The people Of this district are Just beginning TO find
out the character and extent Of the bills taking money
from them that were passed by the Legislature which
has Just adjourned. The most Objectionable one Is the
General Sewerage bill, laying two cents square foot
on all property in the city, without regard TO position,
or whether all the sewerage about lot had been nm
ished The amount thus levied is t,oOo0OO The bill
was forced through by violation Of parliamentary rules
ana by legislative trickery. Gov. Cooke has not yet
signed it, and there strong hopes that he Will not
BY another bill about $500 900 voted TO pay the Board
Of Public Works the expenses that II claims were In
CURED in negotiating the first 100000 in bonds The ap
ropraon Of $4,000 TO pay debts incurred at the Inau
guration Ball was 'smugged through in a conference
committee when neither house had considered H. ana
by arrangement with the officers II was not read at
the desk at all.
Statements having been recently published that the
Credit Mober suit is likely to result in failure owing to
an alleged unite all the forces otShe Union
Pacific Railroad Company against the Government, and
10 other causes inquiry at the Department OF Justice
leads 20 different conclusion. The Attorney-Genera
denies that the OF Horace r. Clark cited In the
hill IN equity with the understanding that both he and
tho company would remain neutral in the suit. The
death of Mr. Clark will have other effect than delay
until the name Of the President OF the company can
be inserted the place OF that OF Mr. Clark Inc AtIor
neyenera sees no reason whatever 70 change ms Dene
that the proceedings Instituted by the doNeIhmeh WI"
be successful.
