IT LOOKS very much as if the council,
in its dealings with Mr.. Dan Freeman.
of the CenUinela rancho, was inspired
by the noble sentiment, "Heads I win,
tails you lose." Mr.. Freeman was first
told that the city would cell the sewage
water to him at lower rate than was
charged for water within the city limits.
At Tuesdays meeting, however, the
best the councilmen would do was to
agree to accept $4 per 100 inches for the
sewage, covering period of twenty-four
hours. The city is now selling pure
water within the city limits at SO per
head of twelve hours daily, and 81 80
per night Of twelve hours. These heads
are estimated, and the actual measure
ment shows that they really amount to
two hundred and forty inches each.
The charter provides that the city can

A GREAT trot, free for all, has been ar
ranged for the race programme of next

all records made this year, on the Cal
ifornia circuit. There ought to be some
thing sensational as result of the coming
together of these equine celebrities. Los
Angeles is at last taking her place as a
racing center. The wonder is, consider
ing the splendid records made by Los
Angeles-bred nags elsewhere, that this
has not occurred before. Better late
than never, however, is wholesome
old adage.

Norwegian Horses.

A traveller in Norway says that the
horses in that country have very sem
sible way of taking their food, which
might be benefcially followed here.
They have bucket of water put down
beside their allowance of hay. 1t is in
teresting to see with what relish they
take a sip of the one and mouthful of
the other alternately, sometimes only
moistening their mouths as rational
being would while eating his dinner of
such dry food. A broken winded horse
is scarcely ever seen in Norway, and the
question is if the mode of feeding has not
something to do with the preservation of
the animals respiratory organs.-Lon-

ticket. In 1880 he voted the Republic
can ticket, and has been a live, active
Worker In that party since that time,
He entered In the army In 1869, and
went to the front in 1888, leaving d
wife and four. little children and an
empty Hour barrel. He served out his
time and was given an honorable dis
charge. just before the close OF the
war he was drafted and would have en-
tered the service had the condition OF
bis family permitted him to do SO.
Consequently he put In substitute, at
a cost TO him and his friends OF $500,
which caused him no little trouble.
Now he has five boys, three In the
far west and two at home, voting the
Republican ticket and SIX more com
ing on, two of whom will vote In 1893.

TOPEKA, Kan, Jan. 11.-Most of the
Alliance members of the Legislature
have arrived, and the majority of thcm
are in favor OF caucus to nominate
a candidate for United States senator.
None OF them will openly oppose this,
but 1t is known that several OF them
will positively refuse to be governed
by the caucus rule. Should they DO
able 10 muster 81 members, which Is q
minority on joint ballot, Ingalls, will
DO defeated without any delay. The
Republicans, however, are confident
that this will be impossible, and that
the election OF a Senator will not be
accomplished for several days after
balloting begins.
No Alliance candidate has sufficient
strength to insure majority OF Alli-
anee members. Should a caucus be
held those already mentioned have
aroused such rivalry that 1t will DO
necessary to nominate an entirely new
man to secure the united support of
the people.
Judge Frank Doster, of Marion
County, has been brought out with
great prominence to-day, and were 1t
not for the fact that he is lawyer, he
would easily get the nomination, but
this fact, in the eyes of many OF the
farmers, makes him ineligible.
