The sward is green where lie In peaceful rest
The thousands who once bore our banner
high,
Nor flinched to hear the hoarse, discordant
cry
OF wars outriders while the direful quest
OF shot and shell for gallant hearts was pressed
To bitter vantage. Nor with selfish sigh
Did they repine who, fearing not to die,
Had yet to wait the moment Christ has blessed
Through feeble years. The welcome sudden fall
In fierce, impetuous conflict and the patient
pain
OF those who sprang obedient to her call
The majesty Of law to thus maintain
Columbia holds in pride perennial,
Remembering that no hero dies in vain.

BLOW TO SHEEHAN,

Not Enough Work Done on Sewers

LONG ISLAND CITY, April %
Mayor Sanford delivered a crushing
blow this morning to the abuses and
extravaganza which have been intro
duced into the public works now In op-
GRAFTON under the General Improvement
Commission. Contractor John G. Shee-
han. the Police Commissioner and Tam
many district leader of New York, has
a contract for si42,o 900 worth of the
work.
The Mayors attack upon Mr.. Sheehan
is in the form of a letter which he ad-
dressed to the General Improvement
Commission. and which reads as fol-
lows:
LONG ISLAND CITY, April 81, 1894.
To the General Improvement Commission, Long
Island CITY.
Gentlemen: I beg leave to call your attention
to the fact that at the present time YOU have
twenty-eisht employees on your payroll. twenty
one Of which are inspectors.
The quantity OF work now under way does not,
in my opinion. warrant the employment OF so
many inspectors. The work can be successfully
carried with less. The inspectors a%rpointed should
in all cases be workmen, skilled in the perform
ance OF the particular work which they are re-
CURED to Inspect, otherwise the people can have
no assurance that the work will be properly per-
formed.
l. therefore that the number Of
employees he decreased when possible without
interfering WIN tHe tuCVNSslul lTOETtSs OF tns
work now under way. and that no further appoint
ment he made. otherwise ! shall be constrained
to withhold my approval Of payroll warrants
that may be presented to me. Respectfully yours,
(Signed,) HORATlO 8. SANFORD
The improvement inspectors are paid
by the Commission to protect the city
from any defective work which the con-
tractor might foist upon the taxpayers.
Only two of them, Edward Mcdonald and
ex-Overseer of the Poor Flanagan, are
skilled laborers. The remaining nine
teen. being mainly recruited from the
ranks Of saloon-kcepers, b~artenders, ex-
policemen and race track touts. are not
much OF a check on Contractor Shee-
hans methods of building sewers.
The taxpayers allege that the appoint
ment of this class of inspectors might
have something to do with the fact
that Contractor Sheehan took the Har-
ris avenue sewer at a much lower figure
than that of my other bidder.

consists of William II. Williams. Public
