AN ADMINISTRATION VIEW
Statement by Mayor DurIand Concern.
ina the Paving Question.

Mayor Durland made the following
public statement today touching the
paving situation as he views it:
To the Public: 1t seems to be nee
essary to use just a little printer s
ink to get the present city administra
tion properly before the people on this
much talked of paving proposition
Our predecessors worked the plan up
admirably, to paving the intersections
And they finally decided there were
but two plausible plans to raise the
necessary funds for that. The first
was, to submit the proposition of vot
ing bonds to the voters of the city
The second, to raise the amount by
subscription, either from the parties
owning the property in the paving dis
tricts on Norfolk avenue, or by the
ordinary subscriptions. This was
about the condition when the present
administration took charge of the
city's affairs in May, 1907. 1t had
already been discovered by the prior
council that they were debarred from
the first plan, by law; that is, our
population was not sufficient to sub
NIT it to the vote Of the people. And
We soon began the movement of ex
panding the city limits, which has been
carried along through its various
stages, until now, the plan is up be
fore the district court to hear the
grievances and give his decision in
the May term of court. And when
that decision is given it will be fol
our successors to determine on the
next step to be taken. And as for the
second plan; if there had been a sub
scription list of an adequate amount
to have paved the intersections pre-
sented, the council would have beer
glad to have voted twice, if it were
possible, to go ahead with the worl
months ago, for 1t would have saveC
the taxpayers just that amount o
money And certainly it could not b.
expected for the council to pass tn,
hat and raise the funds themselves
which would run into the thousand
of dollars. C. B. Durland.
Mayor.

If there is one quality more than an
other that indicates breeding, gentility
and refinement of character, it is re-
spect for those religious observances
or institutions which are held sacred
by humanity. Whether it be the in
cantation Of Hottentot or the sacra-
ment of a Christian does not affect the
principle of the thing; the true gentle
man, the true believer in Divinity
viii respect any expression of worship
that is sacred to its professor
The disgusting occurrence in the Sis
tine chapel last Easter Sunday is a
case in point. The act of the three
Austrians evidently people of rank
and education is an insult not only to
the Catholic faith but to the entire
Christian church. Happily such acts
defeat their own ends, and bring oppro-
brium only on the ignoble and boorish
minds who perpetrate them.
Whatever may be ones individual
attitude toward the Lords supper,
whether its celebration is looked upon
as symbol, a conservation, mystery
or a mere commemorative ceremony,
no one, whether a believer or an unbe-
lever, can regard it in any but re-
weren't spirit, if he be possessed of an
appreciation Of the higher things in life.
All creeds and dogmas aside, all mys-
terry eliminated, Christ must be accept
ed as the noblest, sweetest, most hero
ic embodiment of manhood that has
walked the clay of earth; whose life
and word have become the inspiration
of world and brought the light of a
new hope into the dark struggle of ex-
istence. On the critical night of His
tragic career he made poor request.
OF a simple symbolic ceremony he said,
This do in remembrance of Me.
Coming from one so infinitely superior
and yet so infinitely lonely, that request
has about it a pathos too deep for
tears.
1t is a cheap soul who would not re-
gard the wish of one who had done
much and much less unselfshly for
this unrequiting world it is a base
soul that would meet it with insult or
ridicuIe

Half a Loaf Better Than None.


Protesting that they We're starving,
yet demanding that they be given work
at their own terms, a body Of unem-
ployed men in Philadelphia recently re-
fused 81 a day for their services. The
permanent relief committee of that
city appropriated Sc, 600 to give munici-
pal work to the unemployed The idea
was to make the money go as far as
practical, and it was supposed that a
man who was on the verge Of starva-
ton would be willing to work for even
small compensation rather than accept
charity. One speaker who counse)ed
refusal Of the work and wages said:
They are trying to lower the standard
of American workingmen, and at least
we should ignore it. If we are going
to be driven to work for suck price,
will be taken by employers
