Mr.. ODpenheim.
Still the body was no nearer a solu-
ton OF the question than before. Ora
tory ran rampant in this vein for an
other half hour. in which McCatferty
suggested that it would be better to
pass resolution to cancel the policies
and let the city insure its own property,
ana Dir. Oppenhelm explained that his
arrangements were not with the board
OF underwriters, but with three of the
leading agents of the city representing
the strongest board companies. He
said he was willing to make an equal
distribution of the policies. hey were
to be the blanket style so that
each company had, say $1,000. on every
building i'll the city, thereby reducing
their respective liabilities to mini
mum. Finally MIR. CoSteilO's amend
ment carried, and Mr.. Oppenheim with
drew his amendment. Then the reso-
luton prevailed, Messrs. BanhoIzer.

SURPRISING the Press.

The arrest of two editors for printing
an extract from another paper question
ing the validity of the a.Iti-lOttery law
is certainly carrying things pretty high
in this land of free speech and liberal
government.
The Post has no objection to the
stamping out of the lottery companies,
but the line should be drawn. it thinks.
at that point where irresponsible untss.r
lings of the government attempt Il
stamp out the press.
On this line the Atlanta Constitution
says that this policy will not work. If
lotteries cannot be- destroyed without
also destroying the freedom of the
press. the people will be in favor of
letting the lotteries alone. We cannot
afford to yield our right to speak
and publish fair criticisms of public
measures. If we yield the right in one
instance we may expect to be forced to
keep silence whenever it suits the gov
eminent to demand it. Fortunately it
is no easy matter to bulldoze the news
papers of America. The menace of fine
and Imprisonment will intiInidate VERY
few. No matter what Federal officials
may hold, the newspaper men of the
country will not change their convic-
ton that an honest criticism or discus
sion OF the provisions contained lii the
anti-lottery law cannot with any show
of Justice be held to be violation of
that law. If they are mistaken in this
belief, then the law.wIll have to lie re-
pealed or modified. In this republic the
government cannot array itself against
the press and have the support of the
people,"
1t is the policy and practice of some
of the monarchies to inhibit criticism
by the press of the acts of government,
but until the enforcement, or the al
legged enforcement, of the anti-lotterv
law no one dreamed that such thing
would be attempted in the United
States.-Houston CTex) Post, Sept. Is.

A PERSONAL MATTER.
President Scheffer Scores Charge.
Made Against Him.

Made against Him.
An evening paper recently published
communication from former school
janitor that Sayagely attacked Albert
Schetfer, the president of the board of
inspectors. 1t was charged that he had
called young man who was relative to
his bank. and had engaged him as janitor
of the Tilden school; that he sent the
young man to the school with letter
dismiSsing the janitOr that had been
regularly employed, and that when he
found the pay was only $40 month he
instantly ordered that it be raised to $40.
At yesteSday'S session of the board
Mr. Scheffer called DR.. Bridgman to the
chair, and then took the floor OH queS-
ton of personal privilege. He reviewed
the communication written by the jan
itor, and denied that any portion of it
was true, He said he never wrote the
letter; never had anything whatever to
do about the young man; nothing TO
do about increasing his salary; and he
also denied that the man was relative.
If il were true, he said, he would have
been guilty of more than one crime. lie
would have taken the bread out of the
mouth of workingman, all d he would have
been guilty of taxing the school board $50
month.
Fortunately" said he, II have been able
to make a living in St Paul | have managed
to take care of myself and to provide EN-
ployment for some of my relatives and with
out setting them TO sweeping out school
rooms"
He then explained that the secretary of the
board had come to him one day at the bank,
and informed him that there were two
schools without janitors. There was some
trouble about the reduction OF salaries. The
secretary wanted to know what could be
done. Mr.. Seheffer told HIM TO go to the
committee on janitors, but the secretary said
he had been unable to find DR.. Stamm. The
ianitor of the bank was sent for. He thought
he knew of two old soldiers who were needy,
and who would make good janitors, and he
essayed 10 find them. meanwhile, DR.. Stamm
had found one janitor, and that ended il.
Mr.. Scheffer had had nothing to do with any
of the janitors.
DR.. Bridgman remarked that no one who
knows him would charge President Sche fer
with mean or selfish act or with damaging
any one. The explanation was unnecessary.
DR.. Smith added loosely that the presi-
dents remarks had been unnecessary. but he
hoped the committee on janitors would not
discriminate against Mr.. Schetfer's relations.
He then explained that a number of in.
stances had come to his attention where jan
itors who have assistants are willing and
able to perform all the duties without an as
sstant for much less money. Therefore he
moved to refer the matter TO the committee
on janitors with the request that the com
mittee confer with the janjtors. and report
their findings to the board.

Commissioner Powers Continues
His Labor Insurance Compare

Labor Commissioner Powers is an en-
thusiastic adherent of the theory that
the cigarmal1ers' union is the most eff

mutual protection and insurance.
Il think the GLOBES readers will be
interested in little comparative state

said yesterday, as he made critical
comparison of the figures he had col
lated with the Metropolitan, an official
publication of New York. "You no.
tice," herpursued, 1.-The average dues of
a member of the cigarmakerS' union
are 80 cents week. If, now. a man
at twentY-one years of age had Joined
the union and at the same time
had taken out policy in any one
of the insurance companies doing an
industrial business for $500, the pay
mentS weekly would have been the
same. Keeping up these equal pay
ments for fifteen years, and at the end
of that time, or later, dying, his heirs
would receive the same amount from
the cigarmakerS as from the insurance
company. In addition to being insured
for like death benefit, the man was
sure in his own union of s. week in
case of sickness, So week in case of a
strike. and So week when out of work.
