Kang Yu Wei, fortneriy secretary to
the Emperor of China, but now a ret-
ugee from the wrath of the Empress
Dewager, has arrived in Oregon. where
he hopes to find relief front bronchitis
from which he is suffering. Nearly
seven years ago he took a part in re-
arousing the anger of the Dowager Em-
press. She ordered his arrest, but the
secretary-has fled and sought refuge
on a British war vessel. There is a
standing reward for $100,000 for his
capture. He urges his country men
to study reform methods and then car.
ry the work back to their native land.

“Dave, Dave," she called. No res-

New South Wales has more titan tit)
per cent. of the cntire numbcr of
sheep pastured in the provinces of
Australia. Since 1800 the. wool clip

the enormous sum of $l.330.000.000.
Nearly 250,000,000 pounds of wool are
yearly exported front New South

bred in the colony. and there are at
present nearly forty thousand of thorn
in the country.

The day returns, and brings us the

to our resting bcds weary and content

Strict-urns? Well. there are just a
few about the state besides those
which belong to the criminal common
pleas court of this county. And that
is not. all. There are some very busy
politicians who are moving heaven and
earth to create a few tnore. Some
moves in this direction have already
been rudely checked by the general
assembly, but there are others on the
road for which the “wawhdogs” must
. keep a look out for.
The dictionary defines “Sinecurea”
as an "oflice with pay and not requir-
ing active labor.” One can find those
sort. of things all over the state and lit
the municipalities. They recently
had one up for an airing before the
Judiciary committee of the general as-
sembly—«the state fire marshalshlp.
Whenever you speak to a politician
about that office he always smiles and
you realize that it comes about as near
to suiting all grades of the dictionary
definition as anything on the pay roll
of the state. The legislature of 1903
abolished the office and turned its few
duties over to the state police. De»
fenders of sinecurea for political job
paying purposes are now working all
the wires to save the office. it will
be a grand chance for the ”watch-
dogs" to get in their work if the indie
iary committee is so unwise as to lis-
ton to appeals for patronage.
Another comfortable snap is the
dairy commission. A report was
made to the general assembly last
week which raised the pay of this ov-
er-workod official. who, as Senator
Donovan said in the senate, can be
found actively engaged in the work of
“the third house," to the utter forget-
fulness of the dairy work which he is
supposed to look after. Another poli-
tician said cynically when his atten~
tion was called to Senator Donovan's
remark, “i am glad to find out the
dairy commissioner does something."
Then there are those employment
bureaus, one of the neatest slnecures
in the line. Here is the way they
work it. A ntatt wants help. He
goes to the bureau. They have no
one at hand. What. do they do? Go
and htmi for tile person wanted? Not
on your life. They advertise in the
papers. Attd so the state pays for
the advertising instead of the employ-
er. The agents get a fat salary for
sitting in the office.
Them is a bill before the judiciary
committee which calls for the, creation
of the office of slate marshal. We do
not know whether thcrc is any salary
to go with it, or whether it. is to be
a. free position after the manner of
sheriffs and constables. The proba-
bilities are that a salary is to go with
it. One thing is certain, there is ab-
solutely no call for the position.
SillOt'lli‘Cs locally are not so plauiiv
ful. Perhaps thc softest. snap on the
city pay roll is tltc position of ap-
praiser. No one can tcll whcrc a man
earns the pay he gets in this position.
Among the snaps in a small way arc
the street, forcmansltlps. 'i‘horc arc
more now than ever, according to all
rcports. As a rule. though. the city
is singularly frcc from sinccures.
which may be explained from the fact
that ”w political lines rttn close and it
is easy to “turn the rascals out" if
they gvci too gay itt tanking fat places.
Where there is a big majority one
way or the other, there is likely to
bc trouble of this kind. Down ill
New York. for instance. when chaps
arc on the pay rolls while they are
playing ball all the summer or putting
in timc following the ponies.
The farmers and the “watchdogs"
must. keep their eyes peeled front now
to the end of tho session if these lit~
lie Jobs are to be kept down.
Automobiles Discussed By The
Gounod
(Continued From First, Page.)
Complaint ltad been made that a car-
riage containing four men had a vcry
narrow escape from being struck by a
down freight, train Sunday morning.
There is no gate tender at this point
on Sundays, anti it. was voted to notify
the company. through its local repre-
sentative. Councilman David F. Gould,
that'therc should be it man on duty
there on that day.
Councilman Gould stated that he had
seen the incident referred to, for he
had been waiting to ace the engineer
of the train which nearly struck the
vehicle. The train. he said. could not
have been going at a fast. rate of
speed. as claimed. as it consisted of
scventccn or eighteen cars and was
obliged to take the siding near the
Tony iii, Company hoof house. lit ud-
dltlon. the engineer had been frequcnt-
ly blowing his whistle all the way
from Wlnnipank. The engine, too.
had a full head of steam on and was
“blowing off" as it omergcd from the
River street tunnel. The men lit the
carriage had claimed tltnt they heard
no warning; not even the electric sig—
nal boll at the crossing.
Henry F. loloburn. who recently
purchased a house in Elm street, had
complained to the mayor that there
were two places numbered “ii" in that
thoroughfare. No action was taken.
Complaint was also made about the
awnings in the city business streets.
Chief of Police Bradley was directed
to notify violators of the law-that the
ordinance provides that every veatigc
of spawning must be at least sevcn
feet above the sidewalk.
plained that the reason wiry Box ill
would not work Sunday was because
he had found it necessary to out it. out.
He was directed to notify the tire de-
partment. in the future whenever a
box is not in Working order.
He had in addition. had trouble with
the indicator at the Main street fire
house. it will be necessary to have
the makers adjust it. Mr. Hoyt will
probably take it to New York tomor-
row and turn it over to the manufac-
iurcra. Repairs to the fire alarm syn:
tom are necessary and the whole mut-
tor was turned over to Chairman Could,
of the lire committee. ,
A bill had been presented;' reading
"incidentais for the city library. his."
Councilman Matheis took exception to
this and believed bills of this depart-
ment. should be itemized and he look-
ed after by a council commttcc, the
some as in other city departments. He
was informed that the library «tired.

