LocaI and General Notes

The order of retrench has gone
forth all along the line of western
roads. Like all big corporations the
owners of the iron highways are dill
igently searching for means OF meet
ing the dull times with reduced ex-
penses. Whenever tits considered adj
visable by large manufacturing con-
Germs to cease operations the factor

it Is diferen- They cannot entirely
suspend operations. On the con-
trary it Is almost imperative with
them. whether times be good or bad.
to run daily average number Of
trains. and IN order to do this they
are compelled to carry on their pay
rolls a sufficient number OF men to
maintain track and rolling stock in
good repair and to keep the train
service up to high degree OF excel
lence. But when a dull season comes
upon them they begin cutting
down" wherever the management
deems it possible. The Rock Island
has already cut wherever it l. posi-
BILE. and the most economical basis
of operation has been adopted The
next step in ,conomizing viii almost
certainly be the cutting in two OF the
salaries OF al, officials This j. usual
~ the last place for the aN to strike.
but there seems no way OF avoiding
it, The c. Is. & Q. has issued an
order for general rctreuchment. and
it i being felt at all points on the
system. just at this time the chief
officers of the company are visiting
all division points and curtailing eN-
penScS by red ucing the force wher-
ever possible. and disseminating all
work except hat which i absolutely

THE COUNCIL STILL wRANGLING.

a Wide Difference of Opinion on the Dues
ton of Cutting Down Expenses.
AT last nights special meeting of the
city council all aldermen were present
except Wilt and Joscelyn. Many spec
tators were present and the heavy tax
payers were unusually predominant.
The mayor stated that a city treasurer
should he appointed pro tempore and
was requested to name me. lie named
John l.. Gelsthorpe, and, AS he expected,
the only Affirmative vote was cast by
the only member present that has not
constantly fought h~im-Roberts.
He was then asked to suggest another
name, but positively refused.
For poundmaster he nominated Henry
Olegard, Olegard to do the work for
one-half the fees collected.
Hanson asked if the former pound
master had been properly suspended,
and was told that the suspension WAS
not necessary as his term expired May /.
The appointment was then withdrawn.
The city attorney was instructed to
bring suit on the Thesis & Foster check
and to employ d Spokane attorney on Il
contract to be approved b, the council.
Hanson said that before the vote was
taken he would like to know if two were
a majority of two or of seven, and was
politely informed that two was a major
ity OF two.
h matter of securing the city's
money that is in the suspended banks
was preached, and the city attorney said
that the money must first be demanded
and, falling to get it. the t%reasurer's
bondsmen should be sued. 1t was the
sense of the council that the banks
would soon resume and they did not
want to embarrass the only bank now
not suspended in which money was de.
posted, and it was decided to not de-
mand the money until needed.
Hanson move that the mayor and
aldermen for a period of six months do.
nate their salaries to the city.
The MayOr-Count me out. ] decline
TO donate my salary. II the city engi.
necr Toes | will. 1 earn my salary.
The aldermen all voted ia the afirma-
tive.
Randall moved that the record of the
suspension of certain officers be en-
plunged and the officers reinstated.
There were no remarks and only Rob-
erts voted in the negative.
Mr.. White, being called p said the
force in his office was not large enough;
that when he took charge the records
for three years were in a store box; that
ex-Engineer Morley was not to blame.
for he was occupied constantly with field
work; that he could prove to any per-
sons satisfaction, if his Office were Wis
tied, that he vas neither lazy nor ex
travagant.
The city engineer was ordered to put
in crossings for from five TO ten days
each month and to employ married men
only, changing his force each month.
1t was ordered that when the license
of the p%roprietors Of the Half Way
house expired no saloon licenses should
be granted outside the fire limits, Han
