ing for that crowning feature, success.
Conditions are different in some re-
spects but not inimfcal. A city has its
productive channels. 1t produces rev.
enue from many sources. | am speak
ink now of legitimate revenues. The
fundamental principles of business sue
cess is, let your expenditures be less
than your income. A city derives its
income from many sources: Taxes,
licenses, fines, rentals and so forth. II
the improvements are many, the taxes
are necessarily high. The licenses
must not be eXhOrbitant and increase
in number only as the city grows. The
fines depend more or less upon the
moral condition of the city, yet many
fines are extracted for disobeyance of
the law not necessarily duplicating
morality, but some civil disobedience.
These fines are liable in the best regu-
lated cities and are counted part of
the city's regular income.
The city may have a legitimate ex-
pense and an illigitimate expense.
Legitimate Expense.
A legitimate expense is that expense
necessary to maintain the necessary
city offices and to pay to each a sal
ary sufficient particularly to that Of
ficer from whose mouth speaks the
authority of the city. For him the
salary must be sufficient to procure a
man Of ability and unquestionable
honesty; a man who has been sue
cess in his own private life. The po-
lice and fire departments should be
maintained with dignity. The men in
charge of these departments should be
irreprOachable.
In fact the same rule applies to ev-
cry department in the city's cur
riculum.
And 1t all means more or less ex-
pense, but legitimate. Illegitimate
expense Is that amount of money paid
out to hangers-on, political grafters,
prediction promises, expenses of up
keep Of offices created for some par
ticular friend. rake-offs. useless equip
ment and a half hundred other
things we all know about. l dare say
that the money spent illegitimately in
some cities in the course of year
would more than pay the salaries. I
say spent. I mean to come under

ing his own private gains. And In this
point lies the sum and substance of
our greatest necessity. The greatest
successes of our country are not office
seekers. They are not politicians in
the true sense of the word. He may
be the man behind the gun in some
cases and that Is just what has cor
rupted politics. 1t Is that expectancy
of political power manifested through
the office holder which made him give
his financial influence, and the man
in office is subject to his beck and call
regardless Of what Is right and wrong.
Who is to blame for this state of af-
fairs? You and |, the people. are to
| blame. We know the conditions. We
are not extremists. we do not want a
fanatic, but we do want man big
enough and broad enough to carry the
weight of responsibilities involved in
the government OF city.
We want the fortificatiOn derived
from the rule of such man. with
this kind of fortification city's
strength increases both morally and
physically and with the moral and
physical improvement the general up
keep diminishes.
immortality decreases the standard
of citizenship. for when it is known
that certain laws are disregarded and
not enforced. there Is a general influx
of undesirables, who exist solely from
the disobedience of the law, which es-
tablishes most lamentable reputation
for the community.
1t Is against this element of society
that city need fortify itself and the
only way to build that fortification is
with men. Men big and broad who
will in the face Of all opposition en-
force the law. With this condition
satisfactorily developed, 1t matters not
what the form of government may be,
1t will prosper.

that head all private appropriations,
briberies and so on.
Therefore, l say the greatest forti-
fication necessary in our modern cities
are not walls built OF stone and NOR
tar, but walls built of individual char
acter in public office. Such forti-
fication will stand against the world,
honesty.
Opposition is necessary; without it
there would be no individual effort.
As in games of ancient Rome, the
athlete put forth every effort to win
the simple crown of laurel, SO may
we in the hope of reward, exert our
selves in the effort for individual
achievement. Remove from the life
of man the hope of reward and he
becomes an inert thing. satisfied with
the ordinary, commonplace attrac-
tions of the every day life. In other
words. there would be no strife, no
competition, no opposition. Through
these channels runs the veins that
have produced the great political par
ties of today, and through the oppo-
sition of these great parties men have
risen to positions Of dignity through
individual effort. Men may ask what
hope of reward is there for man.
regardless Of his honesty and individ-
i'll Wucu tuc OppoSitioH VIII
brand him as criminal? True there
is u question, most lamentable one,
but truth will out, and If that man
will stand out in the face of all the
accusations, in the face of all the Of
fers of bribery and continue to do
that which he believes Is right and
honest, he will win, because he is
fortified with the same force that
fortifies a city when her officers are
big, capable men.
Debt to His City.
There Is a certain element Of sacri-
flee when man of desirable char
acter accepts an office wherein the
remuneration is less than that re-
ceived in private life. But on the other
hand every man owes 1t to his city. l
say there Is an element of sacrifice
when a man of desirable character ac-
cepts an office. But this rule does
not apply to the man who seeks the
office for the sole purpose Of further

Prices Asked Get
No Response From
the Contractors

PORTLAND, ore, April l4.-Little
business is showing in the wool mar
ket in the Pacific northwest at the
moment. Contracting in the Yakima
section has practically ceased and the
same is true OF the rest Of the north
west sections.
While the general market situation
for wool Is still very good, the prices
being asked by those willing to sell
are above the basis that eastern con-
tractors are willing TO do business at
just now. This lack Of anxiety on
their part is said 10 be due principally
to the fact that It IL impossible to Sc
cure transportation.
The market for mOhair will be for
mally opened with the initial sale for
the season on Saturday. The market
up to this time has scarcely been OPP
ened. There have been reports that
offers have been made as high as S5c
pound. but the highest. sales that
can be fully confirmed are around 81
@ssc.
According to leading local interests
there has been a very serious decrease
in holdings Of goats in this section
during the season and this will there
fore curtai the total output of hair.
