Peoples party will embrace prohibition

Mayor Grant Is Right.

Mayor GRANTS letter to Speaker BUSH
opposing the various measures introduced
into the Legislature for the increase OF Of
fetal salaries and the multiplication Of Of
fees under the municipal Government is q
brave and wise utterance.
1t shows that the administrators Of the
Democratic Government Of this city do not
want to use their complete and indisputa.
Bile control to give greater recuniary re-
wards to Democratic of1lceholders. They
would use it rather for the economical
management OF the affairs OF the peo-
pie. to whom they must render an
account OF their stewardship. Mayor
GRANT therefore earnestly condemns
"any attempt to aggravate the bur-
dens Of taxation" for the benefit Of individ-
uals. though they be Of the Democratic
fold. The success OF Democratic govern
ment. as he discerns. lies in a wise economy.
whose rigid exercise will exhibit the SLAM
derers OF the Democracy before the whole
Union in their true colors OF malignity and
falsehoOd.
The salaries now paid are sufficient. II
those who receive them are disconnected
with their pay. they can step cut. and other
men equally competent for the duties will
he eager to enter into their places.
Mayor GRANT is also deserving OF high
praise for his vigilance in protecting the
public interests and guarding the public
purse by strenuously advocating the abo-
lition Of offlce-breedins commissions. con-
structed for objects already accomplished.
or for purposes which can be performed by
existing and permanent departments OF the
municipal Government.
The wealth with which he would endow
the Democracy is not material money taken
from the public treasury. but the respect
and confidence OF the people earned by its
efficient. but prudent and economical adj
ministraton.
He has struck the right note for the De-
mocracy OF New York and of the Union.
