have. He Is AT liberty to express his private
opinions, but not at liberty to play the part
of agitstor IN Identification with any party.
Mr.. Chamberlain takes note of some of the
salaries in Birmingham. The Town Clerk
has $1,000 year. Independent Of all civic
expenses. The City Surveyor has $1,000.
the City Treasurer has $3.50. the Chief of
Police has nearly 5000, the Medical Officer
of Health has $4,000, the Chief Engineer has
$4,000. and an assistant has S5250 The
Chief Engineer of the Water Department
has $1,000, and the salaries of various secre-
taries range from $3.50 downward to $3.50.
These payments are on very liberal scale,
quite liberal enough to tempt the mass of
voters into the business. As there is no
rotation from office, voters have very small
concern in the disposal of patronage.
II is pointed out by Mr.. Chamberlain that
some of the men employed in municipal
business in Birmingham had held their
Office for thirty years. This is in spite of
the fact that they are out of sympathy with
the politics of the dominant Radical party.
A municipal Office holder in England is not
expected to appear actively in politics. but
he may hold private opinions just as he
pleases, and not be the worse therefor All
such officials are understood to give their
whole time 10 official service. Mr.. CHAM
berlain makes one significant remark viz !:
That ito an Englishman the idea that
paid municipal Office should be the sup
port OF successful politicians is utterly abb
horrent."
The municipal expenditure OF Birming-
ham. with considerably over 100000 popu-
lation, is estimated at S2.6l0.000. Boston.
with population about equal, has an ex-
penditure upon parallel lines amounting to
81, ,570.0 600. Making allowance for deduc-
tions. the total expenditure is six times more
than the expenditure by Birmingham. Mr..
Chamberlain does not think the example of
Boston isolated. lie turns to the United
States census and lays down this PROPOSE
tion, that we pay for less efficient service
in every large town nearly five times as
much as Is paid in the case of a we'll
arranged English municipality. Evidently
the English do not make errors in the mat
ter of giving high salaries and enlistng the
service of those who receive these salaries
But there is a great deal TO be thrashed out
on this question. and the masses who live
10 learn have much to ponder.
California Is really an ideal country, a
Utopia to all who settle within its bound
aries Fruit is perennial growth, and it
might be a perennial export but for the ex-
actions Of transportation on the only rail-
road the West has with tho East. In good

The Kelly-Crimmins morning organ at

THE CALL. headed Money for Mr..
Easton." by saying that the letter Of Mr..
Easton. asking for contributions Of money
from Republican Office holders, was written
before Mr.. Easton was nominated for
Mayor. The letter may have been written
before Mr. Easton was nominated by the
kelly-Crimmins convention, hut not before
he was slated for nomination by the Third
street bosses. When boss owns a conven-
ton it is one of his prerogatyes to make
coming events cast their shadows before. :"

Twenty-fourth street TO the county line at
a cost to the city of S1,0000o0. Items OF
expenditures amounting to S242, geo were
given. There appears 10 be no doubt that
the owners Of lard along the county line
would be benefited by the job, but at the
expense of thousands of owners of inside
property. This is a kind of progress OF
which EastOn is the best known advocate.

HE CHANGED HIS MIND.

A few months since San Francisco
journal sent corps of reporters among the
divines, asking for their opinion as to the
condition of moral sentiment in the city.
One of them in reply parapbrased the
history OF snakes in Ireland: There are no
snakes in Ireland. The point of the re-
mark was not lost upon the reporter, but
was suppressed at the request of the emf
nent divine, who laughingly remarked that
San Francisco was nice place to live in il
the state Of moral sen timent was rather be-
low that of Boston. The same divine was
at the Non-Psrtisan meeting Saturday
night and saw enough there 20 cause a
change in his opni ion about the moral senti-
mept of this city.

WE NEVER MENTIoN IT.

