That Development League.

Editor LEADER:-Will you kind
ly give space to answer a fool ac-
cording to his own folly" For
reasons unknown to the public, but
well known to most of the members
OF the League, the Reporter of this
week makes an insane attack upon
the League in his patent medicine
sheet that is almost as interesting
reading as his famous derby let
ter" For the benefit of the public
generally, let me say that the Tole-
do Development League includes
nearly every business man of the
city on its membership roll. Dad
Clark would not join, and the only
reason that seemed to appear was
because he could not be president of
the League when it was first formed.
Now he comes out with couple of
columns of bile because the League
is trying to do something for Toledo
and Lincoln county. He sneers at
the League for its failure to get a
ferry across the river at Toledo.
May the Lord have mercyyon his
soule, if he has one. The citizens
of Toledo pledged oyer 81 1000 for
this necessary work, not one cent of
which was pledged by the tight
wad" of the Reporter, On the
contrary he did all he could to de-
feat the project in an underhanded
way, not being man enough to fight
it openly. Yes, we lost the ferry
not because the citizens of Toledo
and the members of the League did
not do their part, but because we
had too many Clarks.
He says the League has only ac-
complished a few things. How
many have you accomplished, Dad
Clark? Have you ever supported a
public enterprise since running a
paper in Toledo unless you were
paid for it? And then there was no
assurance that you would not sell
out.
The matter is with Dad Clark, he
thinks that everything ought to con-
tribute towards his paper. The
League had some printing to do,
and it gave it to a member of the
League to print. 1t was the
Leagues work, to be paid for by
the Leagues money. 1t did not
rcome from Clark.
But Dear Dad Clark, don't get
mad because the League entertained
some public men, and did not ask
you to preside. Remember that
nobody kicked when you discovered
Cake, and printed his card and
picture. You had it all to yourself,
and while everybody knows that
you separated Cake from good wad
OF dough" nobody got jealous.
Come Dad, wake up; You are in
a live town, get alive. Get in and
help the League Or anybody else to
push for Toledo and don't have to
be bought every time public mat
ter comes forward.
! A Member of the League.

clone Had Struck Him After
Passing the Remark.

1t has been a long time since the
A. p. A movement had force in the
political history of the country, but
that il is still felt socially by indi-
yiduals was shown yesterday when
John Malligan. of Smelter. was plac-
ed on trial for disorderly conduct.
Because. his witnesses stated. he had
called Joseph Neill an "A. p. A he
had been struck in the face and
kicked while down. He was dis
charged from custody by Judge Cart
wright.
Malligan. 1t appears, became mixed
in an argument at dinner In a
Shelter boarding house and after
considerable talk back and forth APP
piled the term TO Neill. 1t was then
that he was knocked down, beaten
and kicked. having face covered
with plasters, to straighten broken
nose. to show for his encounter. NAL
ligan had been drinking heavily and
had no remembrance of the fight
other than that he felt like a ey-
clone had struck him. when he came
TO the next day.

Il mean by progressive elements,
the intelligent, independent citizens
who desire progress and reform, but
insist that progress and reform be
had along sound and legitimate lines

The Independence party in this
campaign is endeavoring in the first
place TO establish itself in every state

The party there will no longer have
to nominate by petition, but has Its
position established. This happens,
1t should be remembered, very early
in the campaign in a hopelessly Re-

Il believe as the campaign pro-
crosses that the party will become
immensely stronger: just as in the

MINES WILL GET A
SEPARATE DISTRICT
RIEpETOWN CITIZENS WIN
THEIR FIGHT FOR DIVISION
OF MAGISTERIAL DISTRICT.

Riepetown will after the coming
election, be a separate magisterial
district. that being the order entered
by the county commissioners at their
meeting last evening. The right to
elect their own justice of the peace
and constable is carried with this as
well as separate public fund to be
provided from their taxes for sup
port of public improvements.
For several months the citizens of
the town have been anxious to get a
iail. their own magistrate and a con-
stable. so that they might make ar
rests and have some place to confine
prisoners. They stated in commits
sioners' meeting that they could
avoid all of the things which had
caused their little town to be brand
ed The hell-hole of White Pine
county," If they had the facilities to
enforce order. They showed that 1t
entailed large expense on the coun-
ty as we'll as on witnesses to come to
Ely to attend trials and that people
were charry of having an arrest made
for that reason.
Previosu petitions have been turn
ed down on the ground that the con-
stable and magistrate of the Ely pre-
cinct were elected to have jurisdic-
ton over the district, and 1t could
not be disrupted during their term
of office. A petition signed by 26
residents and taxpayers vas present
ed to the board last evening. how
ever, and after consideration, the or
der was made granting them separate
life. The new district will include
the mines.

1t was stated last night by o. j.
