COUNCIL MEETING.

The regular monthly meeting of the
city council was last evening. Owing
to indisposition, Mayor Palmer was alb
sent, and the meeting was presided
over by Vice-President Carney.
A petition from Mr.. John Klein,
praying that property owners on south
side of Jackson, between Front and
Second, be required to bring their side
walks to grade, was granted.
The monthly reports were taken up.
The treasurer's statement showed a
balance in treasury Sept. 1st of 81 ,09l 80.
The chief of police reported thirty ar
rests and thirty convictions for various
misdemeanors during August. Our
police are vigilant and sure, as shown
by the comparison of arrests and con-
victions. The street commissioner ex-
pended $4l7.S5 for street purposes du r
ing the month.
The committee on city property rec
commended the repalnting of the front
of City Hall, and also the bridge across
the Minnesota river. They were au-
thorized to advertise for bids for the
work.
The report of the Health Office r
showed eight deaths to have occurred
during the month of August. The san
itary condition of the city is considered
fair.
Considerable discussion was had over
statement presented by the commit
tee on sidewalks. There are over one
hundred lots in the city that have no
walks adjacent, and some of these in
the most frequented streets of our city.
No action was taken, looking to an i'm
provement of the present condition of
things.
The committee on streets was author
lied to construct bridge across War
ren's creek on Fourth street.
The City Engineer was authorized to
resurvey Lewis street and establish a
center line to the street, there being
some dispute by residents in that vicin-
| ity over the present lines.

The Reriep makes some very err
roneous statements this week in COM
menting upon Prof Parker's speech at
the temperance picnic last Friday. The
Prof. did advocate high license as
something practical and effective when
prohibition is impossible, but he did
not take decided stand against pro-
hibition," but, like many men of good
sense, does not believe in vain en-
deavors to enforce it.. when public SEN
timent is not fully ripe to receive it.
Neither did Mr.. Parker "faunt the
bloody Shirt" as the Recie,c reports, but
simply referred to the imperils and
dangers brought upon the country by
the disloyality Of the South, as parallel
dangers with those which intemper-
ance brings upon us, all of which goes
to show Mr.. Parker's realization of the
magnitude of this evil. His Advocacy
of the election of Blaine and Logan
must be a spurious machination on the
part of some one, for the. speaker made
no reference TO them in his speech.

Mr.. Thornton was declared the NOM

to wait upon the gentleman and APP

He came into the convention room and
made very brief speech in which mar
row guage ideas were numerous, and
he showed unmistakable symptoms of
being a weak man, which he and his
party will be convinced of in the near
future.
Mr.. Foster was called to the floor and
spoke at some length, and a aIeful OBJ
server could not help seeing a marked
difference in the thought in his speech,
and that of the frail nominee. OF the
two men the convention chose the
weaker.

ROME, Dec. 26.-Pope Leo XIII Is indig-
nant over the proposal to erect in Rome
splendid bronze statue of Giordano Bruno,
the Italian philosopher, and the father of
Pantheism, who, after being imprisoned in
Rome for two years, was burned as hereto
in 1900. He is revered as martyr by Athe-
lists all over the world, and a committee has
just been formed in the University of Rome
to raise the proposed monument to his mem
CRY. A site has already been secured in
the Piazza Campo Datiori, and the subacrip-
tons in Rome amount to 10000 liras.
Charles Bradlaugh, the English Freethmker,
has issued an appeal to Atheists throughout
Great Britain to subscribe to the cost of the
statue. The proposal, however, to honor
tie great Pantheist in the very citadel of the
Roman Catholic church has Mortified his
holiness, and he expressed himself with I'M
usual yehemence in a speech which he made
at the vatican upon the subject
