A Philadelphia man has invented a ma
chire that, with the help Of six hands, will
turn out as many barrels in day as sixty
men can make. The machine has been sue

These figures represent almost exactly
the decrease in the number Of saloons.
No candid mind can fail to be powerfully
impressed by this statement. 1t is safe
20 say that no other system for the re

such astonishing results ia our great
cities The press Of Philadelphia have
also stated that there has been a preai
decrease in the number OF disorderly
houses.

Mayor Harrington's claim for $780,. "a, al
legged to have been expended on the priv
ate detectives who recently unearthed a
number Of men selling intoxicants IL
legally. No one doubts the correctness Of
the claim, but Council is right in looking
at 1t very carefully because Of the manner
in which It is presented 1t is well known
that Mayor Harrington asked Council for
an appropriation for this purpose. Council
refused very properly on the ground that
there was no money to spare The mayor
then went into the scheme on his own
responsibility and accomplished good
work. Now, he comes back to Council
and seeks remuneration for what he has
spent in the undertaking. The proceed
ing smacks Of impudence. Ii an execu-
tive officer cannot get what he wants by
direct means, shall he be encouraged in
getting it by indirect methods? Shall
Council assist the mayor in having itself
whipped around the stump Ii is not
question Of the amount Of money brought
into the city treasury by the mayors
