WE WANT WARDS.
It seems very strange that a place
the sire of Albany has never been di
vided into wards.
Why this is so we do not know but
never the less it is an undeniable fact
and when the stranger visits us and
notices with pride the sizs ot the city
it is net strange that nearly everyone
asks, How many Wards is the city di
vided into?
But the loyal Albanian on being
asked this question feels like the keeper
of a ferry boat, he simply has to ans-
war, Go across-and see.
Te division of the city into wards
would obviate many difficulties with
which the citizens are confronted now.
Take, for instance, the election of a
Mayor and conncilmen. Instead of
following the village style that now
obtains of the candidate for Mayor
naming hi3 ticket from the city at
large a conncll would be elected with
every ward represented and the people
would then have the naming of their
officers instead of one man.
It will he urged by those who op
pose this measure that the people
choose these representatives at the
ballot bos but it cannot be denied that
the representatives named each Tear
by the mayoralty candidate are not
chosen with a view of giving a section
of the city Individual representation
bat with a view to the success of such
candidates.
We do not believe that the success or
failure of any one candidate should be
governed by the*selection of alderman-
ic timber. The people from every
section of tho city want representa
tion but under the present system
some two or more alderman may be
thrown In such close proximity so far
as neighborhoods are concerned that
one portion may be altogether left ont.
Besides this the Mayor being chosen
from the city at large and the alder-
manic ticket from the different wards
each candidate wonld be placed upon
his special merits and the public
would not then be bonnd to snppoit
one entire ticket; simply to elect one

Hit Horae Ran Away.
Yesterday morning as Mr. G. Tom

city, was returning home with his
dairy wagon his horse became fright

jast as the officer was returning from
the union depot.
The man pointed ont was standing
□ear the Bridge House or Tilt’s Hall,
as it is commonly called, and officer
McLarty questioning the informant
very closely was assured by him that
the man pointed out was the right one.
The officer at once approached him
and notifying him that he wonld have
to go to j ill the man made no resis
tance whatever bat quietly submitted
to arrest.
The two started for the city - at once
and the nearer they approached Wash
ington street the larger the crowd
grew, the subject having been noised
abroad that a murderer was in town
and that a big reward had’ been cap-
tnred by the arresting officer.
On the way however the arrested
party ascertained who he was thongbt
to be and what he was arrested for.
At once be protested hlsinnocence and
offered to prove the same if the officer
would take him to the telegraph office
and wire to the Sheriff ot Washington
county in which county the crime was'
said to have been committed.
The party stated that his name was
Claude Holly and that lie has been a
resident of Albany lor eighteen
months, paying taxes here regularly.
As the officer entered the telegraph
office and wrote ont bis message the
crowd pressed in to such an extent
that it was almost impossible to enter
tho ream.
The message was sent and while the
officer was awaiting a reply a half
brother of the arrested man, W. P.
Holly by name, entered and promptly
identified him. Ohers did the same
and finally so numerous was the iden
tification by well-known citizens that
officer McLarty, falling to hear from
his telegram, released the prisoner
upon his own recognizance.
It was also stated by parties that the
man R II. Horton, for whom this man
was taken, bad been convicted of man-
-laughter last week in Washington Su
perior Court and that an 'account ol
the same appeared to Sunday's Con
stitution.
About 5 o’clock yesterday afternoon
officer McLarty received a telegram
from S. A. Wail, sheriff of Washing
ton count; saying that Ronse Horton
is safe in jail to that county.
Mr. Holly was very proud of his re
lease and seemed to glorify thereto as
he had all the while protested -his in*
oocenee. To a Hews ]and Adverti
ser reporter he said that Mathis has a
grudge against him and for tills rea
son had him arrested.
He says that he knew alt the while
that he eould clear himself of any
charge and says that his inconven
ience was occasioned by prejudice and
ill feeling. ,~

It is a fact that'tfce homestead law
has about gone into disuse. Tin*
right to waive the homestead _ has
knocked the stuffing out of it, and it is
now lean and land and Won't: stand up

to be a dead-letter, because people are
beginning to see that it puts them and
their property in a scape where they
can never get credit, consequently,
they prefer to encumber their propery
by a mortgage and waive all home
stead rights, than to be pnt rdowd on
the black list. What we want in this
country Is confidence between man and
man* Laws thar-will, protect * honest
