A Fine Beginning


 The appointments made by City Manager Parish fulfillment of the prediction that he would be an appeals of personal and political friends of app- cants for office and far has named men who he believed would contribute largely to tie public service.
 His recommendations for the consolidation of various offices, such nspectorshps of plumb ing and city buildings: the offices of sealer of weights and measures and electrical inspector: the sanitary and the health offices We believe are in the line of economy and efficiency and we trust that the commission will adopt the managers sus- gestions

 The duties of the offices which the manager proposes to consolidate are not such that they could be discharged by single man, such could be found with the proper quafica- tons, and such d could be found if the pensaton made commensurate It would then be less than is now paid for the discharge of the duties of the offices. These duties more inconsistent than many an employe in q private business is often called upon perform in order the salary which the business can afford to pay
 The time will probably in the course ot the growth Phoenix when these offices pro posed be consolidated be better administered separately. but present such separation of du- ties is not warranted The city has passed into new era when be chosen for necessary offices and when offices be maintained created for many possible.
 The city manager has already furnished proof of his intention and ability give business administration and in making his appointments, he has removed entirely the apprehension that there will be any partisanshp in the government The appontees represent all political parties and all shades of each.

A Good Recommendation

Mayor Youngs recommendation of ordinance compelling the of lots to keep them clean and presenable is good The mayor would have them cared for by the city when the owner neglects do it. the expense of cleaning to become d lien against the property Such ordinance well enforced would greatly simplify the cleanup movement which is only annual and, to large extent, spasmodic.
 Many Of the vacant lots, of them, are eye-sores in the districts where they lie. They have depressing effect upon surrounding proper tv values A whole block and if the area of vacant property is very great. many blocks in the same district will be affected X worse effect is the con tagion of careiessness and shiftlessness in the neighborhood A home owner adjoining of these wastes of weeds and empty tin cans, is to feel that he give his property a good ap- pearance amid such surroundings. The weeds en- croach upon him. His neighbor the other side becomes a victim contagion and finally. it spreads over whole district.
 The owner of d vacant lot may be able to improve it with handsome buildings and may be able to pay for abutting sidewalks and paving. But if he cannot afford to keep clean and decent, he cannot afford keep it at all. The neighbor- hood in which it is cannot afford such an owner ship of it. The of most vacant lots, that is. those held the larger tracts are either aDsentees or persons who are holding them for an advance in value in consequence of the Improvements about them. Such owners retardine the improve ments for which they waiting. stiff lien placed upon their holdings, in the end would be a benefit to them as well to their neghbors
