TRUE ECONOMY

When the Administrator Of the Depart
ment Of Improvements says true economy
is progress and permanent improvement.
and asserts there is no economy il stand
ing still, he administers rebuke to the
Mayor that possibly was not intended.
The charter of the city requires that
monthly reports be made by Administra-
tors to the Mayor. Mr.. Cockrem, in max
ing his last monthly report, took occasion
to state some facts in relation to city af-
fairs that seem to have escaped the notice
of our usually sharp-sighted Mayor in
making up his last message. :. was the
duty Of the public press to properly notice
Mr.. Cockrem's communication; at least
that portion of it which retouches, with
the skill of true artist, the gloomy pic
ture drawn by the Mayor and placed upon
the broad shoulders Of Republican ad-
ministration. We owe an apology for not
having performed that duty before, and
will now proceed to do so because We be-
lieve the people are interested in having
the whole truth in regard to city affairs.
Mr.. Cockrem is glad to see that the
attention Of property owners and tax
payers has at last been turned to the in
terest of our city. This implies that the
great body Of property owners and tax
payers have been inattentive to the in
terest of the city, yet we feel confident
that the Administrator Of Improvements
did not mean to make any such sweeping
charge against our people, He, no doubt,
had reference to that class of property
owners and taxpayers who have erected
themselves into an association for tie pur-
pose Of controlling the affairs of this city.
Among them are many good men-possi-
bly, hundreds-but the association never
has been able to control the great
body Of property owners and taxpayers
in our city. Some of the members are
our largest property holders-the rich
men Of our city-who think they should
dictate, in the name of the taxpayers.
who shall be the Administrators Of the
city.
They probably think poor man, or
comparatively poor man, has no business
in the Council; that de more wealth a
man has the greater voice he should have
in the administration of government.
This would seem to be the idea of many
Of the gentlemen who have constituted

the current resources OF the city so long as
the expenses of other branches OF admins

on their present footing: vet the streets
must be repaired. or what becomes Of our
commerce-whence are we to derive our
revenues! Cnpaved or imperiectly paved
streets, where the traffic is heavy, are the
costliest membranes the city car have. A
hundred and twenty-fve thousand barrels
of shells ito say nothing about BALLAST have
been placed on the streets this year, and
yet the pressure for better paving has been
SO great as to be difficult of resistance.
While it IS very certain the debt Of the
city has been materially increased since
the installment Of the present govern
ment, it does not necessarily follow that
there has been either gross mismanage-
ment or corruption on the part Of those
administering the government. The city
limits are much larger now than they
were under the old charter, and the ex-
penses of the city government must con-
sequently be increased.
