II RECOMMENDATIONS AS TO
CITY AUDITORS OFFICE.

Of the bond.
RECoMMENDA1IoNs As TO
CITY AUDITORS OFFICE.
We suggest and recommend that the
City Auditor mot only audit the bills as
now presented to his Office for payment,
but also the books and records of every
sP af nh96 IF the city in which the
sufficient provision be made by the proper
authority for this purpose.
RESPONSIBILITY OF HEADS
OF DEPARTMENTS.
We have examined at some length into
s Vogue Of p fhs sgpRs'
find them in many instances to be devoid of
me most ordinary principles Of economy.
Large Large quantities Of supplies Of various
being taken, but without even the formal
ity Of asking for price. In some depart
tnenss ns,nt certain houses are desigrated by
chiefs OF departments, to whom orders are
to be sent, while in other departments
Thousands Of dollars worth of open orders
are placed with small or comparatively
be fictitious and having no legal existence.
The heads Of departments may not be
benefited by. these methods. although It is
impossible for the jury to reconcile the
same with the demands Of ordinary busi-
ness care, and we are forced to conclude
that they are either willfully conniving, OF
are incompetent and unworthy to be
trusted with such interests.
The many assignation houses run under
the guiSe Of hotels whereby the innocent
are deluded and betrayed is a subject for
serious consideration. While the total
eradication OF places OF disrspute cannot
be hoped for, yet the practice of parading
under the sign Of an honest ayocation tor
the purpose Of deceiying should be stopped.
Inc law on this subject provides sufficient
penalties, but the requirements as to proof
are manifestly extremely hard to meet. We
recommend that all hotels be licensed by
municipal law in the same manner that
saloons are now licensed under the State
law, and that provision be made for the
refusal Of a license TO any place of bad
repute, or the revocation OF a license that
may have been previously granted We
regard this as the only practical way in
which the problem can be solved. We trust
the city officials win give this careful

The Eastern Telephone Co.

Maynard s. Bird, Esq. of Rockland,
manager of the Eastern Telephone Co.,
and Mr.. Marsh the engineer of the COM
pany, were In town Saturday, and appear
ed before the selectmen in support of a
petition for authority to establish lines
In town. A good number of business
men attended the hearing and freely en-
CURED of the gentlemen representing the
company in regard to what they purpos-
ed to do and what they could do In the
matter of affording facilities and in re-
gard to the rental of instruments. The
rates they propose are considerably low
er than those now paid in town.
The selectmen heard the parties and
took the matter under consideration.
We understand that no decision will be
rendered in the application of the Eastern
Company for authority to set poles and
string wires until the hearing asked for
by the Northeastern Telephone Co. is
given. This hearing was set down for
April 14th but by reason of defect in
the name Of the company In the former
notice published notice is given this week
for hearing to be held Friday, April IS,
Skowhegan is likely to have whatever
benefit accrues to competition in the
telephone business II these two compan-
les are given authority to erect poles,
and string wires In town and they sue
coed In securing plenty of patrons to
establish exchanges, here.

Death of Hiram Dulac.

The death Of Hiram Dulac, who was
we'll known to most Skowhegan people,
occurred Sunday evening, at his home on
the south side, aged about So years.
He was veteran of the civil war,
having served Ia Co. D, 1st Maine Heavy
Artillery from June, $685. until May,
1865, when he was mustered out because
OF disability from serious wound re-
ceived in action. His wound was from
a Minnie ball, through the right lung,
and he never fully recovered from its
effects. Indeed it Is supposed that his
death WAS fastened by it. He had been
in his usual health of late until within a
few days and was on the street Satur-
day but returned to the house, took his
bed and died quite suddenly, Sunday
evening.
Mr.. Dulac was a member of Russell
Post, g. A. r. and of Abraham Lincoln
Command of Union Veterans. He was
much devoted to these veteran orders
and very constant 10 his attendance upon
the meetings. He always attended the
exercises Memorial Day and was always
present at the obseq uies Of deceased COM
rades. He was a patriotic soldier, loyal
to his country and the flag upon all oc.
casions and will be greatly missed by
veterans.
Mr.. Dulac was happily married soon
after he returned from the war In 1868
to Miss Mary Trepagneau, who survives
him with one son, Joseph Dulac.
Funeral services were held In the
Catholic Church, conducted by Father
Lacroix, Wednesday morning, and COM
rades of the Grand Army and Union
Veterans attended in a body and occu.
pied seats assigned them in the center of
the auditorium. Burial was in the Cath
Ollie cemetery.

Awake. Why sleepest Thou?

The reason that more good ia not ne
complished in the world, is due to the
fact that the majority of people are
asleep or lazy. Every individual, every
town, every state and nation, should
grasp new ideas aud higher ideals of
life, not only In great things but ln
small. Our town is small, but let It be
progressive. The women of Skowhegan
earnestly beseech every man, woman
and child to cease from splitting on the
sidewalks or In any public place. Our
town Is beautiful and money Is expended
literally to keep 1t in good condition.
This that we ask does not take money,
only thought and care. When each one
of us come to regard the rights of the
public, we shall feel that we have no
right to spit upon the sidewalks or 10
any public place.