secured by the applicant.
Wires Removed From Trees.
Mayor iiuxton reported that the COn~
necticut Railway and Lighting Com-
pany andthe Southern New England
Telephone Company had cotnpllcd
with the edict to remove its wires
from the city trees.
Nutting. of the telephone company, re-
ported a clean bill, all of his wires
now being on poles, while Superin-
tendent Wainright stated that all of
his company‘s wires had be placed on
poles. except on live streets, and these
would be attended to as fast as pos’
siblc. There are a few places where
the city's fire alarm wires run through
trees and these will also be taken care
of on poles. '
The finance department was em-
powered to borrow $000 to pay current
bills.
Upon suggestion of the mayor. action
was taken regarding the poison ivy
growing about the city streets. Coun-
oliman Morehouso moved that lbs or-
dinancc relating to the subject be. pub—
lished. which was voted.
leorgc C. lockwood had made cont-
atroet in rainy weather anti pettetratt-ti
into the collar of a building he owned.
The question of whcthcr the city was
entirely at fault arose, and the high-
way committee chairman. Councilman
Mntheis, was directed to look into the
matter and report at a future meeting.
Councilman Mathels stated that ho
had spoken to Superintendent Wain-
rlght. of the local branch of the Con—
necticut Railway and Lighting Cour
pany,_ in regard to sweeping Main and
Wall streets. He had asked Mr. Waln-
right if the company would not pay
one-third of the expense. inasmuch as
the sweeper does a lot of work 0n the
company‘s tracks and switches. The
company's 'reprcsentatlve had had
promised to look into the mutter and
report to him later,
Station Agent John E. Wood had
been notified to make the condition of
tltc planking over the River street
tunnel known to the railroad company
officials. He was also warned about
the condition of a iiagstonc on tho
sidewalk near the depot. The stone
had been tukctt up and when replaced
was in several small sections.
The Curb and Guttering
Councilman Mathcls said that he was
sorry that at the last meeting he had
ntadc the motion to order curl) and
gutter for Wilton avenue and Cross
street. lie was better posted than at
the previous meeting. All of thc prt-s-
ent year's appro rlution was needed
for the regular w rk on tho highways
and to lay curb and gutter on thcso
thoroughfares would be an expensive
lob for the city as well its for tho
property owners. (‘ross strcct was
cspcclally crookcd and in some places
tltc city would bc called upon to give
land and in otitcrs to lake It. ’l‘hcn'
tltcrc would have to Iit‘ a committee
to assess benefits and dnmngcs, all
of which would be cxpcnsivc. ln Wil-
ion avenue. ntuclt grading would be
required. lie was in favor of rescind-
ing tltc vote, but as no time limit for
the work had been Iixcd. the meeting
took no action. Mr. Mathcls said that
latcr in the year his department might
see its way clear to take up some of
this work.
Ho rcportcd further that the city
ofllcinls and the trolley company had
conic to an understanding over the
Work to bc donc on Wall street front
thc tunnel to Holden avenue. The
company would change its tracks itt
some places and there would be con-
sidcrablc grading for the city. The
company had lwcn willing. he said, to
do the fair thing.
There had been a complaint that
water runs off Smith street and galli-
ors on the steamboat dock property.
Mr. Matheis said. in regard to curb}
and guttcrittg on city streets. there
are some fortyvthree thoroughfares in
tho city that. require this work.
Anohcr complaint was made about
throwing rubbish in Pine street.
