While the city continues to pay $20 a day for experts to work on the books of ex- Treasurer Bolln and a certain element in political circles is sedulously endeavoring to induce a confiding public to belleve that Balln's shortage was more the result of his misfortunes than of any evil intent, the books of the various departments of the cl government bear conclusive evidence that these pretensions are purely politic. The facts are that Bolln syste tically cheated the city during nearly, if not quite, his whole period in office. The books show that the peculations were not confined to the last few months of his service, but were distributed through both of his terms us city treasurer Not only did he appropriate the funds of the city, but he converted to his own use interest which has not been taken into con- v.deration in figuring his shortage.

In addition to this he took occasion to make a personal explanation, which was in_startling contra to the figures quoted In the monthly sta ment.

In accordence with a committee report on the petition recently submitted in favor of the day labor system In street sweeping, the council declared in favor of the maintenance of the day labor system. Just before the council adjourned Taylor introduced the skeleton of an ordinance which Wwill be of interest to those who expect to hold office under the next municipal ad- ministration when it is completed. It is en- titled *“An ordinance fixing the number of deputies, bookkecpers, clerks and other em- ployes in the various departments of the city of Omaha, and the salaries of the same, and repealing all ordinances in conflict here. With." Mr. Taylor stated that this was pre paratory to a general reduction of the salaries of all city employes to begin January 1. The chiet cause of the defeat of all similar ¢ dinances which had been introduced the contention that salaries could not changed during the term of office of the employe. Consequently the finance commitca proposed to make the change operative at the first of the year. He had no idea how extensive the” reduction would be or where it would strike. The committeo proposed to take the entire pay roll into consideration and have the ordinance completed and presented for pass ago before the end of the present year. Saunders' ordinance, which prokibits thr ng glass, nalls, etc, into the s, was passed.

His friends say that he has simply gone away to seek another church, while those who believe the story of Miss Williams declare that Hoff- man is an unscrupulous rascal, and that as long as there is any probability of a legal investigation he will remain far away from Omaha. —_— Whee ily Cat.
