MIR. KANE,s STATEMENT.

a LAST a statement has been issued by
Chairman Kane of the Finance Committee
OF Council regarding the Fordland deal. We have
been surprised that il did not come sooner Mr..
Kane manfully puts upon the shoulders OF the
Finance Committee the responsibility for the pur-
chase of the land an act that has caused much
criticism. Doubtless Mr. Kane has relieved the
minds of a number of other citizens more or less
concerned defenders and apologists for the
transaction who are only too glad to make Mr..
Kane and his committee the goat" if there is to be
any goat" Some of these defenders have been
proclaiming that while they favored this site for
"a superb athletic field, as they facetiously call il,
they.were not responsible for the high price paid.
1t would be interesting if Mr.. Kane should tell
whether he was argued with by the friends of the
deal and whether political pressure not brought
TO bear upon him to effect the purchase. We can
not but think that behind this forcing of the sale
OF the land we're some men anxious to dispose of
it for as high a figure as they could induce the
city to pay
The park commissioners are relieved of respon-
sibility for the purchase, but of course they are
not relieved of criticism the selection of the
ground. There are many who think that very
poor selection was made, but that of course is
question of opinion.
MIR Kane also relieves Council as a body from
responsibility, but the people will not do so. For
in matter so important as this Council should
not have turned over the entire subject to the
Finance Committee Mr. Kane expresses the opin-
ion that City Council as whole will approve the
transaction. Perhaps it will when its approval will
make no difference. But if so, such councilmanc
action will simply be another argument tending
10 show that the present method of city govern
ment is failure. What Mr. Kane says about the
future value of the land in this instance does not
affect the situation. 1t will be years before the pro-
erty is worth what the city paid for it and we do
not believe that the Finance Committee of Council
as individuals would have purchased Fordland
for figures anywhere near the price paid by the
city

BLUFFING 1T OUT.

He defenders Of the Fordland deal arc hard
driven for arguments TO bolster up their
cause. The Every Evening has not gone into rap
turcs over the purchase but emits now and then a
squeak in defense and both il and The Sunday
Star intimate that the opposition has been because
OF some personal enmity enviousness not at
all concerned with the public good These news
papers have for years based many of their criti-
cisms of men and things on grudges and males
90 that they cannot comprehend why comments
ahould not be governed by the same motives which
inmate them in so many instances
The Sunday Star seems to have been selected
TO hold the bag in publicly defending this trans
action and il has determined TO bluff il out
Well it is up against hard proposition that of
convincing the people in the first place that the
land is at all desirable and that of making the
people Relieve that the price psid for the property
was not excessive. 1t must think the people OF
this city very gube indeed f they swallow such
stuff as II has been putting OUT n defense Of this
lard dea;
The Star thinks that the people will be intelli-
gent enough TO perceive the difference between
the desire to promote the public good and desire
20 stir up strife for purpose that has no relation
to the public good.
The Star should continue along ITS present plan
of serving the public good and a few more per-
sons with land to unload may induce the city to
purchase their property at the Ford rate.
SO far as The Journal is concerned it certainly
has no Personal enfnify towards any one concerned
10 the transaction. Our neighror thinks that The
Journal is croaker" All W. can say is that If
here are, as rule, any greater croakers in vii
nington than the Sunday Star, they must be hole
mn forth in the mud holes of Fordland.

A LITTLE ACT OF KINDNESS.

OW often a kindly word or a thoughtful act
Alightens the hearts of the discouraged, makes
ife easier for them, lifts the cloud, shows the
silver lining and perhaps changes the course Of
the life OF a man. political club may have this
effect Some time ago prominent in the
Democratic League Of this city met another who
had been an active worker in the party, and who
liked politics, but he never seemed 10 have much
luck. The prominent leader we shall call John
and the other man Jim, merely for illustration
Jim was lamenting his -uck in politics and in
business and had the impression that his friends
had all left him. that everyone against him
and that there was no hope for him in this life
His day was done. Ii is a most unpleasant eaper
fence TO feel that you are down ant out ana that
your friends have deserted you. 1t is an exper
fence of sorrow that should notbe and need not be-
John asked about Jim and about his family and
himself and when Jim related his tale, John in the
goodness OF his heart thought how he could do
little to brighten the life of Jim. So he talked
with him and told him that he was mistaken ana
that his cloud had silver lining
John took Jim around to the club house OF ,he
Democratic League and the boys we're glad 20
sec him, and Jim gradually came TO believe that
things were notlsp bad as he had thought that
~ ms friends had not deserted him aud that alter
all life was worth living Jim hardly knew that
there was such club and he didn't believe he
would be welcome there at any rate. And then
John Informed Jim that they were to have recep

told 10 bring his wife aroRnd for she seemed to be

jim promised to come and nc did He found
that he and his wife we're both welcome, and their
friends had not all left them. And Jim and his
wife departed with their hearts cheered, having
had Splendid time"
There are many Johns in this world doing little
kindly acts and If there we're more of them life
would be still brighter. But if Jim fels better,
what do you suppose were the feelings Of John?
