The increased salaries of building inspectors will cost i the city $145,000 more a year. The addition to the city’s payroll is excused on the ground that the higher | tent men and elevate the standards of inspection, oe But as the department, though empowered to en- | Rage better qualified inspectors, must still mainly rely ON its present force, the wisdom of the larger expendi- ture for what will in effect be the same grade of ability % fs not apparent. “he man who “inspected” the Dar- a lington Hotel is still in the department's employ F though officially recommended for dismissal. Is it to - be presumed that he will be a more “competent” man ws because of fiis larger salary? The increased appropria- a ‘tion can hardly be said to carry its justification in a i Promised higher grade of efficiency. * Some time ago it was discovered that there was too ~ Tittle money available to maintain the vacation schools | on their former plane of usefulness. The Baptist! Mis ion Society has now come to the city’s relief by @stablishing sixteen summer schools on the east side ne and in the Bronx, These schools will be formally opened to-day and they will continue in session until ae the end of August. The society's admirable work > warrants the belief that its schools will prove as useful 5 the city’s own. But the reliance placed on non-municipal aid to F. meet municipal needs is not flattering to. city pride. iS Money seems to be abundantly “available” for less i worthy causes, It was “available” to the amount of \ $20,0C2 fo: the Williamsburg Bridg. celebration, It Is “available” to the amount of $50,000 for the “fire- works, music and carriages” with which it is pro- * Posed to make a junket of the subway opening.

You can’t put Tammany hep to the ob 4 vious. it ise follow-the-leader organization and some times it acts ike a band of kids doing stunts, If ever ® great Democratic organization had a chance to make good in @ convention Tammany Hall had the chance here. !

Everybody in St. Loule with a yen for politics was lobking on and giving kind applause but Murphy. He came here with blinders, “You know what happens to consistent performers on the race track when they equip them with blinders, If they have been used to running with unencumbered faces the blinders put a discount of twenty, fifteen and five on their speed. In New York Murphy runs in the Municipal Stakes in his bare map, spots every furlong pole as he passes and keeps tab on all opposition, In \& the National Wemocratic Stakes he 1s about the only \ entry that ran out at the turn and came down the ) stretch like a crab, backward, { “Tammany Hall will go back to New York with a repu- { tation of cutting ice at St. Louis with a couple of ‘forks. | ‘ Of course the great Democratic bunch in New York will go to the polls on eleotion day and vote for the nominee, Not because Tammany Hall had any part in choosing t him. however." “It would be funny !f Tammany would bolt,” remarked the Cigar Store Man, “It sure would,” answered The Man Higher Up, “ae funny as looking at a man sitting on a third rail with his bare feet on one of the main tracks,” The Fifteen Matches.
