PAY FOR ALDERMEN
Comptroller Rogers VIII Hold
Up Salaries by Legal
Action.

Before another municipal pay day comes
legal steps will be taken to prevent the
city council from passing pay roll doub-
ling the salary of the mayor and adding
SIS a month to the stipend of the city
aldermen.
The last legislature permitted this in
crease of salaries, beginning Jan. l. but
the city comptroller took the position
that the law was invalid because it was
special legislation and he refused to draw
checks for the Increased amount
BY some legislative legerdemain the
aldermen circumvented the comptroller
and the city treasurer paid them the
amounts named on the pay roll.
Now legal proceedings will be taken to
prevent a repetition of this feat
The city comptroller is counting man
damus proceedings and announces that
if the courts say he must. AS this is a
campaign year and thirteen aldermen will
be candidates for reelection there does
not seem to be disposition on the part
of any individual official to make HIM
self a martyr for the benefit of his fell
lows.
City Comptroller Rogers was recently
asked by an alderman, why he should put
himself up as judge and jury in this mat
ter. and try to decide legal question.
Mr.; Rogers reply was a squelcher:
For the same reason that Won alder
sumo to construe the law. requiring you
to turn over the city hall to the munici OIL
commission" 80
The council has accepted the law pro
viding for increase in salaries as legal.
but holds that the act turning the build
ing over to a commission is illegal, pos
sibly because of the amount of patronage
involved.

CaIderone Transferred Early in

At o'clock yesterday morning Sheriff
Dreger and Deputy Sheriff LANCER took
Calderone to Saltwater No one knew of
the prisoners departure until he had
gone.
The early start was made in order to
escape a troublesome scene with the
prisoners Sicilian friends. The suspicious
of the sheriff were aroused by the large
number of Italians in the court house
shortly after Calderone had been SEN
fenced Tuesday. Some Of them hung
around the building until 1t was dark
County Attorney Boardman said yester-
day that he. had heard indirectly that
threats had been made against him by
certain Italians, but said he did not put
much faith in the rumor. as none of Cal
derone's- friends had spoken to him per-
sonally about the matter.
However, the sheriff thought it best
not to take any chances. as ever since the
beginning of the case mention has been
made of the Malta, and officers believe
much of the mystery about the murder Is
still unSolVed -"
Prior to leaving the jafk Calderone pre-
sented his few belongings to the trustees
of the Jail, but had nothing to say.

From drowsy, far-off cline.

Like cuckoo clock repeating,

Will our lives when we have lived them
Seem like stories we have read?
Stories which our nurses told us
As we lay all snug in bed?
WIN they seem as vague as dreams are,
All the days we thought sublime?
Shall we hear the faint low whisper.
Once upon a Time?'
When the earth and day and sunlight,
Grayly fade away;
When the years that We have lived here
Seem like one brief day;
Shall we hear again at twilight
Echo OF our nurses rhyme,
Here you lived and loved and labored,"

PREDICTS WHEAT WILL
PASS DOLLAR MARK

Wheat will sell at 81 bushel or
more within the next week or two"
This is the prediction made yester-
day by NJ. Doran, ST. Paurs veteran
banker and grain broker.
For more than a month have been
advising the purchase of wheat" said
Mr.. Doran, and a week ago predicted
today's big advance | am still of the
opinion that it is good purchase and
that prices are bound to advance be-
yond the dollar mark. [ base my opin-
ions on the legitimate conditions and
not on market manipulation.
During my business career of thir-
ty-four years l have never before seer
the wheat market as strong as it is
at the present time. Wheat has sold
for 81 several times during the past
thirty years but it never had better
cause to advance than It has now.
Last seasons yield in the Northwest
was short, as was the crop in the VIM
ter wheat belt. We cannot expect
large crop of winter wheat this COM
ing season, for the reports from that
district are already gloomy The grain
has suffered from drought in some sec
lions and in others the severe cold has
done great injury. Within a week the
reports of poor crops from the winter
wheat region will be greatly augment
ed. All this news of unfavorable crops
VIII increase the present high price of
the grain.
so far the Eastern war news has
been no factor in prices. If war does
come, another big bull argument will
be enlisted to advance the price of
wheat. The Armour manipulation
amounts to little in the present bulge.
The Armour crowd is buying wheat
because the natural conditions make
the purchase of the grain attractive
and promise big profits at the present
price. No doubt there will be some
slight reactions before wheat touches
the dollar mark, but it will eventually
sell at that figure.
The discount that the July and Sep
TENDER options are selling at makes
these deferred options even a more at
tractiVe purchase than the May"
