Let me give the order, and promise not to

When the waiter approached our table

spring upon me in tine WHY of an order.
The waiter looked surprised and [ looked
amused when my wife said, trying to sum-
mon forth an excuse of dignity: Hot
chocolate and buttered toast for two
BY jove, it was great! The chocolate
was stearning not in a jolly little pot. and
when lifted the cover from the hot silver
PLATTER there was the most delicious, gold
EN- brown, striped toast that sent up a fra
GRANGE of butter and crispness enough to
warm the cookies of your heart.
My wife gave a contented little chuckle
as she poured out the chocolate, remark
ing at the same time: Wasn't it a happy
sible. But wouldn't some of the girls laugh
to see you treating me to such a supper as
this? Glad nobody is mere we know,

Just at that moment the door opened,

ours. 1 knew him to be possessed of a
long ancestry and g. short cash account.
However, in obedience to the laws of GUS

were ordered, with the aftermath of sal
ads, ices and cordial.
The Baltimore man had come over to

the proper thing to give her a fine SUPPER

NEXT CITY ADMINISTRATION.


OF one thing we feel perfectly salts
fed. which is that in every effort that
Mayor-elect Clark, when indicted into
office, shall make to reduce expenses
and to make economies where there
are now extravagances, he will have
the hearty cooperation of the Demo-
cratic city council. That council was
elected on a platform declaring for re-
form and economy in the adninistra-
ton of the affairs of the city. and it
will carry out the pledges of the plat
form to the letter Tt will be its en-
deavor TO give the city as honest and
economical an administration as the
Democratic county commissioners are
giving the county.
There must be retrenchment in the
city's expenditures, and the city en-
ployees should be required to render
as honest and efficient service as
though they were working for pri-
vate concern, and those who will not
do this should not be employed
The first great problem that Will
confront the incoming administration
VIII be 10 reduce the expenditures XII
til they shall come within the revenue.
OF necessity taxes will be somewhat
high because of the burden of debt
that now rests on the city, but they
should be reduced as much as possible.
1t should be an aim and ambition of
the new administration TO make a re-
duction of the city's debt; in this as
in all things it is the beginning that is
most difficult. but once begun and it
will not be so difficult to continue it.
Whenever this city begins to reduce
it's debt and cease to accumulate q
debt each year, at that moment it
makes the city a more inviting place
to live in and people viii more readily
come here to make their homes. i
city that is living within its income
and at the same time reducing its debt
is making a great reputation for itself
and establishing a credit such as moth
ing else will give it. Let people who
think of locating here see that the
people of Salt Lake City are able 10
take care of their own burdens, and
they Will have no hesitation to come in
and even help share them.
