sMALLEY APPOINTS SCHROEDER.

Mayor Smalley of Hammond has
appointed Jake Schroeder a member
of his board of public works despite
the protests of the business men of
Hammond. SO far in his administra-
ton the appointment is probably the
most unpopular act of It, 70 GUST a
man like Adam Ebert for plum
seeker like Schroeder is not thing
to make Mr.. Smalley popular
1t seems that the Becker admits
tration promised the north side
place on the board of public works in
return for the support of its council
men in preventing the abolition of
the board of public works, which was
threatened by the democratic clique.
Mayor Smalley evidently thinks it
is up to him to keep the promise that
Mayor Becker made at that time. He
fears the political effect Of his re-
fusal to make the appointment OF a
board member from the north section
of the city
We cannot understand why sec
tionalism has to be dragged into
board of public works appointments.
Is the north side any more deserving
of representation than any other part
of the city? Hasn't the north side its
councilmen The board Of public
works should represent the city As a
whole. not as any part of it,
If board membership we're an
elective office Mayor Smalley would
not think OF nominating such a man
as Schroeder But because It is an
appointive office he thinks the man
is political factor on the north side
and SO favors his appointment
The situation is believed to be fhe
last straw that win break and pre-
cipitate demand for a progressive
business like administration Of
affairs in Hammond

Contrast this with the plan for
PENSIONS sick benefits and life insur-
ance that has been announced by the
American Telephone and Telegraph
and associated companies.
The company has set aside a fund
Of $1O.000,000 which is to be paid
out on basis of the years of service
and the rate of pay. The rule is
per cent of the average annual salary
for the ten years or service previous
to the retirement
Thus IL is seen that the size of the
pension is determined by degree of
efficiency attained by the employe
previous 70 his retirement This is
the proper basis for estimating a pen
sion.
In case of accident the amount Of
the disability benefits are determines
by the amount of the pay The en-
ployee being allowed full pay for a
certain number of weeks and half pay
for an additional number. This is
also true of sickness disability bene-
fits
In case of death the amount of life
insurance is also determined by the
amount of the pay and is equal to
three years pay In the case Of both
the disability benefits and the life in
suranee the company does not dis
erIminate between accidents in the
service and out of the service except
In the amount of the benefits.
A striking thing about the admin
istration of this fund is the fact that

CHANGING SCENES.

tOliver Perry Manlove)
over the earth the night was stealing
Shutting It mp IN its gloom.
All Of its verdure and beauty conceal
ing
AS il it were but tomb
While Up ia the sky great clouds We're
messing
And black as the earth below
But fragrant wind with song was
That had no burden of woe.
I knew that the flowers in their beds
were sleeping
Tho their eyes were hidden from me;
l heard the swish or the streams that
were lcapins
Along OF their way to the sea
1t seemed that the earth had been for
saken
Night was so lonely and still
But morning would come and the world
awaken
with ali the things that it nil
But the stars in the sky were unwilling,
The clouds we're passing away.
While UP from the east the moon came
trailing
And night was in grand array
1T is often like this in our sorrow
The cloud Is lifted away-the tomor-
The world grows brighter before
Gives place 70 another day.
