Patrons of Husbandry, by Mortimer

Experts i'm City Government.

The administration of great city
cannot be conducted eMAently and
at the same time be kept in touch
with public needs without combi-
nation of the expert and the repre-
sentative of outside opinion, AMI the
relation that ought to exist between
these two is plain. The current man
agement and the initiative in the
main ought to lie with the expert,
but he ought to work under the con-
slant oversight and control of non
professional men. Such a relation
has grown up spontaneously in our
great commercial and educational
bodies, in the president and direct
ors of a railroad or a bank, in the
president and trustees of university
or college, for example, and it could
be introduced into almost any form
of city government, for it is not in
consistent either with the plan of
boards of commissioners or with that
of a mayors cabinet. In order to
set up the proper relation between
the expert and the non-professional
representative of the public, it is not
necessary to prescribe their duties.
but to make the distinction between
them perfectly clear, AMI that distinc-
ton must be based upon the essential
difference in the functions to be per
formed The expert is expected TO
make his pubic work his career. f;e
should devote his WnGie time TO it.
receive a liberal salary and be pro-
tected from removal except for cause.
The non-professional is not to man
age his department, but to see that 1t
is properly managed. He ought not
to be expected to give a great deal of
time to it, ought to be paid nothing
or much lower salary than the ex-
pert, and ought to give an account
of hts stewardship by the coming up
for reappointment or election at fixed
tervals.-Presiden Lowell of Har-
ward.

Skunk Farm for Arkansas.

Arkansas is one of the most ver-
satile states in the United States for
industries in the propagation of diff
ferent species of animals, but the
climax is to be reached by a young
Illinoisan of enterprise, who wishes
to purchase a sufficient amount of
swampland in the State to start a
coon and skunk ranch. Commission
er of Lands Coffman has received a
letter from a small town in Illinois,
requesting information as to the
price of lands of this character
which would be suitable for the pur-
pose of raising coons and skunks.
Not being well posted upon swamp
lands, he being from the hills of

A Subtle Hint.

A representative in Congress who
is the father of several bright girls,
tells a story whereof one daughter is

the girls had men callers. One even
ing l had settled in an easy chair in
the reception room, when one of my

chap from our own state, called out:

The Senator's Shaft.

The late Senator ingalls, of Kansas
was noted for his ready retorts and
epigrams, which were not always de-
void of sting and smart to those
to whom they were addressed.
1t is related that once, when en-
gagged in a controversy with senator
from Delaware, he evaded the real
question by saying:
