Action of that kind will have a salutary effect and will go far towards compelling a respect for the law. ft ft Mayor Thompson is playing the baby act and making himself ridiculous. His veto of two or three the appointment made by the chief of police and approved by the council shows nothing but petulence and narrow mindedness, and his best friends are compelled to blush forjhim. What on earth has got into the mayor? He used tobeamanof common sense, but that rare commodity appears to have deserted him. The names of the men Whose appointments he disapproved were submitted with his knowledge and approval and then he turns round and disapproves of them, because one other, Detective Sheets, whose name was sent in with the bunch of six others, was not approved by the council. Such smallness and disregard of the public interest in a man like Mayor Thompson almost passes belief. ft .ft With the downfall of Councilman Robertson the mayors support in the city council has gone by the board. There in not another of the mayor's more or less faithful little band who has the nerve or the ability to wage the fight like Robertson did either on the floor of the council or elsewhere. Robertson was by odds the strongest member of the band and with his fall the mayors cause is lost. ft ft Robertson will doubtless resign his seat in the city council and that body will have the duty of selecting soipe one to fill his unexpired term. The council will no doubt invite Messrs. Daveler and Davis, the other representatives of the Fifth precinct, to name the person to take the place of their erring colleague. Speculation as to who his successor will be is already begun. Among those mentioned are W. P. Lynn, Chris Diehl, W. L. Pickard and Thomas R. Black. THE SENATOR IN EUROPE - goes with us. - By Killameys Bright Wa there Old Ireland Asthore I f (By Special Marccnigraph.) Milltown, County Kerry, July 3, Well, here we are, the senator, Dave and your correspendent, in the ould dart, as the senator affectionately puts it. We have been here for nearly a week and no one knows when we will leave, there "is so much to see. When your correspondent sent his last letter, we were speeding through France, but Alexandras message called us back. As your correspondent predicted, Tom bought the train. The fellow he bought it of said he might as well throw in the road as there was no other train to run on it, so the senator took it and while we were steaming back to the the coast, he held a meeting, elected himself president and the board of directors and declared a dividend on the stock. He is looking over the field now for some one to be appointed consul at the western terminus who can run the road during his spare time and thus save the senator the expense of paying a salary for superintendance; - A Washington man proposes a plan by which dirty,, ragged, paper money, with its disease germs may be retired frOm circulation, and that is to form endless chains of people who will decline to take it. But so long as we can read this note is a legal tender for all debts public and private, etc. on these bills we want to see the color of the hair of the man who will join the move- ment. It may not be at all fair, but when the Ogden Standard prints a stock car- toon purporting to describe something" which took place at the coronation, we feel impelled to remark that the artist must have overlooked Edwards illness. ft ft We chartered a yacht and intended going straight to London, but the queen sent a messenger to meet us with the MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS. information that Ed was better, so the senator concluded to go and see Ireland.

But the harp isnt there nor the halls, though Tom said he read ini book by a man named Moore that it was hanging on the walls. He wanted to buy it. The hill where the kings were crowned was growing a nice crop of praties. Tom said it reminded him of Imperial Caesar dead and turned to clay, may stop a hole to keep the wind away, only he would write it, Where Irelands monarchs fought and shed their blood, in raising rows, they now raise naught but spuds. ft ft As your correspondent closes tbit letter we are in Kerry.
