Caynor has up to this time made par
ticularly good Impression. lie has gone
at the city business In a businesslike
manner and appears TO be doing things.
OF course. six weeks is too short n time
for any Judgment to be formed as to the
ultimate result OF n four years term, but

stumbling block TO the last half dozen
city administrations and which has caused
more good old AngloSaXo cussing on
thing IN the New York City government.

Now Wants the Earth.
"A little more than ten years ago the
New Yorker, or Ia be moro exact the
Broadway bon viveur. thought that n
