NEEDS MAYOR; ADvERTlsEs.
Magdeburs, Germany. Views II as Pure
Business Proposition.

Business Proposition.
German cities are claimed to be the
best governed in the world. How far
apart are the ideas Of Germans and
Americans on the subject of city gov
eminent may be seen from reading an
advertisement which lately appeared
In a number of German papers:
The place of mayor of Magdeburg
is vacant. The salary is 1900 marks,
Is5. 500 year. including the rental Of
a dwelling in the city hall. Besides
his salary the incumbent will receive
4.000 marks $4,000 for his official ex-
penses. Candidates should apply be-
fore Sept. l.
Can any one imagine an American
city advertising for a mayor? The
German idea is that municipality is
a business, to be conducted on busi-
ness lines. The office of mayor is one
requiring knowledge and skill of a
technical. professional character. A
man who has proved himself good
mayor in one German town is fire.
quently invited to another.
The larger towns look to the smaller
towns to train municipal officers for
them. 1t frequently happens that two
cities bid in competition for particu-
larly expert man. So when their chief
burgomaster, DIR, Lentz, was appointed
Prussian minister of finance the good
people of Magdeburg gave public no
tice of their need of capable man.

THE hopes Of the Democrats that
Woodrow Wilson is TO be elected by
the votes of,the Independent Republic
cans do not seemed to be shared by
the Independents. The following is
an extract from an editorial contrib
uted to the " Jersey Journal, +" written
by George L. Record, who is generally
regarded as " the brains of the New
Ideaites": DIR. Woodrow Wilson
formally opened his political campaign
by a series Of meetings in Jersey City
the other evening. have heard wide
spread comments from Democrats and
Republicans. The verdict is unmis-
takenably one of profound disappoint-
ment among all independent and pro-
gressive minded men of both parties.
No candidate ever appeared for whom
the independent men were more dis
posed to approve than DIR. Wilson.
His immense reputation and his emf
nent position Inclined such people to
view him with great favor as candi-
date. The meetings were packed by
audiences which were at once curious
and anxious to approve. His three
speeches, as they are reported in the
papers, are extremely weak, and it is
no wonder that independent minded
hearers were disappointed. He com
pletely ignored the issues in which all
independent citizens are interested.

SEPTEMBER was the first month of
the present fiscal year which showed a
balance for Uncle Sam on the right
side Of the account. In July and Au-
gust the government expended more
than it received. In September there
was a surplus of 100000 over all
disbursements, but If the payments
for the Panama Canal we're omitted
the excess of receipts would be 49,
456,OO0. For the first quarter of the
fiscal year the treasury deficit is, in
round figures, S16,00O,OO0. This shows
that that economy programme, which
the President emphasized at the re-
cent meeting of the cabinet in Wash
ington, can giSe good reasons for being
here.

JUSTICE MOODY, of the Supreme
court, finally decided Wednesday TO
resign his seat on the bench, and will
retire on the $4,000 a year pension
voted him by Congress. Whether his
disability, chronic rheumatism, was
acquired in the service of his country,
or is constitutional infirmity due to
heredity has not been stated, but Con
gress has certainly treated him most
literally in giving him the full salary
of an active member Of the court.

more than the value of the crop last

which the greed OF the handlers after
they leave the producer is largely tc

HEARD AND SEEN AROUND The
GREEN.

Manager Robert Ellis, of the Palace
theatre, in speaking of the money saw
ing devices he had met with in his
travels told of the use of paper bags In
a theatre to warn the man who raised
and lowered the curtain instead of the
conventional push button and buzzer
Being stage manager of company
playing in an op'ry house" in upper
! New York state after the first scene
was set he went to the side of the
stage and said to the man controlling
the lights.
+" Where is the button ?
What button, " replied the electri-
clan.
Why, the button to warn the man
in the flies to ra Sc the curtain"
"Oh, we amt got none here, you
| list tell me when you want the cur
tain to go up and I'll let him know up
| there"
All right, / I'm ready now"
The electrician reached behind him
to shelf, took one Of dozen or more
paper bags, blew it full of air like the
youngsters do, and then" bang up
went the curtain.
You see we let him know that
way, we amt had the time nor the
money to put in buzzer yit," ex-
planned the rural theatre man.
