The Water Works Site.

| The action Of the city council in exchang-
ing Springfield plantation property, con-
tanning twelve acres. which had been
selected for the site Of the new water works
plant, for a tract containing nine acres. that
is further away from the city, was some
thing Of surprise. The water works COM
mittee, after inspecting the two tracts, de-
cided that the tract containing nine acres
was moro desirable for the city's purposes
than the Springfield plantation property.
1t may be that the decision is a correct one,
but is not the Springfield property worth a
great deal more than the tract for which it
has been exchangedi
The Springfield plantation property con-
tains three more acres than the other tract,
and. besides, it is nearer the city. There is
not much doubt that il it were divided into
lots it could be sold for a great deal more
than could be obtained for the tract for
which it he's been exchanged.
Would it not, therefore, have been wiser
to have sold the Springfield plantation prop
erty and bought the otherl Would not the
city have saved considerable money by
doing so! Alderman Meldrim apparently
thinks so.
And is there any very great advantage
to be gained by the exchanged There is
already large artesian we'll on the Spring
field plantation property which cost the city
considerable money. Is that well to be
abandoned and the money spent in sinking
it losts
And has the fact been taken into consid-
GRAFTON that it will cost great deal more to
force the water into the city from the site
that has been secured than it would from
the Springfield plantation site2 And this
extra cost would be an everlasting tax upon
the people. 1t is pretty safe to estimate
this additional cost at several thousands
dollars year.
While the action Of the council may be
for the best interest Of the city it does not
seem to be from the statement of the rea-
sons which led to the exchange. 1t is true
that those who valued the two properties,
and decided that the city would be the
gamer by the exchange, were acting for the
city, but may not the conclusion they
reached be an erroneous one7

The Goat Question.

The majority of the members of the city
council appear to be afraid to take serious
view of the goat question. Whenever it is
brought before them they treat it lightly, as
If it were Of little consequence, and refuse to
enact an ordinance that would abolish the
goat nuisance.
1t is true that the goat is quite factor in
city politics. So was the Sunday saloon
until after the present mayor came into
Office. He has the backbone to enforce the
law which requires dram shops to close on
Sunday. and quiet Sundays are the rule
now. 1t is not probable that the Sunday
saloon will play an important part in NUM-
cipal politics again.
The goat nuisance is one of long standing
The people endured it without much COM
plant until the work Of identifying the
city was commenced. But when thew began
to plant trees in front Of their homes, re-
move the walls which hid their flower gar.
dens and take pride in improving the un-
paved portion Of the sidewalks in front of
their residences they wanted the goat nuis-
anoe abolished.
The streets and squares are not intended
as pasture grounds for goats. If there are
people who insist upon owning goats let
them keep them in their yards or hire past
ures for them. There is really stronger
reason for keeping goats out of the
streets than for keeping horses and cows
out of them. because they do more damage
to flowers, shrubbery and young trees, and
yet if the owners of horses and COWS should
turn their cattle into the streets the city
council would be heard from at once
Not long ago a gentleman stated that
the goats had destroyed at least 800 worth
Of young trees that were in front of his
houses There are many other sufferers
from the goat nuisance and public senti-
ment is crystallizing against it. The time
may be close at hand when city politicians
will find IL more to their advantage to cul-
tivate the sentiment against goats rather
than that in favor of them.
But is it not rather unfortunate condi-
ton Of affairs that the city authorities will
not attempt to abate what is known to be a
nuisance until public indignation forces
them to do so! There is no doubt that the
goat is nuisance. The city marshal has
brought to the attention OF the council the
complaints he receives of the depredations
the goat commits. The council therefore
has no excuse for its refusal to withdraw
from the goat the freedom Of the city, and
thus give the public the protection against
him 10 which IL is entitled.

kiss he took and a backward look
And her heart grew suddenly lighter;
A trif1e, you say, to color a day,
Yet the dull gray morn seemed brighter;
For hearts are such that tender touch
May Danish a look of sadness.
A small, slight thing can make us sing,
But a frown will check our gladness.
The cheeriest ray along our way
Is the little act of kindness:
And the keenest sting some careless thing
That was done in a moment of blindness
We can bravely face life In q home where strife
No foothoId can discover
And be lovers still. if we only will,
Though youths bright days are over.
All, sharp as swords cut the unkind words,
That are far beyond recalling;
When face lies hid meath coffin lid
And bittor tears are falling,
We tain would give half the lives we live
To undo our idle scorning;
Then let us not miss the smile and kiss
When we part in the light Of morning.
