The fact that Grant has given two
mortgages for $4,000 each to the Adams
Express Company AS security for loans
70 that amount, is a great puzzle to some
of cur contemporaries, but in our epin-
ion it indicates the possession of ster-
ling principle on the part OF the Presi
dent. He was doubtless temporarily
hard up" and, like any other business
man, sought relief in the easiest way.
But it must be very sad for the Galena
boys to know that their old friend was
short OF cash and too sensitive to inform
them of the fact. And where were Or
vile and Babcock, and Casey and Della
no and Chandler all this time?-TYreS.

fANT GIRL GETS HIS JUST DUES.
The readers of the Leader are proba-
bly, familiar with the case OF the man
Patrick Welsh, who was before the
authorities recently for trifiing with
the affections and robbing the pocket
OF girl named Mary ]. Smith. Miss
Smith, it will be remembered, was a
servant girl for family in this city.
Patrick Welsh became acquainted
with her, and soon won her affections,
and finally they were engaged to be
married. So well did Welsh play upon
the girls affections that after they were
engaged to be married he procured
from her every cent she ,had-some
elght hundred dollars-the result of
years of saving of hard earned wages,
under the pretence that he would in
vest it to her advantage. Instead of
doing so, however, he pocketed the
money, fled the country, and went to
ireland. Thele he married another
girl, and after remaining on the green
SEQ Tor year or so, returned to this
country several months ago. Miss Smith
NJ once had him arrested on charge of
obtaining money under false pretepses
and had him brought to this city and
tried in the criminal court. He was
convicted and one month ago TO-DAY
he was brought before Judge White
Tor sentence. A strong appeal was
made ia Welshs behalf by his attor.
neys, and Judge White then remarked
that he would suspend sentence for
thirty days in order to give Welsh a
chance to restore the money he had
taken from the poor servant girl, in
which case he would make sentence
as light as the law permitted; other.
wise he would deal with him as he de.
served. The thirty days were up this
morning and upon the opening of court
welsh was brought before Jud se White
Inquiry developed the fact that Welsh
had not only raised no money to re.
store what he took from the girl. but
actually had made no endeavors to raise
any. Judge White th N remarked thai
the prisoner was entitled to NO mercy

where, he forthwith ordered salute of
one hundred guns to be fred at the ex.

Of course the taxes on property on the west side
owned by people who live on the east side. De-
Quoting from the whole tax of the east side SlS,-
1915, three-tenths or S., 455.45 (Which would
give the east side the benefit of fraction) we
have as the whole contribution Of the east side TO-
wards city expenditures $l2, 729.40.
If now we were to consider the money contrib
uted by the east side as applied to their own local
expenses, the account would stand as follows:
In the year 1915 the east side expended (sce
report for highways Sc 46S02 snow bills 1908 so
new streets $4,000 or total on roads of 81
COL, 81.
In another item the whole city expended for
schools (see report PIP. l3) S29, 464.37 including
Sl500.24 received from the State OF this 81 700.-
So was expended on the east side. If from this
amount we deduct three -tenths of Sl50O.2f re-
ceived from the State we have balance of $500
So to be added to the highway expenses, making
in all 81 ,S0239
Again, the expenses on account of the poor for
the year were S5,65967, and of this amount, five
consider $1,000 to be incurred on account Of wards
5, G and (east side,) we have another aggregate
Of $l2, S02.39!
SO it appears that if the east sides taxes had
been applied to their own local expenses, their
highways, schools and poor would consume them
all, leaving the west side to take care of its own
Streets schools and poor. and then pay all the ex
penscs of printing $500, fire department S5,739.-
So, city officers Sf,205.00, police 50 ,0036i! Be-
sides this the west side bore all loss from discounts,
s. 506.S3, and from Attachments, 81 ,0jl.1i; and
finally the west side paid all the interest on the
city dcbt-a debt contracted as much for the ben
eft of the east as the west side-which amounted
for the year 1915 to SlS,30.lS. -
