City Attorney Bargee has been in-
ter vie wed, He is a young man with
views and interviews. Here is one of
his views as expressed with a sidelong
jerk of his sooratle head and ourl of
his patrician lip:
“This is hardly the time to be dis-
cussing party platforms and pledges,
and the faith with which they will be
kept; but as a certain set of people
continue to ta’k a good deal with their
delay
mouths about the delay of the present
city administration in carrying out the
pledges on which it was elected last
April, am willing to say that I am sat-
isfied those pledges will be carried
out fully and fairly, and the benefits to
derived therefrom will come in
A minister in agnail* country village I
who was noted for bis absentmindedness ij
was once observed to stop suddenly in
the middle of his sermon and heard to
mutter: '
“1 knew she would —I knew die
would!”
After the service was over some one
asked him the reason.
“Dear me,” said he, “did I? Well, yon
know, from the pulpit I can just see old
Mrs. Rogers’ garden, and this morning
she was out pulling up a cabbage, and I
thought to myself, ‘Now, if that cab-
bage comes up suddenly, she’ll go over,1
and just then it came up, and over she
went.”—Tit-Bits.

MAYOR AUSTIN.
m
The interview with Mayor Austin
published in yesterday’s Times was a
very straightforward apology, or ex-
planation, to the public for the inao
tion of the present oity council on the
matters of public improvement. It was
a little hazy in some regards, bat
may be said that there wa$ in it clear
and positive evidence of improvement.
There was a total absence of blaster
and a promise of good honest aotive
work in the near fntnre. Of coarse he
ooald not foresee hie long illness am
absence from duty, and for this he
should not be held responsible. Now
that he has returned he will doubtless
etep to the front with determined ef
fort to give the city a permanent sys-
tem of water supply within six months
ae was promised daring the campaign.
Fine Table Bored,
dae time.” ■*
Of coarse! The time for Mr. Barges
and his friends to discuss the platform
on whioh they went before the people
s before the eleotlon, and only then.
: t is insulting for any of those not of
our friends” to “talk with their
months” abont what “we" promised.
;ut everybody will doubtless be satis-
ed now that Mr. Burgee gives it as his
opinion that these pledges will be re-
deemed in “due time.” To an ordin-
ary observer it might oocnr to ask if
there is any difference between "due
time” and six months, the time set,
>efore the election1 for the fulfillment
of oertain pledges. Such people shonld
be warned, however, not to “talk with
their months.” Better follow the ex-
ample of Mr. BnrgeB and talk through
their hats.
The oity attorney thinks the oity
shonld "oat herself loose from the im-
pediment of bonds whioh nave beep at-
tacked and clonded by even a tempor-
ary injunction” and, the inference is,
vote again the issuance of bonds. He
adds, while on this division of his sub-
ject, that
“El Paso bonds have been attack-
ed, and naturally, by the El Paso Wa-
ter company and its cause, as against
the welfare of the people, espoused by
ts peons in looal politics.”
Toward the latter end of his inter-
view he makes this thrust:
"The council adopted my suggestion,
and criticism to whioh they have been
subjected is either due to the igno-
rance of the critic or his interest ad-
verse to the oity whioh prompts him to
desire some blander on the part of the
city in this important matter.”
In view of the faot that the man who
was interviewing the city attorney was
one of the editors of the only paper
that has been urging the council to
aotion or criticizing fits delay, this was
a most nnkind blow. To insinuate that
the “official paper” could be moved by
either ignoranoe or Belffsh interest, and
that too, by one of “oar friends,” is
the most ankindest out of all. We
hardly believe Mr. Burges said it. He
could not be so thoughtless of the feel-
ings of the interviewer.
In rounding up this well rounded
talk the oity attorney gives this renew-
ed assurance of prompt aotion on the
part of the oonnoil:
"As for my single self I am satisfied
the pledges will be carried out, and
abundant, pare, cLeap water supplied,
but time must be allowed for the ac-
complishment of these things.”
But, really, would it not have been
more satisfactory if Mr. Barges bad
given ns the opinion of his doable self,
or even of his quadruple self? For
in these times of donbt and per-
plexity the public requires many
assurances. It is not always
reasonable in the vulgar public, but
then Mr. Burgee should have remem
bered that great great leaders are fre-
quently laid under the necessity of ex-
plaining over and over again to their
less intelligent followers what to them-f
selves single or doable, is perfectly
plain. In faot Mr. Barges might have
been kind enough to have given the gap-
ping public the assurance of all his
selves, however many that may be.
Of oonrse Mr. Barges will forgive as
for not understanding all the fine
points in his dellveranoe. He would
not expect any better of the Times, a6
he kindly refers to its "assinine ignor-
anoe.” And we are just a plain
plebeian without the inate wisdom be
longing to .a member of a family of
born office holders.
We putonr blushing face among the
mesquite roots.

One on the President.
In Mr. P. T. Barnum’s “Straggles
and Triumphs; or, Forty "Sears’ Recol-
lections,” he mentions having been in
Washington in 1862 with Commodore
Nutt. President Lincoln sent Mr. Bar-
num an invitation to visit the White
House and bring his short friend.
The cabinet happened to be there, and
the president introduced the little mar-
iner to them.
After a little joking Mr. Lincoln bent
down his long, lank body, and taking
Nutt by the hand said:
“Commodore, permit me to give you
a parting word of advice. When you
are in command of your fleet, if you And
yourself in danger of being taken prison-
er, I advise you to wade ashore!”
The commodore let his gaze travel up
the whole length of Mr. Lincoln’s ex-
tremely long legs and replied quietly:
“I guess, Mr. President, you could do
that better than Icouldl"—Youth’s Com-
panion.

In writing a letter of introduction care
should be taken that no requests are
made that will involve the recipient in
any trouble. Remember that social at-
tentions are not always easy to render,
and therefore the letter should entail
only minor courtesies not apt to put any
one to any inconvenience.—Philadelphia
