Not only has the mortgage on the
pigeon farm been lifted, but Nora Bur-

and enough oats to, feed the pigeons
for several months. Last, but not
least, "Daddy Jim" Burnside, himself,
has a new, big and very costly canary
colored diamond.
Much sympathy is felt for Madam
Burnside. She took up with Burnside
when he was far from looking like a
Beau Brummel and when he had Meth

him, faithfully and zealously pushing
along the cause Of low moral endeavor

dry and Bingoland sports do not care
for ladies past middle age, the poor
woman is deserted and alone.
But that's the way in Bingoland, as
many poor woman can testify. Poor,
unfortunate Alice Powers, sick in body
and soul, recently was taking up col
ection to help meet her necessities.
She said that the sporting folk must
come across. But that's another story,
too.

commissioner Of finance. Mr.. Kane
has all matters connected with city fl.
nances at his fingers ends. He is not
as swift on his feet as some of the
boys, but he can dance an Irish iig
among many columns of complicated
figures without upsetting a sin gle one.
Mr.. Kane is an old-time union man
and, undoubtedly, he will draw strongly
from the union card boys.
Olaf Johnson, former chief of the
fire department, is back from a long
and varied rambling. While the finan.
cial side of the commissionership might
not attract him strongly, he mi ght
welcome the position for family rea-
sons. Former chief johnson has rec.
ord here for integrity, ability as q
leader and as an organizer.
J. C. Crowley is credited with hav.
ing liking for O'Hare's place under
the city plum tree. Since he is man
ager of the Peoples Telephone COM
pany, it is not believed that the vot-
ers of the lowdand city would take
him away from his public service cor
poration job and make him their serv-
ant in the city hall. Stranger things
have happened, of course, as Bob
Shields, c.. P. Crawford and Pappy
McCausland can testify.

and that bids would be asked to see if
it were possible to carry out that plan.
There the matter rests until bids are
received, which, no doubt, will tell
their own story.
The committee from the commercial
organization went back and reported
that they had secured the armory, fig
uring that if the building is erected
the boys can have place to drill in,
although in fact the armory part would
be eliminated. This was pudding fol-

to believe something else.

WEAKLYPAPER FILINGS MUD
AT MAYOR FRED A. BAXTER
Attempt Being Made to Stir Up Tempest in Teapot Over
the Municipal Auditorium rmory Middle Some Facts
and Figures Presented for Fair-Mnded People,

A tempest in the teapot is being
stirred up by the Bingoland Weakly
Leader, which is trying to make the
state government and those interested
in the formation of a national guard
organization believe that mayor Bax-
ter is not going to let the auditorium
be used for an armory and, at the
same time, trying to convince organ
lied labor that he is.
The Leader is up to its old tricks
anything that will create trouble for
Baxter-and to gain its purpose it is
always willing to play both ends
against the middle. -
In the meantime it is not at all GER
tain that the auditorium will be built
until the price Of labor and material is
adjusted so that the city can get some
thing to show for its money. The fact
is that this lowland city is within
$235,00O Of its bonding limit; it needs
and must have a detention hospital
and money for certain street improve
ments; under such conditions, it may
be impossible for the city to build,
even if the commission so desires.
The efforts to get an auditorium
have been met with many obstacles,
which have resulted in delays, thus Ia
Dor has not been benefited by the
work that could have been carried on
last year. Now, it is questionable what
course will be taken.
In the fall of 1918, the citizens were
asked to appropriate $4,000 for an
auditorium. The measure was pro-
posed by Commissioner Tomlinson, who
made no secret of the fact that one
of the purposes for the new building
was to provide an armory that could
be rented to the state for it's militia.
The proposition carried by a tremen-
dous majority. Then, the following
spring, the commission asked that it
be allowed to issue bonds up to $685.
900 for the purpose, and this carried,
almost without opposition.
After the plans had been accepted
by the city commission, the labor Or
CARNATIONS objected, stating that they
had voted for an auditorium, but not
an armory. Investigation showed that
this was correct, as the limited space
on the voting machines had made it
impossible to use both names. Friends
of the armory maintained that it was
known to all that it was to be a com
bined auditorium-armory, but the com
mission ordered certain changes.
The whole thing was knocked into
cooked hat when the bids were re-
ceived, as they showed the cost to be
about 100000. Since then, prices on
labor and material have gone sky-high
and it is estimated that the maple
floor, alone, will cost three times as
much as when the building was orig
;nally planned.
