A NEW TIME SCHEDULE

The press dispatches, yesterday morning, informed us
that the net result of pressure for action on subjects other
than the tariff has been the adoption of a policy OF meeting
the Legislative situation as it unfolds in the new congress-"
We are told, further, that the president will send, first, a
tariff message to congress and will follow this with COM
munications dealing with other topics which it is felt should
be considered without delay.
All of which means-as much as anything-that the
president has encountered a serious difficulty in reconciling
theory with practice. 1t is easy to say that a legislative
body will consider this or that and will dispose OF one thing
or another at a certain date and within certain time. But
it is not so easy to bring about the fulfillment of the fore
cast.
The Thirteenth assembly Of Montana, for instance, de-
cided at its start that there would be no last-day rush; that
ness; that all matters would be treated with deliberate con-
sideration. The declaration was made in good faith
there can be no doubt of that-but there were some men,
bers of the assembly who did not join in the declaration
and they held back with a brake upon the wheels. What
the result was we all know.
And SO it is with the welllaid plans of President Wilson.
These plans were formed with the sole idea of giving the
country the best possible service-We are sure Of that. But
President Wilson has found that there are democrats in
Washington who do not share his views altogether and
these dissenting democrats have some pull. They have
changed the program of the special session and they have,
SO we are informed, postponed the date of that sessions
opening.
So the administration is moving under a revised time
schedule. 1t has been running ten days and a new card
has been issued. We suspect that other changes will be
bulletined before long-changes in the time card as we'll
as in the flag stations. Cards which look all right when
they are Strung" in the superintendent office often prove
to be impracticable when they are applied to the actual
operation of service.
Doubtless President Wilson will have a practical time
schedule in effect before long, but his experience has shown
that it is not as simple a matter as it seems to arrange a card
which will make running time and accommodate all the
stations which want a stop" of the limited express. How
ever, the fact that he has modified his first schedule, indi-
Gates that ne is willing to accept suggestions and to do any
thing that is reasonable, just so long as the train is kept
running in the right direction.

FROM MR.. PEAT

Editor. Missoulian: = Having been
requested by many citizens to be-
come a candidate, and noting in a re-
cent issue of a Missoula paper that l
would likely be a candidate for the
office Of commissioner, would you
kindly publish this announcement to
the public as some of the reasons why
| decline to be Il candidate under
present conditions:
The commission form of government
was adopted by our citizens TO place
the responsibility of efficicn. or i'm
proper administration on the individ-
ual and to pay that individual to de-
vote his entire time for that purpose.
Under our present pecIli2. form We
now have a committees of 10 to shift
the responsibility Of even discharsing
a sanitary inspector, or cutting an en-
ploye's wages. This committee is not
responsible to the citizens and is en-
tirely of one class in the community.
With the city attorney being paid
1000 per year this makes II advisers
for the three men paid $4,000 per year
to assume responsibility and admin
lister the affairs of a nice little city Of
$1,000, and expend a total Of 500, O00
per year. AS the local school board, of
which | nave the honor to be 4 mem
Der, spends just about the same sum
and does the most of the work in the
evenings with just one superintend-
ent, it does seem as if the city should
get all it's employees time and know
who is to blame for buying a $4,000
fire-alarm system we did not need.
The committee of 10 didn't tell us. My
idea of economizing and assuming re-
sponsibility is as follows: The install
lation of a city Jail which has saved
the city at least $3.50 per month ever
since. The reduction of water rates
and installation of fire hydrants, which
has saved the city another $3.50 per
month and a refund to the city Of
$4,000 on fireplugs and a refusal to
pay a claim of about SIS, 900 for NOV
ing street car tracks means much more
to the taxpayer than petty economies
like discharging men who have falni-
lies to support And there are sew
eral practical methods left yet to re-
duce expenses. AS the present coun-
The Daily Missoulian. [volume] (Missoula, Mont.) 1904-1961, 1913-03-14

Gil has agreed on making that com
mittee of 10 permanent, | would not
be in accord with such action, and
would not accept a salary for asSum-
ing so little responsibility. If the Of
ficcrs lived up to the beforc-election
promises it would hardly need all these
commissions to transact our business:
A committee of 10 business men; a
committee of ladies to attend to parks,
besides other regularly appointed com
mitties, such as cemetery board and
a civil service commission. All we
need now is a committee to find out
what the commissioners do and an
other committee to investigate why
the gambling in Missoula.
So with all due thanks to my good
friends | respectfully decline to be a
candidate at this present election, for
it's a shame to take the money and
dodge the responsibility.
Yours very truly,
CUTHBERT PEAT.

FROM MR.. PEAT.

The Missoulian prints this morning
n communication from Cuthbert Peat,
in which the former city commits
sioner whacks at the commission gov
eminent in %caustiq style. We believe
1t will occur to most readers of this
letter that Mr.. Peat's view of the
commission government has changed
wonderfully since he went out of Of
flee. While he was commissioner
We do not remember that he offered
any such criticism as this. And the
records show that the present COM
mission is doing better than did the
commission of which Mr.. Peat was a
member. The city's affairs are bet
ter administered and the treasury is
in better shape. AS to Mr.. Peat's
criticism of the Committee of Ten
some politician has been making a
monkey out of our friend Cuthbert
His criticism is exactly that of the
professional politicians who do no,
like to see the municipal government
removed from politics. The Commit
tee of Ten was the suggestion OF
Mayor Rhoades, made when he was
running for office, and it has proved
the best thing that ever happened fol
