1, although bad weather may materially alter
these conditions.
The Omaha club Is getting more crowded
as tho days shorten and tho members are
longing for their new club house which
everybody hopes will be built at eighteenth
aud Douglas. The delay In closing the pur-
chase Of the Davis property Is due TO several
minor heirs. But this difficulty will doubt
less be overcome and ground will undoubt-
edly be broken next spring for the handsom-
est club house in the country. The members
are determined TO make the place second TO
none.
Now that the grill room has been opened
again in the Elks club, there is a notable i'm
provement in tho attendance. Old faces not
seen in a year or more are coming back and
the French pool games at . o'clock are at
tracing lovers of that delightful sport.
Club life In this city has again awakened
from its usual summer lethargy and the cluO

turns from the long vacation and
crosses the threshold to greet old friends or
TO make the acquaintance of new ones at the
club.
And pleasant times these are, notwith-
standing the fact that "Mr. Brown" in his
letters to "a Young Man About Town."

WINANS' BLUNDER.

In reply to a correspondent, who crit
icised Governor Winans neglect to APP
point ''well-equipped resident of the
Upper Peninsula" on the State Worlds
Fair commission, the Marquette Mining
Journal unreservcdly concurs in the
criticism and says further: at is all
the more to be regretted inasmuch as
1t will be very apt to have effect to ma
terially curtail the EXHIBIT from this De.
ninsula, which could easily be made
the most interesting part of Mchigan's
showing at the great exposition. The
copper and iron and gold and silver
mines of the Upper Peninsula; its qnar-
ries of white. brown, red and varle-
gated sandstone, of granite and marble
and slate: Its forests OF pine aod cedar
and rare varieties of hardwood, could
furnish q most unique and interesting
feature of the States exhibit, were the
people here given any encouragement
To get up creditable showing of the
the peninsula. But instead of being en-
couraged to assist in making Michigan's
exhibit as large and compete As posi-
bic, Governor Winans has saId to us, by
his action in not placing n single repre-
sentative OF the Upper Peninsula on the
commission, that the administration
now in charge of the State government
does not care to have the products of
this part of Michigan shown or it's
resources advertised at the Columbian
exposition. Mlchigan's exhibit is to

WHENCE THESE TEARS:

Yesterday mornings issue OF the
Democrat contained tue following:
BY the decision of the Supreme Court
the Common Council, anG not the
Board OF Public Works, Is to be the
judge of the materials TO be used IN
street improvements. One hy one.
slowly but surely. the opportunities for
the aldermen OF Grand Rapids To in
crease their earthly treasures are pre-
sented. Lighting contracts, land pur-
chases and railway franchises have
long been temptations, and now the
agents OF twenty different paving ma
terlals will have as many aldermen to
see IN the interest of the companies
they represent.
Zone by one, slowly but surely" the
dangers of placing absolute power and
authority in non-elective boards are
being realized by the people. II was
only through multitude Of non-elec-
tive boards that Boss Tweed was able to
saddle millions Of dollars Of indebted
ness upon the city of New York. Only
representatives Of the people, the tax
payers VINO foot the bills, should have
authority on matters relating to the
expenditure OF money. The response
biLty of the agent who spends tho peo-
ple's money should be instant and sure.
Such is the theory of our government
and such the people demand. Such
has in fact been one of the greatest
hobbies of the Democratic party.
What is the matter with the Democrat?
Is it really so much in favor Of Boss
Twced's plan? If so, whose individual
interests is 1t serving-interests that are
liable to be interfered with by the al
dermen?

Tie attack upon the Common Coun-
cil IL made for any other reason is one
of the most wonderful displays OF ig-
norance Witnessed for some time. The
council has very little TO do IN the
matter OF street Improvements. except

Board OF Public Works, as the execu-
tive branch of the eiiy. 10 see that con-
tracts are properly and promptly car
red out. The Democrat has had much
To say about waterloo-st but the record
shows that the Improvements of that
street Was ordered at the meeting of the
council held May Is, or eleven weeks
ago next Monday. More than seventy
days, nearly three months, have
elapsed and yet the contractors have
not turned a spade or made any other
move looking towards the actual im-
provement of the street. Monroe-st
was ordered paved with brick June /,
or two weeks later than Waterloo-st,
but at the same meeting of the council
a resolution was adopted to the effect
that it was the desire of the council that
work on MoDroe-st should begin as
soon AS possible and be completed by
August 25." West Bridgc-st was
ordered paved by the old council
April "a or more ti.an three months
ago. If the Democrat Will point out
way for the council to hurry the work
along, no doubt such suggestion would
be- gladly received and cheerfully acted
upon by that body. Aldermen have
enough to answer for, for which they
are responsible, without shouldering
upon them the sins of the Board of
Public Works and all the contractors of
the city and part of Ohio.
From the analysis of the condition Of
the streets 1t looks as though the Hail.
wood Brick Company were the people,
and about the only people, who are to
blame for the present condition of
things. Let these gentlemen explain,
not alone why they are not now at
work on Monroe-st., but why Waterloo
st. is not finished and Monroe-st. nearly
so. The Democrat should look else
where for cause than to the Common
Council. and If their purpose is to at
tack Mayor Uhl it would be more
manly to do it on q square issue.
