TILGHMAN's BUSINESS TALK

Mr. ". G. Tilghman. one of the lead
ing business men Of Palatka. spoke last
night at the Temple Theater to fair
sized audience on statewide prohtbi-
ton Hon W. K. Zewadski presided
and introduced the speaker in very
complimentary terms. Rev. w. H.
Coleman and Dr. w II. Dodge occupied
seats on the stage.
Mr. Tilghman began his talk by
saying up to within few years he had
never made speech but being deep
ly interested in the abolition OF the
saloon in Putnam county. he attended
a meeting which several preachers ad-
dressed and not liking the manner in
which they argued the cause he was so
full Of enthusiasm in the work that he
forgot his diffidence and distrust and
just sailed in and told what he thought
about the contest and met with such
fattering attention and friendly words
Of appeal that he has been in it ever
since and can't keep out Of it.
His talk was along purely business
lines and showed how the abolition Of
the saloon in Palatka had done Won
ders for his town. He said men in his
community who opposed him with all
their might. now are free to confess
harm. that money spent for whisky,
especially among the working classes,
I is placed in savings banks and used
to buy homes and give their families
better home comforts. The same men
say what is good for a town must be
good for a state and will vote for the
amendment.
| He then took up the banks and bank
accounts Of the two cities OF Gaines
vile and Oca1a. He said Oca1a was a
splendid city and had a class Of mer-
chants and business men to be proud
Of and every whit as able and enter
prising as those of Gainesville. Yet
| since the saloon was voted out OF
| Gainesville the two banks Of the place
had grown to five. while Ocala with
her saloons had two banks and the de.
posits in the banks Of Gainesville were
double those in Ocala.
Mr.. Tilghman does not claim to BE-
AZ orator. but is so pleasant and
earnest and so free from abuse that
his candid, kindly and earnest words
found a responsive throb in the breast.
Of his hearers and they pronounced
him a big success as speaker.

Frank Carpenter, rs years old, who
has driven stage in every state
and territory west of the Missouri
since his arrival in Old Hangtown
with an OK team in 1858, and pony
express rider for IS months, related
yesterday story OF Mark Twain's

of humor.
Carpenter said that Clemens had
just arrived in Virginia City and
had got work as reporter on the
Virginia Enterprise. He and Car
renter were standing on the street
talking, when they saw fight
about half block away. Guns went
into action and one man dropped
to the sidewalk. Mark said: IN

you $40 he's not dead" 1t turned
out that the man was dead.

The hostility was directed not SO

against the matter of the injustice
of the assessment roll, and how it
was juggled to Cypress the poor

owner in the immediate vicinity OF

was juggled by the board of works,
the mayor and the corporation

allowed the contractor $4,000 for
interest on invested capital and
$4,000 for profit; and last, but not

testing property owners by the
city council, which undertook by
the adoption of a subterfuge "emer-

Article No. 8,

Interest In the proposed charter
for Spokane is growing constantly.
Some frantic efforts are being
made to find .jokers" in the IN
strument, but without avail. It
would be unreasonable to expect
that the charter would please ev-
erybOay, and it certainly does not
please some of our people who are
Interested in continuing the pres
emit plan of mismanagement that
exists under the present charter.
One of the objections to the
charter seems to be that the parks
OF the city are not placed directly
under one of the commissioners. I
was present at the meeting of the
charter revision committee when
the park system was under discus
sion and ] am free to say that the
plan adopted was a good compro-
mise measure; better, in fact, than
might have been expected under
the circumstances. Some members
of the committee insisted on abol-
ishing the present park board and
placing the parks in charge of a
commission of public property and
parks, after the plan of the Des
Moines charter. Others insisted

A TYPICAL CITY HALL
PAYROLL STORY

This is typical city hall payroll
story. T. H. Young, a protege and
political supporter of Mayor Pratt,
was placed on the payroll of the
street department during the sum-
mer as paving inspector" at sal
airy of So per day. Paving inspect
ors are generolly under the super
vision of the city engineers office,
but Mr.. Young had to be given
some official title, so he was called
paving inspector, to make it sound
well. Sometimes the title is worth
as much to the man as the salary.
Brother Young logged along
during the good old summer time,
when paving matters were realty
active, at the rate of SO per, work
ing sometimes as many as or 10
hours per day, at the usual extra
allowance, until the month of Oc-
tober. But the money did not
come fast enough.
For October Brother Young's al
lowance by the street department
went down at the usual figure, So
per, amounting to SIS. Then fol-
lowed a time check made out by
Commissioner Armstrong and Com
missioner Argall for SAT more.
What is this for?" asked the
boys in the office of the city
comptroller.
"Oh, we have just raised the sal
airy of Young as paving inspector
from So per day to $125 per
month" said Armstrong and Ar
gall, and the boys in the comptrol-
ler's simply said, You are the
cashiers" and paid the money.
This was in November, after the
paving season had ended. Young
logged along all summer when
there was some activity in paving,
at So per, only to have his pay
raised at the end of the season
when everything was practically at
an end.
1t SO happened that after the Oc-
tober allowance of $125 was given
Young the discovery was made
at a city ordinance permitted
ly $95 per month for this posi-

The PROPOSED CHARTER

that the present plan had been
adopted recently, that it was work
ing well, and that no change what
ever should be made in thee plan
as it now is. 1t seemed at one
time as though no compromise
could be made and that both plans
would be submitted to the electors,
one as an article of the charter
favored by a majority of the COM
mittees and the other as an alter
native proposition submitted by
the minority.
The present plan is modified
very much in the proposed charter.
In addition to the 10 appointive
members, one commissioner will be
assigned to a place on the board
by the council to serve as men,
Der ex officio. Instead of the
present slipshod plan of getting a
quorum together whenever it is
convenient, the park board, ''nder
the new charter, will hold regular
meetings at stated place, and all
of the acts will be open to public
inspection The funds will be re-
ceived and disbursed under the di-
rection of the commissioner Of
finance, and the proceedings of the
board will be published regularly
in the Official Gazette.
