J, 11. Napier, attorney, said h bellevaa th people ar working under auioka screen lusluad of sotting at th major point, whlib. la. the Plan aa propoaed takes away their democracy In city gov eminent, th only government which directly affecls their homes nnd hspplneaa. II said It seems ridiculous that there Is no locul man capable of fulfilling the wish ee of tb people In his city, ao that an oulalde man has to bu Im ported. Argument Healed II referrei to th clsus In the charter whlrh gives the uisyor, an officer elected, by tb roinmlsilonera from one of their own group, power to act aa boat of th city, lead calibrations, ueimuets and such, aa an Kiigllah ling, and If the Tutors di-aire aucb a parson, what they really need Is en r:nllb lord mayor.

H)a Judgment locking Napier smilingly enswered that he did not Intend to convey tb Idea they were dlsuonaal, but that they Just lacked Judgment, from bis viewpoint. lie went on to point out an other aerllly rlrloua point In tb charter which make tb pol io Judge appolntlT by tb com mission. H aald tbls really mean tb Judge I appointed by th manager, for It th managar Is strong enough to be ap pointed, be la strong enough to dominate th fir commlsaloners: then It th police Judge refutes to "piny ball'' be la fired. Mrs. Irnnle Talka ' airs. C. . Oeunla, present city tressurer, announced that she, Ilk many other, ba decided, after holding one public office, to let someone elae be the goat. and she will uot run again for tbe treasurer of lice' In tb proposed charter, Mrs. Dennis ssld, th treasurer Is sup poaed to uaslat Willi the work of the police Jtidgo'a office, Hlie esplnliied her preauut ilulles, tout all I gutting only 1 1 3D a month to huudl funds which lust yur amounted lo Hourly a f J.nliO.UUU turn over, and that ah gets very Utile money with which to hire nitre help, notwithstanding Hint lliu duties ot her office sru i trauiely heavy some ssusons. Ilnleutlne Not To t'un When railed upon to speak, U. tf. Italuutln, present police JudK uud secretary of th ntl chnrter league, staled he had not Intended to do any ot the talk ing, but sine iiitiintivr ot tb press were preaant he would lab lb opportunity to announce that be I not isndldute for any office of the city, and that his name appeara a secretary of the leagu hecsusa be Is sincere In his beliefs. lie said the only resson th league was formed Is becaua adrocalea of the charter had been glrlng It so much pub licity and e few men wished to enlighten tbe public ou the ne- gatlve arguiueiila. At a bit et two arguments of charter proponents, Mrs. L. II. Hague gaged why the city coun cil does not remedy th matter If It Is e fact there Is Incom petent help In Ibe city offices: that a us cbailer la not needed for this. There Is an amendment In ths present charter which provides for civil service In the pullc and tire department so a new enarter Is not needed (or tbls, th an- nouncud. Mrs. Hume Tolrsd tbe belief that If proponents of the charter bed known It out to get so much publicity, they would csll off the coming election, If they bed the power, W. H.
