SAVE IT FOX SIDEWALKS.

From the amount of pounding and crow
bar prying it takes to break up the con-
demned jasperite pavement on Douglas
avenue, it seems as if it should have stood
a more satisfactory practical test. There
are sections or areas of it that show no
breakage and but small perceptible wear,
which indicates that if properly made and
exactly laid it might have withStood the
test of use. AS it was a new patent, the
patentees could i'll afford to have 1t fail.
From letters Of inquiry received at this
Office, within year after it was first put
down. we are satisfied if it had been so
made and laid as to have shown no break,
by this time hundreds of miles of the
streets of cities east ard west would have
been paved with it. AS II is 1t is done for,
at least for some time to come. But the
unbroken slabs might be utilized for side
walks,

THE LIBRARIANS ouEsTIoN.

Everybody thought that the election of
Miss Martin as city librarian settled that
question. but it seems not from recent
of the West Side, was one of the original
candidates and received six votes on two
or three occasions when there were but
eleven members present. At the first
meeting of the board she received six of
the eleven votes cast, but the president OF
the board decided that no one
had majority. The friends OF
Miss Armantrout took Issue with
the presidents ruling aud sent to the
state SUPERINTENDENT Of public instruction
for his opinion in the matter. and received
a reply stating that if there were only
eleven members present at the meeting
six constituted majority. They have
also found precedent in the record OF the
school board which they claim Justify
them in making fight for Miss Amman
trout. The record of the first meeting OF
the former board says:
ST. \. Davis placed in nomination A.
II. Ward for president and T. r. Powell!
placed in nomination for president DIR. j.
d. Van Nuys. A vote was taken as fol-
lows: Dr. Van Nuys b; Nard >. Ut. AN
Nuys having received Il majority of the
number OF votes cast was duly declared
elected"
II can be seen that in the election of a
president only eleven members were pres
ent and six made a ma jority.
Then again on September ., 1872, an cleo
ton for superintendent of music took
place and Miss Clark having received SIX
votes against five for Miss Townsend, the
former was duly declared elected.
Miss Armantrout's cause has been taken
up by some of the citizens Of the West
Side who have employed a lawyer. At the
next meeting she will probably tender her
bond to the school board and claim the
position of librarian.
What the result will be is hard to tell.

The work on the paving of Douglas ave-
rue ended yesterday at O'Clock. on ac-
count of the eight-hour law. The first
day the men worked ten hours. y new
deal will go into effect today. The men
will be paid Is cents per hour, and they
can work ten hours or eight hours, &C
cording to their own desire. The idea OF
the contractors is to pay them $50 per
day of ten hours, but as the law makes
eight hours days work, the contractors
will pay them accordingly, at the same
time giving every man an opportunity to
make 81 30 a day, if he works for it.

The conditions which prevail in the cells at
the Police Court are pitisble and disgracefuL
Prisoners are packed into rooms badly ven
tiisted ard 80 small that even if light and air
were freely admitted it would be impossible to
keep them wholesome with the number of pris-
oners that they are made to hold. Human
beings who are brought there for punishment
are huddled together in an atmosphere Of dis
ease and moral contamination which could
scarcely fail to complete the degradation upon
which some Of them may be only entering.
Some Of the people brought to this place are
innocent. Yet they are punished in a most
huuihating manner. They have been forced
into vile companionship on a Wholesale scale,
aud share with reckless criminals depth Of
horror that many minds cannot pictdre. Such
n condition Of affairs can exist only in direct
violation Of the most rudimentary principles Of
justice, morality and sanitary law.
