COMMISSION GOVERNMENT.

A commission form of government for Hot Springs would be a material improvement over the present form A great majority of the citizens be. lieve this, in fact know it, from apply ing the successes of other cities to the opportunities of this Yet there seems to be nothing done in the mat ter of putting the work in concrete form
 On the few instances when commis- sion form of governemnt has been proposed to our people in public gath erings, the sentiment has been ex- pressed almost unanimously ia favor of the change.
 The big advantage is that municipal affairs are operated by tAree non. partisan commissioners. Each cop- missioner is directly responsible for his branch of the government There is no mayor over all There is no council with which to jockey or to di. vide responsibilities
 The work is divided so that one man may have the police and fire de- partments under his control Another might have finance and legislation. Still another would have streets and public works There would be a di- rect responsibility, and when a com missioner failed to give satisfaction in his department the people could effect change without much trouble aad could change the head of one city department without effecting the heads of other city departments
 The plan has many advantages. The people want a commission form of government for Hot Springs The state legislature will meet in January, Long before that time there should be a legislative bill formulated thor oughly presented to our people for their inspection and their criticism or approval, and then sent to the | legislature with a generous endorse nent that the state law making body | might permit us to work out the change here within a very snort time thereafter,

HUERTA SILENT
ON WILSON'S ACT
Continued from first page.

United States calmly point TO the fact
that the sentiment OF the people has
changed so much in the last few
months that they will secretly applaud
President Wilson's action, instead Of
assailing Americans here.
President Huerta has delayed max
ing a statement either to the public or
the foreign diplomatic representatives
His attitude is one Of doubt, although
many are relying on his assurance a
few days ago that such action would
not alter his attitude toward Ameri-
cans. That he will make any direct
statement TO the American Charge is
not certain, as Mr.. Shaughnessy had
no part in notifying him of President
wilson's move.
Many Americans are planning to
leave at once for Vera Cruz, the only
port by which they can leave the coun-
try, and reservations on trains have
been so great as to necessitate extra
cars. Mrs. 'Shaughnessy will remain
with her husband at the embassy.

cat developed in the Colonial Hotel. at
Eighth avenue and 10th street, yester-
day afternoon.
1t frightened a porter so badly that
the last seen of him he was passing
Yonkers without stopping for water or
gas. Also, 1t routed and upset a

erty loss of $3.50.
The porter had gone to the cellar for
some provisions out of the refrigerator.
which is directly under the cafe. AS
he opened the ice box door a big cat
sprang out. The porter fell down. He
got up and beat the cat 10 terra firma
by two full jumps.
Mad cat" he yelled, and kept on his
way.
Colonel John Danford, late Of the
Confederate army. saw the enemy APP

up a few days and was hungry.
The colonel swung at the animal with
a chair and missed. Down went the
colonel and up went the cat, this time
over the bar into a collection OF fancy
cut glass and silverware which is used
in the place TO keep the gentlemanly
attendants busy early in the morning.
The cat put this collection out OF
business and then disappeared toward
avenue.
From the gait at which the cat was
speeding he is expected to meet the
porter somewhere around Terra del
Fuego.

Sir Edward Grey Admits Help

Manchester, Feb. Sir Edward Grey.
Secretary Of State for Foreign Affairs,
in an address to-day before the Cham
ber Of Commerce on the subject Of for
eign policy and ornaments admitted
that Great Britain was partly responsible
and open 10 criticism for setting an ex-
ample by building the first Dreadnought.
He believed, however. that at that time
the idea of Dreadnoughts was in the
air and they would have been got into
the sea in any event.
Moreover, the increase in the number
of Dreadnoughts, he said. was now pro-
ceeding without reference to British ex-
penditure, and the remarkable thing was
that while an increase in one country
provoked increases I'm other countries
slackening in one country, even when at
tributed TO exhaustion failed to produce
slackening in the others. He, therefore,
feared that a reduction in Great Britains
naval estimates would not influence
European building programmes
Announcing that he had known be-
forehand and had Endorsed all the sug-
gestions made to other countries in favor
OF reduction in ornaments, the For
eign Secretary expressed the hope that
the loud demands likely to be made in
Parliament for a reduction would not be
misinterpreted abroad as an indication
OF inability TO stand the financial strain.
Great Britain had felt that strain the
least. but he had forebodng that the
competition in ornaments would
eventually lead to disaster and sink the
ship OF European prosperity and civiliza-
ton.
