much has been said, has been put into

We have said before and say now,
even III opposition to the learned %
council employed by the city, that the
city, through is council cannot fix The
lI;ces Of wages, any more than the
s:me power could fix the price Of -four
or beef cattle. The clause should be
rtciAded without doubt, but What we
want 20 sly is that the Telegram is

Chairman Of Committee
Dated July II, 1890.

In its issue of last Friday, the
Wave of West Superior devoted al
most a column Of its space to villifring
N ,yor Pdttison. It's hobby was that
the mayor had ordered Mr.. Anderson
under arrest for shooting q riotcr.
The editor of the Wave knows--as
well as he knows anything that his
statements are Zine upon line OF
falsel ood, and it Ill becomes him, I'M
der all the circumstances, to SO soon
ana under false pretcnses, smite the
hand which fed him so beautifully only
three months ago. Mayor Paitison
never ordered Mr.. Anderson under ar
rest, but en- the contrary did all lie
couid to save him, and did save him
from the violence of mob of infuri-
ated strikers. The editor Of the Wave
knew this when he published his very
unjust, untruthful and unkind article.
Bat the editor Of the Wave has been
ioosing ground with the West End
ne3rla ever since the exercise of his
political hop and peculiar tactics" of
last spring, and, as the people of the
West End were just then trying to get
the mayor down because he would not
endorse their Illegal schemes to secure
West End improvements at the public
expense, he thought this would be his
opportunity and best way to get back
into the good graces of the West End
people. But then it is nothing new
for the editor of the Wave to ego back
on his best friends. lie is built that

City Attorney WoolpeTt can crawl
through the smallest hole of any man in
town. He says lie did not instruct the
city council that the city could fix the
wages of labor at 500 per day. lie
simply told them Tie city could print
that clause in their contracts, and
then contractors could take contracts
under these provisions or let the work
alone, but if they DID take a contract
containing that stipulation they would
have - live up to it. Here is wisdom
which transcCnds even the gods Why
notinsert i'll the contracts $500 a day
then: If The city inserts 800 day
Ill lis contracts, and let's work only on
that basis, does not the city take upon
itself the unlawful duty Of establishing
wages: We advise Mr. Woolpert,
for the credit OF the city. to keep quiet
and not make q public show of him
self any more.
