City Council exhibited spirit of petty
partisanship in its most Objectionable
phase, at Thursday nights meeting, in
clecting Mr. Il. t. Warner member of
the Board Of Port Wardens, in place Of
Mr.. A. G. McCausland. There was but
one pretext for this action ON the part
of the Republican members Of Council,
and that was the fact that Mr.. Warner
Is Republican, while Mr.. McCausland
is Democrat.
The port wardens are elected by City
Council, upon nominations made by the
Board of Trade, the latter body, when a
vacancy occurs, nominating two names
from which the Council must elect. Tho
Board Of Port Wardens consisted Of Job

from $4,000 to $4,000. 1t was found by

II has been the fashion for some
people to sncer at the conclusions OF
scholarly men on great economic
questions. They call the scholars
theorists and doctrinaires But after
all scholar who brings trained intellect
and impartial scientific spirit to the in
yestigation of such questions, is at least
as good a guide as the politician who is
ever angling for votes. 1t is signiii-
cant that the scholars Of this country
who have made themselves specialists
in the study Of economic questions are
pretty well agreed in opposition to the
protective tariff and the free coinage of
silver. Prof. J. q. Sahurman, president
of Cornell University, has recently
written a short but clear cut letter on
the money question. HIS position is
