A CLOSED INCIDENT.

= ~. /.
One cannot hclp but see the wisdom
in what Mayor Brooks has to say in
placing the city commissioners side of
the opera house controversy before
the public. In fact there is always
two sides to a question and the Hus-
t1or insists always in giving both sides
a hearing through it's columns.
The Hustler agrees, and as stated
several times, that the least the city
school trustees could expect to pay
would be the actual cost which .ac-
cording to Mayor Brooks, is 10 per
day.
