Morris tribune., 1891-09-02

1t is we'll known that the TRIBUNE
is in favor of IL water works system
which will furnish our citizens with
an abundant supply of pure, whole
some water. Among the first articles
written by us after assuming control
of the TRIBUNE advocated such Il
system and since the application for
Il franchise was made to the city
council by party of gentlemen, resi-
dents of the city. to put in such sys-
tenn of water works, we, after care
fully reading the ordinance granting
that franchise, came out strongly IN
favor of it. AS we stated at the time,
we considered the ordinance fair and
just, both to the city and those asking
the franchise. But it is objected to
on the ground that the city guarantees
too much. We did not see it in that
light, but perhaps amendments have
been made since we read it. One
thing is certain, however. no party of
capitalists possessing an average
amount of common sense are going to
put in water works for us unless the
city pledges itself to patronize those
works. No business men are going
to give us pure water unless we are
willing to pay for it. In the call for
a mass meeting by President Watzke,
which appears in another column, it
is asserted that "a majority of the
common council are attempting to
saddle upon the village of Norris a
debt that the next generation will not
be able to yay;' but the president
fails to state how that "majority'
propose to "saddle that debt upon the
village" AS we understand the ordi-
nance the syndicate of gentlemen
asking the franchise do not ask the
city to pay u cent towards the con-
struction of the water works. They
propose to do that themselves, and
ask the city to pay for the use of
water for eXtinguishing fires and
other purposes. This, us we under
stand it, is all the debt the "majority'
propose to SADDLE upon the village"
We consider that our present city
council is composed of men perfectly
competent to deal with this matter of
water works, and we do not believe
that there is member of that coun-
Gil who would knowingly defraud the
city, and we believe that President
WatZke assumes altogether too much
when he accuses the majority of the
council of such dishonesty. AS for
the gentlemen who are asking for the
franchise, they are among our best
and oldest citizens, and it is shame
and an outrage to insinuate that they
would be parties to a scheme to rob
the city. Surely they are quite us
much interested in the welfare of the
city rs any of those who are crying
out Fraud! Fraud!!'

On Friday last there was a first
class runaway in town. A team Of
horses attached to wagon and hay
rack, took fright near the depot while
the driver was in a freight car, and
run across Atlantic avenue to Steb-
bins & Co.'S corner, then along the
sidewalk on Fifth sereet, knocking
out four of the posts supporting the
porch, but doing no damage to the
large window in the store, the hay
rack barely escaping it by not more
than all inch. 1t is very doubtful if a
careful driver could have driven the
team over the same space without
doing about the same amount of
damage.

To the Tax Payers of the Viii
lage of Morris.

GENTLEMEN Prom present ap.
pearances it would seem that II major.
ity of the common council are
attempting to saddle upon the village
of Morris u debt that the next sener.
alton will not be able to pay.
This debt is to be contracted by
granting to p. A. Mccarthy and
others franchise to erect and main-
tam water works and an electric light
plant, in which franchise the village
agrees to pay enormous sums for the
public use of water and light.
l call upon the citizens of this vii
lage who are in amy degree interested
in the financial condition of the town,
to meet in mass convention ut the
court house hall, on Saturday, Sep
tender 5th, 1891, ut s O'Clock. p. M,

"Castoria is the best remedy for children Of

far distant when mothers will consider the real

Take the linden trees, for instance,
says the New York Ledger, speaking of
long lived trees. One of these is still
standing at the village of Villars-en-
Moing. near the town of Morat. This
was noted tree at the time of the bat
tie between the Swiss and Charles the
Bold, in l476, and the measurements
made by experts show that it was even
then 500 years old. Another linden tree
at Neustadt, in Wurtemberg, can be
proved by extaut documents to have
been considered noteworthy in A. d.
l226. but botanists are able to prove
that its age exceeds eight centuries.
There is chestnut tree at
Tamworth, in England, which was
known as landmark when King Stephen
assembled the throne, in 1875. 1t is ~
feet in circumference, five feet from the
ground, and it must, so it is computed,
long since have celebrated its 1,00Oth
anniversary.
There is still older oak near Saintes,
in France, for this has girth near the
ground of nearly 81 feet. From the
center of this tree to the circumference
have been counted some 2000 concentric
annual rings, which makes it about 20O0
years old. This is, perhaps. the patri-
arch OF the forest of all Europe. There
is, however, a cypress at Sonima, in
Lombardy, AS to which botanists of high
authority are inclined to credit the local
tradition that it was In existence in the
time of Julius Caesar.
