MIR. F. J. PaiI, Mayor, Alexandra, Va.
Dear SRI am in receipt of yours OF
today and note the contents and request
asking explanation of numerous com
nlaints of hardness with which work is
being done and the general unsanltary
condition of the city As to the first,
1bis Office is not in receipt Of said COM
nIaints. The complaints that | receive
are as promptly attended to as our
limited force allows, and much more
would doubtless be accomplished II so
MANY cf them were not Of a nature
caused by the property owners against
the established laws of the city.
The condition of the city, in my OBJ
servation. i. not more unsanitary than
il is usually at this time of the year.
In fact | believe it il better. The con-
timed wet weather has caused rapid
growth OF weeds and grass, but these are
not uusanilary. You are yourself aware
of the trouble of getting good laborers,
or rather any laborers at all, and my
foremen have had instructions for some
aime to hire any men they could get, yet
we have been unable to at all to get the
forces we want.
We might probably get force OF
celOred labor and on instructions from
you / will endeavor to do so.
Regarding chain gang, recollect
vcu telling me several days ago, on the
corner of King and ST. Asaph streets,
that there were a large number OF prison
GERS in the Jail subject to the chain gang
On receipt OF your letter | called up
the TAILOR and he advised me that he had
six corporation prisoners that would do
for street work, but that only three OF
these could go to work before beng
properly clothed.
che hours they could leave and return
10 iail would be 1880 a. N. to ll:3O a. m,
and p. m. to 5 P. m.
~ If YOU think il economical ana proper
.to purchase balls and chains and pay
for the foreman and watching for so I'M
certain number Of men and the so un-
certain character of their labor will do
so on further instructions
You know that no one has the in
Ter, ,st of our town at heart more, nor Is
NOR anxious to make a good showing IN
every respect than am, consistent with
the nrn YER and economical expenditure
Of The money placed in my charge by
the City Co uncil, and there is no one
more open 10 suggestion to anything
better especially from yourself, and II
Won will advise me more particularly OF
the subject matters of the first paragraph
of your letter they will be attended to in
order as fast as our force will allow.

ceased found time to be good and kind
to his family; that he kissed his chill
dren every night; that he contributes
literally to the church and to worthy
charitable organizations. But the MIN
lister will probably neglect to say now
the deceased millionaire ground down
his employees, how he paid starvation
wages and got everything he could at
the market price or as much under 1t
as possible.
No SeIf-Saerifice
"You hear of very wealthy men all
the time who are giving to this ana 10
that institution great sums of money.
In return for it they get unlimited
praise for their benevolence and col
umns of gush about their broad minded
charities. Well, that is all very well
in it's way. OF course 1t does good,
great deal of good, but we should not
overlook the fact that the rich man
does not mind these contributions in
the least. They do not impair his for
tune. They do not cause him any per-
sonal discomfort or privation. The
very rich man cannot possibly spend
his fortune. Fifty or a hundred thou
sand dollars is nothing to him. He feels
the loss of it in no way.
''The income from moderate fortune
is all that any man can possibly use In
buying the comforts and luxuries of
life. The rest is just as much super
NJ would he
idea to put it to use in helping the
struggling and oppressed middle class
Its not the very poor in this country
who are the poorest by any means. The
former dollar-a-day laborer now gets
81 a day and was never so we'll off be-
fore. The unions protect his rate OF
wages and take care of him in times
of idleness. His class is, in the main,
contended one, and the conditions are
improving all the time. It's not the
laboring man, the union man, that is
discontented and discouraged, but the
non-union man.
Its the man with salary from
$4,000 to $4,000 year that has the hard
row to hoe. He has to live with pre-
tense of a higher civilization, and the
struggle to do so is indeed hard. His
constant effort to make $4,000 seem like
$40 900 is pathetic. That's the man I
would like to see get helped instead
of big institutions. The benefit would
be direct and practical.
No Tainted Money
"Do you deplore the use of tainted
money as it is called, by the church,"
"I don't believe in this howl about
tainted money at all. 1 have no pa
tience with it whatever. I am not ask
ing for money. 1 am not begging for
anything. But I do not believe In
tainted money. 1t is easy for man to
climb the social ladder and be recog-
nized in the highest walks of life SO
long as he has money with him. But
as soon as he loses his wealth his So
called friends lose his address. They
promptly forget that he had any
money, tainted or otherwise.
''I think that one can do just as much
good with tainted money as with any
other kind and perhaps the doing good
with it is the best way to remove the
taint."
