Council Meeting.

The regular meeting Of the city
council was held last Saturday even
ling.
The committee appointed 70 inves'
tigato the matter OF constructing Z
sewer along Atlantic avenue made y
partialreport. Nothaving ascertained
the exact cost Of the tile the committee
could not make a full and complete
report, and asked for further time,
which was granted.
The committee presented an outline
map, made by Surveyor Wheaton,
showing the course of the sewer. And
also stated that the length Of the sew
er would be $500 feet, and that the
northern portion OF the sewer would
be 8 feet deep, and would vary from
that depth to five feet at the lower
end. It was estimated that the exca-
vations for the sewer would cost $3.50,
but 1t Is probable that it can be done
for less money.
The fall in the sewer will be inches
to 100 feet.
As soon as the COMMITTEES Is ready
to make complete report special
meeting of theconncil will be called to
receive the report and take further
action in relation to the construction
of the sewer.
The following bills were audited,
allowed, and orders drawn for the

Inducements. /"

We were d good deal amused and
interested Il few days since IN listening
to ]. ID. Goods description Of early
times in Stevens county. When he
came here nineteen years ago there
! were no bridges, no railroads and
scarcely any wagon roads, settlers few
| and far between, no markets IN which
| to buy the accessories OF life, post
offices half dozen miles distantfrom
| the nearest settler, churches and
school houses were no where to be
seen, and as for carriages, there was
ut that time only one buggy In the
town Of Morris. and II any one was
seen driving span Of horses attached
to prairie wagon OF recent manu-
facture he was accused of putting on
style.'' And then Mr.. q. related
some of his "hair-breadth 'scapes' In
fordlng the Chippewa river and other
other streams and Of the nice time he
had for four or five hours in getting
his horses out of s'the soup,n and OF
another time while attempting to
cross the river on the ice on horseback.
the ice broke, the horse fell and such
time rs he had in getting him out.
as the horse had fallen on him and
refused to make an effort to get up.
Good was in the water nearly up to
his eyes and had to keep his mouth
shut or take in more water than he
cared to imblbe at that time. Finally
J. d. bethought himself of his pocket
knife, and managed to take 1t from
his pocket and open it with his teeth
then lie applied it vigorously to the
rear part of his horse, which caused
the animal to "get up and getn and
released Good from his perilous
position. "That.n said Mr.. g., was
about the closest call / ever had water
is all we'll enough in its place, but l
had too much of it that time" After
relating various other incidents OF
early times in the county, which other
pioneers like himself went through,
Mr.. Good said; "Now, then, after
we have gone through all these hard
ships and assisted in opening up this
splendid country to settlers, | am
asked, whenever / attempt to induce
eastern men to come here and make
it their homes, What inducements
can you offer us?' Good heavens!
Look at the country, with its railways,
It's wagon roads, its bridges, its school
houses, its churches, Its markets. and
all the privileges of an old settled
country, with the finest land for agri-
cultural purposes IN the world spread
out before them, which can be had at
prices so low that no one can object,
with the most healthful climate on
the continent, and then ask what in |
dueements we can offer to settlers
If these are not inducements, / would
like to know what you would call
inducements.
Correct you are, J.. d. The man
who wants new home, and can't see
sufficient inducements to cause him to |
settle here in our county, couldn't be
induced to settle anywhere in the
great west, and better remain in some |
two-penny, straight jacket, Puritan
ical eastern village or town, where the
views and habits of the people are too
narrow and contracted to take in or
enjoy the enlarged views and freedom
of the great west.

IBr TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE. !


Washington Nov. 4.-The International Marine
Conference did fine stroke of work to-day. and
the faces of the British delegates, VINO are anxious
to spend Christmas at home, visibly frightened
as amendment after metdment was adopted re-
jected or withdrawn. IL is true that there was
pretty long discussion on one of the German
amendments, but at last the delegates, who had
fought long and hard for postponement surren-
dered, and the Britishers. who had begun to show
signs Of gloom, became cheerful again. 1t is evil
dent that the instructions which bound them to
consider only the propositions contained IN the
first and third of the general divisions set forth
in the official programme of the Department of
State have not been widened as yet, and probably
will not be widened at all.
The reports of the committees Lights Sound
Signals, and Systems and Devices show that the
members of each Of those committees have been
extremely industrious, and have given to their
work a degree of intelligent study which will
he likely to produce conservative and salts
factory results. In other words they will not be
likely to attempt completely to revolutionize
system of marine regulations and customs, most
of which have been in existence and every day
use by mariners during a period OF forty years;
nor will the Conference recommend new system,
which, even if embodied in legislation, would soon
be found impracticable and unsatisfactory: Ihe
action of the Conference to-day on the subject OF
new committees indicates that the deslrablllty OF
a more minute subdivision of duties Is fully
appreciated.
