HOW is THIS?
Is the Mayor Bigger Man
Than the Council and EN-
powered to Set Aside the
Ordinances of that
Body.

From various sources the Com
mon Council was requested not to
repeal the ordinance prohibiting
brass bands from playing upon
the streets or Sunday and at the
meeting on Tuesday evening re-
fused. by decided vote. to pass
the repeating ordinance. and yet
we are told that Notwithstanding
this action by the Council the
Mayor said he guessed he could
instruct the police not to interfere
with an organization which wishes
to parade with band tomorrow
and let them go ahead with their
music. What right has he to
suspend or nullify law passed by
the Council? Is he not an execu-
tive officer and sworn to see the
laws made for the government f
the city are executed? If he has
the power to do away with one
ordinance has he not the same
power in regard to all laws
enacted to prevent the peace and
quiet Of the city? If he has this
power what need have we for
Council2 We might as well turn
the city over ty the Mayor to be
run according to his ideas of
propriety, enforcing only such
laws as he may think necessary
for the wel-being Of the city and
letting the rest be violated by
those who wi'h:to do so at will.
Now there are large number
Of the good citizens OF this place
who think the streets should quiet
on the Lords day, free from bray
ing OF horns, and other unusual
noises. At their request the or
dinance was originally passed out
OF respect for their wishes the
Council refused to repeal it. and
it is the law of the city. Neither
the Mayor or any other officer has
right to set it aside OF his own
motion. He is simply the servant
Of the people and when he under

takes to say the laws asked for by
the people shall not be enforced
he is usurping power which does
not belong to his office, and sit
ting himself above the power
which created him.

Nerve During Operations Is the Result OF
FOreknow ledge.
From Pearson's Weekly.


There Is really nothing extraordin-
ary about the calmness and nerve dis
played by the average practitioner dur
ing surgical operations. The nerve
OF the surgeon under such clrcun-
stances Is the most natural thing in the
world. Ii Is not display Of calmness
which has been put on for the occasion.
but simply the normal demeanOr OF a
practical. matter-of-fact man, who
knows what he has to do and how he
Is going to do It.
The trouble with many people who
marvel at what they call surgeons
courage is that they fall utterly TO com
prehend the conditions under which ne
performs his work. They imagine that
he is experimenting or that he doesn't
know his ground. or that he will cut
something that he ought not TO cut
Nothing can be further from the facts.
No movement In science or mechanics
is preceded by more accurate fore
knowledge OF its results than the aver
age operation in surgery. There Is no
such thing as guesswork about It, The
operator knows that he Is performing
an operation that is based upon an eX-
act science.
Why. then, should there be any need
in his work for extraordinary courage?
There are cases, OF course. so critical
or so unusual In character as 10 excite
even the camest and most self-con-
tained operator, and when these are un-
der trea tment the surgeons powers Of
self-contro' are frequently taxed TO
their utmost limit To the man. who.
In such cases can WELD a knift without
visible tremor when life Itself de-
pends upon the accuracy and dellcacy
of his touch. we must award the prize
due TO real heroes
But In the average case the surgeon
neither needs nor possesses more than
the courage of an intelligent, sincere
man. who knows his duty and has
learned how to perform 1t. His techni-
cal knowledge Of anatomy and his
methodical habits Of work accustom
MIN to conditions which alarm and ex-
cite non-professional minds. and he
goes about his task with certain Wig
orpus, quiet. assertive confidence in
the results of his movements which the
observer Is quite likely to mistake for
marvellous courage summoned Np for
that particular occasion.
