SECURITY AND PEACE COMING.
The Contractors and County Courts
Arriving at Sensible Agreement
for a Solid Pier.

Bridge excitement still ran high
In the city after the full facts as they
existed were made known In last
evenings JOURNAL, aud the general
sentiment expressed was that the
work should be discontinued until
the proper means Of getting a reliable
pier can be determined. One proni-
inent business man remarked to II
Journal representative this morning
that he was in favor of dumping the
work so far done on the pier slap-dab
into the river aud commencing over
again in accordance with the origi-
nal plans and specifications.
County Judge Waldo was several
miles above Mehama yesterday
when the dispatch reached him, but
he started Immediately and rode
home, arriving during the night.
This morning Judge Stouffer, of
Polk, came ever, as did also Judge
McLench, county commissioner, al
though the latter had no notice Of
any trouble and was here on private
business. Mr.. Adler, who takes
.he place of Mr.. Bates in the firm Of
contractors, also arrived last evening
and was on hand, a very suave and
affable gentleman, and expressing
willingness to meet the demands of
the authorities in every way posi-
BILE.
The above gentlemen, accOmpan-
led by Mayor Williams, ex-County
Judge Shaw, II. w. Cottle, Hon.
Joseph A. Baker, II. 5. Wallace aud
others, again went out and ex-
amined the work, but it seemed a
little difficult to settle on the partic-
ular move necessary, all agreeing,
however, that the pier as now start
cd looked very fiimsy for structure
of such great height and weight.
1t was said by some that instead of
the pier supporting the bridge, the
bridge would have to support the
pier.
This conclusion finally reached, in
which the officers from Polk county
acquiesced, was thatIoutlined in yes
terday's JOURNAL, the construction
Of a crib outside the work now done
and up to "A level of its present
height, making the pier Of the shape
originally designed. re put in this
additional work will involve quite
an expenditure-probabiy $4,000 to
$6000-and will have to be ordered
by the courts of the two counties, so
that no final action can be taken
until a majority of each court can be
brought together. A team was sent
before diuner to Turner to bring
down Commissioner Watson. and if
found at home he is expected this
afternoon.
In the meantime, until definite
official action can be taken, the con-
tractors have stopped work on the
piers, a fact which is hailed with
pleasure by the people.
1t is pleasing to note also that the
contractors show a disposition to
listen to the reasonable demands OF
the people whose money Is going in
to the structure, and in this there is
wisdom, for there is no disposition
here at present to be fooled with.

1t seems to be a fact that, in spite of all
well meant efforts to preserve it, the
obelisk in Central park is crumbling
away. 1t cannot endure our fierce ex-
tremes of climate. Sad is the fate of this
magnificent monolith. 1t has looked
down upon sands and mummies and
dynasties in Egypt for so many centuries
that man does not know the time when
it did not thus look. Apparently it en-
dured all those ages only to be carried
half around the world, to be planted in
park in hard and unsympathetc eli
mate, and then to crumble away to dust
and nothingness before the eyes of an
impudent and needless Yankee republic.

Ibsen.

Ibsen, the Norwegian dramatist, has
really presented something new in his
plays. He has quite departed from the
conventional standard in tracing out the
fortunes of the women in his plays. How
such a writer could please the British
matron is hard to understand. Yet it
seems he has captured British society
completely by his unconventional plays
Taine says that Englishmen and people
of northern race cannot write without
moral purpose. Accordingly Ibsen, true
to his blood, is didactic. When he wrote
first, his dramas We're in exquisitely mu-
steal verse. Evidently, however, he at
length felt trammeled by metrical limi-
tations, for he suddenly discarded verse
and took to prose.
Undoubtedly we shall have his dramas
here ere long. So carefully does he elab-
crate his work that he has written only
seven plays in fifteen years. There is
tremendous tragic power about his
writing, and fire, too. It somehow re-
minds one of a volcano in an Arctic
landscape.
The theme his genius has wrought out
in his later plays is that of the emanci-
pated woman. He takes his heroine,
removes her from all the trammels of
society and conventionality, and then
sees how she will act in given situation.
The theme is fascinating one, and Ibsen
shows himself in favor of the widest
social freedom for women.

The question Of the duty on imported

into fury over it, and farmers have
grown grumpy. It has made and I'M
