Says Statement is False.

w. G. Tilghman states that he has
been approached lately by colored
laboring men who have told him
that the statement is being made to
them that he Mr.. Tilghman is max
ing an effort to reduce wages. Mr..
Tilghman wishes the News to deny
these statements as wholly without
foundation. Not even the idea of
wage reduction had occurred to him.
On the contrary, he says, he has
raised wages to some extent since
the county went dry.
The stories in circulation are prob
ably those used in the campaign for
a continuation of the booze system.

Blind Tiger Captured.

p. r. Tigue, a negro barber on up
per Lemon street near Rabies old
saloon, has been arrested by Sheriff
Howell charged with running a blind
tiger. A jug of whisky and several
bottles of beer were found in Tigue's

THE COMMISSION SYSTEM

The commission plan of city gov-
eminent does not abridge Or curtail
an y Of the rights Of the public,neither
does it tend to kin or the great politi-
al parties deemed necessary to MAIN
tain balance of power for good gov
ernment. What the commission plan
accomplishes Is to eliminate the boss.
BY increasing the power and choice Of
the individual voters Ward and dis
trict lines are abolished, and the Conn
missioners are elected at large, by dir
ect vote Of the electors. Thus the
ward heller and district leader are
left with no opportunity to influence
results, and no power for graft
The Commission is all-powerful and
appoints most Of the city officials and
employees, and spends practically all
Of the money. Hence the practical
politician finds it waste Of time to
bother with minor Offices and jobs.
II he cannot control the Commission
his vocation is gore. By having only
four men on a commission and ap-
pealing to the public to nominate can
didates Of high character and ability,
good citizens twho ordinadily are apa-
thetic because Of the hopeless condi-
ton Of city affairs become aroused
to work and vote 70 i an efficient and
trustworthy government
Representative men, who would not
consider standing for an aldermanic
position, feel complimented by being
named for commission that IS to be
both honest and honored and viii
make pecuniary and business sacri-
fices to accept places. Men Of this
stamp secure the active support Of the
business element, which ordinarily
keeps out Of politics. The cities thai
have tried government by commission
have never had dishonest set of COM
missioners.

eminent is not confined to the three
cities named, Galveston, Nashville
and Norfolk. Houston has also fall
