Last weeks issue of the Democrat contained an article on the editorial page with the above heading, in which wae discussed the Abilene of Then, the Abilene of Now, and the Abilene of the Future.

Some policies of the present time were commented upon which had bearing upon the Abilene of the "They believe in publicity, and then vote to print the city legal So far, the prescribed dietz guaranteeing long life are onions and sour milk.

Now, of course, Future, The article was not intended to be in anyway antagonistic to Abilene, and it was not intended to antagonize any of the plans of any kind for the wellfare and progression of the city, A few hours following the mailing of the issue, the Abilene Commercial Club held a special meeting and a committee consisting of Sylvester to the Commercial Club, owing to a misunderstanding of circumstances and terms used in a report of a meet- ing of the Club, The following is the paragraph of the report of the Club "The following committee of three was appointed to draft a set of resolutions asking the council to vacate the street near Parker's factory: C. C. Wyandt, F.

B. Glimpse and M. Malott." The following paragraph is reproduced from the article and shows the error in construction put upon the meaning of the above paragraph. "The Commercial Club, even at its last meeting, sent a committee to the City Council to insist on forcing an unused street to be cleared, even at the cost of chasing the largest employing industry from the city." We have interviewed several of the business men and others upon the construction they would put upon the report of the action of the Club, and it was in every case the same as that which we embodied in the article. Instead of the Club meaning for the Parker Factories to vacate the street, it should have been construed as meaning the city te vacate, leaving Mr.

Parker in peaceable possession for factory purposes. We were not aware of the late activity of the Club in its effort to keep the Parker factories here and were in the rong only Insofar as we put a wrong construction upon the report of the Club. At the special meeting Friday the Club unanimously adopted the following resolution if he merely listened in his sleep, it would be entirely different.
