The city council has discovered a
way to save money The proceedings
of the council are not being printed.
Whether by the neglect of the clerk, or
the studied purpose of the council to
defy the law, we do not know, but we
do know that the public does not save
any money by suppressing publicity in
regard to the expenditure of its money.
The mayor has so much to do that it
is often hard for him to find the neceS-
sary time to attend the city's business
and at times has to neglect some de-
partments of his own, but does anyone
think for minute that his employees
do not have to make an accounting to
him of financial transactions of his
business? Why shouldn't the public
servants inform their employers what
they are doing?
The citizens of Ladysmith elect and
pay city council to transact the bust
ness of the municipality for them.
The state law requires that the pro-
ceedings of the council meetings be
published in order that the people who
pay the taxes may know how their
public servants are representing them
and how efficiently they are handling
the funds entrusted to them.
By voluntary agreement, the two To-
cal newspapers have both been publish
ing the proceedings at the rate the city
would otherwise have to pay for inser-
tion in but one paper.
SO far at least, both the local papers
have kept out of bankruptcy during a
period of extraordinary burdens that
has proven fatal to many derelict
sheet. in spite of the fact that Lady
smith is noe conspicuous for the num-
Der of its merchants who are persist
ent advertisers. And on top of it all,
the city council breaks the law that
requires publicity of its doings.
Now let's all put our shoulders to the
wheej and boost for Ladysmith.

While all the Allies go on spending
millions in building new battleships.
some numbskull has suggested that
the proper way to dispose OF the sur
rendered German navy would be to
sink the ships in the sea. To prevent
friction among the Allies over the dis
position of the former German col
onies, possibly it will be suggested by
the same brilliant thinkers that these
regions should be completely devas-
tated into a mo mans land" and aban-
doned. BY all means let the good
go on!

With the greatest war in history
ended with victory for the United
States and the Allies, year of bumper
crops and profitable prices, the infiu-
enza plague on it's last legs, the men
who have been running around here
lately with patch of red cloth on
their backs and a look of disgust and
evaporation on their faces probably
found in yesterdays fine fall Of snow
the greatest inspiration for their
Thanksgiving. There was a general
exodus to the woods this morning for
the remaining two days of the open
season.
