Advantage Of Mule

AT an early hour this morning, be-
fore the rain had melted the ice Oh
the streets, Charles Parsons did i
stunt on skates which would have
furnished good material for a moving
picture shoa.
Just as J. 5. AcNeal Of the Cen
tral blacksmith shop was passing with
a span OF small mules which he was
driving with the harness. but no We.
hicle attached. Parsons was out III
the street in front OF the Gilkey,Jar.
Doe hardware store showing what
he could do on skates. The manner
in which the little mules were feeling
their way, with the front feet OF each
incased in gunnysack bandages. at
tracted the attention OF everyone along
the street and Parsons. noticing the
attraction, grabbed one Of the mules
by the tail and thus holding on got a
delightful ride on his sNskates with mule
power attachment.
Ordinarily such a prank would not
be safe 70 recommend to the small
boy, but Parsons saw that the mule
could not well afford to lift his hind
feet to kick lest his fore-feet slip from
under him.

A REVIVAL At
BROAD Street
Great Meeting Will Begin on the First
Monday in May, Instead of the
Fourth, as Announced.

A revival meeting that promises to
be of great interest and helpfulness
to all who attend will soon be held at
the Broad Street Methodist hurch
The meeting will begin the fifth Sun
day in this month, instead of the
fourth Sunday, as formerly announc-
ed.
Those who have attended other
meetings at Broad street know what
stirring and helpful revivals are usu-
ally held there. The people of Broad
Street believe in having a meeting
that results in conversions that are
worth while and worth rejoicing over.
The meeting this year will not be
merely a series of divine services"

help to pass away the time and for
'meetin' indeed and in truth. The
people are praying and in other ways
are preparing for the meeting. The
singing, of course, will be a distinct
and helpful part of the meeting
Along this line these people are wor-
thy followers of Charles Wesley, the
sweet singer of Methodism.
The preaching will be of the very
best, by men who rely on the power
of the Almighty for their influence
in reaching the people. That man of
God. who never fails to have power
with God. and therefore, man, Rev.
George d. Anders will do the preach

your secretary of interior, a member
of your official family. He has been
proved faithless to his oath. He had
betrayed the people before you took
him in. He has betrayed the, people
and yourself since he became a cabi-
net officer. He admitted under oath
that despite the law and the dictates
of decency he acted as attorney for
interests that were attempting to, de.
spoil the government.
Nor is that the worst of it.. Your
attorney general under compulsion is
forced to admit he has deceived the
public and possibly yourself in one of
the gravest matters that has come be-
fore the nation for years, possibly
since the star route postal frauds of
Garfeld's time.
We submit that some change is
needed if you hope to restore even
part of the confidence which the peo-
pie had in you. Do you propose TO
keep these men in office? Do you
consider that the company of Knox,
another familiar of yours, is going TO
help you win back the trust of the ma
ton? Are you so blind that you can
not see that you stand at the parting
of the ways? You must declare on
what side you propose to stand. You
must realize that you cannot longer
race with the hare and hunt with the
hounds. How about it, Mr.. Taft?

Answer Mayor Gaynor, as mat
ter of duty, as matter of decency
and as matter of policy.
WAS not Cohalan the intermediary
between you and Charley Murphy,
and was he not largely instrumental
| in getting you the Tammany Hall
nomination?
"Was not Cohalan concerned in the
attempt to steal for you the nomina-
ton of the independence League,
which piece of political porch-climb-
ing Justice Gerard, an honest Judge,
effectually stopped?
Did not Comptroller Prendergast,
after you had been seated as mayor,
call your attention to the warrant for
Cohalan's $4,000, which was in your
office?
Did not Comptroller Prendergast
explain to you what it was and tell
you that if you would send the war
rant back to him he would make 1t
complete report on it and go to the
bottom of the matter?
did you not thank Comptroller
Prendergast and say that it was true
that these lawyers in such cases
were getting too much from the city?
did you not then fail to send the
warrant back to the comptroller and
fail to ask for the report; did you not
on the contrary, allow this padded fee
to go through unquestioned on Jan
uary fourth, 1910?
ITO your blatherskite abuse l am in
different, for in all such matters
consider the source, and the natural
irritation that a public official feels
in being exposed.
"A man or a newspaper that seeks
sincerely to serve the people and pro
tect their rights and their property
must always expect the antagonism
and abuse of the public official who
is exposed and pilloried.
"When the San Francisco Examin-
err first attacked and exposed Mayor
Schmitz in San Francisco, that indig-
nant individual denounced the exam
liner as a public enemy and had his
tame Board of Supervisors pass reso-
lutions condemning the paper and as
sailing me.
"Still. everybody knows today what
happened to Schmitz. And everybody
today would rather have Schmitz's
abuse than his condemnation.
when the New York Journal first
and exposed District Attor-
ney Jerome, that outraged prosecutor
rushed into print to denounce the
Journal and to abuse and sue me.
"Still, everybody knows what hap
pened to Jerome and what happened
to the libel suit, and most people to-
day would rather be sued by jerome
than praised by him.
Now I know perfectly we'll what is
going to happen to you, Mr. Gaynor.
THE people are going eventually |
TO find you out and repudiate you, and |
tan both you and your Thick Hyde

are now trucking and lickspitting to |
you in the hope of securing the city |
will in the end sacrifice |
those lucrative contracts for the price

about you"
