A Man of Straw.

00ur esteemed democratic contem-
gporary, hard pushed for any real
ground for criticizing the present city
government, gives this week full
s:ssfumn of its space to setting up a
unan of straw, and then seriously
proceeding to knock him down.
In large type and bold face figures
1t makes The assertion-which nobody
1s disposed to deny-that the city's
annual expenditures are more than
the appropriations. OF course they
are; they always have been, and
doubtless always will be. No city
government would dream of appro-
priating more than it is necessary to
: add to its annual income from other
sources.
During the first year of the present
administration the city's income from
@ other sources than that of taxation
was some 1000; during the second
year some 1000, and the current
year will doubtless show an amount
approximating these figures.
Exactly the same thing, the amounts
varying from year to year, has hap
pened before, and will continue to
happen. In making the annual ap-
preparations, this income is always,
d. and properly, taken into account.
TO parade the excess of expendi-
Etares over appropriations is, therefore,
the veriess balderdash, silly attempt
to hoodwink voters, a desperate
effort OF party without an tissue" to
create one. To exhibit this ordinary
and natural difference as evidence of
extravaganza is puerile enough to be
lpitiable.

IN THE MUNICIPAL COURT.

Monday afternoon hearing was held at
the municipal court room before Judge b.
E. Clark in which Mrs. Edith Sargent was
charged with cruel treatment of her six
year old daughter Myrtle; neglecting to
provide her with proper food, clothing
and schooling, and keeping her in place
injurious to health and morals. The ae-
tion was brought by Miss Juliette Nick
erson, agent for the society for the
prevention of cruelty TO children.
Miss Nickerson's testimony in substance
was that several months ago she heard
bad reports of Mrs. Sargent's mode of life,
and that one day last week she learned
that Mrs. Sargent and the child were liv-
ing on board small schooner. On Sstur-
day, learning that the vessel as in the
harbor, Miss Nickerson went to the wharf
and had talk with Mrs. Sargent who
expressed willingness to have the child
placed in some home.
Miss Nickerson testified that Mrs. Sar-
gent and the child slept in the cabin,
where the three men who composed the
crew OF the vessel also slept, and that
there was no partition which could afford
proper privacy for woman. Later, after
consulting counsel, Mrs. Sargent refused
to give up the child, and Sunday Miss
Nickerson, accompanied by Chief-of- Po-
lice Hamor, went off TO the vessel and
prevailed upon Mrs. Sargent to come
ashore, where she was placed under ar
rest. The child was taken in charge by
the Y. W. c. A, and spent Sunday night
at the association building on Cottage
street.
Several other witnesses testified to facts
in connection with the case, Rev. S. II.
Green, rector OF st. Saviour's church, of
which Mrs. Sargent and the child are
members, said that he had made ar
rangements with the House of the Good
Shepherd at Gardiner to have the child
placed there until she was eighteen years
old in case the court should place the
child in the custody of the complainant.
In her defence Mrs. Sargent testified
she had always provided the child with
proper food and clothing and had never
ill-treated her; that she and the child had

Probably no public money is less
grudgingly paid by taxpayers or
more carefully expended than that
used in the maintenance of our public
schools. Indeed, it is safe to say that
the regret is that more money is not
available for that purpose.
1t is difficult to understand, there
fore, the object, of our democratic
friends in calling public attention to
the fact that all the money available
for use in the public schools is spent.
They point with pride" TO few
years back, when they were in control
of affairs, that they did not do this,
o but withheld it - for what purpose
- does not appear.
And because the present admins
tration has used all that was available
in extending and improving the
school system, this action is cnarac
terized as reprehensible, and the
school board charged with 'slooting'.
And looting what? A paper bal
ance! Oh, the wretches! There are
many thousands of dollars of these
paper balances on the city's books;
scarcely fund that hasn't something
to its credit-on paper. They are be-
ing gradually reduced and the process
will continue, unless in an evil hour
the voters turn out an administra-
ton that has put to shame its imme-
date predecessors both in the matter
OF tax collecting, and in the wisdom
, and prudence of its expenditures.
The slogan of Ellsworsh's democracy
seems to be: Reduce the 'net cisy
debt" by piling up unsolicited taxes!
Pinch the public schools! Increase
