tions for mandamus. having for their
object the ousting of Walter s. Dut-

the petitioners aver that il was the
duty of the mayor and common
council at their hrst meeting held
after the election to have refused
to have issued certificates of election
to Dutton and Harrison and to have
declared the Offices of councilmen
from the frst and third wards va

FAIRY DREAMS

Fur Coats and silk Dresses
Disappear as East Side
Awakes to Reality.

New York. July ls.--slowly. sadly.
but surely, New York's East Side
10 beginning to awaken to the fact
that no real prosperity has come
ss the result Of high wages.
The high cost Of living. the mad
tendency Of even the thrifty East
siders to spend easily earned money
for extravagant clothes and pleas
ures. and the already felt pinch OF
the slowing down In domestic trade
orders have all combined to bring
to a halt the short-iived belief oi
these sweatshop workers that this
was their day" and that the world
was about to lay Its wealth at their
feet.
They have had their hyer. They
have worn silk shirts, fur coats.
and much nnery. But now the silk
shirts and fur coats are nearly
worn out. wages are no higher than
they were a year ago and the cost
of living. u anything. has gone up.
Factory girls are di eyted in silks

And so II appears that New York )
East Side is about to settle down
to some real saving. and forset
the illusions that came with the flood
of work and high vases during
the war and after the armistice.
