STRANGE STORY OF \
 FISH THAT GOT AWAY

The title of this story is Nearly a Fish"
 The near" fish is a rancher who is worth about s20.000. He read an advertisement recently requesting finds to finance the fight against holding a special election on house Bill s3. On the surface, the argument made against holding a special cleo tion appeared to him to have some merit inasmuch as it stated that the farmer cannot afford to stand the expense of a special election. The rancher had about concluded to contribute 5 toward the fund when he read an editorial in The Re publican pointing out that if the special election cost s75.0O0-%nd even the opponents of the bill admit that it won't cost any more-then il would be a tax of one cent on each S1O0 of assessed valuation. In short the rancher figured to himself, the
 special election would cost him about
 g, his property being assessed or
 the value of $20.000.
 Save yourself the enormous cos1 of holding this special election by contributing to a fund to fight it. the anti-bill worker had cried. Yes" unused the rancher to him. self. .I'd be a fine fool to contributs S in order to save S2, wouldn't | And I'm not so sure that we don want a special election on such ar important thing as an amendment t 1 ,Ae state constitution

 The camp is only two miles from town and all soldiers have permission to visit the city of Douglas between retreat at 6 p. m. and taps at II D. p1. Jitneys make frequent trips and the nominal round trip fare of 20 cents gives everyone a chance to do SO. The boys have permission to use the swimming pool of the 18th infantry stationed at the camp, and judging from the yells coming from that di- rection one would imagine that they were enjoying it.

HORSES VICTIMS OF
 MERC|LESS CRUELTY

Making a special trip to complain of almost unbelievable instances Of cruelty to dumb animals in her vicin- ity. Mrs. Warren Smith of Liberty came 10 Phoenix last Saturday. After visiting various local officials. she called at the office of the governor and later at The Republican office. where she related several instances of inhumanity. two of which came under her notice Though not posi- tive as to the identity Of the perpe- trztor. she believed that they were the work of the same man and she said that others in the neighborhood were of her belief
 Mrs. Smith said that one night about 2 o'clock as she was driving home she saw fllckcring moving lights in a field at a distance. but they were approaching the roadway She thought she saw the outlines o' a couple Of horses and she believed that they were being ridden by boys carrying tourches in the way of q prank

ELIMINATING CITY MEETINGS.

| The political powers that be in the city are planning for the elimination from the charter of the city of the 1 "eity meeting or gathering of voters
 to put their approval upon expendi-
 lures or the city. At least we take
 1t that it is the wish of the powers
 that be to take the action, they have been doing the talking concerning it. The city meeting has been, in the
 past, one of the surest methods of
 obtaining what the populace wishes.
 even against the acceptances of those representatives of the people. the Common Councilmen. In the two
 years past there have been city meet ings to ratify the action of the Board
 of Finance and Taxation and the
 Common Council in making out a
 budget for the city for the year Both
 times these budgets have been accept
 ed by the Council, insofar as it was
 able to do so. and has gone to the city meeting with official sanction.
 Both times the budget was defeated. at NihS het1ihs WHICH was ad-
 Journed to the polls for settlement. The councilmen who fathered the high budget have not been defeated for the council in the few cases where
 they have run. their political bend has not been questioned, the people have remained satisfied to compel the lower tax rate. whether it was right or wrong. The city meeting ac-
 complished this for the electorate. Where would it have been had it not been for the necessity of calling city meeting under our charter? Every city official favored the high tax, as far as was evident, and, had there boen no city meeting. the high tax would have been carried. even though there was vast majority in favor of the low tax. which was quite adequately proven at the polls.
 There Is much weight in the arr gument of those who wish to elim- mate the city meeting that there is no possibility of getting together a representation Of our I4.00O voters who will give the matter unbiased Judgment. Proper handling of such. a crowd is next to impossible. That is true, which was quite recently 1 proven. The city meeting is more nx Les obsolete. there is but one |

JACkIES WILL HAVE CHANCE TO PRACTICE
ShiplOad of Targets Is Sent to
 Guantanamo Naval Base

Norfolk. Va, March 9.-A ship load of targets. big, little and medium siz-
 ed and made to float or fly, has been
 forwarded to Guantanamo for de- struction by the Jackies of the Allan tic fleet during the Spring gun prac- tice. The supply ship Lebanon car ried 16,OO0 pieces of target material when she nosed out to sea, including the huge box-fioats on her decks at which the 14-inch triplets of dread naught main matteries will be turned loose.
 Fresh from joint maneuvers with the Pacific fleet in the Pacific, navy youngsters are expected by officers at the base here to show a high degree of skill with their long nosed shoot ing irons this year. They have added zest for their work in the play time they put in with Admiral Wilson cruising on the Pacific coast of South America. The officers mayhap, had to attend many formal banqdets and ceremonies of reception at ports vis- ited, but the blue jackets got a chance to prowl about ashore and load up with impressions of pictur- esque tropical cities new to them. They will have lot to tell the folks at home when the Pennsylvania points the way north for the fleet in April and Jack gets shore liberty in home ports.
 Every device for testing the skill of gunners is included in the target ship ment. There are medium sized af- fairs for the 5-inch crews to hammer at in beating off imaginary destroyer attacks; things like submarine peri scopes to practice shooting up tin fish on, and kite targets for the top side gunners to pepper with anti-air craft barrages. There were also SUD- plies for the mine planter force, with which to practice laying a few eggs from which great explosions and wrecked enemy craft hatch in war time; and dummy mines to be swept up by the "clean-up" fiotilla.
 The air force of the fleet is to CO., operate in the shooting tests, spotting tests. spotting the fall of projectiles and tipping" the big surface craft to the location of enemy" targets over the horizon. They will also do a lit- | tie bomb dropping on their own ac- count and a supply Of the latest type I of these disturbers of the peace went l down on the Lebanon for their use

can powers say in rega rds to elections goes. whoever the party sponsors is
 elected. The voters, seemingly, do not have the imagination to defeat the members of the Council who run, might run, contrary to their wishes. No republican gains the nom- ination unless he is fathered by the
 party. Obviously the method of de- { feating an attempt at the cramming through of untasteful legislation by refusing to elect the men who will
 put it through is impracticable. The only recourse we have left is direct
 reference to the people of matters
 under question-at the city meeting
 and thence to the polls via special
 election if necessary. The removal
 of the city meeting. without an ade-
 quate substitute therefor. means the
 removal of the big stick" from the
 people.
 There are several substitutes offered in the proposed charter amendments, there have been several feelers put through by the press in official state ments. We doubt if any of them give the power to the people that they now have. and, unless a substitute does give that power to them, unless there is some adequate check upon the governing body offered the people are exceedingly foolish to accept change in the charter. The city meet ing is obsolete, true, but the electo- rate should be given a voice that must be heard in city matters if it would not be bound by untoward acts. | Watch the Council, watch the Legisla- | ture when there is a hearing upon | your own privileges as voters-and | keep your power. It is yours, it | should be yours.
