Morse as q Musician.

In addition to being one of the
most efficient passenger agents in
the country, General Passenger
Agent Morse, Of the Southern Pa.
cific, Is an accomplished musician
and a composer OF no mean ability.
Some of his compositions have
been and now are being performed
at West End and the Morse EN-
voy" waltz Is prime favorite with
the patrons Of that popular resort.
When travelling around the coun-
try, Col. Morse always carries q
common five-cent tin whistle with
him, and the music that he evolves
out OF this plebeian instrument cap
tivates everybody within ear shot.
When the members of the "Joint,"
q famous combination of general
passenger agents, hold their an
nual banquet at Cincinnati, Col
onel Morse always presides at the
piano and rumor has it that Mr..
Morse "toots" this instrument in
manner that makes 1t do all things
except speak.-New Orleans States.

SHORT STOPS.
What the People are Saying.

What the People are Saying.
Mayor Elmendorf in his message
to the City Council calls particular
attention to the financial condition
OF the city; he says: "Our annual
budget is based on what should be
the income of the city provided all
taxes are collected, and we must
naturally fall short If the tax col.
lections are not properly enforced"
In other words, Mr.. Elmendorf
has said to the city council: Cen
tlemen, before the year is out we
will have no money to pay police
men, etc., with.
1t would be miraculous IL the
city could collect every dollar of
taxes due before the end of the fis-
cal year. II so per cent is collected,
1t will be doing we'll. Then we are
faced with at least a deficit of 20
per cent Of the budget.
The mayor does not suggest any
measure to guard against the pos
sible contingency of deficit in ev.
cry department of city govern
ment, including the public schools,
but hopes for the best-that the
city attorney will find the means
Of bringing the delinquent tax
payers up to the block, and en-
forcing his collections, even if it
takes an execution to do 80.
Mayor E]mendorf and his City
Council are too good business men
not to see that the situation needs
something else than hope to re-.
lieve the certainty of deficit.
The school teachers, the most lib
orally dealt with of all city en-
ployes, were mutinous when the
city failed to pay regularly; not
only this, but because the majority
Of our teachers belong to the femi-
nine gender, their cause excited
all the chivalry Of all the Don
Quixotes in the city. There was
even talk Of mobblng the mayor.
OF course the ladies don't want to
mob the mayor, but their gallant
admirers 30 expressed themselves.
Now 1t Is proposed to cut of the
halliday teachers, but will that
reach the difficulty Would it not
be better to begin on salaries, all
along the line, from the superin-
tendent down, 80 that what they
work for will be certain?
Now it will be q bold man who
will tackle the city's trouble in q
proper way. The mayor has laid
the matter fairly before the coun.
Gil. Will they do anything?
To issue more bonds to pay of
city Indebtedness, won't do,-no, it
will hardly do to propose it again.
Then what else can be done; to
depend upon the sheriff's ak to cut
of the heads Of delinquent tax
payers won't do; then what can be
done?
There is but one proper and SEN
sible thing to be done,-retrench
city expenditures down to that
point where they will come within
receipts. 1t will be unpopular, but
it will be honest.
