Professional Envv


An Italian philosopher, Signor Fer.
riana, has amused himself by con.
structing scale of degrees for the
measurement of professional envy,
The highest point in this envy meas.

placed lowest on the scale. They reg.
lister only l.; advocates, priests and
military men are ranged at 2, and in
the ascending scale he gives us pro-
lessons of science and literature, 4:
Journalists, 5; authors, g; physicians,
y; actors and actresses. 10. The small
amount of envy among architects ia
held to be due to their precise. sc.
we're and rigid studies. The same
thing applies to advocates. Among
the clergy envy is found mostly IN
preachers. In the military career
envy is quiescent in time Of peace.

TWO OFFICES
Occupied by Seama n
Cause Trouble.

Although the right Of City Clerk T.
II. Seaman to also hold the Office OF
city health officer, has been challenged
by members of the city council, Mr..
Seaman still holds the Office and will
probably continue to do 80. AT the
meeting Of the council two weeks ago
the legality Of Mr.. seaman's double
tenure was referred to City Solicitor
Howells for Investigation.
The solicitor reported last night
that his opinion is that II the duties
of health officer does not interfere
with Mr.. Seaman's duties as clerk the
appointment as health officer by the
board of health is legal, the council
cannot oust him. The challenge was
made on the ground OF an existing
ordinance which says that the city
clerk shall devote his time exclusively
to performing the duties of clerk. The
city solicitor says the whole thing
hinges on what construction is given
to the word Exclusively"
A lively tilt took place between
President Johns and Clerk Seaman at
tho council meeting last night. Johns
challenged the clerks right to. hold
the health position on the ground that
no person cam hold two municipal Of
fees. The clerk claims he IS not hold
ing two municipal Offices, but that the
health office is not city Office but a
branch of the state board of health.
and in no way under the power of the
city or council. The president claimed
the Office was created by council and
was therefore a municipal ONCE. The
president insisted that the clerk un-
der the ordinance was not supposed
to engage in any other duties even IL
they did not interfere with the faith
full performance Of the duties OF clerr.
Mr.. Seaman was on his feet in q
moment and said ANY American cit
izen who would bind himself to such
condition is but little better than
an ass. Why coIldn't even pick my
apples or have time to kiss my wife
good bye. Whenever this council or
the people find they don't want me
for city clerk or whenever don't per.

If anyone had an idea that the
trusts do not intend to punish organ
lied labor and communities for action
antagonistic to the wishes of these
giant corporations, all that is neces-
sary would be to investigate the situ-
alton in Columbiana county, adjoining
Stark on the east. The United States
Steel corporation, some time ago, dis
mantled and abandoned the tin mill
at Irondale, which was practically the
sole support Of the town. Monday the
announcement was made that the Lis
bon tin mill which has been idle for
some time, will be permanently clos
ed and some eight hundred workmen
will be thrown out of employment.
In contrast with this the mill owned
by this corporation at Wellsville is
being doubled in capacity, workmen
are rushing the construction OF these
works rs fast as possible. 1t will be
remembered by those who watch sucn
matters, that during the last strike
the trust was compelled to abandon
efforts to operate the 1rondaie and
L.5bon plants with non-union men,
but the Wellsville plant was started
non-union and so conducted to the end
of tie contest. 1t does not require a
prophet to read between the lines TO
find what the trust proposes to 10
with localities that are favorable TO
unions as compared to the localities
that favor the United States Steel cor
pora1ion.
