who are given office as payment for work
done.
Competency and fitness does not enter
into theirseleCtions. This man and that
man are given positions because they have
pull enough with their friends to secure
the position they may make fight for.
BY all means abolish the commissions and
give us something better that will cost the
Taxpayers less than it now costs to run our
municipal affairs
Better also have two city solicitors at
fixed salaries. The employing of an extra
attorney for cases that come up year after
year against the city should be stopped.
The money that is required tu pay for
extra counsel for the city should be reme-
died and thus another saving secured for
our taxpayers.
Since the present City Solicitors term

one thousand dollars for extra attorneys

tor of the Second church at Harpoot
Armenia, has just returned to this city
and today gave the Associated Press cor
respondent in this city the contents of a
letter from Harpoot in relation to the
massacre ut Marsova on November Is,
which states that several hundred were
killed, the college plundered, ten houses
plundercd and a number of Armenian
stores burned. At the present time
there are no schools or churches in the
town, which confirms 1000 Armenian
families. Mr.. Santakian graduated
from a theological college in 1887 and
has passed the time since in Armenia.
He said: 81 don't think the present eff
fort will be success unless backed up
by the United States government. The
trouble has been brewing since 1882 and
it was only last week that the Turks
made an effort to burn the missionary
buildings at HarpoOt"

ing in the senate may therefore be eX-

that obtained prior to 1873. The halt so
