THE MAYORS LOVE FOR DEMOCRATS.
"Little joe" as he Is called. was supposed to
have been appointed as Workshop Inspector
because he was Communist, butthe LEADERS Of
thut party come forward and condemn him
and the result Is he must be accredited to the
Democratic party whether or no. Joe claims to
have invented the law requiring the inspection
Of workshops, and to have discovered those who
passed 1t, yet tho Communists are not satisfied,
and having made known their feelings Mr. Har-
riSun is inclined to do as they say. Yesterday be
sent several names to Commissioner DeWolf, at
tho instance Of the Communists, but none were
selected for some reason or another What the
Mayor expects to gNin from pandering to tho
Communists and sitting down upon his hungry
Democratic friends remains to be seen.
CHANGE Youn COLOR
Commissioner Waller thinks very.favorably Of
the proposition Of the Citizens Association to
widen the bridges, but says it can only be done
ton he thinks the red-lights on the bridges ut
night should be done away with, unless the red
Hight IS to be signal Of danger In the future The
omnibuses, ETC., are liable to deceive and come
far short Of their purpose, and to remedy tho
trouble he would have the Council pass IN ordi-
tircly, except as signnls Of danger. His ideas
carried out would change the lights on the streot-
the nse Of so e IN aucson e aa t
bridges and f1re-engiue5, but he has no selfish
end to subscrve in the matter. and throws out
the suggestion simply to provoke discussion
THE APPROPRIATION BILL.
4 delegation from the Board of Education
WAS to have called upon the Mayor yesterday
afternoon to discuss educational matters, and
would do with the appropriation bill. Hewuited
not not appear; 1t 2 is understood, however,
s'nse ana and T 3atssessa
that he has resolved upon another line Of policy
to save money, which is to call In certain class
Of employees and submit to them the plum propo-
sihon Of standing a reduction in sa1ury or step
ping down and out He may not carry out tie
Inter idea until after election, but that he has
determined upon some such move there is
scarcely doubt The reduction to be demanded
Is said to be about 10 per cent, and 1t is an
nounced that, IN an unguarded moment, he
caused word to be sent around to the bridge
tenders, which is the way his ''policy became
KNOWN.
STILL THEY CONE.
The City Engineer was yesterday in receipt of /!
another plan for purifying the lake water and |
carrying of the sewage. The writer maintained |
at some length TINT there was no necessity for |
charging the canal, and in lieu thereof sug- |
sested the placing Of ono more lucSs at the !
mouth of the river, with powerful pumps to /
swell the river from the lake and force it to |
empty into the canal. This, he contcnded, would |
10 away with the proposed pumping works at
he junction OF the canal and the river, and
force the sewage through the canal. He would /
lot haye the sewage, however, pass to the IL
1nois River but hts plan IS to I'll the canal with
peculiar kind Of fish, and plant its banks or
suge5 with peculiar ErAsses or vegetables to abb
0rb it, ull Of which he seriously deems a thor
,ugh solution Of the water-supply and sewage
problems.
