that the mayor's policy of retrench

least two departments, fire and po

therefor is pressing.
For -mar than a year resident of
the suburb have been clamoring: in
vain for more lights and their petition
to the number of J00 were tiled away
by the executive board of the laat ad
ministration. The reason for thin wa
the fact that ex-Mayor Lane considered

was excessive and he did not W1shi to

this morning, "and the outlay for lights
comes under this head. Police and fire
protection are also indispensable. But
the expenditure for the upkeep of these
departments will be carefully watched
and pruned as much aa possible. No
extravagance will be permitted. :

opposed to the park program, either,

that hides under 25 pounds weight miwt

"fit It be " Understood .that it has
been the practice of the treasury de
partment to arbitrarily declare that a
hide- weighing leas than ii pounds Is
not a hide, but Is a skin. This to ai
meant that tha smaller hide, those
from which' are made the shoes of the
fine ladles ana gentlemen, couia come
In free, and therefor that the hides. on
he calf sold by the farmer must come
Into competition with the foreign- hide,
while the larger and .therefore coarser
hide, from which the shoes of the poorer
classes as well as tne harness or tne
farmer are made, must be protected and
therefor be made .-more expensive.
Furthermore,, this meant, according to
my understanding, that lh hides hand
led mostly by the beef trUstthe
coarser klnd--hould be proteotedr while
the other sort, of which I ha-ve made
mention, would be'on the free list. 1
