THE cITY's LIGHTING.
Some Changes Suggested That will Lessen
the Expense.

Yesterday afternoon the special COM
mittee met President Wood and
Superintendent Raymond of the
Electric Lighting Co. at the Mayors
office.
1t will be remem bered that at the regu-
lar Novem Der meeting of the City Coun-
Gil, when the contract between the city
and company for the ensuing year came
up for passa ge, Alderman MCGOWAN
thought the price too high, remarking
that at present several Of the depart
ments made contracts with the company
for lighting in addition to the regular
city contract, and that he thought that
all the departments were parts of the
City COVE rnment and that the one con-
tract made by the city should cover all.
He suggested the appointment of a
special committee to inquire into this
matter and it was appointed.
President Wood stated that it would be
impossible for the company to furnish
the lightssany cheaper, that the series
lights, which the company had made
arrangements to furnish the city, had
entalled additional expense. He sug-
gested that q meter be placed in City
Building to indicate the amount of cleo
tricitg used in the building, and that
that amount be pad for, just as gas is
paid for, by measurement 1t, was also
suggested that the engine houses could
be lighted by gas.
A sub committee, composed of Mayor
Baxter, Aldermen Guptill and Tolman,
were appointed to examine into the mat.
ter and report to the full committee at s
meeting to be held at future date.

How he Stands on the Issues before ths
People.

We clip from the Washington Post
the following interview with Judge
John Martin, the newly elected Sem
ato- from Kansas:
In answer to a question as to his
political policy, the new Senator
said Il am a Democrat, vet after
all there are no essential differences
between the principles and policies
of the Peoples party and the Demo
cratic party, as ! understand them.
! will say concerning current poll
tics and the issues which are likely
to divide the people of the country.
| am unconditionally in favor of
tariff reform. | am in favor of tariff
reduction of the most radical charac-
ter. ] would place on the free-list
all raw materials used in building
and the daily consumption of food. !"
''N hat is your policy on the mon
ey question and financial legisla-
tion p
81 am in favor of unconditional
and unlimited coinage of silver as
money and without limitation as to
It's debt-paying power. am op-
posed to national banks or any sys-
tenn which compels or induces a
partnership between private indivi-
duals and the Government"
In regard to taxation he said: 81
am in favor of an income tax in or
der that the wealth of the country
may be compelled to pay its share of
the public burden. What may be
even better system is a graded
property tax, as suggested by Jeffer
son in letter to Hamilton in 1902"
If Senator Martin is Democrat,
then Cleveland is not. The differ
ence between them is greater than
the difference between Harrison and
Cleveland. If the Democratic party
stood where Senator Martin does,
there would be but little need for
the Peoples Party.

BOSH AND TwODDLE.

The following is taken from the
editorial columns of the Richmond
Dispatch. 1t makes us real tired.
If Cleveland should come out to-
morrow say that tariff, silver, pen
sions and all were of small impor-
tance, but that the color and size of
postage stamps was the supreme is
sue, and that nothing else should be
done till that great and important
question was settled, then all the
little politicians and partisan papers
would make haste to cut the tails of
their coats the same length of the
kings. Here is the editorial:
"A New York special to the Gin
cinnati Commercial says that the
Presidsnt-elect has had proclama-
tions issued in his name without
authority, and has consented to them
by silence, if he has not reached ex-
tensive and important determinations
The first is that the great pressing
business question is the silver ques-
tion, and the tariff-reform urgency
is secondary to it.
Another special to the same paper
reads as follows:
Suddenly we hear that Mr.. Cleveland is
saying the tariff-resorm matter is not so
urgent as the silver matter-the paramount
question of the hour is the silver question,
we are told. The ravages of protection and
reciprocity may be endured for a time, but
the borrors of the Shermon law are intolera-
BILE. In this change eff front, rectifcation
of the hne atiank movement, or change of
base? 1t must be a military manoeuver of
some sort"
1t is an illustration of the old
saving that the times change and We
change with them. If Mr.. CLEvE-
LANDS financial theories are founded
in The fact then the silver question
is much more pressing than the tariff
question. IF we are threatened with
a single silver standard then it is
time the President-elect were trying
to ward off the dangerous results of a
sudden fall in the price of silver and
a sudden rise in the price of gold.
Not few customs duties, but hun
dreds of millions of dollars, are in
volved in this matter.

Two Republicans.

Dialogue between two Republi-
cans:
1st Rep.-Old fellow we ought to
feel good. have seen the day I
never expected to come.
End Rep.-How's thatf 1t seems
to be that 1t Is rather bad time for
Republicans.
1st Rep.-Why you know we used
to be the vilest, meanest and most
hated of creatures in the eyes of the
Democratic bosses, but now those
same fellows are treating US as
downright good fellows, while they
look upon those third party fellows
as being meaner than they said We
were.
End Rep.-You are down right
fool Don't you know that the ma
chine politicians always curses those
whom he fears most. They don't
think we ale dangerous any longer,
so they are piling their abuse on the
Populist, and patting you on the
back because they think they may
need your help to beat them. In
stead of feeling good, you haye much
to feel sad over. As for myself the
recent patronizing air of the bosses
is very CALLING and humiliating te
me, / rather envy the Popnlist.
