AGENCY ECONOMY.
The fact of the matter ia that Pini

any In the service. The agency i
well located ; the buildings unique bu
not costly , the management strict
each omployo being held rosponiibl
for his work ; the police force th
most thorough and the economy u
hii administration remarkable. Witl
the exception of the beef on hoof , h
has during his four years' administra
tion sr.vod soflbiont , and has that aut
plus on hand , to run PinoRulgo agon
oy for ono yoar. This ho showj In hi
annual report , and ho strongly urge
thi ) department to lut up giving Pin

The question now is , Will the depart
