TO STOP INTEREST.
And Not to Be Spent on Park In
prOVementS.
That is What the City's Money From
Uncle Sam Must Be
Used For.

The morning organ Of the push and
old push Methodists now shouts itself
hoarse to have the city spend the money
received for the postoffice site on park
improvements. That's in line with the
old scheme that brought our city TO the
verge OF bankruptcy, but it is not be-
lieved by any sane person that such
action will be taken. In the past year
the financial tide has been turned in
our city affairs, and as result our debt
has commeL ced growing smaller instead
OF larger. In the face Of this good news
some would now return to the old meth
cd, bat il is TO be hoped that no such
counsel will prevail. Let that money
20 to pay floating warrants, and the
citys interest will be best served.
The present city ADMINISTRATION is
pledged TO reducing indebtedness, aud II
goes without saying that every man con-
nected with il will stand like a rock
against "blowine in" the first money in
sight.
Mayor Bishop and Treasurer Moir
have been seen today, and both these
officials say unqualifedly that Tn Z
money must be used 10 stop interest.
Recorder Judah has also been seen, and
that gentleman Is Of the same opinion.
adding that he feels that this admins
tration is morally pledged to bend every
energy To the absolute extinction OF all
floating debt. While this happy con-
summation may not be entirely within
the reach OF the city's officials, Il should
be, and IL, the goal for which they are
striving. II would be record TO which
our city could point with pride II at the
end OF this year that old stamp mot
paid for want OF funds" could be thrown
away by our city treasurer, and every
warrant thereafter issued be paid NJ
cash. This Is the ambition OF our city
officials, and every good citizen should
lend his assistance to that end.
The attempt to work up public ex'
pectations for park improvements which
the city is financially unable 10 make
should be discouraged. IL would not be
practicable TO improve the upper
part of Wilson avenue until the plans o
the government with regard 10 III
property are perfected ana carIleu out
When that park is improved 1t should
be done TO conform with the decorative
work 20 be done bY the government
and what that will be cannot be known
i0r several years, or until the building
ia finished. BY that time the state may
see its way clear 10 take on the city,
hands these two upper blocks which arr
20 badly needed asa part OF the stat
capitol grounds.
IL would be no unpleasant task for thu
present city officials to expend $lO,OO'
ON the proper improvement OF Wilson
avenue, and il would require all o
that TO do il right, but such an under
taking would not at the present time b'
justihable, and the citizens Of Salem
would not endorse such a movement.
Let the money 90 TO pay warrants anC
stop interest forthwith.
