For the council to act as if they were
indifferent over the matter as to when or
where he went or whether he ever came
back again, is treating the chief executive
very shabby.

But none of this, the mayor can simply
disappear and reappear when he feels
like it. The people are not so in different
as the city council, they would like t.
know where the mayor is and how he il
putting in the time they are paying hin
for.

This is no doubt Mayor Callaghan's last
term of office; in public opinion his throne
has tumbled about him: this is his last
chance to play city autocrat, but all the
same he deserves to be treated by the
council as If his presence and services
were valuable and necessary to the busi-
ness of the city; else why do we pay him
$1,000 salary.

This is certainly a very Indifferent wa,
OF treating the mayor Of our city: he i
our chief executive officer: the people
should know why he wants leave of alb
sence; whether it is private or public
business; when he expects to leave
where he is going to, so that any either
could reach him if he wanted to: and how
long he is to remain away from his post o
duty

But Alderman Lockwood, gives point to
the joke of the mayor asking such favor
of the council, by rising and smiling and
asking if five days was sufficient time. -
The mayor smiled back and suggests that
he did not care to say when he would go,
or how long he won Id stay, so the leave
was granted, leaving it to mis- own sweet
will.
