4 TINE TO UiLT.

4 few days ago attention Was directed IN
hcsc columns to the rather startling fact that
the appropriations presented in the Legislature
of this State during January amounted in the
aggrcga.. 20 about o14, 100000. Il was hoped
that our lawmakers when confronted with these
figures would feel the necessity OF going Slow

Of the men who appealed to magistrate to

their hostility u Mayor Gleason is on general
principles, a point IN their favor. But what
ever motives actua,cd them, there is no doubt
that their action was of value TO the com

contest was to be a prize-feht 10 finish, and
that its chief attraction was the prospect that
it would be desperately hard fought. The re
