The Ball Opened--<s Liberty and |
Eeonomy'' Showing Its Head
a fatr specimen Of the "economy'' and !
slow taxes'' Of the new city administration !
is now displayed in the strenuous efforts being |
made to raise the salaries Of office holders. |
Under Republican administration 81 500 was
the salary paid the city Treasurer, aud no one |
ever received more until 3 Ae@s.fefdtic Coun-
Gil, to pare the way tor still greater increase |
for Democratic incumbent, voted the late |
Treasurer an additional sum Of $500 for clerk |
hire Their motive is now sufficiently shown
by the very modest claim of the present |
Treasurer, Mr.. Cutting, for q salary
Of %, 2,50o-$2o 600 for himself, and 1,500 for
clerk. He urges that heavy bonds are re-
qufred Of him, and refuses to serve at lower
Eala1y. The inconsistency Of such reason Is
too evident to every honest mind. The claim
will be allowed; the ball has commenced
rolling, and one by one will 1t pick up in its
motion every official from hugh to low within
It's reach, until with the rates OF taxes doubled
and an empty treasury at that, Chicago shall
have awakened to realizing sense Of the
smooth-tongued humbuggey to which she
has been 60 layishly treated.

most beautifully represented. We warned
the people Of this in time-of the humbug-

and of the direfal results which must follow.
But our warning was unheeded, and now hay

Heating Apparatus.
Upon several previous occasions we have
alluded to the success and progress Of the
well known firm Of r. T. Crane &; Bro, No.
102 West Lake street. In the matter Of small
iron and brass castings Of every description
required in machinery and in the heavier work
of manufacturing steam boilers aad flues,
gauges, steam power and hand pumps, they
have acquired reputation second to no firm
in the west. IT ia an ;nstance of the hns,nooa
character of th,s firm that the heavu oon+root
FIR conetrnct,nsr the heating annaratna at tho
Illinois State Penitentiary was awarded them,
and that they undertook the work, assuming
all risks. In every detail, they completed 1t
