differences long
pending between the mayor and
council and the Mutual Light and
Water Company. 1t incorporated
statement from the president OF the
Mutual Light and Water Company
to the effect that the company was
perfectly willing to sell its plant to
the city and would do SO in prefer
ence to all other bidders and would
aid the city Ia the matter Of fnanc-
ing the proposition.
Now. Mr. mayor and council, why
didn't you accept the proposition
Way did you hedge on it? Why di
you silence a resolution. introduced
by q member OF your own body
who exercised his free right as q
member Of your own organization ?
Why was this resolution consigned
to oblivion In the private apart

secret session? Why was It neces-
sary to cut out free speech and why
did you not take the people O
Brunswick. whose servants you are
into your confidence and give them
the benefit OF that Gale resolution?
We will tell you why. and the
people of Brunswick. unless we are

CHAS. e. SHIVELY WILL NOT B1
A CANDIDATE FOR ATTY.
GENERAL.
HE ANNOUNCES NO REASONS
Shiveley's Friends Think He Gould
Have Won Nomination if He
Had Tried.

Without assigning any reasons
Charles E. Shiveley yesterday an
nounced that he had decided not to
become a candidate for attorney
general. Mr.. Shiveley has had the
matter of his candidacy under con-
sideration for some time, but his de-
cision not to make the race for the
Office will come as no great surprise
to the Republican leaders Of the
state.
AS has been stated Wayne County
already has one candidate in the field
for state Office, Judge D. w. Com
stock, who is seeking reelection to
the appellate bench. It was not. Gin
sidered a wise policy for any one
county to have two candidates in the
field for state offices.
Many Of Mr.. Shiveley's friends
urged him to make the race because
they thought that he stood an excel
lent show for nomination owing to
his wide acquaintance throughout the
state, made since he has been Su-
preme Chancellor of the Knights of
Pythias, and while he was state SEN
ator from this county.

TUBERCULOSIS EXHIBITION.

The tuberculosis exhibition now be-
ing given at Tomlinson Hall, in In
dianapolis, under the auspices of the
Commercial Club and the National
Association for the Study and Pre-
vention of tuberculosis, offers a
splendid opportunity to those afflict-
ed with this dread disease to learn
how they may be cured. The exhibit
the mass of vital statistics in regard
to this disease, which are being made
public by the various speakers. These
statistics give a very encouraging
view of the fight which is being wag-
ed on the great white plague. They
state that tuberculosis is decreasing
that the total death rate in the Unit
ed States decreased 10 per cent from
1890 to 1900; that the death rate
from consumption fell Oft % pei
cent in the same time, and that the
most striking fall in the mortality was
in the cities; that the decrease The
last sixteen years in New York has
been 40 per cent; that this great fall
has been due to better times. which
means better food and shelter, great
er knowledge, through universal read
ing and education. The great lessor
the exhibition aims to teach is thai
consumption is durable in its early
stages, and is always preventable

Soldiers of Valparaiso have sent
memorial to Senator Hemenway

ate protesting against the common
practice of congress in passing spe-

legislation which is unpopular with
almost all soldiers except those who
get, or want to get such acts in their
own behalf. 1t is not popular eth
err with the members of the National
Congress. 1t has grown out of a
few very deserving cases which could
not be reached in any other way.
From this it was invoked in ohter
less deserving cases, until it is
greatly abused Many senators and
congressman feel that it is dangerous
class legislation, and that instead of
practicing it, congress should have
the courage to pass general pension
law so liberal that special acts would
not be necessary. Such is the senti-
ment of Congressman James E. Wat
son. Greenfield Star.
