SHORT STOPS.
What the People are Saving.

What the People are Saying.
A regular FIVE dollar meeting of the city
council was held yesterday; it lasted less
than half an hour.
Taking eight hours as constituting a
labor day our aldermen value their servi-
ces at $40 per day.
1t would be reform to pay these city
legislators by the hour; one dollar per
hour would be big pay for these gentle
men to sit and smoke, crack jokes and
generally have good time.
Il
The slight halt called by Alderman
Hoefiing in the matter Of spending the
city money reckleSsly is greeted generally
by the people with approval.
Each meeting of the council is more of
a cOnvigial affair than a business meet
ing. An hours session is considered
long pull; and is usually followed by ad-
journment to some adjacent refreshment
stand.
The mayor came to the rescue in his
usual don't you-dare- oppose style.
The bill of Architect Giles, which the
mayor had incurred on his own RESPONSE
biity, for examining the high school
building, was questioned by Alderman
Hoetling on the ground that the city was
paying Architect Kramer TO do such
work.
''It would make little difference" said
the mayor, Express repOrt) what his
salary might be under circumstances like
these. He was sick ana there was an
urgent need for an examination and reaS-
Surance to the citizens who send their
children to the High school. Mr.. Giles
must be paid. If there is any question as
to whether or not Mr.. Kramer must lose
by it, that is a matter for later considera
ton"
Mr.. Kramer was sick says the mayor,
and under these circumstances, he. not
the mayor, should have furnished an
architect for the emergency.
But it seems that Kramer was not
called on at all by the mayor, Express
report. Then the mayor said he
thought it advisable and urgent to have
the building examined by a thoroughly
architect"
True, it made little difference what
Kramer'S salary amounted to, but it was
appropriate to raise the question, why
the city was PAYNE an architect and at
tn same time employing outside parties
to do his work.
Nobody will question the mayor about
the disposal Of this fund and such
a disposition of portion of it would oe
refreshing to the people.
Being a contingency met directly by
the mayor, if he feels that Kramer
should not lose the amount out of his
salary why not pay it out of the mayors
fund"
Mr.. Kramer, as far as the public
knows, is as thoroughly disinterested"
as Mr.. Giles, and he should be as COM
petent. Now if there was, and no doubt
there was, an urgency in having the
building inspected, and Kramer was not
well enough are diSinterested enough, the
mayor did right to have Mr.. Giles or any
other competent man do the work, and
Mr.. Giles should be paid.
Among the items that appear fixed and
standing in the quarterly statements as

A Chief Cause of Crime.

Often when / have been asked what are
the causes, or what is the particular cause
that sends most of our young men to prison,
| have OF late years invariably answered
The want of family discipline"
The indulgence of the father and mother,
who allow the child to grow up without any
discipline to form character, leads almost
inevitably to evil ways and consequently to
prison.
The child, even of tender years, who is in
dulged in its natural waywardness, and
who is allowed to say to its father or its
mother 81 will or al won't" is in fair
way to become an inmate of our penal in.
situations.
Parents are also responsible for the way.
wardness of their children which leads
them into crime, from practice of deceiv-
ing them.
The intelligent child when deceived by
its parent i'll small things, is likely to form
evil habits which in its future life will not
be easily eradicated.
This cannot be better illustrated than by
the growth of fruit and other trees If they
are allowed in the first years of their growth
to become crooked, distorted and out OF
shape, it is found nearly or quite impossible
in later years, to bring them into symmetry
and to make perfect trees of them.
So with the child. Its early training lasts
for lifetime, and unless there are elements
in its character, and will-power, to correct
It's evil bringing up, it naturally grows
worse and worse as it grows older.-ED
