If the reporters come to our regular monthly meetings, well and good, but when they come to committee meetings and report things that stir up bitter feelings, and things that never took place, as they have done, it is time for the council to say to the press ‘The doors are closed against you.’ reporters should use some judgment and common sense in all things, and when things happen that it will not do the council or the town any good m know, they' should not record and common sense i when things happen do the council or th to know. they, 5h them." - “I will not," he said “attempt to answer the. letter in full, for it is in- sulting.

Mr. Deal is exercising his right to take the affidavit and V escape a tax on personalty. Suppose all other business men should take the stum- public spirited course. ”The town would 1080 over $50,000 of assess:â€" ment on a. score or so of them ; that is $1400 taxes." “”6 I will go further; Tho erupting the Real Leather Company is 'illqal.

Leather Company had escaped by making afidavit that it owed the bank more than the value of its‘ stock on hand. This had led Ald.1 O'Reilly to say that the law should; not, allow firms to make affidavits of that sort and declare themselves in- solvent. In reply, Mr. J. P. Don- ald, manager for the Beal Leather Company, wrote a sharp letter in the paper reprimanding the alderman.
