understanding of things that would pre-
vent departmental wars; and if the city
auditor will pardon frank speaking in
the matter, avoid the necessity of his
making himself ridiculous in his new
born zeal for municipal economy. In the
last case of veto the city auditor grave
ly informs the gentlemen of the Water
Department that he, the auditor, refuses
to approve bills for expenses incurred for
work ordered by the Water Department,
upon the ground of unnecessary expepdi
lures and excessive charges. We think
n moments thought about this matter will
convince even the city auditor that he has
assumed unwarranted censorship over the
Water Department. If his position be
good one, then the Water Department,
and all the other city departments, would
necessarily be compelled to secure tie
city auditors approval Of any enterprise
they might undertake, or Improvement
they might devise, before making con
tract or giving an order for any material,
or for the doing Of any work. The law
creating the city authorship contem-
plntes no such censorship. The depart
mrnts are authorized to buy material and
| mike contracts for work which the mem-
| beers thereof think necessary to buy, o.
| TO have done. The law does not requir"
/ the Water Department TO ask the city
auditor when it shall buy pipe, nor to asst
him how mucn may be paid for It, neither
does the law require the Water Depart
meut To ask the city auditor where y.
Offices shall be, nor yet how they shall
be- fitted mp; nor. yet again, now much
thu fitting up Of those Offices shall cost.
These are things clearly within the sole
authority of the Water Department. II
follows that in auditing the accounts

BENT ON PARTY wRECKING."

The Pennsylvania Wanamaker political
insurrection has developed into an ad-
mitted Democratic side-show, the insur-
gents agreeing to fuse with the Demo-
Gratis against whoever the Republicans Of
the State nominate for governor. A IA
sion organ says:
This is the magnanim0ns purpose that
inspired the Democratic and Republican,
fusion in behalf OF YerkcS and Coray
and nothing is likely to arise to divert
this purpose. The issue will he with the
Machine, no matter whom it may set
up for its fgurehead in the election for
governor.
Quoting the above the Philadelphia
Inquirer says:
The very plain announcement on the
part Of our morning contemporary makes
it perfectly evident that the fusion move
ment is intended solely to place Il com
binatiun Of Democrats and h0ting Rppnh
licans III power. both in State and Con
