The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1913-11-04

There has been no vacillation or
timid indecision on the part of Presi-
dent Wilson in his attitude toward
Mexico. He has been consistently
hostile from the start toward presi-
Dental title founded in assassination,
and the climax comes today In the
news from Washington that the
president has informed Huerta in eff
feet that he must step down and out
If diplomatic relations between the
two countries are to be maintained.
Huerta's refusal to do so would not
necessarily mean war, but 1t would
set up a dangerous condition that
might make it necessary for or
trooNs to cross the Rio Grande. We
suspect that Huerta has been bluff
fing, and now that his bluff has been
called, that fact in connection with
the continued success Of the Carran'
"a rebels in the field is likely to lead
to the RESIGNATION of the dictator
Events are moving RAPIDLY in Mexico
and stirring news from that quarter
may be expected any hour.

do this that has called for all this

attitude in the Telegram on one or
two occasions was little too much
for me and the old boyhood habit re-
turned, for which l beg pardon of
the reading public.
The mayor seems to be persistent
sort of a body and every time !
knock his chip off he walks around
on me or some one else while and
puts that chip right back on his
shoulder or gets him a new one.
This time he has punched me in the
short ribs few times and put that
same old chip back on his shoulder.
So | will see if | can knock it off
again The mayors memory Is not
so bad but that he will remember
that the Council, the mayor, the COM
all hands, and the cook
were in friendly discussion of ways
and means to find out from the SUI
preme Court who was to run the city
government next ysr. The attor-
neys and their fees came up as a mat
ter of course. The mayor will re-
member that did not jump at the
opportunity to pay nearly double
$500 but offered a resolution that the
matter be referred to committee and

torneys. If | had had any idea the

that the bond trustees, t t.'t mayor ard
the Council had just been served with
a notice that they should not pay to
the people who paved our streets tie
money due them because their at
torneys at Arcadia claimed more than
a thousand dollars as a fee for a
friendly suit before the Supreme
Court, and he had perfect right to
lie very cautious about getting the
city into lawsuit unless the cost
was determined beforehand. The
mayor will remember that he did
have great deal to do with employ
ing the attorneys, that he employed
one of them in fact and agreed that
the Council had to pay him not $50
nor $50 but as much as the city -
torney got whatever that might be.
The mayor will remember that he
was not bashful about telling the
Council so. The mayor will remem-
Der that the Council has never before
had to ask him for reasons for his
opinions; he has always had the full
est use of the floor and has never
failed to express himself fully and
freely-save this one time when $500
could have been saved to the city.
He might have at least winked at
some of us to let us know he had not
told 1t all. But what is the use CT

WHAT IT MEANS.

The question, Describe the com mission form of government" was F. gently put to d number of authorities on tho subec., and the most concise and direct answer was in the follow ing:
 The commission form of govern ment is government by a committee or board consisting of a small num- Der of members, as three, five. seven or nine. who are elected by popular vote (prsferanbly at large by propor- tional representation this commis- sion being directly responsible 10 the people for the proper conduct of all gosarnniental affairs, as in an ordi- nary business corporation. Its func- lions are both legislative and execu-, tive. The mayor is usually simply chairman of the commission withou veto or appointive power"
 So you may observe that one of the advantages in commission form of government is that there are man in direct responsibility in all city de- partments all the time. For instance, there is a fire and police comms- sioner," and that commissioner is re- sponsible for these departments. Other city departments are likewise apportioned,
 Municipal government is simplifisd. The three commissioners enact tha city laws. They have exclusive con. trol of the men under their depart ments. If anything is wrong there is not a group of men to shift the re. sponsibiliiy about between. You know who is responsible. and you find out why things are wrong.
 There are many advantages and distinctions, some of which are emu merated in the following;
 There is no log rolling between representatives of numerous subdiyis. ions of the city
 Public business attended to at a moments notice.
 Continuous sessions of officials.
 Greater publicity for municipal bus mess.
 Concentration of public opinion.
 Increased interest in city govern, ment
 Responsibility fixed and organiza tion simple
 Municipal in place of contract work.
 General Improvements provided for at the beginning of each year by q simple and ust procedure,
 Budget system simplifed.
 Special assessment board
 Franchises more strictly controlled
 By abolishing ward elections the aldermen or commissioners elected represent the whole city.
 A union of executive and legisla, tive functions
 Council or administration secures better team work among the admin. istrative branches and officers.
 Efficient accounting system and purchasing agency provided.
 If such advantages are worth any thing 70 the handling of a municipal ity, if they would make Hot Springs what we have dreamed 1t should be, why not use your influence for such a change?

ILLEGAL TRAFFIC
 IN POSTAGE STAMPS
FRAUDS HAVE EXTENDED INTO MILLIONS THROUGHOUT ALL
 PARTS OF THE COUNTRY.

Washington, Jan. 23-Illegal traf- licking the country over in stolen postage stamps aggregating several millions of dollars annually has just been disclosed by postofhce inspec- tors whose investigations were re- ported today to Postmaster General hitchcock. They involved so-called stamp brokers and confidential em- ployes of large business concerns throughout the United States.
 Through confessions obtained by the inspectors from some of the brok CTS, whose operations were investl- gated, 1t was learned that stamps os all classes and denominations, stolen by burglars from postoftice and em- bezzled by employees from great busi- ness houses and manufacturing es- tablishments were purcnased and re- sold by the brokers dt prices far be- low their face value
 The postal laws make it a crime prl ishable by Imprisonment to sell
 n' stamp issued by the government for less than it's face value. Inyesti- gations disclosed that in addition to st ling the stamps for less than a price they could have been purchas. ed for from the government, the brokers knew that the stamps were stolen when they purchased them.
 Inquiries showed that brokers, in
 some instances entered into con spiracy with employees of business houses to buy at prices agreed upon all the stamps the clerks could steal from their employers.
 The first of series of indictments resulting from the Investigations was
 handed down sealed in New Yorl yesterday. The men indicted wert Richard Frederioks, Irving 'Izzy' Sevel, and John Frank. District Al tirney Whitman informed the postof flee department there will be othel indictments.
 Frauds against the government ant various business concerns aggregat ing hundreds of thousands of dollars annually has been unearthed in New
 York city alone, while illegal trat l licking in stamps in Boston, Phila delphia, Pittsburg, Chicago, India
 napolis, St. Louis, Minneapolis ant
 Cincinnati, New Orleans, Kansa,
 City, Denver, San Francisco, Seattle
 Portland and many other cities ha: reached large proportions.
 In New York approximately twent. so-called brokers make a business 0 purchasing postage stamps at prfc, ranging from fifty cents to ninet, cents on the dollar and selling then
 to merchants at prices varying iron 95 cents to 99 cents on the dollar. One stamp broker in New York cit, who sells from $500 to $1 ,000 worth o
 stamps day to merchants, it is al legged. has been purchasing some o
 his supply from an employe of tn New York state government at Al bany. The employe confessed to post office inspectors that ne remitted tS
 the stamp broker from $25 to $5l
 a week in stamps stolen from th' state.

INCREASE WEIGHT QUICKLY
Simple Way for the Thin and Pale to
