thanks to the ladies and gentlemen
who SO generously gave their time and

serves much more than the thanks we

That RlQht Of Way AGAIN.

A proposition from S. T. Smith, Su-
perintendent Of the u. p. Railway,
has been received by the City Coun-
Gil, in which Mr.. Smith states that the
railroad company will extend the pres
ent Fourth street track directly south
and make it the main track, provided
the city will donate to the company
the track already laid on Fourth street
(which now belongs to G. X. Under
wood 4 Col; pay all damages sus-
tanned by appropriating private prop
erty for the track, purchase for the
company land near the main track
upon which they can build their Y,
and give the company the exclusive
right of way on the street without ex-
pense to them. In consideration of all
this the company agrees to make that
the main track within four months
and build passenger depot near the
Iron bridge for the use of the McPher-
son-LindsbOrg road.
This proposition was discussed some
what ut the Council meeting last Mon
day night. Finally, q special commit.
tee, consisting Of Councilman Bone,
Miller, Harms, Wight and Dickinson,
were appointed to make an estimate of
the cost to the city il the proposition
was accepted. The committee looked
the ground over last Tuesday and
found that the expense to the city
would be in the neighborhood of $IO,-
900. The switch ground for the y
would have to be purchased, - also
number Of lots, the hide warehouse Of
VIM. We'll, Shultz 4 Wilmarth's shop
and the damages sustained by owners
Of property adjoining the street would
have to be settled.
We understand that the committee
have decided the scheme to be imprac-
ticable and will 10 report 70 the Coun-
Gil.
After reading the proposition the
conclusion is reached that the railroad
company Is not very anxious about the
matter. and that the proposition before
the Council was the outgrowth of some
body's proposition to the company. |
There are people here who believe that |
his whole matter has been brought up I
% crowd out the entrance Of another
'ailroad into the city limits. For one,
re are In favor Of keeping all railroad
racks as far as possible from the heart
II the town. and especially from cross
ny Iron avenue in the vicinity of the
ridge. We would not be in favor Of
transforming the Fourth street side
rack into . main track, even IL the
abroad company would agree to do it
1 their own expense.

1t is commonly reported that liquor
is being sold at various places In the
city in violation of the law. 1t il
criminal for the authorities to over
look these various violations. II Is
asserted that some of the officers have
been drinking in these places. If this
Is is SO i've hope it Is mott, steps should
be taken to prosecute the officers at
once. II the law is not good one and
can not he enforced, the sooner it is
found out the better it will be for all
concerned. 1t is certain that II will
never be found out whether the law Is
a good one or not, II the officers are In
league with the offenders. As has
been said many a time before, q law
that is not enforced Is worse than no
law at all. After repeated prosecutions
II can only be determined whether the
law is Of any account or not.

as all hopes of seeing his fair one that
night had fled. He stumbled along
and reached the inviting porch just in
time to hear the agonizing groan
which betokens the increase of our
race. He was embarrassed, as well he
might be. The object of his journey
and the embarrassing and unexpected
termination of it diverted his train of
thought into another channel. The
boys now call him Doctor.
