ADMINISTRATIONS UP A TREE.

a
The city administration is making
desperate efforts to escape the penalty
of its procrastination in the city bonds
affair. Much valuable time has been
frittered away since last November.
People protested and the Local press
urged and advised, but to no purpose.
For some inscrutable reason nothing
was done. The bonds were voted, and
there was a reasonable assurance that
they were TO be issued, and that inter
est would have have to be paid on
them.
Still time slipped by. The money
is now ready. 1t will be Paducah's
in a few days, unless by some official
hitch or jugglery it is kept back
When it comes the question thA off,
cials will have to answer is, What
shall we do with il" They know that
even if they could not have secured
the money before now, they could
have been ready TO use it now. But
they are not, and they have no reason
able excuse for it. They have wasted
time, and must take the consequences.
If the money cannot be used now, it
must be safely disposed of until it can
be. II during this period it draws
less interest than the city is paying,
which will mean at least loss Of sew
eral thousand dollars, the taxpayers
know who is to blame. II it remains
in the city treasury and draws nc in.
terest at all il will mean the loss OF
about g., uO0--all because the admins
tra,ion mas neglected its opportunities.
As to the question of loaning the
money, the law must be followed.
The administration is great sticklei
for claw" and has taken a number
of uestions into the courts TO lind out
the law-and always did il to its sor'
row. 1t must follow the law in this
case no matter what the consequences
II the taxpayers lose by it, it will moi
be on account of the law, but because
of the objectionable neglect and in
competency of the officials who have
been plodding supineiy along all tnes'
months despite urgent protests snd
warnings from those who had the
welfare of the city at heart.
Whatever the outcome, the official
not the law, are to blame. What the
law is remains to be seen. IL is safe
to predict that it will be followed out
to the letter, Whatever it is. The
bond money is not to be paid to the
mayor or the council, the aldermen
or the finance committee.
The law does not designate them
