THE CONDITION OF THE STREETS.

City finance is a matter of study for the mayor as well as tn,
city council and the problems they are compelled to meet keeE
them puzzing their brains while the adverse criticism of those ig
norant of the real situation does not make the task any pleasanter
Many of those who have not served on the city council cannot
understand why the Honorable Mayor does not order out a dozen
teams and have the streets about the city put in first class condi
ton. Others are asking why the city does not put men on the
streets, alleys and vacant lots to eradicate the weeds, claiming
that it is the cty's business to do so. They are right, absolutely,
but in extenuation let US call to your attention the fact that all
street work must be paid for out of the city street fund. This
fund has a balance of some cents while there are registered against
this fund warrants amounting to the handsome sum of $4,000.
There is levied this year a five mill levy for the benefit of this
fund which raises about 81 $50 each year. Before any of this fund
can be used for the streets the registered warrants must all be
paid. The interest on the warrants is approximately $4OO a year
SO that the Indebtedness of the fund may be decreased about $3.50
year.
Surprising a man were hired to work on the streets he would
be paid with a warrant and his family could starve to death sew
eral times before he got his money or almost as quickly if he dis
counted his warrant.
$4,000, the amount of the registered warrants, divided by the
amount paid off each year, $3.50, would give approximately eight
years, but the decrease in the amount of interest each year would
lessen the term to some extent and we may confidently expect that
IN seven years an employe of the city on the streets may get cash
for his warrant.
Do you wonder that it is difficult to get men to work on the
streets? There is but one solution to the problem and that is an 7
issue of funding bonds and this solution depends very largely upon
the condition of the financial market and the market for bonds
which at this time is very weak.
The mayors princely salary of $1OO per month hardly justi- L
fes asking the mayor to advance the money out of his own pocket!
and since the aldermen get nothing at all it would be hard to in y
duce them to take on the work. "a
So considering all these things it looks to the council as though s
the Belt streets would have to go without repairs for some years
The fast drying weeds will soon become a fire menace ready
for the first cigarette stub to start a fire. There is no law pro j.
hibiting a householder from protecting his own property and any 20
who cuts down the weeds contiguous to his residence will not
only protect his own property but will also render a service to the
community.

GREAT STAR WAS HITTER AT
YOUTHFUL AGE OF IA YEARS
EPINARD'S OWNER
READY FOR RACE

NEW YORK, Dec. 12.-Before
Pierre Wertheimer, French sports
man departs for home, he hopes to
have arranged definite plans with
August Belmont, chairman of the
Jockey club. for a series of races
next year between his three-year-
old champion, Epinard, and zev,
American three-year-o king.
M. Wertheimer, Mr.. Belmont and
Harry Sinclair, owner of Zev, con-
ferred yesterday and upon leaving
for Denver Mr.. Sinclair authorized
the Jockey club head to act for him.
Whether the races will be held in
this country or France depends on
the comparative demands of the two
national publics.
The Frenchman owner said he
would agree to enlarging the inter-
national field with the entries OF
Papyrls, the English derby winner,
which Zev defeated for the interna-
tional cup; In Memoriam, which de-
feated both Zev and My Own at La
tonia, and My own, property of Rear
Admiral Cary T. Grayson.
The series may be at different
distances and the international cup
may be offered to the winner.
