GOVERNMENT OF CITIES.

San Francisco is just now interested
in the question of giving its mayor
mere power, especially in the matter of
vetoes The Examiner says that the
bills pending in the legislature that
propose to restore the mayors veto
power are intended to correct an evil
that has been inflicted on San Fran
cisco by the courts that took it away.
If it remains in the power of the legis
lature to correct the mistake it should
be done, it declares, as it is the ex
perience of San Francisco, as of every
other great city, that the interests OF
the public are best served by giving
the mayor great powers in the way
of vetoing measures, as well as of ap-
pointing and removing officials. Cities
usually have good men for mayors.
Absolutely bad men are seldom found
in the mayors chair. Weak men are
sometimes elected, but a man who is
willing to defy public opinion and hon.
esty at the same time in position
where he alone must take the respon-
sibility is a rare phenomenon.
Unquestionably the trend of the best
thought on the subject of municipal
government is to endow the mayors of
cities with greater powers and to make

CUTTING DOWN SALARIES.

In many of the states the salaries
of public officials are being cut. 1t is
beginning to be realized that the pub
lie servants" are very much better
paid and generally have considerably
less to do than those who get their liv
ing far from the public crib.
Most of the salaries of public officials
everywhere were fixed in the days
when there was nothing but paper
currency and when it took very much
more TO buy the necessaries of life, as
well as its luxuries, than it does to-
day. While salaries of public officials
may not have been fixed in those days,
the salaries of those days have been
used as the basis for them. In those
old days it took two dollars of paper
money to buy a dollars worth Of any
thing measured in gold or silver. In
these days, since the characterization
of silver, the purchasing power of the
dollar has nearly doubled through the
appreciation of gold and the CORE
spending depreciation Of all kinds OF
products and manufactures.
During the past five or six years the
country has been passing through a
period Of great depression. 1t has been
necessary for everybody to economic
to the utmost extent, while few indeed
are the business concerns, whether pri-
vate or corporate, that have not been
compelled to cut, and that very mate
rally, their salary list. But this neces-
sity has not been felt by the federal or
state governments, or by the minor
municipal divisions of the states. One
consequence has been that the people
have been compelled to pay very heavy
taxes in the hardest times. Another
consequence has been that the office
holders have not felt the nip of bust
ness distress and decentralization. The
scaling down of the salaries of public
officials until they reach something
like the level of salaries paid by pri-
vate businesses for similar services
will meet with popular approval all
over the country.

THE TRANs-MIssIsSIPPI EXPO
TON.

This year Utah holds a semi-centen-
NAL celebration in honor of the set
Element of the state. This celebration
should be in every way worthy of
Utah and her people, but the fact that
we are to have such a celebration
should not cause the very important
fact to be forgotten that there is to
be a great Trars- Mississippi and In
ternational exposition held in Omaha
from June to November, 1898. At this
exposition Utah should be worthily
represented if the money for that pur-
pose is forthcoming. For this purpose
it will be necessary for the legislature
to make an appropriation; what
amount will be adequate to give the
etate such representation is a matter
for the legislature, in its wisdom, to
determine.
This exposition should, and will if
properly encouraged, invite the atten-
ton of the whole country to the pos
sibilities of the great trans Missouri
west, and when they are fully recog
nized it cannot but result in a great
growth for the west. Growth, growth
in population and in capital is what
we want in the new state of Utah. In
natural resources of all kinds this
state is the peer of any in the-U Union
But they must be made known, and
where is a better place or more OPP
perfume time to make them known
than at this Trans Mississippi EXPOSE
ton? Whenever the resources of a
state are exhibited within that state
or in close proximity to it, interest in
the state is much greater than when
they are are exhibited far away from
it. The very fact that this Omaha ex-
position is to be held west of the Mis-
souri, river makes it unique and gives
it an added interest. It will afford a
grand opportunity to make known the
resources of the state, an opportunity
that should be improved. 1t should
be remembered that Omaha was once
the gateway to Utah and the people
of the state have always cherished
kind memory of Omaha and her peo-
pie, dating back to the time when
many of them started from there in
the '40's. Let Utah do what she
can to make it's exposition a success,
and the greater its success, the greater
the benefits that will inure from it to
this state. It is a matter demanding
the attention of the legislature.

CHANDELIERS RESOLUTION.

Commenting on Senator Chambers
resolution declaring it to be the sense
of the senate that the United States
should not permanently acquiesce in
the gold standard, and that the efforts
of the government in all branches
should be steadily directed to secure
and maintain the use of silver as we'll
as gold as standard money, with the
free coinage of both, under a system
of bimetallism to be established
through international agreement" etc,
the St Louis Globe Democrat says:
During the canvass nobody thought
of the promise to endeavor to get in
ternational bimetallism, but as the
pledge was made it will be kept, though
there is not the faintest probability
that the effort will accomplish any
thing. The vital part of the money
plank, however-the vital part of the
platform-was that which declared that
the existing gold standard must be
preserved" Nobody forgot this stipu-
lation It was talked of more in the
canvass than all the other declarations
of the platform combined. Senator
Chandler disliked it during the cam
paign, and he does now, but this is be-
cause his natural place was with the
Bryan coalition, and not on the Nc
Kinley side. He is just the same sort
of a Republican as are Teller, Dubois
and Cannon, though, unhappily, as he
did not join the ''walk-out' either in
the senate CT the convention, the party
is in a certain degree responsible for
him. AS Chambers talk, so far as it
has any influence at all, tends to create
uneasiness among business men, and
delays trade Improvement, ne has made
himself al enemy of the Republican
party. The party should repudiate him
by voting down his propositions when
ever it can ger at them.
1t is doubtless true that during the
canvass nobody thought of the promise
international bimetallism,
for the fight was between the double
standard, with the free coinage of gold
and silver, and the single gold stand
ard Those who favored the single

