THE PROPOSED BONDS.
Plan Proposed by the Council
Committee.
PUBLIC WORKS TO BE PUSHED.
Meeting OF Both Houses-The Stewart
street Assessment Sewers and
Street Grades Wanted.

ne most important matter brought be-
lore the city council last night was the
presentation of report by the Joint
hhance committee upon the proposition
TO Issue bonds to cover the Indebtedness.
on account OF the special experience of
Ihonas K. Shepard, the committee had
consulted him upon the legal aspect Of the
matter, and at their request he ap-
peared before the council and ex-
planned the PROPOSITION. Its main
features have been frequently discussed,
but the committee have come to the con-
cluslon that the most economical thing
for the city to do, and in the present con-
dition OF labor. is to go ahead with all
necessary water and sewer extension, and
SO give employment to large number of
men IN construction which is very urgent
~ needed. This is especially the case
with sewer work. The tunnels will be
completed within year and the commit
tee think it would be wise to go on at the
same time with the sewer work. so as to be
III position to take advantage of the
tunnels. instead of having them lie idle
another year after they are finished.
Mr.. Shepard pointed out that if the cleo
ton to authorize the bonds Is postponed
until after the general election there will
be new precincts, and the ordinance can
not be passed till after the election, involv-
ing delay of six weeks He proposes to
have the special on the day before the gen.
eral election, and he advises an issue of

Mr.. PECk'S REPORT.


The.report of Commissioner Peck OF
New York, which was recently published,
has undoubtedly received more notice
than any similar document that has been
published for years. Coming as 1t does
in the midst OF n momentous political
campaign and puTporting TO give statistics
in regard to wages and the wage earners
OF New York, IT must OF necessity draw
upon ii the eyes OF the country and to a
greater extent than it otherwise would. 1t
certainly deserves none OF the prominence
that it has obtained. Hardly had the re-
port appeared before the Repub ublican press
OF the country went wild over 1t, while
the Democratic press, on the other hand,
discredited 1t to such an extent that the
honest sesrcher after facts could put no
trust in it whatever. BY this report Com
missioner Peck endeavors to show that
under the Mckinley tariff wages have
been raised to a very considerable extent
In New York. At the same time he gives
us no definite data upon which to arrive
at any such preposterous conclusion and
when he was asked to produce the meterial
from which the report was compiled, alb
solut ely refused to do SO, casting at once
upon the report suspicion and doubt and
the idea that the report had been doctored
for the occasion. 1.-THE data the commits
sioner has in his possession is genuine
why should he hesitate to have it ex.
amined? II looks AS il he was afraid OF
being caught in some detestable piece of
business and preferred to hold his returns
in the back ground.
What is more, the report which he
makes fatty contradicts the statement
OF Senator Aldrich in his tariff speech
before the Senate, and also OF Senator
Carlisle. These gentlemen made an ex-
animation into this very matter OF the in
crease OF wages and had facilities that
were beyond hose Of eny persons making
an examination OF this subject, before
or since. The greatest amount that Sena-
tor Aldrich could figure out was three
fourths OF one per cent. while Senator
Carlisle could get none at all. And yet
here comes that rapscallion of a New
York commissioner and endeavors to
make the people believe that his report
Is correct. You can always tell the true
metal by the ring about it, but this report
has certainly the ring OF counterfeit
OF the very worst sort. As a commissioner
OF statistics, Mr.. Peck has never been
success and his attributing the rise IN
wages In New York to the Mckinley &C,
Is in accordance with some OF his previous
conclusions upon this very important
subject.
Mr.. Peck has made three reports OF
labor in each OF which be announced thai
wages were increased in New York. In
each report he had new theory for thu
cause Of the rise.
In 1880 Mr.. Peck thought that wagei
went up because OF the increasing powel
OF labor organizations.
In 1891 he thought they went up be-
cause OF strikes.
In 1892 he thinks that the Mckinley
act is the cause OF the increase.
II seems from this that the Com
missioner does not know his own mind
any better than he knows figures or

NEWPORT.

The Democrats OF Newport last evening
renominated with great enthusiasm, Hon.
Samuel r. Honey for Mayor for another
year. notwithstanding the new redivi-
sion of wards OF that city, ordered by
Ellery Wilson's Legislature, the conven'
tion ignored it completely and nominated
six Aldermen under the old law.
The present incumbents were renomi-
mated, but Colonel Young and Alderman
Fearing declined and W. 5. Hazard and
Patrick ]. Boyle were elected TO fiji ithe
vacancies. The latter named person Is
now President of the Common council
and was brought into considerable noto-
riety by Wilson q Aliens committee in
the Newport election Investigations.
The Democracy answers those slurs by
nominating him for a higher position.
The Republicans are dumbfounded by the
action OF the Democrats, as they have
made their nominations for only five AL
dermen, and by wards.
The election will be on the iith inst,
and whatever the result, the Supreme
Court will be invoked to settle the matt er
finally.
The Democrats are acting under the
advice OF Mayor Honey, who is as well
informed a lawyer rs there is in the State.
II is well that the Democrats have 30 fear
less a leader and he deserves the entire
and sincere support OF every Demo rat in
Newport.

"A comparison of the results will show
at glance and without further comment,
the standard and average quality of the
ores.
1t is unnecessary to multiply examples
further. For all purposes of comparison
those that are here presented will amply
suffice. An examination of the ANALYSES
here given, of the authenticity of which
there can be no doubt, shows:
l, That the Llano county ores are richer
in metallic iron than those of any of the
Lake Superior regions, the famous Corn
wall ore bank, or the Santiago de Cuba
mines.
2. That the percentage of phosphorus
is exceedingly small, and so far below the
Bessemer limit as to establish beyond doubt
the utility of the ores for steel-making by
the ordinary or acid process.
3. That the value of the Llano county
ores is enhanced by the notable absence Of
sulphur in their composition.
4. That the element of silica enters into
the composition of the ores only in a very
low percentage, which would in no wise
prove detrimental in iron or steel making.
An auction sale of lots will be held during
the month of April. to which all are invited.
In the meantime we solicitit an inspection
of the resources upon which we shall surely
build q city. We especially invite the at
tcntion of the homeseeker and the business
and professional man looking for a more
profitable field, promising them active CO.

The Rock Island.

President Cable of the Rock Island is out
in Colorado prospecting. For what cannot
be definitely stated, but it is supposed that
he is figuring on q further extension toward
the Pacific coast. 1t is quite probable that
he will order some extension, and as
Greece, the new mining camp, is right in
his way, so to speak, an extension TO that
point is not improbable this spring What
gives color to the rumor is that the Eock
Island has a larse party of surveyors in
that vicinity. In an interview Mr. Cable
denied that the road would be extended
toward Creole, and when asked why the
surveyors were down in that country, he
replied:
Well, you know we have TO keep those
fellows busy, so they were sent to Colorado
TO look over the country, and ] suppose
they got the Creole fever and went down
70 survey few mines for themselves and
not in the interest of the company"

Mountain ranges traverse the county. Ly-

valleys, covered with trees, and here and

an area OF about 600,0 acres, comprising
the finest grazing and stock-raising lands
in the state. Until within few years its
population consisted of few herdsmen,
living in their scattered huts, but recently
the county has progressed amazingly in ag

under cultivation. The population, too,
has increased at rapid pace, and now
numbers nearly 10000. Flourishing little
towns have sprung up in various parts of the
county, with churches, schools and all the
comforts of civilization. Nature has be-
slowed her beauty lavishly upon the region,
giving it mild and healthful climate, high
