LET CITIES DO OWN PAVING.

tWeoater City Freeman TribuneJ.
II some legislator would prepare q
bill and push it thru the iowa legisla-
ture permitting towns to build their
own sewers and lay their own paving
It would be something worth while.
Under present laws city councils must
let by contract and must let to the
lowest bidder. But there is nothing in
the law to prevent the FORMULATION OF
plans and specifications that substau-
TALLY result in a monopoly. A certain
kind of brick or a particular kind OF
sewer pipe must be used, according TO
the specifications. and it oftentimes
happens that but one firm makes the
kind of material specified. These spect-
hcations are not drawn by accident.
There Is controlling interest behind
them, but the council may be innocent
of any intended wrong. In some states
cities can, lay their own pavements,
hiring labor by the day and buying
the material where they can do the
best. Michigan has such law and
Ann Arbor has laid good concrete
pavements at IS cents per square yard.
Where Is the lawmaker who will take
it upon himself to give the cities Of
this state permission TO do such work
them selves when il appears to their In
terest? Fathering such a law as this
and pushing it to successful issue. is
far more assuring than the frequent
end oft-repeated assertion of the leg
islator that he is the friend of the
downtrod6en peepul and the guardian
Of the interests Of the hardasted labor
ing man.

One Of the minor considerations in
the New York election was the pro-
posed incres sc in the governors salary
to $4,000 a year The Triture, COM
mendins the proposition, said: The
expenditures which the governor is
reasonably expected and practically re-
CURED to make justify the higher fig
ure.''
If the real purpose of the increa sed
compensation was 10 provide fund
for entertainment and other public ext
gencies 1t would suggest Itself to the
casual onlooker as better TO set aside
a definite amount for such purposes.
What assurance could the state have
that adding materially to the COVER
nors salary would insure CORE
spending expansion in the governors
cutlays for entertainment?
Moreover. is not the public likely to
forget shortly just what was in the
mind Of those who proposed the
change. and cone to look upon the
new salary as the proper measure OF
governors services, and gradually be
led into making all other official SAL
aries to conform TO It?
The people can not be too watchful
of the tendency to measure public SER
vices by the standards OF the highest
paid private service. The average per
capita earnings Of the American people
are about 1925 a year, and somewhere
ir the calculation that fact must be
taken into account.
