should be met by the officials who
stand for the welfare of the city, under
good salaries, and disburse our heavy
| taxes-raised ostensibly for this pur-
pOSe-among others.
Is not the failure to do this placing
burdens too heavy to be borne" on
the shoulders of the few-ouToens e1o
numerous in fact, to be adequately
borne by this comparatively smali
number? Were not the representatives
| of the people elected as responsible
citizens for the discharge of these
duties. and not for the discussion or
partisan politics. the placing" OF
| friends. the acceptance of brides and
the like, to neglect of their pubic
duties?
The prediction pledges and the ac-
| tual ORDERS given later by our OF
ficials must have been held by them
| to be only idle words, and forgotten
| by the public, else why these many
organizations to perform the WORK ieIt
undone, to redeem the pledges left un :
| fulfilled, to prod the officials to their
duty? Meanwhile our merchants. man
ufacturers and all our business men
and citizens have been overwhelmed
| by appeals to supply work and FUNDS
| for large classes and TO bear the re-
suits Of official negligence in other
ways.
How long ago, for instance, were the
| following orders given: That the street
railroads should keep their tracks thor
oughly watered, and thus prevent the
whirlwind of germ-laden dust when
enters and follows each car; that the
streets should be raised to the leval or
their tracks, and the disgraceful and
often harmful jolting, still experienced
| in many localities, would have thus
been avoided; that the unsightly ana
unused derricks, which also lessen the
value of property in their own favorite
neighborhoods, and the special "class
privilege" of the street billboards
should "be taken down.? These, as
samples of many others and a constant
disregard of the peoples will, even
when expressed at the ballot box, make
one wonder why the legal recall is
not put to use.
Our Empty Lots
The Joy of daily drive through the
streets of our attractive home districts
and superb mountain outlooks has
been much marred for the tender
| hearted. through the early spring
months by the sight of the numerous
| lots en- route, covered with luxurious
crops of wild oats and alfilerea on
which browsed no happy horse or other
creature Many such have, no doubt,
been endangered whose owners would
have rejoiced in this chance for them,
and been themselves helped through a
| time of dire extremity.
