 ''I shaIT not tell you.'
 Matt had risen. He was in a white heat at. the way he had been victim Hzed, at his own helplessness, at the deliberate vfl1ainy of the whole pro ceedings. Had these people robbed him of his ring for no other reason than to make him penniless and to place him, as they thought, at their mer- cy? God only knew how they had got the ring from Snood & Hargreaves, but there it was, glittering on that smooth scoundrel's finger, and as like as not an international provocation to 8 violence they would craftily turn to account But they would learn their nistake-learn What all the rings or blood money in the world could not 9werve him an inch.
 "I've finished with you,'' he said hoarsely. 'Goodby!'
 He turned toward the doorway, no longer afraid, but in the humor to fling back the curtain and stride right through the eavesdroppers. If they blocked him so much the worse for them. He was powerful man. He could hit like sledgehammer when his blood was up. He welcomed the chance to land some smashes on those unseen faces and drive them before him like sheep. But he had scarcely moved before MT. Kay, with incredible agility, had Ieaped in front of him, slamming the door shut and locking it, confronting him as he did so with a stare of abject terror.
 Don't, don't!' he screamed out in- coherently. They're crazyI They haven't any sense! I won't be party

DIR. DIANE ADDRESSES
 POLISH MASS MEETING

Dr. Charles W. Deane, superintend- ent of schools, speaking to a meeting of Polish men in the Republican club rooms last night urged them to learn English in order to be better citizens.
 You need to be able to read Eng fish in order to vote, to be citizens, but you need to read a great deal more to be intelligent. You must know enough and read enough, so that you may form your own opinions. You can then make up your minds and need ask no ones opinion. Our motto is for each one to decide things for him self.''
 About 100 men attended the meet ing.

TO MAKE
LAWS effective.

A candidate came to this Office
= few days ago and stated that he
had been approached by Il voter,
who desired a statement from him,
the candiuate,) AS to the manner
he proposed to distribute certain
patronages of the office to which
he aspired, should he be elected.
He Piled for time. Our advice
was asked. We replied Drop
It quick. 1t is hot poker, and it
is hot at both eDds.'
While \ candidate may with
perfect propriety pledge the pub
lie his best e1deavOrs along Ger
tain lines, it would be safer for
him not to pledge individual vot.
ers anything that would have a
tendency Of influencing that voter
in the preparation Of his ballot.
Candidates should he put on
guard against doing anything tha,
might keep them out Of the offices
they seek.
The idea Of organizing u leagne,
the purpose of which shall be the
securing of a healthy public senti-
ment and respect for some of the
new laws just going, or about to
20 into effect, would, therefore, be
a proper move. The league,
as we shall style it, should have
absolutely nothing to do with any
mans candidacy for oflice-oD the
contrary, it would be open to all
candidates, who would be invited
to become active members Of the
league.
Among the laws, that such =
league could foster, WOuld he the
"corrupt practice Act OF 1912
This act could be made the means
Of II great reform IN politics. 1t
would protect the honest caDdi-
date and politician from the IN.
scIupulous, who numerousIy min.
giles everywhere; and it would 60
many a rod IN the direction Of
protecting the honest voter and
taxpayer against the unscrupu-
lons acts Of those who should not
be i'm politics. 1t would at least
add greatly to the risk Of doing
business along old lines in the
political world.
Another of these new laws
which may need the fostering
hand of an encouraging league to
steady its gate till 1t can catch
step with the music, is the Prefer
entail Ballot ordinance Of this city.
It was framed for holy purposes
and intended to conserve the com
mon good. Therefore, it would
be unpatriOtic in anyone to seek
to make it's provisions imperative
especially should such one
seek such results from selfish mo
tlves.
Lets have the league and lets
make the reforms effective.
