He has justified all that was pledge? on his behalf during the campaign that resulted in his election. t The mayor's proposzis may be reduced to two chief features—economy and public service. In other words, making city government perform the functions expected of it. Economy does not mean a penny- pinching hoarding of money in order to carry over a large cash balance at the end of the 'year. It means horse senso applied to the expenditure of public money. A dollars’ worth of value to the people for the dollar expended for their interests. It means good judgment exercised in the purpose for which the dol- jar is spent. It means a clear conception of the city’s needs and the ability and willingness of the people to finance these needs. ~ Public service, in the mayor’s view, is to give to the people a business management of their public affairs, maooth running, free from criticism and complaint, providing as adequately as possible the necessities and conveniences as rapidly as they can be supplied. To maintain a physically and morally clean city. Guard} the public safety. And bring about/a co-operation of people and government that will result in thorough understanding and mutual effort for constant better ment. The people cannot but apprové the mayor’s program fn their interest. It is complete, thoroughly busineess- like, and calculated to produce good results. The council, composed as It is of men of affairs, will readily recognize the advisability of the mayor's recommendations and will join in support of the pro gram. The new administration is launched with a splendid sct of officers competent to perform the big tasks ensuing years. It will be the duty of every good citizen to lend his support, to the end that Casper fulfills every prom- ise her most enthusiastic citizens see for her in the ensuing future years. ane ere eee ere Dare ALAS! TOO LATE. The governor has written the heads of state insti- tutions, county and-city officials, recommending econ- omy. It is an excellent suggestion. Eéonomy in pub- lic affairs is always in order. It cannot be practiced too assiduously. Even the taxpayers will find no fault with the suggestion. But instead of withholding this sage advice until the money is spent and counties and cities are scratch ing the bottom of the cash box for the wherewithal to meet their expenses, why was not this suggestion urged months and months ago? Why was the legislature at its last session not cau- tioned to carve its appropriations to the bone and why did not the governor exercise the veto power on ap- propriations for support of useless and expensive state departments that cannot justify their existence, let clone their burden on the taxpayers? The governor is recommended to read the fable con- cerning the locking of the stable door. a ES THE UNRESTRAINED EAST. Whatever the west may have turned up in the way cf spectacular crime in the old days of the wild and woolly, during the reign of the James boys and other notorious characters of that period, we are sure there was nothing in their exploits, and nothing in contem- poraneots fiction to compare with the actual facts in the banditry and major criminal performances that eccur from day to day in those highly civilized east- ern centers, Chicago and New York, not to mention hundreds of other points of concentrated culture in- ferior in size but proportionately equal in ruthless at- titude toward the ten commandments. " Let the New York Tribune condemn its own city in its own language: “Future dime novelists—if there ever are any—wil not need to follow the advice of a former editor of this newspaper and go west. Right here in New York they will find material for all the hair-raising thrillers they have time to write.

What he might do when the e e question came before the senate as a purely party or iniment political matter would be another thing. It would not u be difficult to guess that his vote would be with the party to which he belongs and against protection. If he voted against his party he would become a polit- ical orphan., The southern colonels see to that. The. Laramie Republican takes the view that Re- publican principles are much safer in the hands of Re-| publicans than they ever can be in the hands of Demo- crats who profess to believe in them along about the time an election is at hand. The Republican says: “It is interesting to read that Senator Kendrick in bis speech before the Wyoming Woolgrowers’ Asso- ciation at Casper spoke in favor of a tariff/on wool, and was optimistic in his prediction that it would carry. Good Republican doctrine, but won’t a Repub- lican senator be able to do more in this line than a Democratic one? If Republican principles as express- ed in a Republican tariff are the measures that are needed for the protection and rehabilitation of that branch of the livestock business in this state, then everything possible should be done to write such prin- ciples into a law on the books. But who will be able to accomplish most in this regard—Republican sena- tors and representatives, who ure in accord with the administration, or Democrats whose fundamental po- sition with respect to the tariff is entirely different, and who at the same time are not supporting the ad- nilnistration in its program for the relief of the coun- try? It would seem that this is one of the questions that answers itself.” —_—_—_o—_______ THE FRENCH GUARANTEE.
