The tramp was as dirty and bedrag-

of satisfaction as to his tail. And the
tramp and the dog disappeared down
the street

THE PAYROLL.

In this world. whether you buy on
credit or pay cash, you must settle
for everything you get.
And
In return for everything you do, ev-
cry effort you make-whether you get
your envelope Saturday night or
whether the paymaster is slow with
the payroll-you get what is coming to
you.
You must pay.
You must get full pay.
You must pay as you go-or after
ward. Whether you ride on pay-as-
you-enter car or put the nickel in the
slot at the end of the trip, you must
pay or you cannot ride.
You get your pay as you go-or after
ward. Like the street car conductors
who deduct their days wages from
their turn in, you may get what is
coming to you daily, or If not, be as
sured of this: If you have to wait for
your pay you get interest after ma
turity.
Now, what you do is either good, bad
or Indifferent.
If you do good work you may be
sure you will get good pay. If you do
bad work you will draw evil wages
the wages of sin. If you do Indifferent
work you will get Indifferent pay.
Is it not so?
Here is a rich man who has made
his money by compromises with his
conscience. Credit him up with his big
house and his motorcars and his stocks
and bonds Now charge with betrayal
of trust and a good memory of it, an
extraYagant and ungrateful family, a
I'm going too fast?
| Well. strike the balance. The man
is getting his pay right. along.
And you?
Credit your ups and charge your
downs Charge the tears and credit
1 the smiles. Put down on opposite
sides of the ledger the days Of cloud
and the days of sunshine,
The trial balance shows overwhelm.
/ tngly on the credit side.
Now put down the good things you
have done. and the bad things, and the
Indifferent.
Does the account show in red y,
Then you better begin to get more
daily credits on the journal. Because
good pays good. bad pays bad, each
after its kind But always thespay
You, pay for what you get and yot
get what you pay for.

GOVERNMENT WELCOMES
CRITICISM OF ITS WAYS
So Declares Captain West, Who Tells
of New steel Cars and PEN
aiou Bill.


sion Bill.
A general denial of the conditions under
which a railway mail clerk has to work
as described in a letter from q clerk TO
an Omaha newspaper was made Wednes-
aay morning by Captain f. J.. West super
intendent of the Sixth division % the rail-
way mail service who was in Omaha on
business with the chief railway mail clerk
n the federal building.
''It is not true" said Mr.. West, that
A clerk is discharged from the service be-
cause he makes complaint against anything
wrong with the mail car In which he has to
work or the sanitary condition of the car
as was charged in that letter. On the other
hand the officials of the service empha-
size the fact that such complaints are vel
come. II anything Is wrong We want to
hear Il Immediately. Then We can force
the railroads to make amends. AS for the
mail cars being the frailest the railroads
have IN use. that Is not true. The cars
which have been used are just as formida
bic as the passenger cars, There are now
building seventy-slx all-steel cars for rail
way mail service. The railroads pay
from 5000 to $4,000 each for theil
cars All OF the railroads are put
ting them into service The Chicago q
Northwestern has twenty and the Illinois
Central sixteen"
Mr.. West said he thought that congress
would soon pass the mail olerks' pension
bill.
The clerks did not want the bill 10 e
through stipulating that part OF the clerks
salary be kept back to make up the pension
fund" Mr.. West said But anyway, tina
was defeated.

MONEY GOES TO TWO SEWERS

city Council VIII Take Up the Mat
ter of the Hsnscom Park sewer
Question ut the Next
Meeting.

Unless the city charter revision bill
which empowers the city council TO vote
s200.Oo0 sewer bonds annually. passes the
present appropriation Of $4,000 will be
expended in the reconstruction Of the Burt
street sewer and the construction of the
proposed branch of the south Omaha
sewer
4 resolution for the construction Of the
latter was presented to the city council
Tuesday night and referred to the commit
tee Of the whole. To construct the south
west branch OF the south Omaha sewer
will cost in the neighborhood of $4,000, ac-
cordlng to j. A. Bruce. acting city en-
gineer. That the ordinance providing for
the construction of this sewer will pass
there is little doubt. Work VIII be begun
as soon as conditions permit.
The new sewer will give that part of
south Omaha and Hanscom park a perfect
drainage. The proposed course is begin
ming at Twentieth street and Union Pacific
tracks, along the right-of-way to Twenty
fourth street, where Il crosses. thence to
Creighton avenue and then west to Twenty
ninth street and to Hanscom park. The
sewer will end at Woolworth avenue and
Thirtieth street
Work on the construction of the Burt
street sewer from Twenty-sixth street to
Thirty-third and Cass win begin the latter
part of this month. This will cost $4,000,
which makes the expenditure total $4,000,
leaving but $1,000 of the appropriation for
other improvements.
I'VE estimate that we need S1.OOO.0OO for
sewer work within the next five years"
said Mr. Bruce. 1T will take that much
money to get the sewer system in the
condition it should be. II the charter rev-
sion bill passes with the emergency clause
some Of the money may be available this
year. But II not we will be able to begin
more extensive Improvements next year.
The 100000 appropriation for intersec.
ton bonds is ample at the present time,
but we certainly need more money for
sewer Improvements"

NIT to the City Council for

to be some hot times in the city council.
Mayor Dahlmau sent in the name Of
James s, Kraiick, a democrat. who lives
In the southern part Of the city, but the
council refused to confirm the appointment
by a vote of eight TO four, Democrats
Sheldon and Brucker voting with the re-
publican members.
Mayor Dahlman does not believe It will
be possible to get Krsjick confirmed, so
he will likely abandon him and send in
another name next Tuesday night.
So far there are three applicants for
Lynchs vacated berth, AL weitzel Sam
Pollock and James Cameron. weitzel, who
is member of the examining board, has
the support of the labor organizations,
while Cameron, who is q master plumber.
has the backing OF the Master Plumbers
association. Pollock, who at present is the
assistant plumbing inspector, has some
friends, but without the support Of either
Of the above named organizations, it Is
which pays 5000 year.
The fight will be between weitzel and
Cameron. Weitzel will get the first chance
at the job, for Mayor Dahlman will send
his name before the council next Tuesday
night.
A combination II, the city council may be
effected which will solve the situation
About the first of March the office OF
comptroller will be vacated. the present
incumbent, c. o. Lobeck, having been
elected to congress.
Though the mayor has nothing to do with
the appointment Of Mr.. Lobeck's successor
the council members may get together and
frame a slate which will result in the
filling of both offices.
