the club since Its organization on
Wednesday evening. Attorney William
NJ Dunn made a report as to progress
that had been made in regard to the
organization Of the town into a city
by the presentation of the petition to
the board Of trustees last Tuesday. The
opinion of Attorney General James
Bingham, which was received today by
President Manlove. was read before
the meeting, which defined the course
of action to be taken by which towns
may become cities. The opinion shows
that an election must first be held.
aafter which a certificate from those
in charge of the election must be filed
with the clerk of the circuit court

not been clear is that. whether or not
the ten days notice is required to be
given by the trustees for the election

election must be held in ten days or
at a later date. Attorney General
Bingham's opinion clearly defines this
point. He states that at least ten
days notice of the election must be
given, after which the election can
take place at any designated time.
This is the opinion:

When you apply here for a loan it
is strictly business deal-there are
nc formalities.

tial.
You can pay the money back in
weekly or monthly payments, to suit
you.
From one month to one year to pay
back, according to the size of the loan.
Rebate given for each month your
account is paid in full before the time
stated in contract. We charge you
only for the time you keep the money.
You don't have to own Real Estate
or bonds to borrow money from US.
We recognize that fact that most peo-
pie are honest. The possession of
household goods or piano, etc, is evil
dence enough of your ability to pay
back the money.
We do not advertise Cheap Rates"
or Cut Rates" as other companies do
who have just started in business, but
every person who has compared our
rates with others has been satisfied
to borrow from US.
We don't ask you to take our word
find out for yourself-get our rates,
then get others, or get other rates
first, then come here and compare.
WE MAKE NO DEDUCTIONS. We
give you the full amount you ask for.
If you want $4,000, you get $4,000.
Other companies advertise $4,000 for
so weeks and the borrower only gets
$4120 out of the $4,000 and is charged
for the full amount
If you owe another loan company,
we will pay them off for you and give
you more money at lower rates than
you are paying.
The assistance we can render you
is of a practical sort. Of course,
when we loan money it is purely a
matter of business, but we believe it
will make you a friend of ours, too.
You'll like the way we do business,
and the treatment accorded you. That
is how we have been able to build up
such a long list of satisfied customers

ures and square deal company.

DEMOCRATIC Conundrums.

The age of Ann has been de-
termined, nobody cares any more who
struck Billy Patterson, and Charley
Ross has been given up as definitely
lost, The conundrum, What is a
democrat?" and What is the demo-
cratic position on the tariff" are still
open for debate between Mr.. Bryan
and those who think they have a right
to an equity In the party label.
MI. Bryan continues to run his blue
pencil through the names IN the party
membership list and to assert that the
party is irrevocably committed against
protection. Senator McEnery of Loui-
siana tells the senate, while discussing
the sugar schedule, that free trade has
no place in the American scheme Of
government. Senator Stone of Mis-
souri,, with the apologetic mien of the
man who has Just stepped on your
corns, tells Mr.. Bryan that a little pro-
lection for one of the industries of the
senator's state is a good thing n that
the Nebraskan should o object so
seriously to the senator's looking after
his fences by a vote judiciously placed
on the iron ore schedule of the tariff
bill.
1t is a merry life this thing of
trying to be a democrat and figure out
whether your ticket is for the upper
or lower berth or whether, perchance,
you must do penace by walking to
Fairview with peas in your shoes for
daring to vote without taking, a cue
from the great .C|hautauquan, only to
find on the front door a new sign, "On
tour of the world, back in time to run
for president again in 1912"

The Mayors Message.

The message sent by Mayor Dahl
man to the new council has the merit
of being short and to the point and
free from all attempts at fancy writ
ing. 1t reads as II the mayor COM
posed it himself and contains nothing
against which there will be objection
from any source except from some of
the franchised corporations.
The principal part of the message
is a repetition of the platform d~eclara-
tions upon which the mayor was re-
elected and a reminder to the council
men-both republican and democratic
that the campaign pledges were
largely identical in all platforms. The
mayor is careful, however, not to en-
phasize the fact that some OF these
promises we're made in his campaign
three years ago, but are yet to be re-
deemed.
Fine words butter no p~arsnips and
1t remains to be seen whether the
mayor will be able to accomplish more
along these lines in a second term than
he did in his first. He started out
three years ago with just as fine prom
Uses. He also started out three years
ago with a council instruction on his
hands and he is by no means yet as
sured of clear sailing this time.

THE CULINARY DEPARTMENT OF
A GREAT MODERN HOTEL
At the st. Regis, New York, Every
Feature is Perfect of Its Kind.

Many a once-famous hotel has declined
in public estimation because its table"
was not kept up to the accepted standard;
and no ho~tel-however excellent in other
respects-can be more than very ordinary
and inferior II any feature Of its culinary
department is unsatisfactory. At the St
Regis Hotel, Fifth Avenue and Fifty fifth
Street, New York, there need never be
fear Of unsatisfactory food or service.
Although built to be Americas finest
hotel exquisite material surroundings for
its guests were not the only concern OF
its owners and manager. The kitchen of
the st. Regis is not excelled in its equip-
ment by any hotel or restaurant In Amer
lea; its cooks are selected for their ability
and experience. while its food supply must
pass the critical inspection Of the man
ager, himself a restaurateur of national
fame. In the dining rooms, as well, no
feature is lacking to secure perfection in
service. With all this painstaking care to
obtain superlative results; ST. Regis prices
remain within the reach of the great mid
die class Its restaurant charges are the
same as other first class hotels, and rooms
may be had as low as 50 and "a a day

stated plainly hat Germany was liv-
ing in constant fear of attack by Great
Britain and that every step forward by
Germany in shipping and commerce
makes the danger greater
How much of this talk, both in Ger
many and In Great Britain, is for the
purpose of forcing through the APP
preparations considered necessary for
naval development. no n of course
knows except those in authority, but
that behind it is a large measure of
mutual distrust and tear is obvious,
Whether it will stop short of either
war or bankruptcy of one or both, the
wisest can only guess.
