Two sides to every question:" Now 1 wonder if that's true, For if it is it ought to be dis cusseds by me an you. If | should say that it's a fact, an you say it is not, We might indulge in difference an argue quite Q lot. If l say that a trees tree, an you say we ain't sure; I feel as though I've got to give your brain the mental cure. An yet folks ''knew" the earth was round, gill Christopher got wise,
 An with the gems O Spain's fair queen he caused quite @ surprise.
 You can't be, sure your enemy is wrong, your friend is right;
 For facts may have developed that change things most over night.
 An yet. jest now, I've said 8 thing that error may con- An yet it may be true - the same oP argument again. The only thing that we may do is find out all the facts An even then the conscience may have modified some acts
 An base our judgment, hum ble, on the things we know the best,
 An let the people O. the world in wisdom judge the rest.

BY. THE PEOPLE FOR THE
 PEOPLE.

Many times has it been advocated in this paper that the more interest he people took in city affairs the better it would be for the city.
 But no suggestion was ever made that a citizen should go into some public office, look over the books of some public officer, and then register a complaint that such public officer lsed too much ink in making his en- ,ries. The "civic interest," of a man nay be carried too far, even with he best of intentions.
 Some citizen of the city may stop where public work is going on. After considerab ble time spent he may find hat the size of the pipe being used .or a sewer is too largo or too small
 n his opinion, for it's proposed pur- pose. He makes complaint to some oomplaisant member of the Common Council and much time is taken in dis 2ussing the matter while things of greater importance are left ''on the ,able." Competent men are supposed 70 have charge of these matters.
 Another citizen may be impatient and in a hurry some day and think that the elevator in City Hall does not run fast enough to suit him. He may make a similar complaint to some member of the Council and this matter becomes burning issue. There is a proper commission which undoubtedly knows all about it. Other matters of more or less inn portance, all under the jurisdiction of one commission or another of the city government, may thus be complained ] of, and much valuable time lost when che Common Council meets. This is carrying interest" in city affairs to an absurd point.
 Commissions and officers are ap- ] pointed or elected. The best men ob- l tainable are secured to handle the business. Seldom does the criticizer 1 or the member of the Council to whom the criticizer makes. his com plaint know the general scheme of the | city government, nor the reasons why work is being conducted in the way it

Tho third important factor In
unemployment, we believe. iB the
delays OF state and municipal con-
tractors, who bid for highway,

rather high figure. basIng their
higher figures upon extra cost OF
operation during the rainy season.
While this additional cost Is rccog-
nlzcd nB legitimate by state and
municipal officials. and tho con-
tracts aro lot on that basis, tho
contractors do not perform tho
work during tho expensive labor
period. Thus tho contractor real
Ices a greater profit on his bid, but
tho bread winner and his family
are deprived OF their benefits wh''.
were figured In the original con-
tract. This condition. too. We be-

have been performed by crctain
public utilities throughout the win

granted those utilities increased

coiving authority TO increase their
rates tho corporations seemed to

NOTICE TO DELINQUENTS ON FIRST
THREE UNITS OF PAVING

The attention of Delinquent Lien Debtors
on the first three paving units is called to the
urgency of the situation confronting the Com
mon Council on May First, next. On that date
the principal of the remaining outstanding
bonds on those units, amounting to $47,8l8.53,
will be due and payable; and the bonds them
selves will be presented for payment to the city
treasurer on that date.
There is in the hands of the city treasurer
applicable to that purpose $31 1892, the diff
ference or $16,633.51 represents the delinquent
principal that must be met besides the accrued
interest if the financial integrity of the city is
to be maintained. There is no other source
han the delinquent Lien Debtors from which
the necessary funds can be secured to meet this
liability. 1t is therefore imperatively necessary
that the delinquent Lien Debtors awake to that
fact and come forward at once with the bal
ance due on his or her assessments in accord
ance with notice thereof recently received by
them.
The Common Council has noted also the
amount of delinquencies existing on other paw.
ing units including the first installments on the
more recent street improvements and it causes
the council to hesitate in ordering new i'm
provements petitioned for until these latter de-
linquencies are approximately paid up.

ATTORNEY HURLS WEIGHT
AT WITNESS IN COURT

The United States branch of the
Police Court was thrown into excite
ment Yesterday when Thomas l.. Jones.
colorrd lawyer. becoming incensed by
epithets hurled at him from the wit
ness stand. picked up a filing stamp
from the clerks desk and threw it
with full force at the witness, Samuel
Smith. colored. Seeing the missile miss
by d small margin. Jones rushed for
ward. but was seized by Bailif Car
rctt. while the other man was held
by Marshal Sackey. The two men
were committed to Jail for twelve
hours. without bond. by Judge Hardi-
son on the charge of contempt of
court.
The affair started when Jones was
cross-eXamining Smith. who had
taken the stand to testify in behalf
of his mother. Mrs Mariah Page. who
had brought threat charge against
Nettie Foster, colored, whom Jones
represented. Smith, during his tes-
timony, grew incensed against Jones
and finally called Jones a "scoun-
drel'' 1t was then that Jones lost
control of his temper and threw the
bering machine, weighing several
pounds.
Jones Immediately after the oc-
currence apologized to Judge Hardi-
son, who refused to accept it, saying
the affair was absolutely outrageous.
The case in which Jones was the
counsel for the defense was con-
tinued.
At the conclusion Of the scene Mrs.
Hattie F. Thomas, who was present
in the courtroom awaiting case in
which she was interested to come up,
was seen to sway forward in her seat
while tanning herself violently, and
then pitch forward upon the floor.
Bailiff Garret rushed to her aid. and
with the assistance of several others
carried her out of the courtroom into
the marshars office. After few
first aid remedies were administered
she was brought to consciousness,
and stated that she felt no i'll effects.

that caused me to swoon." she said.
