JOHNSON SAILS
FOR EUROPE

NEW YORK. March 23-Tom
Johnson, former mayor of Cleve-
land, sailed today for Europe on the
liner Mauretania. AS Johnson
walked up the plank to board the
steamer he appeared to be weak,
and looks like ghost of his former
self. His health is broken from con-
tinued illness of several months.
He was accompanied by Mr.. and
Mrs. Joseph Fels of Philadelphia
Fels is one of the big soap manu-
facturers of the United States.
Johnson refused to be inter
viewed. He said, however. that he
was to be Fels' guest while in Eu-
rope. Johnson will be examined by
European specialists in connection
with the malady which is respons-
ible for his poor health. The nature
of the disease is being kept secret.
Johnson did not state when he
expected to return to the United
States.

WHY NOT PINE BLUFF!


 The great wave of municipal eman- ton, is sweeping the United States from coast to coast and from the Gulf to the provinces of Canada, even pene- trating the interior and finding hearty welcome in the wide-awake municipal ities of the Dominion. Wherever the question is earnestly agitated it becomes, sooner or later, a political issue to be decided by the people. The first instance of ultimate defeat has yet to be recorded. In all the cities where the question has come to a head commission government has been victorious and lived to vindicate it principles by the production of con crete and indisputable facts.
 I'm the complete elimination of poli- tics commission government finds it's greatest strength, and the Substitu- tion of business methods for the slap dash of the politicians always results in removing whatever doubts there may be remaining ill the minds of those who were non-believers in the beginning By eliminating the poli- tician and filling his place with straightforward business men, all the unnecessary expense-that of main taining a winning political machine through myriad petty appointments entailing salaries to come out ot the pockets of the people-is wiped out, and the revenues of commission cities are thereby diverted into their prop CT channels, thus inevitably resulting ill a reduction of operating expenses Instead of annual deficits commission cities which have operated under the new plan for as long a period as two years have, without exception. report ed either gratifying surpluses or ma terial reductions in colossal deficits inherited from the old plan of muni- cipal government.
 This municipal economy is accom- plished without in any way crippling the working forces in the various de- partments of commission cities, for the simple reason that there is no dead timber to be provided foc anl no padded pay rolls for the benefit of venal politicians who must 'get theirs" for certain services rendered By reducing the number of city em- ployes and requiring results from those remaining. commission govern ment cities mobilize their forces and get actual results where the old reg ime juggled the figures in order to make it appear that the people were getting their moneys worth.
 The people, as experience amply teaches are easily fooled on occasion, and to this fact alone the venal poli- tician owes his existence. By expos ing patriotic front he finds it aE easy matter to work havoc with the exchequer in the rear. This has been the custom i'm all cities of con- sequence in the United States for years. and great fortunes have been accumulated out of the peoples pock- cts merely because the old system is so complex and ponderous that none but experts understand it. From the rapacious days of Boss Tweed to the present day this has been the case. and it was left to Galveston, Texas. to utter the first protest. That protest has echoed and found fruit

Kniqhted Actors.

It is an odd fact that of the English actors knighted all but one had first 0 legalize the names under which they had won fame. The question arose with the first proposition to confer knighthood on gypsy. It would be absurd so to honor one John Henry Brodribb. Yet legally no such person as Henry Irving" existed. No such obstacle had to be overcome when, on the occasion of victoria's diamond jubilee, Squire Bancroft knelt before his queen and arose sir squire. How ever, the three actors knighted by King Edward bore cognomens of their own invention. Sir Charles Wyndham was born Culverwell, and Sir John Hare, Fairs. As for Sir Herbert Beer Sohm Tree, his brilliant wife once put 1t "'Tree' is a fantastic thing we just tacked on. We're all plain Beerbohms -piain as brother Aax"-Argonaut.
