The City Council Of Jacksonville held a
special meeting Monday. Owing TO the
failure Of the people to pay their taxes for
1887. the cash is wanting in the City Treas
ury TO pay the interest on the outstanding
sanitary bonds which natures Jan. ID. Al
special meeting of the old City Council
held Thursday last, the Treasurer was
| authorized to negotiate loan Of sufficient
funds TO pay the coupons of the bonds when
| they become due. The meeting of the new
Council Monday was called at the request OF
the old Council, in order that the former
! might indorse the action Of the latter so
rs to further protect the!Treasurer in nego
| tiHting the loan. The failure TO collect
taxes is attributed to the action of the
people in refusing to pay their obligations
to the city, Offering as an excuse the chaotic
condition of municipal affairs and the as
sertiOn that they do not feel justified in
paying the taxes until the matter is adjusted
by the decision of the Supreme Court, when
1t will be determined which government IS
the rightful guardian of the peoples cash.
Mondays meeting Endorsed the action of
Thursday.
Jacksonville Times Union: There is soon
to be moved from Key West, it is said, the
large cigar factory Of Lozano, Pendas q
Co, and as yet the company has not decided
upon a location. whether at Jacksonville or
Tampa. This factory employs regularly
from 80 to 800 persons, who earn large
salaries, as cigarmakers generally do, the
bulk Of which is spent every week in the
city or town in which the factories are
located. As the company is disposed TO
come to jacksonville, would it not
be good idea for the Board of
Trade or some other influential body to
use their efforts TO prevail upon them
to come here and establish their factory.
jacksonville is sadly in need of manufac
turing establishments of all kinds, and the
accession of such an institution As this to the
city would mean an immediate increase i'll
the population of over 900 persons, in
Guiding the Cgarmakers and their families,
and the weekly circulation through the city
of thousands of dollars. A committee of
clgarmakers were out yesterday endeavor
ing to work up an interest in the matter
They think it would be especially desirable
to have the firm come to Jacksonville, for
the reason that, in their Judgment other
large establishments would soon follow, and
ere long the city would become famous for
its cigar factories

THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF CUSTER COUNTY
Wichita eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1886-1890, 1888-08-09
The Toilers Of the Nile.

We are in Nubia. the climate, the differ
ent types of the negro race, their black
skins displayed with lavish disregard Of
dress, all remind US that we are indeed in
Africa, for all about us are the very
scenes we used tn see in the geography
pictures when but children. Myself ma
tive of the south, and familiar with plan
tation life in half dozen different states,
before as well as since the civil war, find
these Africans in their own country par
ticularly interesting study. We have
watched them at their daily toll and far
too often are they made to work night as
well as day, until exhausted nature could
stand no more Their food is lentils; q
grain something like barley, but tasting
more ike the bean A coarse, dry bread,
that well bred dog would not eat at
homo. Sometimes few dates as lux
ury, and this is all We buy sheep now
and then for the boats crew, and they are
as ravenous over it as pack of starving
wolves. The crews of the boats are at
T least decently covered, but with a great
number clothing Is unknown. We see
these people drawing water from the river,
toiling in the fields and laboring in the
great sugar mills of the Nile.
For my part, can truly say that slavery
was not understood by me before visiting
Egypt. In intelligence and responsibility
the average Of these people, not simply
Nubians, but those of Egypt as well,
mean, Of course, the felakeen, do not COM
pare with our plantation negroes. The
alleged cataracts are nothing more than
rapids, not as fine as those above Niagara
falls, nor the Lachine Of the ST. Lawrence.
We descended the lesser one in small
row boat, found it exciting, with perhaps,
spice of danger in 1t. It was good sport
to watch the ebony sons of the desert leap
from the rocky cliff into the seething
waters of the great cataract, then after a
hard struggle, scamper up the steep bank,
and by the dozen, make our ears ring
with the din Of the national motto, back
scheash, backscheash," all in chorus
William Y. HaInlin In Detroit Free Press.
