Fled to Escape the Consequences.

William Moylan, shift boss OF the Moan
tain Consolidated mine, who kicked and
beat Mike Smith nearly to death the night
before election, at the Centerville billiard
hall, is said to have left the town. Smiths
arm was broken in three places, he was
otherwise badly bruised and at the present
time lies in q dangerous condition at the
hospital. The turn for the worse in Smiths
condition is said to be the cause OF Moy-
lan's disappearance. No complaint was
made ct the time, Moylan was o arrested
and consequently no bonds were taken.

In order to relieve the present condition
of the fire fund your committee recon-
mends that the sum Of $4,000 be appro-
priated out OF the general fund to the fire
fund. This appropriation shall be in the
nature of q loan to the fire fund, which can
be repaid to the general fund when the pro-
ceeds OF the special fire and water tax come
into the treasury.
Your committee finds upon investigation
that the present emptine 8 OF the city
treasury rebounds to the injury of the en-
ployes OF the city, and to the great
advantage OF the class Of persons
who take advantage OF the hard
ships and necessities OF the employees
of the city to di count the warrants in
which such employees are paid at rates OF
discount which would astonish even the
hungriest money shark Of Wall street.
City employees are paid in city warrants,
and city warrants are not paid by the city
treasurer upon presentation, but are reg
istered by that oficerfor payment at some
future time. The day laborers on the
streets and alleys must have their money
promptly or they cannot live. These
money loaners taxi advantage oil their
pow -rty and buy their warrants at fancy
rates OF discount. Theday laborers lose
the results OF their labor and the war
amt buyers grow rich at the expense
of those whom the city hires. To relieve
the crying injustice to city employees we
would respectfully recommend that some
Arrangement be made with one or more oil
the banking houses of the city whereby the
city treasurer would have the right to
draw checks on such bank or banks to pay
kany warrants presented, the treasurer
depositing the warrants SO paid with such
hank or banks, and the banks charging a
reasonable rate OF interest upon the over
draft. All city warrants when registered
draw interest at the rate OF z per cent.
until paid. The additional interest upon
the overd aft, making about IL per cent.
per annum upon all warrants paid in the
manner suggested, would be but a small
EXPENSE to tae city when the benefit to city
employees is taken into consideration.
Very respectfully,
Fl. MUELLER,
Chairman.
G. W. GooDALE,
Committee.
On motion OF Alderman Pinkham the

State immigration Association.

The fact must be plain to all that since
it's beginning the Louisiana State Immi-
grafton Association, with its office at 1853
Common street, this city, has been the
most active agent in bringing new settlers
to our State, in turning the attention of
people in other sections to the advantages
offered by Louisiana as home, and in de-
vising new and practical measures to add
to our population from near and far.
The plans formulated by the office of the
association, and carried out by the imni
grafton agents appointed by it to gather
recruits in the Northwest for the army of
immigrants destined for Louisiana, have,
thanks, in large degree, to the co-opera
tive of substantial good. Many of the
people who have been induced to come to
Louisiana either as actual settlers or as
prospectors and home seekers. Generally,
the prospector becomes, in the end, and
when he has visited almost any one of our
many attractive and fruitful sections of the
State, purchaser of land and citiz'1 of
Louisiana. And inasmuch as for every actu-
ual addition to our population thus obtained
many OGucfS mdy U0 Iclltd oA W ioilow,
the work of the association SO far has
been, as it were, cumulative, and will bear
interest in the future.
AS the system adopted by the association
of sending it's agents into the Northwest
becomes broadened by experience and the
course of time, the good results become
more apparent. What was in the begin
ming tentative plan has proved to be just
the thing. 1t is not uncommon, at the
present stage of the associations labors in
this direction, to note the arrival of parties
of from 100 to $50, men, women and child
rem, who have been brought from the
Northwest by the immigration agents to
select homes in Louisiana. These people
belong to moral, industrious, well to do
class. They come not as consumers merely,
but as producerscwho by their industrious
habits and good agricultural training,
will add to the material riches of the State,
and by their examples of morality, give tone
to their communities which they establish
or in which they may settle.-South IAus-
trdted.
