HAVING published several com
municatiOns censuring the increase
of the Mayors salary, it may not
be amiss for us to, state that eur
columns are open to the advocates
OF the opposite view. We suppose
it Is well understood that we are
by no means TO be considered as
either approving or condemning
the utterances of correspondents
unless We say so. just Ii, re, how
ever, we will! say that We do not
consider that the salary of the
Mayor of Canton is too high, as at
present fixed. We believe in selcc-
ting the very best men for office,
and then paying them fair aud
salaries, in order that
their public duties may not be
sighted or made secondary to their
private affairs. Economy is Ger.
taiDly desirable in municipal as
we'll as other matters but we do |
lot believe the taxpayers of Can
on are losing any sleep o'nights on
recount of Mayor Thomas and Mar
hal Lusk's salaries.

advantage in pure white appare
