The Ourtri-ltereit pnm
i to rQ Itlffli before the election
1 oa the queetion M to whether we
boll swept tb charter written by
the board of freeholders ilwN
the past alto tin a they btvtM
writtea or that la they took al
tha old charters tkai cotjld gel
aoiva of than) that were writtea
aolongagq that about half-of
them ara unconstitutional ami
proceeded to rut what tltcj
thought would lo Millicent
change tbu nlmlntrntion
Walter UUmar wax prcddcn
of tha board and practically dl
all tba writing Mr Lutlmer
I it capable lawyer but ho nor
would any other lawyer apem'
several weeks tmio in writing (
charter for the i-Ujr "froa of
charge"
Thla was proponed to be
clioup attlclo mmI the free bolder
propound loHve up to it and uiako
uo charge and any 10 year oh
aoboolboy can tel I you tha
choaptbiilgs pre always expensive
and tha charter don’t promise to
make any exception
- Our preaont nalury of the city
officer that thU would idianRo
U about $1800 per anuuiu lu
8oc 6 article a you will find tha
it propoaea to pay tho mayor
$78000 peif annum and the tinan
dal aocetary 178000 per annum
nnd a question as to whut the
other commissioner "will draw
but he can't draw more than $780
JJil Wo ask right here where can
you got a man that “won't get the
entire $780 00 if it is poVsiklo
which would muko the commie
sion form cost about $tuuoo
more than our present council
mayor clerk ami treasurer'
The charter also uds t'C the
oilice duties oof the commissioner
the burden and expense of asess
iug and t'qtinlixtng tho tiixeswdiich
will cost about $500 OO that”' tlje
county is rtow saving" y '
Total resources of the couuci
at present is about $180000 the
charter would take a part of this
and give to tho school district to
wit: "
Section 8 All lines collect©
for violation of tho ordinances o
the City of Sulphur sh ill bo pair
into the Scboid Fit ml of the City
of Sulphur : '
We suppose our l:g bcnrtoi
' "freeholders will once more refuse
this money tho law allows them
ami tako over these olliccs and
run them Vfroo of charge” to
the city ull of which might prove
more-expensive in the long run
'
11 you had the appointing of a man
to oilice would you hot appoint a
friend of yours whether he was
capable or not? Would ho not
in time work for your iutcryst ?
The commissioners have the
power of appointing sevora
olHce holders under tho-charter
Dontyou think it would moan
the bringing back of tlie ‘polni
oat boss?" Our Presi-
dent lii ' spending considerable
time right nov trying to get good
honest capable mon for post
masters Instead of letting con
gressmon appoint one of hU po
Iltcal cousins which would mean
that Just because ho is a demo-
crat or republican whichever t
it may be he would got his fist In
to the federal pie and tho votora
f oqt the bill and at the same
time doei not get the servioe they
ara entitled to la that the kind
I of poUoeman yob want? Is that
tha kind of other employees you
want man of political standing
Instead of nan that can do the
work to tha beet advantage

Considerable inquiring is going
around ns to what tho present
legislature had tlone toward cut
ting down taxes We know of bu
line good plan to rattle Mich

and tell ' the voters exactly in
plain languago whit they Imvc
done and what they purpose to do
when they convene the 23 of Jthis
mon tli 1 1
