We learn there are several applicants fol

have to advocate any one we are going fol

What we are after is smashing into utter
humiliation, that ordinance creating the
Office. We don't think it right, or just, or
fair to the taxpayer to settle such burden on
him, and that is.why We buck. The Trustees
have made, for what reason, and by what in
ducement we do not know, an office, which
in the terms of the ordinance published in
the APPEAL) assigns as duties to a new officer
Just exactly what is being done and has been
done under the direction of the Marshal, by
an efficient officer of the police. If the Trus-
tees, or the applicants or anyone can inform
US why we should have new Office, to do this
already done and being done work, except for
the one object of paying out an additional
S120 per month we would like to know it.
We are thirsting for information. The read
ers of the APPEAL with tax receipts in their
pockets, and without the needful to pay their
taxes, are looking for light on this subject
compelled to pay 81, 440 per annum just

''No, he's the man they pay for bein' enter
tanned by US. Now we are willing to have
the entertainment given, but not to pay for
it while we are getting it well done without
any extra charge. We think we have heard
of the name of Butts used in connection with
this position. Have been told he does not
seek the position He says he wants it, if
there is to be such an Office, but don't see
why things cannot go on as they are. Herein
his head is level. A petition was in circulation
yesterday which received very large number
of signatures, praying the Trustees to rescind
