for more currency and greenbacks Of
small denominations is becoming more
apparent" said Mint Directors Roberts
today. The demand is principally for
bills OF a denomination smaller than $40
Fer this the issue OF gold certificates
under the law of 1882 is of little benefit
because the law does not permit an issue
OF less than $40 notes. The proposition
is to increase the printing OF s. notes

THE MAYOR ELECT.

Expires. Them

| Mr.. whitsley Has Decided View. and will
Express Them.
In conversation OF a more or less pri.
vate nature. Mayor-elect Whi,eley has
expressed himself concerning what may
BE- expected of bis administrator. Some
OF these views will be announced in his
message next Monday nigh and i, is no,
proper that they should be foreshadowed
in detail.
1t may be proper to say, however. that
the new mayor proposes to enforce the
laws and has no doubt of his power TO
enforce them. He believes the council
has full control OF the city's affairs and
that there are plenty Of means by which
the elective oficers-the police and
street officials. for 'ns,ance-can be COM
PEELED to obey the orders of the council
the same as tine appointees of the coun.
ell. In this position. he will ask the CO.
operation of the aldermen and the Cam.
era can safely assure him he will have
the support of the public.
The mayor-elec, Is against, the Sunday
saloon and proposes that the drug store
shall equally be compelled to observe
the law. He is opposed to open gam
bling but does not favor the employ.
ment OF the police IN detective work to
locate confirmed gamblers in their
haunts.
On one subJec, Mr.. WhiteIey speaks
with positiveness and that concerns the
sale of liquor to minors. Conviction on
this charge should and will lead to revo.
cation of license.
The mayor-elect has been looking
somewhat into the city's finances and
vas horr:hed at the discovery that no
sinking fund has been created to meet
the $4,000 issue of water bonds matur
ing in 1890. Though The revenues from
the water system were $4,000 IN 1895
and $4,000 the year before no, cent OF
that munificent sum was applied to paw
for the works but, barring current inter
est on the bonds. II all went into
THE GENERAL REVENUE
and was expended along with the other
monies coming into the ci,ys Golfers
This splendid tribute to the principle OF
municipal ownership of public utilities
fails Of realization by virtue OF criminal
neglect 10 provide for paymen, of the
iebt which made this generous and fast
increasing revenue possible
And now what? The mayor didn't
say it. but i, is as clear as day that the
next tax schedules the property owners
Of Boulder will have banded to them will
be something stupenduous. Those $50,
900 bonds must be paid and paid on ma
turity, The school district is calling for
more bonds and they should be provided
If the people can stand it. l, is to be
trusted that the school directors have, at
least. provided for paymen, Of such IS.
sues as have already been voted.
One thing is rendered clear and tha, is
that better management of the city
finances is required. No special act of
extravagance recalled, but where all
the money has gone to is mystery. No
dishonesty is imputed BY the Camera to
anyone, but holy smoke, What is there
to show for II all:

A thousand dreams to earth have come and gone,
A thousand forms, by fear fancy drawn,
Like shapes Of night have faded from the dawn.
A thousand creeds have held their sway on earth,
Unto thousand myths have given birth
That now are food for wonder, scorn, OF mirth
A thousand gods have reigned their little day
And crumbled. They were fashioned out OF clay;
Like outworn toys, they now are cast away.
A thousand castles OF the human mind
Are wrecks with which the coasts OF Time are
lined,
The rubbish OF the ages left behind.
A thousand systems Of n thousand schools
The theories OF Natures hidden rules
Now seem TO Us the dreams OF idle fools
A thousand lofty sentiments expressed,
To those who heard them seeming of the best
Are now forgotten, or 4 theme for Jest.
A thousand books on memory have laid claim.
A thousand authors through them, sought for
fame
To US there scarce remains single name.
The winnower of the ages threshes o'er
The harvest of generations lore;
One grain is gathered from the threshing floor.
The rest as empty chafT, aside is cast,
Chokcs all the gates and highways of the past.
Religions dreams, and empires all have gone.
