HOUSE BILL No. IS by Repre-
sentative A. W. Lcnnard provides
for appropriations to the state in
sane asylum at Pueblo as follows;
For 1898, $4,000; for 1894, $40.
900; for new building $72,311, 80;
for completing unfinished buildings,
$2,340; other Improvements. $lS,
535. The overcrowded condition of
the asylum makes it almost CON-
pulsory on the assembly to enlarge
the old building or erect new one
As general thing there are several
unfortunates confined in the county
Jail because there is no room for
them in tue asylum and the accom-
modations being insufficient the
poor inmates have to suffer until
such time as the asylum can turn
out patient to make room for
another. Tho bill should be
enacted into law with but little or
no opposition.

Psunebaker and "aided and abetted"
by Alderman Jones, J. b., the petit
ton was laid on the table, which
means in parliamentary language to
lay on the shelf The council de
clared that it had information to the
effect that the intention of No. was
to burlesque No. l and to reflect on
its official actions which council No.
said WAS out of place. OF course.
Just so. Exactly. Entirely out of
place to investigate the manner in
which the affairs of the city are con
ducted. What boys play! What
foolish argument! Afraid OF being
"burlesqued" us one of the aldermen
declared. The INDIcAoR credits the
council with having better sense
aud believes in common with the
petitioners that it is subterfuge
and used as pretext to shut the
peoples party out anN- injure it to
that extent. This paper knows fair
ly we'll the intention of the peoples
party and no such intention was
ever brought to its knowledge. 1t is
intended as II legitimate, educative
organization and the city council
luade-a mistake when it denied the
party the privileges of the hall. In
justice to Alderman Brennan it
should be stated that he favored the
letting of the hail and that Alder
men Kirk and Jones, ]. E., Were not
present.

THE FAIR.
A Winter in the South.

A winter in the South - the very
words conJure up delicious memories
for those who have been there, The
bright sunny skies, the dry, bracing air
and the warm sunshine is in decided
contrast to the cold bleak north.
TIE great state of Texas is celebra-
ted as one great broad winter resort in
itself. but the following places are, per
haps, particularly popular: Fort Worth,
with its mineral baths. healthful climate
and good hotels; Austin, the beautiful
capital city; San Antonio, one of the
few really historical places IN our coun-
try; Houston, with its blooming roses,
oleanders and groves of oranges and
lemons, and Galveston with its delici-
Gus sea breezes. These are but few
Of the delightful resorts of this highly
favored region.
An escape from all the pains and dis
comforts of our rigorous weather, trau-
spofleu Dy magic from the region oil
snow and ice to the fragrance Of this
summerland, is now made possible and
easy by the Denver, Texas & Fit Worth
branch of the Union Pacific system
which runs through Pullman Palace

Irving Place Cars From Bessemer
Will run on Main Street.

The business men of Main street
waited on Manager H. f. Chubbuck
of the street railway Tuesday last
and asked his consideration of their
petition to have some OF the cars on
the Bessemer line run through Main
street. Heretofore nll the Bessemer
cars ran through Santa Fe avenue
and until now they had made no
protest. After listening to the
arguments Mr.. Chubbuck decided to
make change, and now the Besse-
mer cars bound for Irving Place,
being every third one. switch off at
the Triangle block and run up Main
street. The Irving Place cars leave
Bsssemer every fifteen and forty Ave
minutes past each hour and people
whose destination is on Main street
will naturally take one Of these

WOULDN'T THIS CORK YOU.

Supposed to have been written by the poet
laureate of council No. |.
You may fret and fume but you can't
have the room,
For we know what you have to say,
And we're n son-of-a-gun if we'll take
your fun
Because we aint built that way.
You won't stick to facts but you'll
burlesque our acts,
Aid you would be almighty gay;
But we won't have your chin, and we
won't let you in,
Because we aint built that way.
If you fellows would go back and
turn on your kodak.
Why then, there's the dickens to pay;
We'd all take fall-but you can't
have the hall
Because you aint built that way.
So the pops we will fix for we're on
to their tricks;
Ta-ra-ra- boom de-aye!
Well keep the door locked and well
have their game blocked
Because we are built thar way.