them responsible. If weak, or bad or
Office of mayor the people have but
themselves to blame for such mayors.
In every city in the United States the
reputable and better class of citizens
are very largely in the majority. and
the absolute say of what shall be in
municipal matters lies with them. They
certainly can control at the primaries
if they choose as well as at the polls.
One very great cause why the peo-
pie do not have better municipal gov
eminent is the fact that they are more
or less party slaves, and too often will
vote for '-yaller dog when named
on their party ticket in preference TO
a white man" on the opposite ticket.
Municipal government must be sepa-
rated from national politics if the peo-
pie ever expect to have capable and
efficient management of city affairs.
Mayors should be for use and not for
ornament, and they should be given
specific duties to perform and power
to perform them. The idea that city's
affairs should be administered by
lot of boards and commissions to be
appointed by this or that body not
elected by the people to directly man
age their municipal affairs, is a wrong
one. When the people of city cease
to be fit to manage their own immedi-
ate public affairs, they cease to be fit
for self government in any respect.

ART AND OVERALLS.

Every little while the country is
treated to a lecture by some high au-
thority on art and culture on the ele-
walton of the working classes through
the study of art. The country is told
that the people should get culture"
But getting culture is a matter of
secondary Importance to getting bread;
yet when the bread is gotten, culture"
is not always to be had, even in the
great cities like New York, where
means for giving it exist in greater or
wears overalls is permitted to visit the
Metropolitan Museum of Art. So de-
clares General di Cesnola. He says:
During the seventeen years that 1
have been connected with the Metro
politan Museum of Art no man in over
alls has been admitted to view the
collection. We would just as soon
think of admitting a drunken man, or
man without a coat, or for that mat
ter a man without his trousers. One
case is as bad as another. People who
come here must be properly dressed.
We must draw the line somewhere,
and we draw it on overalls. A custo-
dian who allowed a workman in over
alls to penetrate beyond the main en-
trance would be discharged on the
spot
1t makes no difference that the over
ais are neat and clean, the man who
wears them may not be admitted. It
may be doubted whether any man was
ever excluded from the Louvre because
he wore overalls or a blue blouse.
They order this matter better in
France"

Can Such Things Really Be?

New York Post: A country minister
in a certain town took permanent
leave of his congregation in the follow
ing pathetic manner: Brothers and
sisters, 1 come to say goodby. 1 don't
think God loves this church, because
none of you ever die. 1 don't think you
love each other, because 1 never marry
any of you. 1 don't think you love me,
because you have not paid me my
salary. Your donations are moldy fruit
and wormy apples, and by their fruit
we shall know them Brothers, l am
going away to 1 better place. 1 have
been called to be a chaplain of
penitentiary. Where l go We cannot
go, but 1 go TO prepare a place for
you, and may the Lord have mercy on
your souls. Goodby.'

A robin sings on the leaf1ess spray,
Hey no, winter will goi
Sunlight shines on the desolate way,
And under my feet

OF the worlds heart that never is still,
Never is still
Whatever may stay.
Life out of death. as day out of night,
Hey no. winter will gol
In the dark hedge shall glimmer light
A delicate sheen
OF building green,
Then, silent, the dawn of summer breaks
AS the morning breaks,
Ger valley and height.
The tide GIBBS out, and the tide flows back
Hey no. winter will go!
Though heaven be screen'd by a stormy
rack,
It rains and the blue
Comes laughing through;
And, cloudlike, winter goes from the
earth.
Goes from the earth
That flowers in his track.
Sing. robin, sing on your leaf1ess spray,
Hey no, winter will go,
Sunlight and song shall shorten the way,
And under my feet
l feel the beat
Of the worlds heart that never is sun,
Never is still,

STORIES OF MEN.
A Story of John Millais.

London Chronicle: Sir John Millais'
bonhomie is the subject of a little anec-
dote one of our readers sent in last night:
Sir John was attending celebrated case
at Bow street, and was accommodated
with a seat in the press box. In front
of him sat youthful new addition to the
staff of a leading London illustrated.
Don't you think that would be an i'm
provement?' suggested the great artist,
mildly pointing out some technical point
in the sketch the youngster was engaged
on. The young fellow was highly indig-
nant at first, but eventually adopted the
alteration with such Improvement that
he turned around and inquired somewhat
patronizingly, Who may you be, sir. that
presume to correct my work?' For an
swer he received a card on which was
neatly inscribed, John Millias, r. A.
accompanied by the kindly remark, We
are never too old to learn; perhaps you
may be able to give me timely wrinkle
one of these fine days. That artist has
made considerable Roadway since in his
profession, but he was paralyzed at the
supreme moment
