REPUBLICAN, SUNDAY

GERS, and they also interviewed in the legal
proceedings Of this company against the
| acting drainage commissioners for the pur-
| pose of preventing compliance with the
terms of said act of March Is, 1870, reauir-
ing said commissioners to transfer their
offices and the property and effects held by
them to this company. That in conse-
| clined proceeding in the prosecution of said
work until the rights of the company should
| be established by the courts, or the oppo-
| sitiOn thus manifested ON the part of the
city withdrawn.
That condition of said contract is that
| the management of the affairs Of this COM
pany shall be placed in the hands
| Of parties satisfactory to the con-
tractors; that for the purpose of
establishing entire harmony between
the city and the company, certain changes
have already been made in the Board of
Directors, and the company is prepared to
| make such further changes as may be sug-
gested by said contractors. SO as to place in
the board such citizens of New Orleans as
shall be approved by the Mayor and Coun-
ell, and inspire the confidence of the whole
community, thus hoping to remove all OBJ
jectiOns heretofore existing against this
of drainage should be performed, and the
drainage fund be administered.
This company further submits, that. its
thorough drainage is a work of primary i'm
pOrtance to the health and commercial
prosperity of the city; that the comprehen-
sive system adopted by this company, as
above detailed, has the approval Of en-
gineers of eminent ability and experience; :;
that the sanitary benefits to be derived from
constant flow of fresh water through the
heart of the city, are apparant; that the en-
closure of the cities of New Orleans and
Carrollton by suitable levees, prevents the
possibility Of overflow; the reclaiming of
the swamp lands, adds immensely in value
and extent to the taxable property of the
city; the continuation OF the canal to Ship
Island gives another means Of entry and
egress to the increasing commerce Of the
city, and the encouragement on the part of
the authorities: to this and kindred works
of public improvement in contemplation in
this section of the country, can not fail to
stimulate business, encourage immigration
and invite capital from abroad, to the mani
fest advantage of this city and it's people.
From the facts and suggestions herein
stated. it will be seen that nothing prevents
the execution of this great work, in good
faith. and TO a speedy conclusion, but the
cooperation of your honorable body, in car
Jefferson, and the withdrawal of all Opposi-
tion to the execution of the provisions of
said act of March Is, 1870.
All which is respectfully submitted for
the consideration of your honorable body,
and this company prays your prompt and
favorable action in the premises.

Manufactured Ice.

This from Washington dispatch to the
New York World is interesting to our ice
manufacturers:
Mr.. Calkin, of New York, recently made
a favorable report on the Senate bill for the
relief of Alexander c. Turning, for the eX-
tension of his patent of November :, 1898,
for process and apparatus for making ice
The report says: "Owing to circumstances
that need not be explained, the ice was first
commercially manufactured in foreign
countries, but since the termination OF our
late domestic disturbances, the manufac-
ture on great scale has been set up IN the
Southern States of the Union, and is being
rapidly extended, but Notwithstanding this
great and progressing benefit to the public
it has not been to any extent remuneratlve
to the inventor as in numerous cases OF ex-
tensions heretofore granted by Congress,
but, on the contrary, has been a dead loss
to him, and those engaged with him, OF not
less than $4,000 of money at its gold value,
besides about Sl7 900 of other gold values,
making a loss or excess of actual expendl-
lures. above receipts, of S37 900, besides
years of accrued interest

A MORAL RADICAL SENAroR.-The
Hon (?) Hugh j. Campbell, Of Muscatiue,
Iowa, celebrity on the threshold of bis
brilliant senatorial career, is met by lit
tie document from the Sixth District Court,
that must make him blush to the tips OF
his elegant beard. His wife sues him for
divorce, and alleges in her petition inf
deity, habitual drunkenness, i'll treatment,
defamation of character, and to cap the
climax, beating her and otherwise abusing
her because she refused to associate, in
common with him, with his Sable Excel
lency, Lieut. Governor Dunn. and our
colored State Senator, P. B. 8. Pinchback,
and, still more, especially because she was
so recalcitrant as to absolutely refuse to
shake hands with the said Lieut.. Governor.
The parties were married 10 May, in 1872,
in Muscatine, Iowa, and, as the petition
alleges, legally and religiously married.
Such is the character of a Senator who
proposes to make lava for the good PEG
pie Of Louisiana!

deceased, he deserved that much
from those he so zealously and un-
scrupulously served. But duty de-
mands that the characters of the
bad and infamous should occupy
their proper place on the page of
history and silence on the past of
the independent press on the sub
ject Of so much fulsome praise be-
slowed on the late Secretary of war
is a tacit admission of it's truth. l
have heretofore held the character
OF this man up to the gaze of the
public as infamous and ne word or
opinion that I have written about
him but what / held to be true,
and has death changed the record?
Would that it could undo the
wrongs that he has helped to in
flict on the country. I claim the
right to arraign his memory at the
bar of public opinion for his public
acts, leaving him to settle the rest
with his God. This place is as
