Representative Citizens of Meridian
Going After Commission Gov m Mt

Meridian, Miss March can en- /
thusiastic meeting. of representative
citizens was held at the Board of
Trade Wednesday night, when pre-
liminary organization was perfected
to further the interests Of commission
government for Meridian.
Mr.. A. B. Amis was elected perma-
nent president and F. c. McGhee, first
vice-president and H. H. Weir second
vice-president.
A committee will be appointed by
President Amis and will arrange plans
and details for circulating petitions
and securing an election before the
people for a change in the method Of
city government, which was branded
by business men of the city as ineffic-
lent, cumbersome and detrimental to
the best interests of Meridian.
The slogan of the meeting was pro
gressiveness.
Mr.. George B. Neville, reading a
letter from State Senator Clayton Pot
ter, of Jackson, explained how, in the
opinion of Mr. Potter, the recall Of
the three commissioners was changed
in the commission government bill
passed by the state legislature.
Mr. Neville said that without the re-
call of the commissioners the plan of
government proposed by the law en-
acted, is far superior to that now in
existence in Meridian.
''Under the present system the peo
pie have no protection, no safeguards
declared Mr.. Neville. Under the new
plan of government the people have
the right to have referred for theil
ratification any ordinance or Other
matter before it is enacted into law by
the municipal authorities, through the
initiative and referendum, which gives
them the right to initiate legislation.
"The present system is inefficien
s because it does not receive the atten
ton of those whose duty it is to lool
after the business of the city," MI
Neville declared. First they have t,
attend to their private business, whicl
they cannot neglect, and consequent.
the interest of the city suffers throug
the poor administration of its affairs

FOREIGN POWERS
 RECEIVE ORDERS
Special Nugget Service

RANKING. Jan. 20.-President Sun Yat Sen. has issued a statement to all foreign powers to keep their hands off and not meddle with China. The doctor declared that foreign powers will have to keep their hands of and allow the provisional government 10 handle the situation. for their con- stant meddling and bolstering up the Manchus is working a hardship upon the republic.
 The statement issued in the form of a warning to all foreign powers rath- cr belittles them for certain acts they are guilty of doing in connection with the present rebellion. The provisional President likcns the powers 10 a num- Der of people watching a fight between large and small dog. They know the little fellow is going to get licked and instead of calling the affair off and saving the little fellow they stand by and encourage the dog to keep up the fight just for the purpose of sat- isfying their lust of carnage.
