MELoDRAMA AND COMEDY
 AT oRPHEUM THEATER

Yokohama of several different shades made up the entertainment at the orpheum last night. There was a good attendance. "ElMonte Ranch" is as might be expected a cowboy drama with plenty of action; His Mother" is a delightfully."- impossible story of home life; "The Bag of Gold" furnishes more melodrama with the flavor of Tamala Land; "The Sub stitute" an exaggerated newspaper story is a satire with bit of rough touches; the 1.-TWO Weary Willies" are certainly funny. The same show will be on tonight.

THE PAVING QUESTION.

| In case the proposed paving from
Granite street northerly to Blackwell
street is to cost sci 900 and in case the
street railroad company is to pay $4,000
and the abutters 81 900 of that amount,
leaving $4,000 as the citys share of the
cost, what is the logic of the eity's APP
propriating the entire $2l 900 for this
work. 1t means just about $4,000
greater appropriation than is required,
granting, Of course, that the street rail-
road and the abutters pay their as
sessments. Then, when the street rail-
road and the abutters pay their assess
ments, it leaves $4,000 on the city's
hands which was taken from the tan
payers through tax rate that is too
high. Wouldn't it be more reasonable
to appropriate $4,000 instead of ST.
600 and to reduce the tax rate!
We suppose the argument advanced
in favor of the city's appropriating for
the entire cost of the proposed work is
that the city will be called upon to pay
the entire bill in the first instance and
must be sure of having the money on
hand. But in reply to that, it is only
necessary to state that the city has
other funds at its disposal, which might
be used temporarily, or the city could
secure a short-time loan. If the con-
tractor were to demand entire payment
before the street railroad and the abut-
tiers had paid their assessments, the
situation might easily be met without
the necessity of the city's appropriating
$1,000 for nothing and having that
of money left in the treasury.
The city ought to exact of its tax
payers each year only that which actual
" is required to run the municipality
from years end to years end.

PROMISES TO RESUME RAILROAD

Whatever reason may be back of the
proposal of the Grand Trunk railroad

of the system into southern New Eng
