The city government of Marsh- fleld is confronted by a condition which is not peculiar to this city. Other munlcipalltes which at certain )erIods of their history, never Ircamed of becoming important, luring those periods neglected to lystematize the business of the city overnment and allowed it to take oaro of itself. Such was Kanbas City before the bridge was built across the Missouri river and it took a good deal of courage and careful manage ment to put that city in shape to receive and nssume the greatness which afterwards came to it. Now that Marshileld Is on the verge of greater and better things she finds that taxation, finances, government and all the features of policy which regulate and improve a city, are not a joko but a very serious and im portant nintter. Nobody in particu lar is to blame. The members of the city council may think that the people of the city blamo them, but such Is not the case. If thero is blame to attach to anybody for the absurd condition of municipal at fairs ,it will not attach for what has or has not been done, but for fail ures to do what must be done In the future to put the city right. Mayor Straw, for instance, lias been very plain and outspoken in his state ments to the council of the needs of the city and tho council havo con ceded It. Now that thoso needs havo become painfully apparent nothing remains for tho mayor, but to bo as vigorous in getting down to real work as is Mr. Sacchi. By taking such action he can and should cover himself with glory. Tho Times published tho report of tho expert accountant Mr. Squires concerning tho condition of tho city government and, while tlio report reflected no credit on our system of doing tho municipal business it re flected no discredit on tho ofllcials, providing tho council proceeds to correct the deficiencies pointed out. It Is a mistake to suppose that The Times has Injured any man because of tho publicity given to that report. Tho people of Marshflold havo sus pected that such a condition existed and havo felt Its evil moro deeply becauso It was not understood. If tho city government would only under stand what some of the councllinon understand that In order to suc cessfully administer the affairs of tho city, tho people must bo taken Into Its confidence and treated as if they wore- entitled to know what is occurring- it would provo far moro satisfactory and tho popularity of its mombers would not siiU'er. Tho peo plo ol Marshflold own Mnrshflold and tho ofllcials aro the peoplo's agents. Tho agents should court publicity for all their public nets and so bo nbovo suspicion. Lot tho city coun cil meet tho obstacles which confront It mnnfully and with n feeling that tho apathy of tho past and not they porsonnlly, nro responsible for tho present dilemma. Get tho city busi ness systematized. Get a charter which will bo sufficient for tho needs of a growing city. Get books of nc count, competent servants who shall recolvo reasonable compensation for their work, adopt rules to govern tho meotlngs of tho city council nnd conduct tho public business with tho dignity which befits a placo of Mnrsh fiold's lmportnneo. This is all the pcoplo auk now. Riilldint: lb Aelhe I lore.

WITH THE t t TOAST AND TEA X t O GOOD EVENING. 4 Man's life is like a winter's day Some break their fnst, and so depart away; - Others stay dinner, then depart full fed, The longest ago but sups and O goes to bed. O Honsnaw. o LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE. Talk happiness. What If you're not As light and as bright as the skies, Where tho sun ever shines Down tho silvery lines ihnt swing out of Paradise; Will the shadows you teel And do not conceal Make the shine of the sun any brighter? Will the burdens you bear And expose everywhere Make the load of the weary ones lighter? , Talk happiness. What though You've got an overplus of woo, Conceal it somehow. You will find There's plenty of the other kind To talk their troubles. Don't you let Yourself be caught in any net With such a bunch. Brace up, and show Yourself superior to woo. Of course it is a bluff; but, say, You needn't give yourseli away, And those who listen need not know What lies behind your cheerful show. Talk happiness. By that You rise above the dreary flat Of trouble-talkers, and command A passing glimpse of Happy Land, A passing glimpse that brings some cheer To you no less than those who hear Tho words you speak, and, hearing, lift Their heavy eyes up to the rift That breaks the .clouds and lets the blue, With its good cheer, come streaming through. Talk happiness. It's hard, no doubt, But there's enough to talk about. And though it isn't yours, perhaps, Uejolee at other peoplo's snaps, If you have troubles, cut them out. Ur leave to friends to talk about. Talk happiness, although Your bosom may be full of woo, But If you can't if you must tell How far tho Lord has not done well By you, go qut and throw your words Of woo and troublo to the birds. W. J. Lampton. "What's that piece of cord tied around your finger for," one Marsh field citizen asked another as they met on Front street. "My wife put it there to remind mo to mail her letter," the ono ad dressed replied. "And did you mail it?" "No; she forgot to give It to me." His Report. Father How is it that I find you kissing my daughter? Answer me, sir! How is it? Young man Fine, sir, flue. "Now thero is nothing wrong or ganically with your father. He needs rest thnt is all. As for occupation lot him do something that will nei ther tax his mind nor carry with it any responsibility," said a Marsh flold physician to tho son of a man who Is not well. "I understand, Doc," the son re plied, "I'll got him appointed to the vacaucv on the Marsiilleld city coun cil." Tho Impossibility of telling tho exact truth "In tho paper" Is illus trated by nn exchange who sets out tho following items: John Dovio, our grocorman, is do ing a poor business. His storo is dirty, dusty and noxiously oderiferi ous. How can ho expect to do much? Rev. Styx prcnohod last Sunday on charity. His sermon was punk. Dave Skunkey died at ills home In this place. Tho doctor gave it out as heart failure. Tho fact is ho was drunk and whisky killed him. Should tho editor really print such truthful items ho would havo to meet Dovio, Styx and tho Widow Skunkey on tho ofllco steps boforo ho could get tho key into tho lock. News has to bo modified. i !
