This the Day Rumor Has Set For the
PRONUNCIATION Of the Call.
WASHINGTON. June 6.-From the
Posts ''Driftwood" column it has been
freely predicted that the president
would issue during the day his procla-
nation in calling together an extra ses-
sion. The dates set for the assembly in
the minds Of the prophets run all the
way from Jnly to Oct. /. By far the
larger part of those who discuss the
matter favor Sept. is. The reasons
given for SO early an issuance of the
call are many and sound. Or late the
financial question has taken position
of equal prominence with the tariff.
The entire nation is disturbed. There
are plenty OF Democrats who hold some
reform OF our money system to be OF
even more pressing Importance than
readjustment of the customs duties
President Cleveland is said to be one of
these. BY one wing of the Democracy
the repeal of the Sherman act and q
return to the gold standard is de-
manded. By another the Sherman law,
or something even more silverish, will
be backed.
The president has been painfully in
terested in the financial situation, and
some of the hardest work he has done
since entering the White House has
come from his endeavors to find a
solution of the problem.

Don't Seem to Know About It.

WASHINGTON. June 6.-Rumors of q
special cabinet meeting and of the an.
nounced intention of the president to
call congress in extra session before
September next have been most exten-
sively circulated. Numerous inquiries,
based upon special dispatches to this
effect, were made at the White House,
but without eliciting any confirmation
of the rumor. II any such intentions
as those attributed are entertained the
president and his chief advisors seem
not to be aware Of the fact.

Is it not about time for the school
board to call for bids for the new school
bonds, so that work of repair and addi-
ton may be carried forward in time for
the re-opening of the schools next fall?
In this connection it may be mentioned
that before building the high school care
should be taken to secure plans that
will assure the city the handsomest and
most convenient building that can be
had for the money that is to be invested.
A general invitation ought to be extend
ed to architects to compete with detail
and perspective plans, and an absolute
guarantee should be exacted that the
cost shall not exceed the estimates. The
present school buildings are severely
plain, and something a little more ornate
should be in order for the high school.

HI WEEKLY TRIBUNE.
FRIDAY. APRIL II. 1893.
MAYOR

The clash of battle is ended, the smoke
has cleared away, and we find that the
biggest prize of the contest has beer won
by the united aud victorious democracy.
After the LIST of May Mayor G~elsthorpe
will hold the reins in city affairs, and re-
form will be the order of the day. The
old regime has run its course and now,
under the inspiration of an awakened
public conscience, a new order of things
will be i%naugurated.
DR.. Gelsthorpe has proven himself to
be a good runner, and the public be-
lieves that he will win as a public Off
cial as distinctly as he hasiat the polls.
He is an enlightened man, with broad
ideas and experience, and one who will
not be hampered by narrow ideas or pre-
conceived opinions. He will ascertain
what the particular needs of the city
are. and will then try to fulfill them. He
will appoint only the best men to the
offices within his gift. because he under
stands that this is a subject in which
every taxpayer and citizen is interested,
and that it is the handspring on which
the city's welfare depends.
Our new wayor will have two advan-
tages over all his predecessors She will
receive "A salary OF $1,000 a year., and his
term will be for two years instead OF ONE
under the provisions of the new munich,
pal law. 1t is not unlikely, indeed it is
almost certain that the population OF
the city will bc nearly doubled by the
expiration of his term. His RESPONSE
bilities will, therefore, be increased from
the day he goes into office, He will be
required to reform each one of the adj
illustrative departments, but he will
have to enlarge and increase them to
keep pace with the city's growth.
We, therefore, congratulate Great
Fails on securing the services in the of
flee Of mayor Of 80 able a man as DR.
G~elsthorpc, and we believe that the
events of the next two years will prove
the wisdom Of this choice.
