At Rest.

Last evening, Just before sunset, the
mortal remains of little Pearl, the infant
daughter of Major II. and Mrs. V. s.
Glafcke, were laid to rest in the cemetery
on the hill. Her angel spirit took its up
ward fight more than a year ago, and the
clay has since awaited its return to mother
earth. Like a bright sunbeam she tarried
only a short time; she was the pet of the
flock, but too o 0 taken hence. Her
presence among her kindred, if only for a
few months, has made the world brighter
to them by the precious memory she has
left behind.

SUSPICIOUS.
A Bull Swallows a Wire. which Causes
Pneumonia.

-
One of the bulls owned by j. w. Smith,
which recently arrived from Boone county,
Mo-. has been sick for some time past.
The territorial veterinary examined the
animal and pronounced the disease pneu-
monia, but not pleuro- pneumonia. Yes
terday the disease assumed a somewhat
serious nature and the veterinary thought
it best that the animal should be killed in
order that an autopsy could be made and
the true condition of the malady discov-
cred. The animal was then killed. the
lungs removed, and it was ascertained
that the animal was suffering from pneu-
monia. occasioned by a wound received.
Some time since the animal swallowed a
piece of wire, which lodged in its stomach,
worked its way through one of the lungs,
thus causing the sickness. The lung was
removed, with the wire still in il, and
was taken to the Office of DIR. Hopkins,
where it now remains. The symptoms of
the animal were exceedingly suspicious,
but the autopsy reveals the fact that the
disease is not contagious and there is no
fear to be entertained from it. In fact,
pneumonia was occasioned by the wire
which the beast swallowed, and that is all
there is in it.

WHATS The MATTER !
A Hitch Somewhere in Regard ia
Locating Land,
For which a Number of Parties
have Secured Titles.
The Assessor Gives Some lnforma-
ton in Respect TO it.

There is considerable of speculation at
present 10 regard to the county assessment
now being made by Assessor Jeffrey.
In the first place two districts have
been organized out of this county for
school purposes, thus reducing the assess
able property in the neighborhood of a
million and a half of dollars. This
will make the taxes much larger, say
the citizens, and they are eminently cor
rect, unless the increase in taxable prop
erty is sufficient to meet the deficiency,
or a higher value is placed upon personal
and real property.
Now, the question is simply this AS
SCISSOR Jeffrey started out some time since,
to levy the assessments for the ensuing
year Before starting he waited upon
the land office at this city and requested
plats of townships, showing the patented
land in this county, in order that this
land might be assessed, and a revenue de-
rived from it for the county. He ordered
the plats forwarded to him at Fort Lar
annie, which was done, and the assessor
at once commenced examining item, to
ascertain what was and what was not
patented land.
HIS surprise was great. Not one-half
Of the land, for which parties have recent
ly acquired a title, wa to be found upon
these plats, and consequently the assess
ments could not be made. He scanned
the plats closely, and found that many
titles obtained from the government, to
his own personal knowledge, but still they
could not be found upon the plats fur
nished him by the land department.
The next question that presented itself
was, how are these lands to be assessed2
The entries were not on record, and the
assessor could do nothing whatever in the
premises, and as a consequence, the efanty
is the lOoser, through the lar.i Office at
this city or at Washington.
The officers of the land Office at this
city say that they furnished the assessor
with all the records they have in their of
fce' and If there are any more patents,
except those on the plats furnished the
assessor, they do not know it, and 1t is no
fault of theirs. The assessor says if a
person was to go to the county clerks of
flee and ask for an abstract of a piece of
property, and the clerk should say, we
cannot furnish you with it, as u records
are not complete, there would be a wall
go up that would reach from one
end of the territory to the other, and the
citizens or public would say, and truly
too, that the office was not conducted
properly and that it was the business of
the officer to have his records in such a

Other Matters.
New Ordinances introduced and
Bills Allowed.

The city couneil met last evening in the
council chambers, and was called to order
soon afters o'clock by Mayor Reel. The
following councilmen were present: ORA

unsafe condition.

