NOW, rs 10 tue OLneE point. mr. Ou6W
says the eastern scale does not run dozen,
while ours does. He might have added
that it does not run up either, as ours
does. When our price advances our nail.
ers wages advance with it; when the
eastern price advances the eastern mailer
must ask for an advance, or strike for it,
ss the case may be. Our scale is the
tairest one ever made on earth, and Mr..
Chew knows it If the price advances to
$500, our nsilers would get 24c for l0d
without even asking for it. 1t is his By
right of agreement and he would get it
without ar effort on his part. If prices
decline to $l75, he would get loo more
than is paid anywhere in the east today,
with price as high as So 90. Some OF
our nsilsrs fear that because our scale
runs down to l2c for cutting, and SLIGO
for l0d nails, that our price will 90 down
to 81 90. That low figure can nteer be
reached, as little reflection will convince
them. Steel slabs cost our mills $29 90
per ton nov, which is Sl.45 per keg with.
out any labor npon it. Add TO $40. 90
the cost of heating, rolling, shesring. tend
ing, pslhng, packing, cost OF package,
waste, wear and tear, expense and other
incidentsls, and then see what nails cost.
True, we may be able to manufacture steel
for less but to do so we must invest $780,
900 or $500, 900 more in our works, max.
ing it necessary for Us to earn $4,000 or
SIS, 0G0 more per snnum in order that we
may be able to pay our stockholders simple
interest for the use Of their money. Il
wish the nsilers would be convinced that
our manufacturers are not trying to ipjure
them, but are only endsaVoEing to honestly
administer the trust repossd in them BY
the stockholders-those who Orn our fac
tories. wish l coull say something that
would awaken in our nailers a pride of To-
cslty; something that would convince
them OF the necessity Of making small
sacrifice in order that Wheeling may re-
tam her prestige in the nail market of the |
world. 0BsERvER.

Mr.. Beecher, probably the greatest o
preachers, 10 this pamphlet gives HE series
Of eight sermons, preached last summer

and as believer in the evolutionary phil

at it from . Christian standpoint
Mr.. Bs6eher may be considered
rather loose and cratic in bis doctrines
and while the reader may find fault with
bis reasoning, and not sgres with his con
illusions, yet no one will deny that he has
expressed himself in an able and eloquent
manner. The Sermons viii be read by oil

tage, however, is durability. 1t is the easlest
of all to open for the purpose OF sinking
water or other connections, and the COM
pany holds itself in readiness to relay 1t as
good as new at the actual cost for doing the
work.
Engineer Rinker explained that the pave
ment could only be changed from granite to
the Kerr upon the expressed wish OF the
abutting property owners. The cost OF lay
ing the granite is $2.O9 per square yard,
and there is of the whole only about sixteen
hundred yards that can be assessed, owing
to the railway frontage. The difference on
the assessable property will be about 81, OS9
and the difference Oh the two blocks will be
about ST. 500.

in case the consent of the property owners
can be secured, be paid from the permanent

AID. wALsH,s REsOLUTION.
City Contractors Must Pay Laborers
at Least S1.5O Per Day.

City Contractors Must Pay LabOrefs
at Least S1.5O Per Day.
Yesterday afternoon a meeting was held
in the city hall by the special committee
from the city council, to whom had been re-
ferred the matter of the resolution intro
duced in the council by Aid. Walsh at the
last meeting, to the effect that 1t be the
sense of the council that no contracts be
awarded contractors for public improve
mentS during the year 1856 unless 1t be with
the explicit understanding that such con-
tractor shall pay each laborer in his employ
at least S1.50 per day as wages. AID.
Walsh stated his reasons quite clearly for
introducing the resolution at this time. He
said that soon the city will advertise for
proposals for building sewers, putting down
water mains, building bridges, laying pave
ments, putting in curb and gutter stones,
building additional engine and hose houses
ETC., and if the resolution is early adopted
no contractors can complain that had they
known of the desire of the council to pay
competent wages to laborers they would
not have made their bids so low. In other
words. each contractor may know upon
lust what basis to figure the cost Of prose-
cutting public improvements ordered by the
city.
The resolution was adopted, and will be
recommended to the city council at the
regular meeting tomorrow evening. 1t is
not expected that it will pass without some
opposition of certain alderman who are,
perhaps on economical grounds only, natur-
ally opposed to the principle. Yet
there is little doubt expressed that the
measure will obtain. 1t is certain to re-
ceive the vote of every Democratic alder
man, and there are enough broad-minded
Republicans in the council to carry the

The third exhibition by the Minneapolis
Art club will be given the public this even
ing at their rooms in Peters art gallery and
will be continued throughout the week
The ambition of the artists is not in the
way of numbers of pictures to be shown,
but rather to impress the public with the
perfection, variety and finish of domestic
art, and to cultivate study and love of the
subject generally. This exhibit is quite at
tractive and will well repay visit. The
center, opposite the door, is occupied by
Corners Minnesota Sunset, to the right
being his portrait OF c. II. Warren of St.
Paul, and to the left figure piece by De
Guernon, and several studies in oil by Mrs.
Dinchterbauch. The left center is land
Scape by De Guernon, showing a view in
East Minneapolis and surrounding, in an
artistic arrangement, are fruit pieces by
Mrs. Manly, flowers by Mrs. A. NJ. West, a
life sketch by Conner and sunset by Mrs.
Robson. The center of the right wall is a
child's head by De Guernon, with marines
by Lund on either side, the surrounding
space being filled in by small paintings by
Miss Robson, Mrs. Maggie, Mrs. West and
Mrs. Manly. The back of the room is re-
served for work in black and white and
special studies in colors.
In point of numbers the exhibit is small,
but this is more than atoned for in unusual
merit. The work is all creditable and will
be appreciated by the public.

The Council Committee Consider
Claims. Steam-Heating, Etc.

The Council Committee COnsioers
Claims. STRENGTHENING, Etc.
The first matter of Importance brought
before the council committee on flre dc.
partment yesterday, was the claim OF
Ed Wilcox of $500 for hack
damaged in collision with the Hayes
truck of the fire department three weeks ago
on Washington avenue. Inc claim was
$500. The hack had been taken mmedl-
ately after the accident 10 car
rage shop on Main street 1or re-
pairs. While there the shop burned
and the carriage was destroyed. MI. WI
cox horses had also been injured IN the
collision. After short discussion the COM
mittee decided to allow $500, which the
claimant accepted.
I,ouis Bella owned the other hack dam
aged in the collision. He presented claim
not only for repairing the carriage, but for
loss of time. No action was taken.
The pay roll and usual budget of bills
were audited and turned over to the COM
mittee on claims.
1t was decided to put the steam-heating
apparatus recently taken out of the city
nall into Cataract engine house on the East
side as an experiment in Difference to the
recommendation and wish of Chief Stetson,
and proposals will be asked for On that
basis.
Respecting the claim of DR.. Mitchell OF
$3.50 for a carriage demolished by hose
carriage on Hawthorne avenue it was de-
cded that Aid. Clough and BarrowS should
inspect the carriage and estimate its pres
emit value, as well as the cost of repairing
the same. Stark & Darrow had offered
only S25 for it, which amount is considered
entirely too small to be entertained.
The committee will recommend to the
council that the new Oak Lake engine house
be at once thoroughly fitted up and furnished
throughout, and the bill for the same was
