| questioning the bills, the objection be-
| ing to the system. Registrar Hynes
replied that the registrars snould#be
pleased to adopt any improvements on
the system in use which the board of
| finance might suggest.
Mayor Kilduff again assured the reg
istrars that the aim of the board was
to systematic this matter and not to
| criticize the registrars. He called at
tention to the item of $1,000 a year
Tor a house to house canvass which
he claimed the law did not call for,
and remarked that if an elector hadn't
enough interest in public affairs to
come forward and register of his own
accord he didn't think the taxpayers
should be assessed to send someone
after him. He wanted to know if
there was as much work in this job
as the assistant clerk or a member of
the board of assessors has to perform.
Anyway. he didn't consider it bill
that the city should pay.
Mr. Hynes said that owing to the
new method of registration there is
much more work to be attended to in
the registrars Office than formerly. He
believed the duties that fall to those
who make a house to house canvass
greater than the assistant clerks or
an assessors. The deputies receive
40 cents an hour and the assistants
80 cents. The registrars believed a
competent man worth good wages and
bad one of no use whatever.
The board voted to pay each regis
trar 5000 on account and 1869 each for
deputies and assistants, also to recoma
mend to the aldermen that the salaries
of the registrars be fixed at $500 each
per year 1t was also voted to request
the registrars to present their claims
on regular payrolls.
The increases in salaries recommend
ed by the board of education for
teachers In the public schools were
