Business Is Good.

1t is a good thing to have all the
business you can do at profitable adj
vantage, and just now the Texas Il
Pacific is in that condition and little
moro so. The staple seems to lie SUI
fering a good deal for the want of
transportation, and coal is wanted all
along the line. On the Transconti-
mental branch of this road cotton is
piled up high, but the Texas Il Pacific
is doing its level best to get hold of it
and send it to market. Business, we
pause to remark, is good.

Union Depot.

The wild and reckless rnmor that
set tho people agog over union de-
pot turns out to be all an hallucination
at least so says the land commission
or of the Gould system. Still, there may
be a little fire where there is a
good deal of smoke, and of course Da!-
las is able to accomplish almost any
thing, consequently Union depot is
among the possibilities.

Am endments to the city Char

Uer.
The subject of amending the city
charter was considered at the meeting
of the city council Saturday night, ana
the fear that too many riders, or
amendments, would jeopardize the
main thing to be ga'ned-the privilege
of borrowing 100000, the matter was
handled with good deal of care
The city attorney announced that the
amendments proposed were not drawn
up yet, but the amendment that would
cause discussion was ready-that OF
clecting the city officers by the city
council. This matter was at once
brought up and upon Mr.. Leob's mo-
ton to reconsider the action OF the
council at its last meeting, dividing

Mr.. Carriers motion to checkmate
was lost. He moved to reconsider the
action of the last meeting in creating
the office Of assessor.
So the proposition Of taking away
from the people the right to vote for
the city officers so far has been de-
feated and will continue to be defeat
ed. The majority ofthe present coun-
Gil is certainly opposed to 1T
To take away from the people
this right and give to them
selves increased power over the
finances of the city, looks to the pao-
ple as if there was a "niggcr in the
wood pile" and the constituency OF
the aldermen are doubtless insisting
that they are going too far and taking
upon themselves more than "honest
men can bear up under, and that the
city offices had better be let alone. The
city council will get the privilege OF
issuing the 100000 bonds. but the
people must say who are to handle
that money. So far the people are
willing to go-no further.

In the suburbs of Washington.

Although the drives in the suburbs of the
Federal city are simply Incompatible, and

Owners of Crotting horses experience no
difficulty in finding good pieces of road
wherein to speed their animals, and there
are tracks, well kept, for members who
subscribe for the privilege of their use.
The most pleasurabe drive is to rise

"Cabin John" bridge, on the Potomac river
bank, some seven miles from the city, this
bridge being celebrated as the longest
single span stone arch in the world.
Mt Vernon is only eighteen miles from
Washington, where strangers are shown
the house and tomb of Washington, register
their names in book, and are feeced in a
small way by relic vendors and pho

Quite a number of so-caIled summering

the principal ones being Marshall Hall,
Colonial Beach, Lower Cedar Point, Black

announced in advance by pimples, blotches,

liquors as a beverage.
Resolved, That the viii OF the people or all
Dakota in favor of division of the territory on
an east and west line has been so clearly
and so frequently expressed during the past
fifteen years. that there is no reasonable
doubt of the determined purpose of a large
majority to hold on Steadfastly till this Iur-
pose is accomplished and we earnestly ask
congress to pass such measure without de-

Resolved That we heartily believe in the
legality of the movement Of the people OF
South Dakota TO organize a state government,
