"No one can read the statement OF

that the attorneys for the coal trust

code. matters be. taken up at such ex-
ira meetings Ia a commendable feature
Of 1t. In this way, the extra work OF
redistricting the city, fixing salaries OF
the various officials and making other
necessary changes will not in any way
conflict with the regular business Of
Council. There seemed to be no fric-
ton Monday night over the appoint,
ment of committees to take charge OF
special departments of the work, and
this augurs we'll for speedy ana suc-
cessful outcome of the undertaking.
Only one feeble attempt was made to
turn the matter into a partisan meas.
ure, but 1t was promptly turned down.
The work is to be done for the city, not
for the benefit of political party, and
If this is constantly kept in mind, the
public will undoubtedly be better salts
fed in the end and a great deal Of use
less friction will be avoided.
