ANOTHER VIEW.

In relation 10 the three last
items of the Order Of Work, pre-
pared fol- the recent regular meet.
ing of the City Council, and which
were not taken up on account OF
the abrupt termination of the meet
ing, councilman Sandoz says he re
CARDS these measures at this time
as purely political and factiolal
These features are the appoint
ment Of the police, the appoint
ment Of a member on the Water
and Light board, and the appoint.
ment of members of the Board Of
Health.
In the matter of the Water and Light
commissioner and the Police, both
should have been acted upon last be
! cenber, before he became a member
of the Council. All three departments
are operative at this time. have been,
and promise to continue so until sue
cessors are appointed.
He asserts his opposition to the OF
Grafton of the laws which require Il re
firing Council or board of directors to
make appointments, where Suc'i ap-
pointees would exercise the authority
OF their office beyond the term OF office
of the appointing power. The mad
visibility of putting into operation
such law has been repeatedly dem
onstrated in the recent history OF this
city-nOtably in the waterworks man
agement, school matters and board Of
health.
He declares that his judgment fav
ors the policy of allowing these three
departments to remain und1sturbed AS
they are for the short time interven-
ing between this and the coming cleo
ton, after which the successful faction
will be able to make appointments to
all these places of such men as will be
in harmony with the Central power
the City Council. In the mean time
these departments cannot suffer for
the reason that the present encumbents
are entitled to hold over till their sue
cessors are appointed and qualifiyed.
Mr.. Sandoz further states that he
had called upon the members of the
City Council and explained his views
to them fully; that his course at the
meeting was no surprise to them, nor
to the Mayor; that he had advised
them candidly that it must be this
course, or his resignation; and that he
felt that other questions Of public in
terest amply justified his course in
order that the public's business should
not be stagnated any further.
He further claims justification in his
course by the fact that another session
Of the Legislature will be convened be-
fore these questions can arise again,
and that an effort will be made to
have these laws remodeled, thereby
avoiding these troubles in the future.
For these reasons Mr.. Sandoz re-
garded the publication in our columns
Of last week as being of greater severi-
" than was warranted by all the facts
For these same reasons we are with
out hesitancy laying Mr.. Sandoz's
views before our readers.

please the palate of peasant and potentate alike but
it has higher, nobler mission than that Rub pinch

For dime package if you please

Now is your chance I've said before

Then he took from his pocket dollar bill,
which he wrapped around one of the packages of
the compound saying Il will put this in the tray
in plain sight of everybody The compound alone
is worth its weight in 1awless gems, remember; but
lucky person is going to get package of it. to-

for the small sum of one dime or ten cents Step up
now gents, and let's see if there's anybody here who
could recognize pay dirt if he it.
After he d talked for awhile longer without getting
anybody to buy package thought I'd see whether
there anything in the old saying about fool for
luck; so handed up dime and picked out package.
Nov, my friend" he said, " m going to ask you to
be kind enough to open package right here where
everybody see whether you got your moneys
worth not Don't be afraid. The compound alone
is worth many times what you paid for it
took off the wrapper, and hope may never
have relative to leave me anything if there wasn't
the dollar!
Don't go away" says he: I'm going to fix up
some more packages with prizes in them"
Then he doctored up three more with dollars in
them and one with fve-spot, and mixed them in
the pile the tray, kind of showing them into
in plain sight of everybody, but saying there
weren't any more of them to be opened when they
were bought because it was against his principles to
encourage gambling. The packages went lively
after that, and while he taking in the money he
bent and whispered to me to stay around, be
cause he wanted to when he got through.
