DAUGHERTY ON SIDEWALKS
He Explains HIS Ideas Regarding
Several Matters of Importance
to San Antonio.


a LIGHT reporter called on Al
derman J. A. Daugherty at his Of
flee this morning, and questioned
him regarding the cheap side
walks which he is advocating, The
reporter said:
II understand you are advOcat-
ing a cheap class Of sidewalks out
side of certain limits. Can you
give me your ideas on the sub
jeCt??"
Certainly" said the alderman.
"Since | have been an alderman,
| have noticed that resolution af-
ter resolution has been passed, or
dering citizens to put down class
A sidewalks, but very few citi
Zens so notified, have complied
with the orders, and taking it up
on myself to go around and ascer-
tain the reason why these people
have failed to comply with the or
derS of the Council,
find that the costs Of
class "A sidewalks are enormous,
and that people who own lots cost
ing from $50 to S4OO, or more, will
not and cannot afford to put down
a sidewalk around such property,
at a cost of from 500 to $500, or in
other words, pay from lStO l9cents
per square foot for such side
walk. Nine times out of ten the
city fails 10 comply with the or.
dinances on such matters, and as a
result, no sidewalks are put down,
making our thriving city Of 10000
inhabitants the poorest 'Sidewalked
town of it's size in the United
States. |, for one, do not believe
in making these citizens pay more
for a sidewalk than their lots cost
Consequently | began to cast
alb out to see II reasonable
walk for the outside district cOulC
not be put down for less money. Sc
far | have found that an excellent
red gravel walk can be laid sil
inches deep with 2x4's, held in pc
sition by cedar posts or staubs, (aE
we used to call them) at about ,.
cents per running foot, or So
for a good red gravel walk I fee
wide and 100 feet long.
"The committee appointed by tn,
mayor for that purpose are investi
eating the matter thoroughly anC
will report fully at the next cOun
Gil meeting. The gravel to be useC
should be of clean, fine pebble
mixed with coarse sand, witt
no mud or sticky substanC
in it. Such material can be had
as we have so far ascertained, a
about Sl.2j per cubic yard, on
cubic yard of which will make )
square feet of sidewalk, inche
deep. In the event Of any one eve
wishing to lay a cament walk a
terward, this class Of gravel wal
would furnish a splendid foundS
ton, otherwise it would answer tn
purpose, at a small cost, of a frs
class sidewalk, and no one cOul
object to the cost.
"Something which would nj
work a hardship on the owners
property should be done by tn
administration for sidewalks

ally succeeded in procuring in the
Indian appropriation bill, just re-
ported to congress, a recognition

ment. The original agreement has
been modified as follows: cat the

the end of three or five years, if
final proof shall be made. Interest

Another County Seat Candi-
date,

County Clerk Jones received a
letter from Corvallis last Saturday
which sprung another candidate
for county seat honors upon all
unsuspecting public. The letter
was written by Dick Irwin, more
commonly known to the old settlers
on the Bay as Marrow Gouge'
Irwin, and was a cross between
request and a demand that Nc
Clane's Point be placed on the Off
cial ballot for county seat honors.
The writer gave as his reason that
a great many men in and around
Corvallis own property at and i'll
the vicinity of said Mechanics point
and that they would like it very
mitch if the people would kindly
locate the county seat atthat place.
The letter further assured Mr.. Jones
that plenty of land would be forth
coming for the location Of county
ETC., if only the people
Of Lincoln county would but be
reasonable enough to locate the
seat at the aforementioned
place. This effectually settles the
county seat racket and removes all
doubt and uncertainty under which
the people have been laboring.
Little hard on the other places that
wanted it, but then we suppose it
had to be.

Our Topeka Letter.

TOPEKA, KANSAS, SEPTEMBER Ii, 1894.
REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE.
We believe our readers will be inter-
ested in learning something Of the
workings Of the three State Central
Committees holding open headquarters
here at the capital Of the state, and we
will impart such information as we
have been able to obtain up to date.
The Democratic headquarters is most
ly q stopping place tor the weary poll
tician Of whatsoever political belief,
who wishes to drop in and spend few
hours in social chat, and general ex.
change Of views. Its main efforts are
directed to solidifying the democratic
party again in the state and get as many
offices as possible out Of the fight which
is, of course, between the Populists and
Republicans. So far it is not making
a very aggressive campaign and 1t Is
not accomplishing much i'll getting
Democrats together. The candidates
nominated at the last state convention
were of the stalWart variety aud those
Democrats who voted with the popu-
lists two years ago, as in their judg-
ment was the best and only thing to do,
have anything but friendly and warm
feeling for the element which went to
Washington, ID. O. and make such I'M
relenting war on them. The commit
tee, as we have said before, is having a
hard time in harmonizing these differ
ences. lii fact, the more it is worked
81, the wider and more bitter is the
fight. It is plain to be seen that the
stalwarts are in favor of putting the
Republicans back in power by persuad'
ing every democrat they can, to vote
for the stalwart nominees.
AT Republican headquarters, the
greatest schemers are the most in de-
mand as councillors Of the committee.
The work Of this committee is devoted
wholly to connecting some sensational
story about the populist officials ana
keeping tab on its speakers. Ii some
republican makes q kick on some OF
their gold bug speeches, the committee
Immediately sends all their speakers a
copy Of the protest with the instructions
to say as little as possible on the money
Question, but pound the Populists. The
candidates started out on the repuoil
can national and state platforms, bu
they we're 50 slippery that they wer'
constantly falling down on it, and IL
their Hopping and scrambling for a 100
hold, fell over onto the populist silver
plank Of sixteen to one where al last &c
counts Maj. Morrill, was painting like
