the campaign fund collected from saloon

on by the syndicate committee to buy pa

receiving the paper at their homes every

a beehive of industry" Men are employ

the flimsiest pretenses. AS an instance Of
the manner in which money is expended in

team, four men and boss spent an hour
yesterday morning on a job of work that
one man could have easily accomplished.
The men were sent to Broadway street to
flush a sewer They had with them a small
piece of hose that one man could have
readily handled. The hose was attached to
a water plug ard the other end turned into
the mouth of the sewer. Then the water
was turned on and the five city employees
sat down on a curbstone and made them
selves comfortable while the flushing
process was going on. Citizens who hap
pened along about this time were much
diverted at the unusual spectacle. They
were at a loss at first to understand why
the men were there. but the situation
dawnsd on tfem This is in line with the
condition of affairs that prevail in other
departments. Not long ago one of the gar
bage inspectors confessed that four men
were put on work that one could accomplish
without overWorking himself.
