This was decided upon instead of

business men. But instead everybody.

Board Endorses Tambourine.
The Advisory Board, on the mo-
tion of E. L. Stephens, and second of
Mrs. S. L. High, passed a resolution
the tambourine, instructing
Captain Walsh to pass it in Brunswick
at least once week everywhere in
Brunswick whittier and when he
pleased. The ambtourine produces a |
small sum each week, and because of
the small sum already collected in the
campaign it was considered necessary
to continue its use.
Continued Donations Asked.
Mrs. S. L. High explained a plan
whereby the Army would not suffer as
it has for the necessities of life while |
it gives its pennies collected to the
hungry of the city. Instead, Mrs. High
was instructed at her request to con-
fer with each ladies organization of |
the icty and ask for an appropriation
from their treasury of $500 per month |
each for the support of the local Army. |
This plan will provide around $500

ing the request, it is believed that
Judge Evans will pass the necessary

pany as he sees fit.
Widespread Interest.
There is general city-wide interest
in the final disposition of the local
street car lines, and the matter is just
now the subject of earnest discussion
among all classes of people of the city.
A great many plans towards preserv-
ing this vital public service to the city
are receiving consideration, and it is
not at all improbable that a general
mass meeting of citizens of the city
will be called in the next day or so
to go into the situation thoroughly,
and see if some satisfactory solution
to the problem cannot be found.
Many Favor Purchase.
There is a growing number of vot-
efs who believe that the city govern
ment should make some sort of ar
rangement for the purchase and: op-
erstion of the street car system. The
company has already submitted a def
mite proposition, together with fig
ures which show that, with the proper
management. the city could float a
bond issue, buy the system, and oper-
ate it in such manner that the bands
could be retired within 80 years.
Col. duBignon's Plan.
.Col. John e. duBignon, retired CAPT
talist,s and one of the city's leading
citizens, is among those who believe
that. some sort Of arrangement should
be made by the city for the purchase
and operation of the street car sys-
TEN. Col. duBignon has already work
ed out tentative plan whereby the
system can be purchased, and oper-
ated :at a profit to the city, This in
cludes the possible installation of a
power plant by the city, Or the pur-
chase outright of the present privately
owned light, water and gas plants, at
fair price. He believes that such a
course would effect a saving to the
people of the city in the costsof these
necessary items sufficient to pay for
the street car service. And there are
a great many others of similar, opin
ion. A public mass meeting is be
lieved to-, be the best method of ar
irving at the sentiment of the people
of the city, and 1t is almost certain
that such a gathering will be held
within the next few days.
