The Salary Increase.

As he notified the council be would
do, Mayor Abbott, at the connci
meeting, Monday night, vetoed the
ordinance increasing the salaries OF
several city employees.
A motion was at once made to pass
the ordinance over the mayors head
The vote on this motion stood -four
for and two against.
1t is generally understood that
that defeats the measure as it is
supposed to take two thirds of the
councll to pass an ordinance over the
mayors head.
However, The city attorney was
asked to make a ruling on the matter
at the next meeting.
With his veto the mayor presented
the following reasons for the veto:
"Gentlemen Of the city council l
herewith return to you the salaries
ordinance No. Alb. passed by your
body on August 8 without my sigma
ture, and my reasons for refusing to
sign 1t are:
Il. 1t is barely three months since
these officers whose salaries were
increased were appointed and con-
firmed by the council. At the time
of the appointment not single
arpointee indicated a desire for a
raise in salary. They were anxious
for the Office at the salary then pie
yalling. There were sixty-two ap-
plicants for office, of whom twenty
seven were appointed, nearly all OF
whom were then incumbents,
- But one appointee has asked
me for raise, and IL but nominal, so
there is no general demand for rai'e
at this time on the part of the city's
employees.
80. But one or two more than one
half of the city's employees are raised,
and TIVE OF these raised are among
the best paid employees, an apparent
discrimination.
A. An employe who is not satisfied
with the wages paid him, or can get
better wages and les work for the
same wages, is at liberty to quit the
city's service at any time he chooses
So far but one pointee, fireman,
has engaged in other employment,
and his place was filled by former
fireman.
IS. There was and is still a
demand for rigid economy Ia the
administration Of city affairs. l.
compliance with this public senti-
ment, three salaried officers were
dismissed, without any detriDent to
the efficiency OF the service, II this
salary is now added to other employees
salaries, no gain occrues to our treas
ury, or to the betterment OF the
service.
IS. The many public improve
ments now being made In our city
call for very great expenditures Of
money, so our tax levies will heces-
sarily have to be increased to meet
these increased outlays, and whenever
or wherever the mayor and council
can ease the burdens OF taxation
without any detriment TO the eff
cheney of public business, it is their
bounden duty to do It.
81. 1 desire to pay tribute to the
honesty, Industry and efficiency OF
the workers in the various DEPART
ments of our city government. They
conscientiously try to Sfuifill every
duty imposed upon them by the
mayor, council and the law and
ordinances. They are all loyal to
their city and are all doing cheerfully
whatever duties devolve upon them
