The mayor has good many things
ON his mind just at this time, but his
failure to name health commission at
the meeting of the council last Mon
day night was disappointment to
thousands of people in the city who
believe that now we have an up-to-
date health ordinance we should get
to work under it as soon as possible.
1t is recognized that the naming of
this commission is a very important
matter and that much depends on the
character and standing in the com
munity of the men selected to serve
on it, but it is hoped that the mayor
can take time to consider his APP
pointments and present them to the
council next Monday night 1t is not
customary for the council to transact
much business on the night before
election, but as it is expected that the
nominees of the mayor for places on
the commission viii be confirmed with
out opposition whenever they are
made there would be very little delay
caused by the naming of the commits
sion on that evening What the peo-
pie of the city want, especially those
who have children, is immediate ac-
ton under the ordinance.

There is very little to say about
the election of Engineer Baltzer for
another term ,at the meeting of the
council Monday evening except to ex-
press admiration for the nerve of the
administration forces in forcing the
election of the engineer in the face of
the bitter opposition to his retention
in Office which had developed among
the rank and file Of their own party.
The election was expected. Since the
results of the primaries became known
it was recognized that it was E'now
or never with the engineer and that
if he was to be elected at all, he would
either have to be ''put over last
Monday night or at the next meeting
OF the council the night before elec-
tion before the organization of the
new council. The indifference shown
by the administration to the express
ed views OF many men who In the past
have been its supporters and the dis
zegard of the probable effect of Mr..
Baltzer's selection as engineer on the
coming election can be explained only
or the ground that some of his sup
porters on the council are no longer
greatly interested in the outcome of
TIE voting next Tuesday or that past.
debts had to be paid, combined with
a lively expectati i of fovors vet to
come. This fight over the election of
an engineer shows one thing very
plainly and that is that the rules of
the council should be changed to do
away with all secret balloting and
the aldermen made TO go on record
on all matters in which their consti-
tuents are interested. There are
lots of people who are interested in
knowing how their aldermen voted,
but under the present arrangement
they have no way of securing the de-
sired information
