WEED OF 4 CLEAN TOWN.

It has been frequent comment IN
the papers that one OF the serious prop
osifions in New Orleans wien yellow
fever broke out there = few weeks ago,
was the uncieanIy and almost filthy
condition OF the city.
Along with other efforts put forth to
check and stop the scourge OF lever,
was the Inauguration Of movement
to cleanse tha city. The entire citizen
ship 0i the city devoted day to one
united effort in cleaning streets, alleys
lots and the like aud doubtless the
cleaning up Of the city will be great
aid il tbs checking OF the fever.
While yellow fever does not threaten
our towns and cities generally, claanii-
ness is highly important, aud the au-
tho,ities IN every town ought to see to
it that such matters are looked alter
With great care.

about citizen OF Harnett county:

pleased with tho whole affsir. They
saw one very amusing character in tbs

peared TO have come out OF swamp
He never took off his utterly shape

his cicthing being OF blue leans and his

1t is found that he made vow eight
years ago that he would never cut his
hair until! William, Jennings Bryan was
elected President. Some OF the wags
said they expected it to grow to his
1aet, ii he lived long enough. He pre-
scented a curious picture as he stood
il the midst OF the crowd of we'll
dressed country people, unwashed, as
unkcpt as any scale-crow, hands in

Under this rate of wages it will
be possible for a bricklayer to
make $11.2O a week. Eight hours
at 70 cents an hour is $500, and
in the busy season, almost with
out exception, they work twelve
hours q day. For every hour
overtime they get double pay, so
for the extra four hours they re-
ceive as much as for the previous
eight, or $11.20 for the day. The
men say that this really is not SO

ployed six months in the year.

Scramble For Work.

New York, March "A news
paper advertisement Offering a
days work to fifty snow shovellers
brought such q crowd of appli-
cants to a point IN Fiftieth street
today that the police reserves
were called out to quell an incip-
lent riot which attended the scram-
BILE for the work checks.
More than 300 men, who had
come in response to the ADVERTISE
ment were standing about the
place soon after daylight, when
the man with fifty checks, each Of
which would entitle the holder to
a days work, appeared Oh the
scene.
The sight of the checks was the
signal for a rush, in which every
n of the 800 joined. Men were
tossed right and left in the scram-
BILE to reach the holder of the
checks, and within a minute the
last one of the bits ofHpasteboard
had been given out.
This did not stop the trouble,
however, and when the police re-
serves, who had been summoned
at the first rush, appeared, more
than a score eff individual couples
were fighting hand to hand for
the right to shovel snow all day
for 50.

A Bad SIgn.

The demand that the salary of
the President be doubled is the
most indisputable evidence of the
tendency of ofice-holding in this
country. Less than rs years ago
the President received az his salary
1926, 900. A little later is raised
to $4,000, and the papers and
speakers in the entire country ex-
pressed surprise and many OF
them denominated it extrava
gance, and a waste of the peoples
money. Now it is asked that q
bill he passed in Congress giving
the Chief Executive of the nation
q cool $780, 900 for a salary. And
it is claimed that the bill Is being
pressed by it's promoter upon the
ground that there is a popular de-
mand for its immediate passage.
The truth is, if the present
President shares IN the raise 1t
must pass before March 4th, 1905,
and that explains the hurry. But
it's tendency of all officers now to
get their salaries put up. Almost
everybody, from a clerk to the
supreme court bench, is asking
that something be added to his
pay. And in most cases we are
sorry to see they get it.
There seems to be a sort of all
pull together, SO nobody fails to
get relief.
Now how is this to be explain
ed? The salaries Of other trades
and other professions IRE not being
advanced. The editor does not
get any more than he did twenty
years ago. The.railroad conduc-
tor, thelteacher and the book
keeper are not getting SO much
as they received twenty-five years
ago. The fact is the tendency is,
and has been, to cut salaries in
all private business, and only
salaries paid by the taxes of the
people have gradually, from year
to year, advanced.
Now there is only one of two
conclusions to reach and neither
of these bodies any good for the
country at large. Either Office
holding is coming to be more ex-
pensive to the occupants, or there
is a disposition to use the public
funds different from that in using
private funds.
Extravaganza in ofice-holding
should be carefully avoided, for it
leads to the very worst and most
deplorable results.-R a | Q i 9Th
Times.