II is noticed that not one of the speakers
at the Democratic meeting on Saturday had
a word to say about the Non-Partisans.
They trounced the Republicans, and were
judiciousIy severe on Crimmins and Kelly.
But the word Non-Partisan never escaped
their lips.
1t appears they were warned that men,
tion Of the new organization would be un-
safe. In the opinion OF experienced OBJ
servers. mention of the word Non-P ARTISAN
was likely to lead to such burst of al
plause from the Democratic audience that
had it been elected the Democratic gather
ing might have resolved itself into Non
Partisan ratification meeting. The cham
pions Of the Democracy were wise.

STREET EXTENSIONS.

Street extension schemes were handled
without gloves at the Non Partisan meeting
Saturday night. People who are not
directly interested have little idea Of the
extent of the jobs already under way.
Mr.. A. 7. Van Duzer said that in the Eev
enth Ward alone there are six extension
projects, as follows: Sixteenth street,
S353.000; Nineteenth and Twenty third
streets. 100000; Market street, S4O0, 600; ;

FACTS WORTH KNOWING.

TIE CALL has had San Francisco care
fully eauvsssed in order to learn what city
morning newspapers were taken by the
people, The result is that THE CALL cir
culetes fully one-fourth more copies than
any otner paper. THE CALL circulation
leads by fully one-quarter. The Chronicle
comes next after The CALL and leads the
EGaniner. The above facts show why THE
CALL is so strong in San Francisco.

A Curious Badge of Honor.
s on after the Canada, p.o;s.

Son after the Canadian Pacific Rail-
way had reduced the journey between
the far northwestern provinces of the
Dominion and the capital from half n
year or so to week, a Blackfoot Indian
Chief, who had been converted by mis-.
slonaries, taught to speak English and
civilized one or two degrees, was easily
induced to make tour of the older pro.
Vinces OF the country about the time the
annual missionary collection was being
taken up in the churches. 1t was Justly
calculated that his appearance at mis-.
sionary meetings in various churches of
tho denomination which secured him
would stimulate interest in the work.
The chief entered into the idea with
enthusiasm. He set out from his far-off
reservation in his native costume, but
before he had been in the towns many
days he acquired an ambition to wear
the white mans clothes. The people
who had him in charge coaxed him to
retain his Indian garb, fearing that the
picturesqueness of their change would
be destroyed 10y the change. But the
chief was stubborn and had his way. On
the night chosen for his appearance be-
fore an Ottawa audience he came on the
platform dressed in u Prince Albert coat.
broadcloth trousers, prunella gaiters,
lowered waistcoat, white shirt, gaudy
handkerchief around his neck and bat
tered brass warming pan in his hand,
which he carried with considerable
pomp.
The audience enjoyed him and his
kettle Immancaly
derstood why he carried it. Then it was
explained in an interval during which
the chief was got out Of the hall into a
dressing room. a Hudson Bay Com
pany agent who had got into a tight
place up in Rupert's Land, as the region
was called then, and had been rescued by
this chief looked about his post for some
thing with which to reward the Indian.
He had traded all his stuff for skins and
could find nothing left which he could
spare, except his brass warming pan
which had been sent out to him by an
aifectionate but deluded maiden auut in
England. Arguing that it would please
the heathen anyway, he polished it up
AMI presented it with great formality,
telling him that it was mark of high
distinction among white men to own such
IN article, and that few among them had
attained that honor.
The chief was delighted. He carried
it with him on all special occasions and

PreSilentin; ReariS.

It is an interesting fact that President
Van Buren was the only President prev
ious to Lincolnwho wore hair on his face,
and Andrew Johnson was the only Presi-
dent after Lincoln who wore smooth
face. Since the war boards have pre-
dominated. They adorned the faces of
Presidents Lincoln, Grant, Hayes, Gar
field and Harrison. The element OF
whiskcrs, pure and simple was repre-
sented by President Arthur, while
Grover Cleveland enjoys the distinction
Of being the only President who wore q
mustachc without beard or whiskers.
Upon taking summary the following
ratio appears: Fifteen Presidents wore
smooth faces, four wore beard and mus.
tache, two wore side whiskcrs one wore
beard and side growth and one wore mus
tache alone. Aside from the appearance
of their faces, with or without growth
of hair, the true embodiment of each
nature can readily be read from their
countenanccs. Traits of character can
readily be distinguished. Philadelphia