Pueblo County Representatives and
the Committees They are on.

The Pueblo county representatives
have not been sighted in the max
ing up of the committees in the
lower house of the general assembly
as the following will show:
A. w. Lennard is on five commit
tees, viz, judiciary, state affairs and
reapportionment, fees and salaries,
federal elections and temperance,
medical affairs and public health.
He is chairman of the judiciary, the
post of honor in the committees.
Platt Wicks is on six committees,
appropriation, agriculture, elections
and apportionment, corporations
and railroads, rules, and state canals
aud reservoirs. He is chairman of
the committee on elections and
apportionmsnt.
w. G. Slawson is on four commit
tees, those of finance, enrolment,
labor and cities and towns, being
chairman of the committee on
labor.
]. r.. Gordon is on four commit
tees, namely, of state canals and
reservoirs, engrossment, federal
elections and public lands. He is
chairman of the committee FIRST
named.
The county is therefore represent
ed on sixteen COMMITTEES and has no
kick coming. AS much of the I'M
pertinent legislation is settled in
the committee rooms 1t may reason
ably be expected that the interests
OF Pueblo county will be properly
looked after.

STEEL WORKS SPARKS.

The fact that committee from the
steel works is now in Chicago and
Joliet to investigate the scale Of wages
paid at those places has caused scarcely
rifle Of excitement, the general opinion
being that fair compromise will be
arrived at and that the equanimity Of
the Bessemer plant will not be disturb
ed. Good enough.
The iron crane in the converter has
caused some delay this week by break
ing twice but now it is working in good
order. A few weak points must nee
essarily give way under the increased
work but Supt. Grow of this department
says the sooner the better as all will bo
repaired and made stronger al once. No
unnecessary delays are being made.
More men are wanted at the blast
furnaces. Tho wages OF that depart
ment have been raised from 81 60 to 81 10
per day. This was done at the option Of
Supt. @. S. Robinson, no demand for an
increase having been made by the men.
The blast furnace men are among the
hardest worked in the mill and the in-
crease of wages, LIS for tea hours ia a
just one.
Ten additional men were wanted, and
wanted bad at the blast furnace We'd
nesday but could not be had. No ex-
cuse for idling these times.
Thomas Fox, foreman OF the ore roast
ing gang has increased his force. The
platform of the roaster has becn enlarg-
ed admitting OF the unloading of four
flat cars at one time, ten men beng en-
gagged in wheeling the ore INTO the
roaster.
Carpenters are completing the hoist
ing tower to the new ore roastor.
William Preal received u dangerous
scalp wound last Monday. He was
working in the converter when a large
piece OF skull" fell from the OF strik-
ing him on the head and knocking him
down. This skull" is the refuse OF iron
and gathers on the roof in masses, seal
ing off occasionally and making it dan
gerous for the men below. Mr. Preal is
at the hospital and getting along all
right.
Two trusses will be taken from under
the elevated rail road ut No.3 furnace
making % foot span which gives more
room to the bottom filters. The improve
ment will DO good one.
A new furnace for the heating of cold
fteel is being placed in the north end of
the bloom mill. 1t may be also that
il ,ots, hot from the converter will be
thrust into the new furnace. thus saw
ing time and greatly facilitating tho
work in the rail mill.
Foreman Tom Phillips has completed
three new furnaces at the puddle mill
and repaired three others. Lots of i'm
provements going on.
On Wednesday the bar mill common :
ced rolling splice bars out of soft steel
Heretofore the splice bars used for
splicing rail road rails WAS made of iron
but the steel gives better satisfaction.
Supt. I. w. Robinson is diligently
looking after now orders and it looks as
though he would successfully head of
eastern competition. The Besssmer
steel works are destined to be groat.
Fred Darroch and his force of clerks
are glad enough thlt the vast work of
making up the pay roll is off their
hands.
This is pay day and about $50 900 will
be thrown into circulation.

allude TO DR.. Leslie E. Keeley's
Double Chloride If Gold cure for the

This cure has long since passed the
stage Of an experiment; and has become

hat the Government has adopted its
