We are forced to expect a continu-
ance of their tactics in an endeavor
to defeat the commission plan. One
Of the ruses of the opposition will
be to agree upon and support Is
freeholders of their choice opposed
to commission plan, and then per-
suade a sufficiently large number of
good men favorable to our plan to
announce themselves as candidates,
in order to defeat, by dividing and
splitting up the friends Of the COM
mission plan and to elect their men
upon whom they will concentrate
their forces. BY organized and dill
gent efforts We have so far defeated
them at every step, but the fruits of
our efforts will be lost unless we
continue our work. In order to do
this effecually and to devise the
ways and means, the citizens COM
mite in charge of this campaign up
to the present stage has arranged
for a meeting of the friends of the
commission plan to be held at the

as possible of the friends Of the
commission plan attend.

SETTLING
Mr.. JONES

Two important moves were made
by the city council last night in tho
matter of the Cannondale water
supply, recently cut off by Arthur
d. Jones.
The first was the rendering of an
opinion by the corporation counsel
to the effect that the city, in its
right to protect the interests of its
citizens, could take over the Jones
water system temporarily until the
city Is itself prepared to supply
water. To accomplish this 1t was
agreed that the citizens of the af-
fected district should bring injunc-
ton proceedings against the city,
Jones and HilIyard to enforce the
delivery of water.
The second step of Importance
was the adoption Of an order call
ing upon the board of public works
to Immediately get supply Of new
kalemein pipe to be installed papal-
telling the Jones system.

The report of the probing COM
