THE CITY COUNCIL.
An Ordinance Being Prepared
for More Street Paving.
A Homeopathic Sprinkling Wagon
Driver Whose Theory Is Not
Supported by Results.

The city council met last night in
called session to consider, among other
things, petition for an artificial stone
sidewalk on the north side of Washing
ton street between first and Second
avenue.
For the building of this walk the
specifications of Peck Bros. were
adopted and those heretofore in force
were revoked. The city attorney was
directed to prepare the ordinance for
construction to be submitted next Mon
day night.
An ordinance amending the ordinance
granting the Dunbar street railway
franchise was passed. Under the orig
inal or dinance the grantees were re-
quired within three years to build three
miles of track within the corporate
limits. 1t was supposed at that time
that the limits would be extended so as
to take in three miles of that street.
Since the limits have not been entended
it became necessary to extend the time
which is more easily done.
In the matter of the bituminous
street paving on Washington street be-
tween First and Second avenues the
name of P. j. Cole was stricken from
the list of petitioners. P. X. Hickey
was authorized to add to the list the
name of Judge E. W. Wells with twen-
ty-fve more feet frontage.
The contract for painting the hydrants
was awarded to Smith and Branch. The
body of the hvdrant will be painted a
carmine hue and the plugs a dazzling
white so as to more readily disclose
their location amid the rush and hustle
OF fire in the night time.
The subject of street sprinkling came
up on a complaint of taxpayer against
the practice of sprinkling street cros-
sings to the inconvenience of pedes-
trians. His grievance melted away be-
fore the observation OF City Attorney
Israel that Arizonians should be thank
full for opportunities of getting their
feet wet.
This brought out the eccenticities of
one OF the drivers who is a sort of a
homeopathist. The complainant said
he saw him driving along the dusty
street, the eprinkling cart Theoretically
sealed until the wagon reached a muddy
puddle when the valves were thrown
wide open evidently upon the theory,
''similis similibus curantur." Contrary
to his apparent expectation the mud
puddle was bigger and muddier after he
had passed. 1t was also noted that he
sprinkled more assiduously on streets
already saturated with rain.

Oriental Passenger Traffic.

The China-Japan Quarrel Restricts
Oriental Passenger Traffic.
San Francisco, July 30.-The steam
ship Gaelic, from Hong Kong and
Yokohama, brought only twenty-seven
cabin passengers and had but five
whites, fourteen japanese and one
Chinese in the steerage. This is the
first time in the history of the steam
ship service between here and Hong
Kong that so few Chinese have come to
San Francisco.
The explanation is given by the Off
GERS of the Gaelic in the fact that all
atle bodied Cinnamon were detained
pending the outcome of negotiations
that were going on between China and
Japan when the steamer was in Chinese
waters.
A number of merchants and students
wanted to come to San Francisco, but
the Chinese authorities would not issue
them passports. As result of the war
both the Pacific Mail and the Occi-
dental and Oriental companies expect
their steamers to come in the future al
most bare of Chinese passengers.

ADJOURNED.

Both Houses of Congress adjourned to
day, which is the best thing they have
accomplished since their existence under
the present Administration. II such a
joint resolution had been passed months
ago it would have been better for the
country, and better for the dominant
party in the National Legislature. Its
sessions have been ones of turmoil-its
legislative acts were generally of more
harm to the country than good. The
tariff bill passed is not only at war with
the American principle, but is a crude,
blundering enactment that will injure
the party and the President who are
responsible for it, as much as it will harm
the true interests of the country.
The evening herald. [volume] (Shenandoah, Pa.) 1891-1966, 1894-08-28

If the President has decided to play
the baby act and permit the tariff bill to
become law without his signature he
will well deserve the righteous indigna-
tion of the country not only for his
poltroonery, but for the heavy loss which
is accruing every day to the National
Treasury of the revenue which would
come in under the bill when a law, as
well as for the much greater loss inflicted
upon general business by the uncertainty.
The delay has only been profitable to the
Whisky Trust in permitting it time to get
its property out of bond and escape the
payment to the Government later on of
the increased tax Imports of many
articles meanwhile are at standstill
until the bill goes into effect and the
Government as a consequence is not get
ting the money which it needs so badly

Congress and President have surrendered

acted a tariff Of which scarcely one out of

that never in whole history of the coun-
