THE HONOR OF PUBLIC SERVICE.

Mayor Mcclellan in his interesting testimony
regarding city affairs in general before the Cas-
sidy committee touched on that perennial topic,
the difficulty of getting first class men TO take
public Office He could not obtain, he sald'
100000 men for s. 500 year. Some time ago.
he continued a newspaper had suggested tnat
with such man as President Roosevelt for
MAYOR the city would get Elihu Roots and
William Howard Tafts' to help run its govern
ment. He continued:
The inference was that it ought to have been
easy to get men to give up the presidencles OF
railroads and great law practices 70 take oe-
partrnents in the city government. But there Is
this difference: When a man takes a govern
n1ant place there is q precedent which makes II
a place of honor, and men are Wiling 10 accept

This is only another way in which cities are

Quoted on a high plane considerable degree OF

There are no larger problems before humanity
to-day than those concerning the life of the race
in the great Industrial cities, and nowhere can
men of the best type give more valuable ser
vice than as the heads of the great city depart

the right spirit. We must change the precedent
70 which Mayor Mcclellan alluded so as to make
the service Of the city bring honor and public
gratitude. The way to do that is to appoint SO
