As\njustification for going slow in\nthat connection he mentioned\ntfiat \"the government haud come\nto the assistance bf South Vancouver, only to receive a slap in\nthe face for their pains in the\nelection of an independent candidate at the polls, and similar\ntreatment for their kindness in\nthe interior.\" He ridiculed Mr.\nBowser's offer of aid as a\n\"bribe.\"\nOne can only gather from this\nkind of talk that municipalities\nif they receive government aid,\nobtain it in the form of a kindness and not of justice; and\nthat in return they are expected\nto support the administration\nof the day.\nSurely such is not a fair attitude. When the government\ngrants aid to a municipality\nthey do so with public funds,\nnot with their own. They do so\neither in the public interest or\nfor the sake of securing support. If the former, they have\nno right to talk of their \"kindness\" if the latter, they should\nhave the good taste to abstain\nfrom charges about their opponents trying to \"bribe\" constituencies.\nEX-KAISER KEEPS\nSIYLEIN EXILE\nMenage Includes Courtiers,\nCooks, Physician and\nCharwomen.\nEditorial Notes\nShop early.\n\u2022 \u2022 \u2022\nThe early shopper gets the\nbest bargains-\n\u2022 \u2022 \u2022\nThe Hamilton Spectator says\nthat teachers' work \"is a tremendous responsibility which\ncannot truly' be calculated in\ndollars and cents\" The more\nthis view of the question\nspreads among the public the\nbetter for the future prosperity\nof the country.\nFive newspaper artists got together\nJo arrange for a set of .cartoons, and\nevery one of them spelled all his\nletterings correctly.\nDOORN, Holland, Dec. \"^.-\u2014(Associated Press)\u2014 Revelations in the\nPrjiaslan state leg-Islaut.ro at Berlin\nof the sums of money which the former German Emperor has been permitted to draw from Germany during the past two years, together\nwith the announcement that the\nDutch governonment will tnX him\nfor an annual, income of 1,300.00,0\nguilders, have caused the burgers\nof Boom to speculate as to what ho\ndoes with all this money. (Nominally a guilder is worth 40 cents.)\nFrom Germany, the former emperor is said to have drawn 1,000,-\n000 guilders, equivalent at present\nrates of exchange.to 11,138,000 German marks, also the proceeds of the\nsale of some of his property In the\nWllhelmstrasse, said to be 40,000.000\nmarks. Besides all this income the\nPrussian government has contributed\nadditionally to the furnishing of his\nnew house at Doom.\nFor a long time William complained of being financially embarassed.\nN.ow, however, according to the\npeople of Doom, he appears to be\nliving in high style.\nNot counting his marshall, General von Gontard and other members of his immediate suite, approximately 50 servants are now employed to keep up the house at\nDoom. This'does not include the\nworkmen who are still engaged in\nvarious repairs about the house and\ngrounds.\nThere are 24 charwomen, who are\nkept busy polishing the floors, brass-\nwork, and otherwise keeping the\ncastle up to the standard of old\nGerman cleanliness demanded by the\nformer Empress Augusta Victoria.\nThey receive the equivalent of about\na dollar a day. Ten of them live\nin the castle.\nIn all, William now employs six\ncooks, who include a chef and an\nassistant living at the castle and four\nwomen who come in to work by the\nday. There are also a number of\ngardeners and personal servants.\nWages Bill is Considerable.\nTo maintain this army of servants,\nwhose average wages, the people of\nDoom siiy. must bo something more\nthan a dollar a day, William pays in\nwages alone about $20,000 a year.\nTheir upkeep costs him as much\nmore and this does not include tho\nhigh salaried employes, like General\nvon Gontardp Captain von lilseman,\nthe \"court physician\" and secretaries,\nwho must cost the ex-emperor about\n$20,000 more.\nAnnounces New Plans for the\nGovernment of Mesopotamia.\nLONDON, Deq. 7,\u2014(Associated\nPress)--rA new plan of government\nfor Mesopotamia announced by Andrew Bonar Law in the house of\ncommons provides that the Arabs\nBhall be governed by Arabs.
