For a city to lay fine asphalt pavements and
then treat them or neglect them as it has been in
the habit OF treating or neglecting gravel roads
or cobble-stone pavements is just as absurd IA it
would be for n private person not To take proper
care OF fine foors.-Indianapolis News.
Of course il is. and that is one of the rea-
sons why we say the Sullivan administers
tion has no business sense. Everybody
who knows anything at all about asphalt
pavements knows they can be and ought to
be- kept clean almost entirely without
s%prinkling. They should be sorinkled rare
ly. If ever. The way the asphalt p%avements
in this city are treated Is stupid beyond
description. The constant sprinkling makes
them filthy and offensive, and keeps the
surface covered with q coating of dirt
which is ground into the pavement, to it's
great injury and rapid decay. But there
does not seem to be business sense enough
in the sullivan administration TO find this
out. lt is on administration whose chief
feature Is incom potency.

QUO. 900 less than it is. The only con-
ceivable object for this increased assess

pear smaller than it would have been

the second chapter of the Democratic
performance In the attempt TO conceal
the largely increased taxation. To at
tempt this fraud upon the Indianapolis

THERE can be no more important mat
ter to the people of Indianapolis than
what is called municipal politics. Three
fourths of the burden of taxation is laid
for city purposes and expended by city
officials. The fact that the amount of
money paid out as salaries has increased
30 per cent. in three years ought to
arouse taxpayers to take an active in
