Mr.. wclSh's tirSde in the city council
against the proposition 10 establish a
permanent grade Tor the streets " Asto-
ria ought not to deter the council nom
attending 20 this most vital matter at
the earliest possible momcn Every in
tellisent person surely knows that no
prudent investor can be induced to either
put money himself into the class OF large
and substantial buildings that must soon
he erected in Astoria, or lend Il to others
for such purposes, until a permanent
street grade IS fixed by ordinance The
proper thing for property owners all over
the city 10 do is 10 urge the Importance
" this measure on the council, and TO
make preparations 10 elevate their build
ings in conformity to the new grade as
nearly simultaneously as practicable. In
the whole city should be taken into 0c-
count, and such q height established for
the streets along the water front as will
reduce the grade OF those leading up the
hluns back OF the city to the loves: pos
sihle minimum, IL should be borne in
mind that an elevation OF eight or ten
feet on the lower levels can he made
with very little more expense, excluding
the initial cost from consideration, than
a rise Of only two or three feet-the prin-
eipal item OF extra expense being the
added length OF the tmbering required.

The salaries enjoyed by important tunc-
tionaries are worth considering. The
president OF the United States is the only
official in the world who lives in COM
parative poverty with a ~pittance Of ifty
thousand a year. Well, We set a good
example. The queen OF England alb
serbs about two millions q year, The
president OF the French republic gets
good wages in the shape OF a quarter OF
a million, payable in instalments month
". Italy must have a king, though he
comes high. and costs the taxpayers two
and a half millions annually, but the
German emperor need not eonine him
self to black bread and limburger, for
he has a SNUG four millions per annum
to draw on. The Man Of Russia, how
ever. like Abou Ben Adhem. leads all
the rest" for he has, in the way OF pin
money, a nice little income OF twelve
millions.

AT end appears to have come to that
modern version Of the golden fleece myth,
international bimetalllsm. A year ago
there was a curious revival Of an agita-
ton substantial but vociferous. 1t broke
out with suspicious chorus almost at the
same time in Belgium, France, Germany
and England. Nowhere was it support
ed by a high financial authority, nor by
any statesman holding responsible office.
The coincidence between the European
horus and the approach Of an American
presidential election was altogether OBJ

In its direction. 1t wal assumed that
Great Britain would not be likely to give