councilman Draper, OF the street and
alley committee, asked further time to
report.
Mayor Reel thought the fire depart
ment needed some encouragement, and
favored fixing the necessary fire alarms in
the city, so that the department would
know the exact location at a moments
notice in case OF an outbreak of fire.
Mr.. Reed thought the matter should be
investigated and hat they had better 20.
slow and thoroughly understand the sys-
TEN.
Alderman Riner thought it was neces
sary that an alarm be had at once, as it
was absolutely necessary for the protection
of the city. 1t was something that should
be attended TO at once.
Councilman Riner moved that the com
mite have plans and specifications drawn
up and advertise for bids for alarms, and
they be considered by the council at the
regular meeting on June l6. Carried.
Mayor Reel said that the city engineer
had looked over the northeast corner of
section 80, owned by the city, and by tax
ing twenty-five acres off of the northeast
corner, they could have an excellent
dump ground, which would be removed
from everyone. 1t is located one mile
east of the Catholic cemetery. He furth-
er stated hat I. r. Barn said he would
sell twenty-five acres off his land for a
dump ground, and would sell it cheap
Councilman Riner made a report of he
plat Of the city, but upon molten it was
laid over until the next meeting.
The report of the committee on salaries
will be simply to change the figures of the
ordinance in relation to the city clerk sal
airy, changing it from 500 to 81, 200. The
report, upon motion, was referred until
the next meeting.
Councilman Draper introduced an ordi-
nance in relation to pawnbrokers. The
ordinance provides that each one dealing
as such shall pay a license of $40 per
quarter. The ordinance makes it the
duty Of brokers TO keep a record of all
goods, wares, personal property, bonds,
notes or chattle that may be secured, and
also not to purchase or receive such from
minors. For a failure to comply with the
ordinance a fine of not less than $25 nor
more than 800, upon conviction, has
been provided. The book kept is to be
open for inspection at all times to the
mayor, president of the council, marshal
and police officers, and its object is to
more readily detect petty crimes. 1t was
laid over under the rules.
Councilman Keefe introduced an ordi-
nance in relation to license. 1t provides
for a license of SIS per quarter for shoot-
ing galleries, and for a failure to procure
a license, makes the penalty a fine of not
less than S. nor more than $50. The
rules were suspended, and the ordinance
placed upon its final passage.
No further business coming before the
council, upon motion they adjourned.

case of the Albion Con. Mining Company
vs.. the Richmond Mining Company OF Ne
vada on appeal to the Supreme Court OF
Nevada was not in ell respects correct,
The attorneys for the Richmond Company

trial. The motion was granted and the
afidavits were stricken out. The Court
did not take the question under advise
ment, as stated in the telegram. Counsel
for the Albion Company moved the Court
to remand the case to the District Court
in order to have the afidavits properly
identified, and this question was taken
under advisement. The case is one Of alb

Some Elementary Facts for TN
Gold Bugs 60 Consider.

Some Elementary Facts for th'
Gold Bugs TO Consider.
The New York bankers cannot fnt
words to express their detestation of 81
silver dollar worth only eighty-five CENTS
and one furious advocate OF gold as the
only metal money goes so far as to say
that "a Government that will stamp
eighty cents as a dollar is rascally to the
core, and the quicker il sinks the better"
This suggests the question, what IL a
dollar? Worcester says: Dollar "A
silver coin of Germany, Holland, Spain,
the United States, Mexico, etc. Of different
values; that OF the United States dollar
Is 100 cents" And all other dictionaries
give the word the same meaning silver
coin Of the United States worth 100 cents.
Il is asserted that silver Is cheaper than it
once was, and the silver dollar 10 not
worth nov 100 cents. But this is not
true. and cannot be true. The dollar ex-
listed before the GENT. The silver dollar
was the first coin issued by the United
States, In 1890. The cent was not coined
until several years afterwards, and the gold
dollar not till fifty years afterwards. The
word dollar therefore. originally meant
and still means, o silver coin worth 100
cents, n this meaning has become 80
deeply imbedded in the popular mind, and
In the habits OF business, that ii cannot be
rooted out. The silver dollar ia our unit
Of money. All coins below IL are null
tiples of IL. Gold eagles and half-esgles
we're coined after the silver dollar, and
were meant, respectively, worth Ten and
five silver dollars. Eagles and hslf-eagles
were intended to be measured by the gold
dollar-for the very reason that when they
we're first coined the gold dollar was not
10 existence; 1t had not even been thought
Of.
Silver has never been d~emonesized In
this country. The coinage OF 1t was sus-
pended from 1873 to 1878-but that was
all. Even during this five years period
silver was still a legal tender for all debts,
public and private. The present silver
law did not receive the money quality Of
the silver dollar; il only received the coin
age OF il. There has never been q day,
nor an hour since 1890 when silver dollars
we're not worth 100 cents and payable as
lawful tender for all debts. public and
private, in the United States.
The lawful value OF the silver dollar has
never changed, and never will. It was
at the beginning, and it is now. just 100
cents exactly. 1t Is gold that has changed
its relative value. It has become com
paratively scarce in proportion TO the
enormous increase Of wealth in the world
and this scarcity, together with the
demonstration OF silver in Great Britain
and Germany, has given IL an increased
artificial value.-Missouri Republican.

Jumping Water Rights.

thereon have been the property of the
Eberhardt Company since 1870. The
company gave q good, round sum for their
water rights. and 1t seems to us very
strange that they should not have com
piled with all the laws governing such
rights. This. of course, they must have
failed to do, or there would be no show
for the Jumpers" to get away with the
spring. Not having heard the full partic.

we do so, with simply expressing the
opinion that we fear the litigation which ID
certain to result will prove unfortunate to
the best interests of the people Of Hamil
