Some year| ago s congressman of , the United States, who desired to ' Mke care of bis friends" by free distribution of ofilces. and who aacallad to account, made use of the now historical query. "what's the outi-II-totlon between friend-?" ^ affairs seem- to hare existed In Ocean City between former city officials and tbair prioted organ. •' In a spasm of reform, when the newly-elected officials assumed charge " of their duties under commission form of goVernment about four years ago. * bids for the flty printing were re- d quired. ei The paper under the "sky pilot" " management was the only bidder and M Ita price was two cents a line. With V this understanding, coupled with the fact that there was no other bid, tbe *' DSSSr Mtsrrsi In ss, -I—. . > . Ill the con-

tract to print the city's advertisements. As In most cases where everybody's bnsioass Is uobody's business, lbs taxpayers paid no particular altentlou to 'he Ledger's charges. The printer's few ware not printed at tha end of aachadrerilsement.as required by law, and no taxpayer, seemingly, looked Into the mailer. The city officials did not care. Waan't th; official organ aver at their back and call, even to declaring that I he component parts ,.f the moon comprised green cheese if the commissioners said so? Tba former officials, exaltad. were sure of their jobs forever. Their organ told them that tbe Wise Men of tbe Baal were "pikers" compared with them; that tbey were mighty and unconquerable. But, alaa, for human hopes and ibe frailly of rnaoklDd. there name a day when their food hopes were blasted. With one fell ewoop tbey were cruabad even as bricks without straw. Ca me an onaaaumlng man Into Ibe office of tbe director of tbe department of revenue and finance. He fairly revels In figure, and be ha. . stubborn »«y Of trying to find out how the people's money Is being spent. This man— Director Campbell (who. by Ibe way. before tbe election, didn'i have a look-in, (bay eaid. for tbe office : be now bold.)— made a discovery tbe i other day, and at the weekly meeting , of tbe Ully Commissioners be staled | that tbe Ocean City Ledger , tix bare made excessive charges for a i certain advertisement during a period t of three years. Director Campbell Isn't a blusterer Ilk. some people. He Just calmly aahf there "appear" to have been ex eeaalve charges. The matter Is now being Investigated 1 by City Solicitor Boawell. I Incidentally, It would "gppaar." too, that for three Eaeters the city has donated 1100 each Easter for epeclal > editions Also It would "appear" thai | the city threw money to it. faithful ally when an ordluanre hook and booklets were prioted. I Appearances sometimes are decep. \ live, end swain in-- i . tlve. again they aren't.

The March winds waft a heart rending rumor— "clerical error If there was au over-charge." "By their fruits ye .hall know Ibetn." Meanwhile there will douhlle-s be a thorough Investigation by BolMtor Boawell. ■eat Ramie Traasieri.
