if they are found, after public hear
ing, to be unreasonable. The commits

A NEW YEARS JOKE.
Enterprising Newspaper of Paris Plays
Good One on City Council.

Paris, Jan. Everybody in Paris
except the city councillors is still en-
ioying a New Years joke played on
the city by an enterprising newspa-
per. Suspecting that the city budget,
involving the expenditure of $4,000.
would not be passed before the hour
of midnight on Dec. 81, as required by
law, the editor of the newspaper posted
lawyer in the City hall where the
councillors were in session and the fl
nal vote was taken at quarter to one
this morning. The lawyer drew up a
statutory declaration duly signed and
witnessed to that effect, thus render
ing invalid all expenditures made by
the city in the event of anybody test
ing the point before the courts.
The newspaper magnanimously an
nounces today however that it will re-
frain from bringing the entire civic
system to a halt by obtaining the null
LITIGATION of the budget, and says it
merely publishes it's declaration of the
facts for Re edification of its readers.

straint and simplicity and l advise them

lined for myself, namely, silence for a
few months until we have developed our
plans further and can come to the people
and point to some Accomplishment. /
would rather have the government of
this city for the ext few months incon-
spicuous than have it heralded from day
to day in the papers through promises
made as to what will be done.
