Mo ralise tho law requires it, for one thing, but also because most officials can't stand it nioro than ono term. In olden dnys, with caucuses, nnd nominating speeches, and torchlight parades, thcro woro plenty of candi dates. Nowadays friends havo to go into tho "urging" business, and wo go to tho primaries (about as exciting affairs as tho study hours at tho li brary) without knowing whether thoro'U ho anybody to voto for or not. Why has municipal offlco been ro lcgatcd to tho list of unclaimed bles sings? Let us consider tho induce ments for busy mon to claim this lion or. Can it ho tho pay? Not so you can uotlco it. A man could make us much at a couplo of good winnow washing Jobs a week as by being ma- yor or councilman Is It thov hon or? Ever hear of a councilman get ting a gold medal from tho peoplo In token of honorablo service? Ever hear of any teas given In his honor, or any subscription lists started to buy him a gold headed cano? Ever hoar an body proposo a toast for him at n banquet, or suggest a voto of thanks at tho end of his term? Know of any babies named aftor him, ex cept his own? Ever hoar any strcot talk about how deserving ho Is for his service? NIxlo, so fur nuiwo oh-. Borvo. WelLthon "what do wo expect ror ffy cents?" Why, wo spnply Insist that our officials "run tho city's busi ness Just as thoy do their own.!' That's tho formula.

Do slrablo as this may bo, wo shall por haps havo to work up to it gradually. It Is costly nt tho start, and finds Its profit In tho eventual working out. Mcauwhllo, might It not bo worth while to adopt n spirit of holpfull uess and appreciation towards those vho sorvo us In municipal offices? As long as wo expect business men, for tho honor a prophet has in his own country, and a short montlon of his official term In tholr obituary no tices, to tako thoso bunions on them selves, wouldn't It bo a fair Idea for tho peoplo to glvo soino tlnio to mu nicipal affairs bo that whon our of ficials listen so hard for "tho volco of tlio pooplo" thoy may hoar a iiolso, and ono than can bo Intelligently tin. dorstood? Might wo not also quit badgering ,our officials into n stato of despera tion and humiliation bcoauso of ad verso decisions In mattorB than con corn us individually? Maybo It would help.
