To the average adult perhaps little

instead of which the condition in which
most of us leave the usual performance
is one of depression, either over the

two precious hours.
The legitimate drama where words
help to explain the situation as they
naturally do, is more or less pushed to
the wall, while this exaggerated acting,
done after the manner of the deaf and

70 the Editor of The Times:

70 the Editor OF The Times:
reader Of yours, the cleanest paper
In town.
In the midst OF the turmoil of
mud-slinging and campaigning OF the
time-worn street car problem.
pause to tur mover this question In
my mind: Is 1t possible that our
gang OF politicians that spend a
few hours in or near the city hall
each day, can deceive themselves
into thinking that the thousands Of
patient, long suffering taxpayers will
meekly do the bidding OF the ward
healer and vote to secure for the
gang this our latest proposition for
more graft?
We have not yet forgotten how a
number of our city fathers Of the
council had their cases carried over
an deventually thrown out OF court.
We have not yet forgotten the
financial failure Of the west side
bus fiasco: nor the latest boost In
taxes; and the burning OF our
bridge. which by the way. has not
as yet been considered worthy Of
an investigation.
And hardly had the ruins of the
structure had time to cool until they
tried to cut a 32,000,000 melon at
our expense. How can we trust In
such hands a nissne so cital to our
financial interests az a whole, when
we have been go utterly disregarded
In the past Why vote to place
more power in the hands of such
people?
The ofIicials of our city are our
employees, but considering the air Of
superiority thrown around some Of
the positions. one would almost as
sumo they were our bosses, II being
almost impossible at times to get a
civil answer to q civil question. No
doubt hundreds Of you havbe seen It
for yourselves.
Let US not weaken our position
and add more strength to the strong
est political machine ever organ
lied within our city limits by CIV
ing them full power over our only
economical means OF transportation.
Being a working man and one OF
the common herd. am interested
financially particularly in seeing
q few indications Of that modern
goal, efficiency, in the management
Of our present municipal aaffirs be-
fore adding another.
