APPQINTIVE POWERS
WITH COUNCIL ONLY
[Continued from First Pa#e.]
pass upon appointments at the hear
ing given yesterday afternoon to the
law and mayors' committee of the
Third Class City League of Pennsyl
vania by the Senate committee on
municipal corporations.
The fact that the Democrats In Har
rlsburg's Conncll always disagree with
the majority when appointments to
city ofllrefl are to he made and that the
objections ns a rule arc based wholly
on iKilltical reasons was cited as no
excuse for taking tills power from the
hands of the whole body. Mr. McHugh
declared that the present plan was
working out splendidly In practically
all the other cities of the Keystone
State.
To Retain Nonpartisan Feature
Pleas for the retention of the non
partisan feature, the election of the
city treasurer by the councilmen and
not by the vote of the people, as has
been suggested: election of commis
sioners by designating that the two
candidates receiving the highest vote
be chosen for four years and the other
two for two years; fixing the terms of
city solicitors and engineers to begin
May 1, and for the proposed salary
falser from $2,500 to $3,600 a year
were also advocated.
The proposed amendments, it is un
derstood. will be considered when the
measure is taken up on Monday.
While the arguments advanced be
fore the Senate committee in a two
hour session during the afternoon were
more or less of a rehash of the pro
ceedings of the committee in City
Council chamber yesterday morning,
the meeting was not without its high
lights.

Senator Beidleman and James A.
Don't Spread the Dust when
You Sweep—Collect It
"Making the dust fly" certainly de
scribes the usual method of (weeping.
Even dusting caps don't really keep the
hair clean and your throat becomes
literally choked. c
But this is all past now. There is a
better way to sweep—a dustless
And it's so simple too. Just sprinkle a
little Nomordmt across the floor and
then sweep it ahead of you as you go.
Komordust holds the dust and keeps
It from spreading. It enables you to get
the room much cleaner too, for yon don't
"Means Just what ft says"
All Grocers —10c. & 25c. a Can*
Gardner, city solicitor of New Castle,
had a brief but lively set-to when Mr.
Gardner advocated the striking out of
the amendment which eliminates the
nonpartisan feature from the act. Mr.
Gardner stoutly declared that New-
Castle was satisfied with its Council,
that the system was working out nicely
there, and that it didn't want any
changes. "Maybe." said Mr. Gardner,
"Harrlsburg didn't come out so well ,
In the selection of Its councilmen, but '
New Castle did."
"Well, in Harrisburg the Council is
'3 to 2,' but if you read a certain news
paper." retorted. Senator Beldlemnn.
"you'll discover that the members are
always referred to as three Repub
licans and two Democrats. What this
newspaper does is to adversely criti
cise the Republicans and praise the
Democrats."
Harrisbur*'s Council Again
Reference to Harrlsburg's Council
was made a little later when Senator
Reidleman was questioning Nelson R.
Bennett, superintendent of finance and
accounts of Wilkes-Barre, on certain
features of the bill.
Mr. Bennett said he "had heard" that.
Harrlsburg's councilmanic affairs could
be conducted more smoothly, perhaps,
"if certain outside persons kept their
hands out of it and left it alone."
"Whoever told you that." promptly
returned Senator Beldleman, "told you
what was not true."
SEMIMONTHLY MEETING
OF THE MEADE W. C. T. I*.
A semimonthly meeting of the
Meade W. C. T. U. will be held to
morrow Evening at 7.30 o'clock, at the
residence of Mrs. W. H. Young, 13 3d
State street. The topic for discussion
will be "Come Over and Help. Us"—
Temperance missionary co-operative.
■Leader, Mrs. Violet Hollar Bnlan. The
ladies are asked to bring thimble and
needles with them.
spread the dust to another part of the
room with every stroke of the broom.
With Komordust you can clean any
room in half the time With half the effort .
and you only have to sweep half as often, •
because you get your rooms so much
cleaner every time you sweep.
As one housekeeper expressed it, "It
is just like having an extra maid"—
she has so much time for other things.
Yet Nomordust coats bat a few pennies
a month. Get a 10c can to-day at your
fa vorite grocer—he'll refund your money
if you're not more than pleased.
