o'clock last night, was heard for

WHOLESOME AMUSEMENT,
The Tremendous Show of Barnum &
Bailey, Which is Moral
and Mighty.

Decidedly the Barnum & Bailey
show is always American. 1t may
have many European novelties and
attractions, but it is essentially a
pure, unadulterated American in
stitution. Conducted upon strictly
honorable and legitimate. business
principles, honestly and truthfully
presented, and presented in all de-
partments by gentlemen of ability,
who have earned a reputation as
successful business men. The
highest salaries are paid because it
is to the advantage of the show to
employ gentlemen to represent
them, and they must have men of
probity, honesty and integrity,
and none others are desired in any
department. That the show is a
great national affair is without a
doubt. No event creates half as
much OF a sensation as the advent
of the greatest show on earth in a
town, for the people are aware that
nowhere else can they see so truly
grand and overwhelming an exibi-
bition or obtain half the fun and
amusement. The only wonder
about the wonderful affair is that
so much can be exhibited for so
small an admission price. Just
see: there is Johanna, the only
gorilla in captivity, famous all
over the world, big blue-nosed
mandrill, only one in the country,
tent for the exhibition of $50
head of horses called the horse fair,
the two menageries, in which also

SHORT STOPS.
What the People are Saying.

4
An anonymous scribler in the
Express, signing himself "Truth, y
corrects "Short Stops" figures as to
the total receipts the city collected
from March l, 1898, to September
80, 1895; it was just $4,000 more
than stated; that is $1,2S7 ,62S.2S.
OF this large sum, ""Truth" only
accounts for the amodnt paid out
to the recorders clerk.
"Short stops" has had nothing
to say about the auditors office
but it would seem that truth" is
Jealous because the auditors office
was not quoted instead Of the COL
lector's office.
Truth" says If tho taxpayers
will not read them (the statements
issued by the auditory "they can
blame no one but themselves" A
reward can safely be offered for a
single taxpayer that has read a
statement emenating from the
auditors office, and understood it.
These statements are unintel-
igible to the public. They can
understand that $l,237, 62S.2S has
been collected by the collector;
they can understand how the clerk
Of the recorders court gets his 500
a month, but they don't under.
stand how that accounts for $1,234,-
62S.2S balance taken in by the
collector.
"Truth" suggests that the city
council relieve the writer of "Short
Stops" from his "arduous co du-
ties" and turn over the office to the
city clerk for a slight in
crease Of salary, and that, in fact,
it is the duty of the assistant
clerk to do this work." Mind you,
this is "Truth."
Ii an East street dive were to
place the sign "Virtue" over the
door, it would be as significant as
"Truth," signed to a communica-
ton in the Express.
There is no doubt but the entire
labor of the judge, the clerk, and
the assistant attorney in the re.
corder's court, could be performed
by one man, but the city charter
has erected this expensive ma
chinery, and there does not seem
to be any way Of getting rid of it |
but there are numerous employ
ments, clerks, extra clerks, that
could be done away with. |
Perhaps the most ornamental
and least necessary is that |
Of assistant auditor. In conse-
quence Of the creation of this sup
urfuous office the auditor has lit
tie or nothing to do. II "truth"
has nothing else TO do he could |
awhile in the auditors
office.
He could find out just how much
the assistant auditor has drawn
that could have been saved to the
city.
The clerk of the recorders court
seems to be the only sinecure dis
covered in the city hall. What
pity they could not get rid OF him,
and then all would be lovely.
During the time the clerk OF the
recorder has been drawing $1,000
the mayor has been drawing
$4,000. No wonder the money
paid by the taxpayers runs through
the city treasury like water through
sieve.
1t is always uncomfortable whe n
people who write for the press
get personal; particular ly when
some anonymous writer thinks it
smart to use the name OF James p.
Newcomb to give point to his ir-
responsible statements.

A WASHINGTON letter under date of July 12 says that Gen. Harrison is not 8 candidate for the republican presidential nomination. Once more tbat positive statement is made by gentleman who presumably enjoys Gen. Harrlson's con- fidence. This time 1t IS Hon. John w.
 Foster, of Indiana, who WAS secretary of state during the closing months Of Gen. Harrison's administration. Mir. Foster clinches to his statement by saying that he believes the Indians delegation will go to the next republican national con- vention without a state candidate for the nomination, and not united on any candidate. He thinks the delegation will be divided between Allison, Me- Kinley and Reed, but he doesn't express any opinion as to what proportion each of those three gentlemen will control. Mr. Foster, who has been in China for several months, acting as adviser to the Chinese government iu its negotiations with Japan, WAS given cordial welcome back to his Washin gton home last week by gathering of personal friends, which included about all the prominent people now in town. The Chinese gov ernment was anxious to place MT. Eos ter upon its permanent pay roll, and made him a very fiatterIng offer, but he declined. being too good an American to permanently enter the service of any foreign government

 ostoa to repudiste the expenses ln- urred in the building of the Orc Blanco [ 1ad seem to be educating itself for pos tive action ID that direction. An effort to breed sentiment for the disincorpor- Ation of the town is also beIng made, Iut probably without avail, as ths good :ltizsus of the placs will certainly wake ID to the disadvantages of such move nen., winch would bs an indication of etrogresslon rather than of progression nd DO live town can afford either to re- 1udiats its just debts or play the crab Dy gong backwards.
