COMMUNICATED

la last Saturdays Gazstte a writer
SAYS that in Alexandra the boys license
seems 10 be Unlimited and that they do
as they please without interference and
with no regard to the rights of others
and suggests thst all this could be
remediei by the arrest and proper pun
ishment of q single offender. He closes
with the mourpful question, "But who
will bell the cstg' Evidently he thinks
it rather too hard 10 undertake and
leaves It to som cone else. Now the
writer of this, knowing the situation and
not afraid TO suggest tie remedy, would,
had he the power, put the right men in
the right pllces; i. e., have policeman,
10 his gorgeous uniform, to DO at the
northwest corner of Washington and
Wolfe streets when the hours of dismiss
pg come and follow up the crowd until
they divide and dispsrse. II possible
there should be another on the southeast
corner of St. Asaph and Wolfe for the
ssme purpose. Turn over all offend.
ers to the Police Court, and it will
do the rest. OF course, the same should
be done at the colofed echool.

This activity on the part of tho
democrats with political ambitions II
I'm striking contrast to the ietharg!
displayed by a majority Of the repub

on tho republican side are those who
announced themselves before tn,

Of republican candidates Is du'
largely to the uncertainty as to th,
tttitude the party will assume towarC
the constitution and the legislativ,
gerrymander which the best inform

a most difficult matter to secure
republican majority In the first iegis
lature. Furthermore the democratic
cause Is strengthened by the fat
