This Is no new cry. A provision for
q higher salary than $4,000 a year,
as at present might help. The Jour-
nal proposes $4,000. But, In these
days of excessive salaries to the right
men, even that might count for little.
1t Is said that John Hays Hammond,
the famous mining expert gets salary
Of 100000 year from the Guggen-

these days. Neither with the presiden-
